uare Barcelona fell further behind in the La Liga title race as Atletico Madrid twice came from behind to earn a 2-2 draw at Camp Nou. The stalemate many foreshadowed beforehand was swiftly dashed after Diego Costa deflected Lionel Messi's inswinging corner into his own net after 11 minutes. Atletico had started brightly though, and they were rewarded with a quick equaliser from the penalty spot after Yannick Carrasco breezed past Gerard Pique down the left hand side before being tripped in the...

Manchester United fired a statement of intent to their Premier League rivals with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Brighton. Not only did the Red Devils pick up a crucial three points - against a side they'd never beaten away from home - they did it in some style as well. It was a performance of the highest quality and while the headlines may be dominated by United's generally scintillating display or Bruno Fernandes' brace, the win was the latest reminder that young Mason Greenwood must be a...

Mason Greenwood once again showed on Tuesday during the win over Brighton why he must be starting for Manchester United.

Lead Juventus maintained their four-point lead at the top of Serie A after comfortably dispatching Genoa 3-1 at Luigi Ferraris Stadium. The Old Lady had seen their advantage at the top of the table cut to just a point - after Lazio came from a goal down to win at Torino earlier in the day - but Maurizio Sarri's men were worthy winners against a Rossoblù side looking nervously over their shoulders at the relegation zone. Douglas Costa and Cristiano Ronaldo were both on the scoresheet. As...

Riot A very impressive Manchester United picked up a crucial three points on Tuesday evening, blitzing Brighton 3-0 at the Amex Stadium. It was the away side who settled straight in and dictated play, and they came close to opening the scoring through Bruno Fernandes inside 15 minutes - but his shot from the edge of the box hit the post. However, United did take the lead very soon after as Mason Greenwood fired in beautifully at the near post. BIG performance on the road ?#MUFC #BHAMUN...

From Championship mid-table no man's land and a brief spell in England's third division to one of the Premier League's most threatening new sides, Wolves fans have enjoyed a complete turnaround of fortunes since finding new ownership. Chinese conglomerate Fosun International completed a £45m takeover of the club in July 2016 and wasted no time in transforming their new investment into a well-oiled business that operates on ever-improving results on the football pitch. An immediate changing of...

Forgotten Arsenal midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan has extended his loan spell at Roma until the end of the campaign, with an agreement in place to remain in Serie A next season too. The 31-year-old was shipped off to the Stadio Olimpico at the beginning of the 2019/20 season after failing to make the desired impact at Arsenal, making up one half of the ill-fated swap deal that took Alexis Sanchez to Manchester United. The Armenian hasn't featured as often as he'd like in Rome, but has still made...

Five wins from five since their return. Title rivals in turmoil. Things are looking good for Zinedine Zidane and Real Madrid right now.

For all the talk about the plethora of young talent on show at Chelsea, it's been the performance of arguably their most experienced player that has really helped to set the tone this season - Cesar Azpilicueta. One such young starlet who's burst onto the scene this season is Reece James, yet it has been the Spaniard who Frank Lampard has put most of his trust in this season. It was telling on Sunday afternoon that Chelsea didn't kick into gear until the half-time arrival of their captain - in...

Bayern Munich have agreed a deal with Manchester City for winger Leroy Sané, with the German international expected to complete a move worth up to €60m in the next 24 hours. Sane was destined to make the switch to Bavaria last summer after being underused by Pep Guardiola in Manchester City's title-winning 2018/19 campaign, but the ACL tear he sustained in the Community Shield victory over Liverpool last August thwarted the move. Sane tore his ACL in City's Community Shield victory over...

With speculation linking Manchester City and Kalidou Koulibaly continuing to do the media rounds, there's a real possibility that Napoli's best defender could finally be ready to take the next step in his career.

So, Liverpool are Premier League champions. It feels a little weird to type that, but it's been a long time coming. Some even thought the title race was over in December after their 4-0 win against Leicester, and it would have been wrapped up sooner if not for the global pandemic. After that wearisome Merseyside derby, Liverpool pulled their socks back up and jumped right back into their conventional groove. An emphatic 4-0 win over Crystal Palace pushed them to the finish line, before...

Barcelona offered Jurado a three-year deal that would've been worth €100,000 annually by the end of the contract, with a €200,000 bonus included when he...

'That's football.' After a typically Gallic shrug, that was what Karim Benzema offered as an explanation for his audacious - deep breath - no-look, backheel, nutmeg assist as Real Madrid limped to a 1-0 win at Espanyol. In an otherwise unremarkable contest, Benzema's spark of ingenuity lit up a rather lacklustre performance from the visitors. No-look backheel nutmeg assist.

Chelsea bound Timo Werner has suggested that several top European clubs were chasing his signature before he opted to make the switch to Stamford Bridge. The German rounded off his four-year spell at RB Leipzig with a match-winning brace at Augsburg on Saturday, taking his Bundesliga goalscoring tally up to 28 for the season as Die Roten Bullen finished 16 points behind champions Bayern Munich in third. Werner's final goal in Leipzig goals was a well-taken match-winner against Augsburg at the...
