Vlahovic has continued to excel, but it was clear that Prandelli's departure from Fiorentina was a blow.

That was a very significant sum for a 16-year-old. That sole point taken by Albion of late could yet prove a key one in this WSL title race, coming from a goalless draw with Arsenal's title rivals Chelsea on Sunday. That resulted in another draw, a fifth of the season. Southampton should have had this game won in the first half. Arsenal boss Arteta, speaking ahead of his side's trip to Norwich on Boxing Day, revealed he would have preferred further postponements to fixtures, and shared Henderson's concerns.

Nevertheless, everything righted itself when Corinthians registered a 3-2 win over Cuiaba a day after the release of Red (Taylor's Version).

Immediately at the other end, Di Lorenzo inexplicably passed the ball across his own penalty area where Maddison intercepted before, with the goal at his mercy, letting Napoli off the hook as his shot clipped the outside of a post and went wide.
