Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United to be difficult to beat, as they aim to build on their opening-day win over Fulham against Brighton on Saturday.

Joshua Zirkzee made a mark on his United debut, scoring a late winner in a 1-0 win over the Cottagers to snatch three points.

It followed an up-and-down pre-season which finished with a penalty shootout defeat to Manchester City in the Community Shield.

Ten Hag has laid out high ambitions for the season and, with a team they have struggled against in recent years next up, he is keen to get United s style of play nailed down early on to set the tone for the campaign.

The project is about building, working and constructing, Ten Hag told SuperSport.

We talk also about what we want to achieve, and we …

Thousands of supporters of the Spanish national team have vowed to shave their heads if their side wins the Euro 2008 football championship.

Spanish sports daily Marca has been urging fans to sign an online petition promising to go bald if Spain wins the title and as of Tuesday night just over 10,000 people have made the pledge, the newspaper said on its website.

I, an unrepentant lifelong fan, solemnly commit myself before Marca, the fans and the national team, to shave every last hair on my Spanish head if our team wins Euro 2008, the online pledge reads.

The team needs all the support it can get from its fans, the newspaper wrote on its website over a photo of a group of bald fans wearing red and yellow Spain jerseys with their arms in the air.

Barcelona have reclaimed the LaLiga title after a dominant x-x victory over struggling Deportivo La Coruna secured the crown for Ernesto Valverde s side.

Having already clinched the Copa del Rey with a 5-0 thrashing of Sevilla, Barca made light work of Deportivo at the Riazor on Sunday to clinch the title with four games of a marvellous campaign in which they have yet to lose to spare.

There was a slight blip in mid-season, allowing Atletico Madrid to close the gap, but a 1-0 victory at Camp Nou courtesy of a stunning Lionel Messi free-kick all but ended the title race.

It marks a fantastic debut season in charge of the Blaugrana for former Athletic Bilbao boss Valverde, who arrived to little fanfare last May, with Barca securing their first title since 2014-…

Jack Wilshere is determined to deliver the EFL Cup for Arsenal on Sunday, as he still holds painful memories of their 2010-11 final defeat to Birmingham City.

Arsenal were huge favourites ahead of the Wembley decider seven years ago, but Obafemi Martins 89th-minute winner following a mix-up between Wojciech Szczesny and Laurent Koscielny secured an unlikely Blues win.

Wilshere, who played in that match, is now hoping to go one better against Premier League leaders Manchester City in a competition Arsene Wenger has never won.

In 2011, we were expected to win and I was convinced we were going to win and come home with silverware, he told Sky Sports.

I think it helps as you grow up in football. You get more experience in these [situations]. I know we didn …

The NFC South’s 1-0 teams will collide on Sunday in Week 2, with Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers heading to the Big Easy to take on the New Orleans Saints.

Brady and Tampa strolled past a lethargic Cowboys outfit last week to begin their final ride together with a win, while New Orleans required a little Jameis magic — and an ugly Atlanta collapse — to put its hated rivals to bed.

The Buccaneers vs. Saints should be an excellent game between two well-rounded teams — check out our best NFL player prop picks for Tampa and New Orleans, ahead of Week 2.

The Aaron Rodgers era officially begins for the New York Jets on Monday night against the Buffalo Bills. It may not be a long era, but combining the future Hall-of-Famer with the already potent Jets defense could be a recipe for success in New York.

The Rodgers signing was the biggest move of the NFL offseason. We didn’t get to see much of the new quarterback in the preseason, but what we did see of Rodgers was impressive enough, and Week 1 odds feature a variety of Aaron Rodgers-related markets for their Week 1 tilt against Buffalo.

You can see how I’m betting on the Jets quarterback as we examine the MNF odds in my free NFL picks below.

While the Seattle Seahawks are just one game back of the San Francisco 49ers in the division, NFL Week 12 odds have the red and gold as seven-point road favorites. A large reason why has to be Kyle Shanahan’s X-factor… Christian McCaffrey.
