That dwarfs previous spending on a sport that has failed to respond to the investment. The International Monetary Fund put the country's economic output at about $160 billion last year – meaning one in every 400 of those dollars financed football. Hungary has hosted the 2017 World Aquatics Championships as well as a number of other international sports events and some see Orban's efforts as part of a 'soft power' approach.

Spurs rattled five goals past Bournemouth at the weekend in their most impressive performance since Jose Mourinho's appointment, though any momentum gained from that emphatic victory over the Cherries will count for little if the Portuguese manager make sweeping changes to his team.
What is the background?Premier League clubs previously said they would ask players to take a 30% pay cut in order to protect jobs. However, the Professional Footballers' Association said such a cut could harm the NHS, adding players were "mindful of their social responsibilities". Speaking to BBC Sport earlier on Wednesday, former England striker and Match of the Day pundit Alan Shearer said it should be up to the players to decide the best way to help.
Meanwhile, Club America's path to the final was not quite as convincing but all that matters is that they are here and have thus far met the big expectations on them. Indeed, America needed to come from behind both against Tigres in the quarter-final and Morelia in the semi-final but managed to do so in ties that were packed full of drama.
We were allowed one phone call a week. I'd be talking to my wife and she'd be saying, "What are you getting up to? You are out drinking every night" and so on. It was so far from the truth. The biggest story written about us over there was that three of us had been held up against a fence at gunpoint with two security guards going to shoot us because we'd broken a curfew. I think it was myself, Derek Johnstone and wee Joe Harper.

See alsoMathcast: Tottenham Hotspur v Olympiacos After Jose Mourinho saw his side look superb in the first half against West Ham, they started awfully and were lucky as half time approached to be just two down through a fantastic 25-yard strike from Youseff El Arabi and a close-range strike from Ruben Semedo following terrible defending from a corner.
They are arrogant and irresponsible: they only think about their economic interests and the cups. But, for the Italian championship, UEFA decides that, to resume, it must end by June? “Are we going to play every other day? Or does UEFA also have the power to stretch their days and make them 72 hours long? “If you want to do something with UEFA's profits, send oxygen cylinders and respirators to Brescia.
Preston are at the moment, they sit third in the table. However, they have had their problems in recent weeks. The visitors make this trip to the Welsh capital with four defeats in their last six games, which has left them 10 points shy of second place. With their away form troubling them in recent months, the visitors should be worried ahead of their meeting with the Bluebirds.
For once I can't argue - it did what it was there to do. Harry Wilson, who inexplicably raised two hands to block a header, must have breathed a huge sigh of relief when Ramsdale saved Danny Ings' spot-kick. Ramsdale made another great save from Nathan Redmond but, in Bournemouth's desperation to get an equaliser, the inevitable happened and Southampton sealed the game. This fixture would have been out of sight had it not been for the Cherries keeper.

Meanwhile, Krylya Sovetov drew 1-1 at home with Orenburg and won 1-0 at Rubin Kazan's yard.

It got to the stage that I was told to tell the players they were getting their P45s,” said John O’Brien. In early February, Liam had to meet the players to tell them they were free agents. From the players’ point of view, it came as an absolute shock. Ger O’Brien, now director of football at St Patrick’s Athletic, said: “On 10 February, and I know this because it’s the day my daughter was born, we were called into a meeting and told ‘lads, we’ve just been told to wind up the club’.

Yet it is Tottenham's Premier League position, not their Champions League campaign, that Mourinho will be judged on at the end of the season, and Saturday's game gives Spurs a chance to nudge above Chelsea into the top four. That would be quite a feat. When he took over Tottenham were languishing in the bottom half of the table, 12 points behind Frank Lampard's side.
Liverpool are 13 points clear at the top of the Premier League and unbeaten in that competition for a calendar year. Their FA Cup record isn't so good though with early exits and the last time they played an FA Cup tie in April was in 2015. Leaving out key players is the cause and that will of course happen again this weekend.
The FA want to reduce the maximum number of non-homegrown players permitted in 25-man squads from 17 to 13. Masters said there was agreement between the Premier League and the FA over their aims but not how to best move forward. We want the Premier League to still bring the best players from around the world and we want the system to be able to provide more and better quality players for the England team,” he said.
They did have chances. Deeney took too long to try to profit from a ridiculous early mix-up in the home defence, and Luke Shaw snuffed out the chance. Abdoulaye Doucoure also forced a decent save out of David de Gea when the game was still goalless. There was also the obligatory chant against VAR - in front of watching referee's chief Mike Riley - after Deeney's 'equaliser' was ruled out, although the handball decision given against defender Craig Dawson as he met the corner that preceded the goal was automatic under the current regulations.
Tottenham forward Son Heung-min begins a three-game ban after the club failed with an appeal against the red card he received in Sunday's defeat by Chelsea.

Ajax youngster Noa Lang became the first player to score a hat-trick on their league debut for the club in 60 years as the leaders fought back from two goals down to beat FC Twente.

This was a match played at a low intensity, with both sets of players seemingly suffering from a lack of energy throughout. Had the stands been packed with fans, it’s difficult to envisage that this would have been the case. MAN OF THE MATCH - Omer Bayram (Galatasaray) He was only on the pitch for 45 minutes, introduced at the break for Younes Belhanda, but Omer Bayram came as close as anyone to making the difference for Galatasaray.
Hull head coach Grant McCann:"Jarrod is a top player, his first goal was an excellent finish. His second was one he has done on numerous occasions for Hull. Jarrod has real determination to be the best he can be. He has everything about him to be the Championship's top scorer. What will be will be, we are delighted to have him. We just want him to continue enjoying his football here. We will get games like that this season where we don't look our best.
I saw Gary Neville saying something about players would play games every day for nine days if they had to when the football season eventually resumes. Well, I think Gary is quite right in a certain way because Gary’s quite old school in his way of thinking. He would, I would.

However, the hosts have highly variable results. They are not convincing team. They have only 1 victory in their last 5 matches. In any case, I think, this will not be an easy task. Also, we have Hapoel Ashkelon who's is a poor team in the last matches. Of course, the visitors have a very difficult task. In any case, they will try to break the poor series. My pick - Ashkelon to win.
He's 18 and of course he will get better. He is a natural footballer and has been in the academy since he was a little boy. His dad showed me a picture of us together when he was seven.
