case ports led the way but now some of Europe's top football leagues are back
including the English Premier League our sports editor Paul neat is back in the
studio this week hello there Paul's the Premier League is back after a long wait
it is indeed yes the Premier League returned on Wednesday local time with a
couple of games in hand with blacklivesmatter on the back of their
shirts rather than the players names Aston Villa drew nil-nil at home to
Sheffield United and Manchester City beat Arsenal three nil after these two
matches were played it now means that all 20 teams have played 29 matches and
so the leakin can restart in full over the course of this weekend well the
return of EPL means their Korean fans will be able to see sanam in play again
that's right indeed yes so no means back he had this break to kind of allow
himself to get back to full fitness as you know he he fractured his arm earlier
this year and returned to Korea for some treatment and but yeah he is back and
thanks to him and Harry Kane supposed his frontline will be reinforced they
were experiencing some injury concerns before the breaks for the time that
elapses has really helped them so who's playing this weekend and where can fans
watch them well Tottenham they have a huge game
first back they take on Manchester United that's at 8:50 p.m. UK time but
4:15 a.m. here in South Korea the game is live on sport TV here in South Korea
and both teams are really having a full-tilt European Champions League
qualification United sitting v Tottenham are 8th there's only four points
separating these two teams so a win for either team will be huge for the UCL
qualification right so Tottenham will be particularly keen to pick up a win if
fit place is enough to qualify for the Champions League that's right yes this
year fifth place is enough because Manchester City were handed a two-year
ban because of breaching Financial Fair Play regulations they have appealed BIST
ban but if it is upheld that means that Spurs if they finished fifth could
qualify for next season's Champions League which could help financially help
keep some of their top stars that's right now cross the
I hear the MLS is Judah's restart but then rather at a rather interesting
venue if you will yes Major League Soccer is set to restart on July the 8th
and all games in play that the Walt Disney World Resort Sports Complex
there'll be a World Cup style tournament and group stages and knockouts and that
kind of thing and Korean international Hwang embalm he plays for Vancouver

Charles Schwab a challenge recently to become the highest ranking Asian player
in the world climbing to 21st now Paul what to look forward to in the key
league this weekend in the k-league world
FC Seoul have had a really difficult start to the season they've lost four in
a row that's the worst record there they've ever had and they take on Ulsan
at home as you know all Sun I've had a very good start to the season they are
still unbeaten they have the best attack in the league so I'll have the worst
defense in the league so that game it's going to be to see how the the two
coaches approach it particularly chang-soo he's undoing a little bit of
let's say a pressure from the fans because of this poor start to the season
all right we'll look forward to that thank you for that Paul and we will see
you again next time thank you
