Football
Who knew wecould miss 22 men kicking a ball about so much? It’s not all doom and gloom,though, with action from Argentina, Chile, Bahrain and the Turkish Super Lig takingplace this evening.
Goztepe AS v Caykur Rizespor is the highlight. And while you may not be too familiar with the teams, you’ll recognise a certain Cameron Jerome. The ex-Norwich City man is 21/10 to score anytime for Goztepe.
