Comprehensive list starts here......
FRIDAY
Thursday in ICELAND - Snuck in here from Thursday - Dion Acoff went 90 for Valur as they beat visitors IA 3 - 1 in the Iceland League Cup (Group 3) Valur win the group with a perfect 5 - 0 - 0 record and move into the play-offs
Will Daniels left Grindavik's game at Stjarnan after 10 minutes (Injury?) but Grindavik went on to draw 2 - 2 without their top scorer in the Iceland League Cup (Group 4) Grindavik finished tied 1st - 2nd on GD and progress to the Play-offs.
Selfoss and JC Mack have qualified for the Iceland League Cup Play-offs. They currently lead (Group 2) by 3 points but KR Reykjavik have a game left to play and could tie Selfoss (probably taking the #1 spot on GD)
OK Friday for real......
AC Horsens is fighting for its survival in Denmark's Superliga, today GK Steve Clark registered a Shut-out (8 saves) and Conor O'Brien went 81' in a goalless draw at home with Odense. Not a particularly good result, but a point is a point at this stage. The end of season relegation season is now officially started. There are 2 groups - Group 1 Randers, Horsens, Odense & Esbjerg. Group 2 Aalborg, Silkeborg, Aarhus & Viborg.
In Germany's Regionalliga (Nord) Ashton Gotz (90 + yellow card) and Hamburg II won their match up with VfB Lubeck 1 - 0 moving them into 5th place (but way to far behind leaders Meppen to make any difference)
Jerome Kiesewetter watched from the bench as Dusseldorf lost their home match against 1860 Munich 0 - 1 in Germany 2Liga
Joel Sonora went 90 in Stuttgart II 3 - 1 defeat at Elversberg in Regionalliga (Sudwest)

John Brooks went 90 as Hertha fall 1 - 3 at home to Hoffenheim in Bundesliga. Hertha have now lost 2 straight and have slipped to 5th, with FC Koln 3 points behind and a game in hand - Hertha need some points or they could find themselves out of European competition next year
Jordan Siebatcheu started for Chateauroux as they hosted Beziers losing this one 1 - 2 in France's National League. The loss drops them from 2nd to 3rd place in the league.
In Netherlands Eerste Division, Gedion Zelalem came off the bench for Venlo at minute 76, but that didn't help, as visitors NAC Breda and Shane O'Neill (49) had little trouble today handling the league leaders, who have taken their foot off the pedal, 0 - 4. Venlo are still top by a ways, and NAC Breda are now in 6th Place tied with 3 other teams (which in an open Eerste Division promotion post season would make them 1 of 8 teams in a play-off spot)
A lively Lynden Gooch went 88' as Sunderland U23 won 0 - 1 at Norwich U23 to reach the Premier League International Cup Final, where they will face off with FC Porto. Lyndon hit the bar in the first half and caused Norwich U23 all kinds of problems
Cordt Andreas Flätgen got 7 minutes at the end of a game that saw Neunkirchen lose 3 - 0 at Wiesbach in Oberliga (Rheinland-Pfalz/Saar)
Oscar Ortiz went 90 in SC Feucht's 3 - 0 loss at Vfl Frohnlach in Oberliga (Bayern Nord)

Shawn Barry went 90, picked up a yellow, as FSV Frankfurt visited Fortuna Koln and snagged a point in a goalless draw in 3Liga. FSV really needed 3 points as they struggle in the bottom 3, but a point is better than nothing
Joe Gyau (86), unused sub GK David Yelldell and Sonnenhof visited Paderborn in 3Liga and came away with a 1 - 2 win - good to see Joe Gyau starting regularly for Sonnenhof

Terence Boyd was an unused sub as Darmstadt fall 4 - 0 at RB Leipzig in Bundesliga. 2Liga next season for Darmstadt without doubt
A 92nd minute goal gave Bobby Wood (90 + Assist) and Hamburg a 2 - 1 win over FC Koln in Bundesliga. Hamburg move out of the bottom 3, but are still in trouble, but digging out of the hole with no loses in last 4 (3w 1d)
Christian Pulisic got a few minutes at the end of Dortmund's 1 - 1 draw at Schalke in Bundesliga. Dortmund missed the chance to go 3rd in the league, remain in 4th.

Tim Ream came off the bench in the 93rd minute as a time waster, as Fulham did well, at Rotherham winning this one 0 - 1 in England's Championship and moving into 6th place (the last promotional play-off spot)
Torquay's defense did not help GK Brendan Moore, giving up a red card in the first half as they fall 0 - 1 at home to Chester in England's National League. Torquay are 1 point away from safety, so today's result really hurt
Kristian Scott went 90 for Nuneaton as they draw 1 - 1 at Stockport - a good away point for Nuneaton in England's National League (North)
Jon-Paul Pittman went 90 in Harrogate's 3 - 2 loss at Tamworth in England's National League (North)
Danijal Brkovic Scored a 90th minute tying goal in a thrilling comeback performance by Celik Zenica in Bosnia's Premier League (Relegation Group) in a 3 - 3 draw with #2 Mladost DK. It looks pretty certain that Celik will be relegated, but this game I am sure their fans will remember

Emerson Hyndman (90) for Rangers as they are held at home by lowly Motherwell to a 1 - 1 draw in Scotland's Premier League. If Rangers want to succeed they must win home games against lesser competition!!

Along with Peterhead, Stenhousemuir are the other team headed for League Two in Scotland. Mason Robertson (90) is getting the opportunity to play regularly - but needs to score if he want's to continue. Today Steny visited Stranraer and lost 3 - 0.
In Sweden's Superettan, GK Matt Pyzdrowski gets the Shut-out as Helsingborg starts a new new season with a home win 1 - 0 over Trelleborgs

Julian Ceesay (90) in FC Amberg's 4 - 2 win over Alemannia Haibach in Oberliga (Bayern Nord)

Kene Eze started for North Geelong Warriors as they suffer a horrid 8 - 0 defeat at the hands of Heidelberg United in Australia's NPL (Victoria)
Alex De John played the first half of Dalkurd's goalless draw at home against Brommapojkarna in their opener in Sweden's Superettan (no sign of Andrew Stadler yet)

Timothy Chandler (90 + yellow - will miss next game) and Frankfurt were held at home by M'Gladbach in a Goalless Draw (Fabian Johnson out with thigh injury)
Danny Williams (90 + yellow) and Reading beat Leeds 1 - 0 in England's Championship, a team Reading could face in a post-season promotion match-up. League positions flip-flop today
Aaron Schoenfeld was a 2nd half sub for M. Tel Aviv as they lost 1 - 0 at leaders H. Beer Sheva in the Ligat ha'Al (Championship Group). M. Tel Aviv are pretty much set for a Europa League spot - they are 6 points out of 1st place and a UCL place
Kyrian Nwabueze started on the bench for Shirak as they fall 0 - 2 at home to Pyunik in Armenia's Premier Division
Ismar Tandir started for FK Sloboda as they traveled to Zeljeznicar in Bosnia Premier League (Championship Group). The game was a lot closer than the score tells, as Sloboda mounted a comeback at 3 - 0 down, to make it 3 - 2, before an ET goal nailed the coffin. Sloboda are in 5th spot in their effort to reach European football next season - right now it looks unlikely
In a match-up of #1 vs #2, Joshua Perez started for 2nd place Fiorentina U19 as they beat up on Lazio U19 5 - 2 in Italy's Primavera (Group A)
SUNDAY
Matt Miazga (90) in Vitesse 2 - 1 win over Nijmegen in Netherlands Eredivisie. Vitesse maintain their 5th place. League spots 4 - 7 will play-off at the end of the season for a European place. The points difference make it impossible for any of these teams to catch 3rd place PSV
Tim Tillman (90) in Bayern U19 4 - 2 win over Augsburg U19 in Junior Bundesliga (Süd/Südwest)....Bayern lead the league by 3 points
Julian Green went 68 in Stuttgart's 3 - 3 draw with Dresden in Germany's 2Liga. There are now 3 teams claiming #1 spot (50 points) with Stuttgart ahead on GD - very very close run up to the ens of the season, and promotion to Bundesliga
Having Perry Kitchen (90) back as Captain, and Bjorn Johnsen (90) attacking for Hearts, could not negate the power of Celtic who stroll to a 0 - 5 drubbing of their 5th place opponent. Hearts wobble continues with only 1 win and 4 losses over the past 5. Hearts should still make a post season appearance in the Championship Group, but will have to find their earlier form again to achieve a European spot next season
Sammy Adjai played the 2nd half for Naestved as they drew 0 - 0 with Nykobing in Denmark's 1st Division

Ryan Finley went 83 minutes as Varnamo started their Superettan season with a rousing 4 - 0 win over Atvidabergs in Sweden's 2nd tier
GK Ethan Horvath, still has not played a meaningful game for Club Brugge in Belgium Jupiler League. Today he sat on the bench for the opener of the Post Season Championship Group (that settles European places) and watch as his team lost 2 - 1 to Gent. Club Brugge are in 2nd in the group, behind Anderlecht, and still in a UCL place.
GK Alex Horwath sat on the bench for Brann, as they visited Tromso in their Norway Eliteserien season opener. The game ended in a 1 - 1 draw when Tromso scored in the 90th minute
Nermin Crnkic went 77 minutes as Sarajevo held on for a 1 - 1 draw at home with Radnik Bijeljina in the Bosnian Premier League Championship Group. Sarajevo would have really benefited from a win, but still hold #3 spot, which gets them into Europa League. Of Note.....both goals came in the first 2 minutes of the game.
