Wayne Rooney: Plymouth ‘nowhere near good enough’ in Cardiff loss

Netherlands Under-21 winger Cissoko was sent off for violent conduct towards Perry Ng.

The Cardiff City defender kicked the ball at Cissoko while he was on the ground after being fouled and he reacted angrily.

The straight red card means he will miss the next three matches against Millwall, Preston North End and Leeds United.

“He’s reacted. Their player’s been quite clever and very dangerous, I feel,” Rooney said.

“He

Sheffield Wednesday 4-0 Plymouth Argyle: Wayne Rooney’s tenure at Argyle starts with heavy loss

By Total Football News

The second half began with Bannan having two shots blocked as Wednesday continued to boss the game.

They got a deserved second goal as Nathanael Ogbeta failed to stop Jamal Lowe rising up to head Gassama’s cross on to Galloway’s head and past the helpless Hazard.

Gassama should have made it 3-0 two minutes later, but his poor effort at the back post hit the side-netting following a good cross

The ease with which their team have leaked goals – conceding

Burnley 1-4 Newcastle: Vincent Kompany’s side ‘doomed’ after loss

By Total Football News

Burnley’s spirits were high following a run of one defeat in their last eight games, dragging back a deficit of 11 points as recent as March to just two before kick-off on Saturday.

At 0-0, news filtered through from Bramall Lane that Forest had fallen 1-0 behind at already-relegated Sheffield United, but it was the only cheer of another dismal performance.

Kompany’s side had been much improved but put in
