Not a very exciting Saturday, there seem to be so many US players injured or missing from teams right now. Terrence Boyd has another surgery, Rubio Ruben still out, along with those below, makes me feel like there won't be much to write about, but if you delve into the lower leagues there is action going on.(as usual the wrap is by match time)..
Josh Doughty is on the bench again today for Man United's U21s as they visited Manchester City in the EPL U21. Final: City 1 - United 0
DeVante Parker started went 90 (+2) in Mainz II win over Stuttgart II in Germany 3Liga
David Spies started, played 90, for Augsburg II as they beat up on Ingolstadt II 4 - 1 in Regionalliga Bayern
Robbie Kristo was in the 18, did not play, for Tuttocuoio in their Italy Lega Pro (Group B) home game 1 - 2 loss to Pisa
In Bundesliga, John Brooks (90) and Hertha are still without a win since the Winter Break,and just about holding on to 3rd place, with a 1 - 1 draw with Wolfsburg
No Alfredo Morales at Bundesliga's Ingolstadt - Injury - as they beat Bremen - without Aaron Jóhannsson- also injured - 2 - 0
Fabian Johnson started went 90 for M'Gladbach as they beat fellow Bundesliga side Koln 1 - 0. The win moves (at least temporarily) M'Gladbach to 5th spot (only 5 points separate 3 thru 8)
GK, Paul Rachubka, took his usual position on the bench, as Bolton drew 1 - 1 with visitors QPR
Fulham, won their home game with Charlton 3 - 0 without Tim Ream (sick) or Emerson Hyndman (in 18, did not play)
Duane Holmes is tearing it up in Huddersfield U21, so he was not in their senior squad today, for their 1 - 0 win over Wolves
GK Cody Cropper was in the 18, but did not play as MK Don's lost their home game v Bristol City 0 - 2
Lynden Gooch in his last game with Doncaster (unless he extends (unlikely) this was his last game) came off the bench at the 82 min in a 0 1 loss to Barnsley
All reports seem to agree that Gboly Ariyibi just 'killed it' in Chesterfield's home game with Crewe. Gboly created chance after chance for his team mates and was rewarded with an assist on the 2nd (an ultimately winning) goal, as Chesterfield came away 3 - 1 winners
Shane O'Neill was in the 18 again for Cambridge, and again did not play - patience - as Cambridge went on to win 3 - 1 over York
Grimsby were down 3 goals before Jon-Paul Pittman came on for the 2nd half. Grimsby rallied late but fell short, losing 4 - 2 at Halifax
In the FA Cup, Danny Williams was a spectator today, following a knock. Reading didn't seem to miss a step and beat EPL side West Bromwich 3 - 1 to advance to the next round
In Scotland's League One (3rd tier) Kevin Dzierzawski posted 90 minutes for Peterhead as they made it 4 wins and 1 draw in the last 5, and cemented their 2nd spot in the league, by beating Cowdenbeath 2 - 3 away from home
In Finland, Brian Span came off the bench at the 64th minute as Mariehamn beat PK-35 in the Finland League Cup (their 1st win in the tournament)
In Italy Lega Pro (Group A) 19 year old Douglas Bentley came off the bench for his new club, AlbinoLeffe, early (18) replacing an injured midfielder. Ultimately AlbinoLeffe lost the game 1 - 0 to Pavia who are in 6th place in a tight race for the league promotional playoffs
No surprise that Tim Howard was on the bench for Everton's 0 -2 win at Bournemouth in the FA Cup. Tim is getting over an injury and has lost his starting position - which Martinez say's he must win back.
DeSevio Payne went 90 for Groningen as they visited AZ Alkmaar (3rd place/won last 5) and got beat badly 4 - 1
Finally, in a friendly in Finland Jaro MF Kyle Curinga, who recently joined from GBK scored (I believe) Jaro's 4th goal as they beat SJK 5 - 2
Hopefully Sunday will bring some goals - be back then
