    The German FA will not take action against Jadon Sancho and other Bundesliga players who displayed anti-racism messages following the death of George Floyd.

    Dortmund and England winger Sancho, along with Marcus Thuram, Achraf Hakimi and Weston McKennie all could have faced sanctions for their reactions to George Floyd's death in Minneapolis.

    Plain common sense I would have thought from the German FA.

    Nine people at six Championship clubs have tested positive for Covid-19 in the latest round of testing.

    Preston and Sheffield Wednesday have confirmed they each have one person who returned a positive test.

    It comes after 10 positive tests in England's second tier and seven in League Two on Saturday.

    Not just in football, but we should be calling for true racial equality in all aspects of society. 60 years ago I stood against rascists and I haven't changed my opinion.

    Sad to hear the death of MOTD 2 presenter Mark Chapman's wife - only aged 44.

    Wondered why he hadn't been on 5live for the past few weeks.

    A good presenter on the TV and radio.

    A personal tragedy for him.

    Thought I would have a look at the Villa game. Have a stream from Monte Carlo. They have fans from England on their computers going ooh and arh whenever there is goal mouth action. It is very odd.

    Is the VAR not being used, or even goal-line technology? I thought that was a clear goal for Sheffield Utd...

    Maybe no VAR. Ref kept pointing at his wrist. I have no sound, so don't know what is being said. Is this PL football? Not very good so far.

    Slow Mo in French suggests it didn't go over the line.
