Fireworks lit up the night sky before the second half was even over at Anfield on Wednesday. Having been made to wait an extra few months - on top of 30 years - Liverpool fans can be forgiven for getting the party started a little early. It has been an incredible, record-shattering season for the Jurgen Klopp's Reds, who finally got up close and personal with that most coveted piece of silverware, against a backdrop of pyrotechnics and banners. Every player and staff member pictured on the Kop...

Roma starlet Nicolo Zaniolo has emerged as a transfer target for Tottenham although it's unlikely a deal will be struck in the upcoming transfer window. The Italy international recently returned to the Roma first-team squad having suffered an ACL tear in a Serie A clash with Juventus at the start of 2020. He's marked his return with a pair of strikes in barely 100 minutes of action since the restart. Zaniolo scored off the bench in Roma's 6-1 win at SPAL last time out Zaniolo rose to...

If the coronavirus hadn't already made this Championship season particularly 'memorable', the action and drama we've seen on the pitch would certainly have been enough for 2019/20 to live long in the memory of football fans. Leeds finally overcame their promotion hoodoo, no team had been relegated ahead of the final round of fixtures - with ten clubs facing the drop - and Nottingham Forest somehow managed not to make the play-offs, despite having kicked off their final game against lowly Stoke...

The 2019/20 EFL Championship season drew to a close on Wednesday night when all 24 of the biggest clubs in Britain completed the 46-game campaign, which lasted a full 355 days from its 2 August kickoff. By the time the playoff final is contested, the campaign – which was halted in late March for three months as a result of the coronavirus pandemic – will have lasted a year and two days. One can only hope there is never another season like it. Leeds won the Championship title to secure a place...

Utd David Moyes and Michail Antonio have explained why the latter took West Ham's penalty against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Wednesday evening. The Hammers' usual penalty taker and captain Mark Noble was on the pitch when Paul Pogba blocked Declan Rice's free kick with his hands to gift the away side a spot kick, which Antonio duly converted. The game finished 1-1 after Mason Greenwood equalised for the Red Devils, but the result means West Ham are now safe from relegation. Pogba...

Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge has fired a warning to Liverpool, insisting that Thiago Alcantara, who has recently crowned 90min's best deep lying playmaker in the world, will not be sold on the cheap this summer. Thiago has just one year remaining on his current deal and has already indicated that he wants to depart the Bundesliga champions in the summer, and Liverpool have been strongly linked with a deal that some reports have claimed could cost the Reds as little as £22m....

So There was a look of anger and frustration etched across the face of Christian Pulisic as he attempted to dig Chelsea out of yet another hole against Liverpool on Wednesday. It may not have been anger at not starting the match as much as it was anger at the scoreline, seeing as it so often falls to Chelsea's attacking sparks to dig their wobbly defence and goalkeeper out of those holes. Chelsea were floundering at 3-0 down and looked vulnerable every time Liverpool surged into their half....

Leroy Sané let slip that Chelsea may have already secured a deal for Bayer Leverkusen star Kai Havertz, during his first press conference as a Bayern Munich player. Sané recently completed a €45m switch from Manchester City to Bayern, a deal he had desired for some time. Kai Havertz is one of the most sought after players in the world Die Roten are currently preparing for their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Chelsea next month and although he is not available for the tie, the...

Leeds United have defended their controversial decision to hold an open-bus title celebration outside Elland Road. The curtain came down on the Whites' season with a 4-0 home win over Charlton on Wednesday with the club already confirmed as Championship winners some time prior. Leeds fans congregated outside Elland Road on Wednesday night Despite club officials urging supporters to stay away from Elland Road, thousands gathered outside Leeds' stadium to celebrate the club's return to the top...

Newcastle United will reportedly attempt to lure Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson to St. James' Park if the Cherries suffer relegation from the Premier League this season. Wilson is Bournemouth's top goal scorer this campaign with eight in the top flight, but Eddie Howe's side go into the final day of the season sitting 19th in the table, three points adrift of Aston Villa and Watford. Wilson scored in Bournemouth's last game before lockdown, the opener in a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool...

There are some Premier League players who feel like they've been around forever, others who burst on to the scene late in their careers, and then there are the players who you just totally forgot about. Everyone has that moment when they're looking through another team's lineup and they see a name that makes them go 'really?'. Here is a list of 10 players who give you that feeling, that are still playing in the Premier League. 1. Phil Jagielka Jagielka returned to his boyhood club last summer...

Newcastle United have launched their new Puma home kit for the 2020/21 season, which will be worn for the first time on Sunday when the Magpies conclude the current Premier League campaign at St James’ Park against new champions Liverpool. Compared to the thick-striped 2019/20 jersey, the new release incorporates much thinner black and white stripes. But it still retains the classic Newcastle look and will be paired with black shorts and black socks, the latter of which will also feature a...

France Football have announced that the Ballon d'Or will not be awarded this year, and we at 90min think that is a damn shame. Obviously the pandemic's disruption of the football calendar is a fairly fair reason as to why it's not being handed out, but still, we feel sorry for big Robert Lewandowski. The guy who has scored (roughly) a trillion goals in 2020. He deserves a ball-shaped prize for that. So, as some sort of consolation prize for Lewa, 90min's editorial team have decided to do our...

k 38 Almost a year removed from when most of us were conjuring up initial FPL drafts at a frightening rate, the conclusion of the 2019/20 Premier League Fantasy Football campaign is finally upon us. In a season full of hasty wildcards, dilly dallying over the use of the bench boost and wondering how the f*ck one can even surpass the 100-point mark in a single gameweek, there's just one final push in a bid for some to claim FPL bragging rights. It's been a slog, but we're nearly there....

Mason Greenwood played his 50th game for Manchester United this week, marking the occasion with another goal as he continues a sensational breakout season. The 18-year-old now has 17 goals to show for those 50 appearances, an impressive tally that could yet grow by the time the 2019/20 campaign comes to an end. Here’s a look at how Greenwood compares to six currently active superstars and one still active Manchester United legend at the same stage of their respective careers, 50 games in....

It's 11 April 2017 and Juventus are lining up against Barcelona for their leg at home in the Champions League quarter finals. Coming off their famous 'La Remontada' 6-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain, La Blaugrana were viewed as the most potent team in the world. Their famed 'MSN' front trio of Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez and Neymar were all in form, while their opponents had laboured past Porto in the last 16. Yet by the end of the night, the Catalans were the goalless team, with their stars...

After 30 years of hurt, Liverpool fans finally saw the reality of the image that some had been dreaming of for decades. Manchester City's 2-1 defeat at Chelsea at the end of June confirmed the Reds as Premier League champions for the first time and although their stuttering form post-title confirmation meant they weren't able to break the Citizens' 100-point single-season record, there's no doubting Jurgen Klopp's ruthless machine will go down as one of the finest outfits in memory. Following...

There is a fair share of footballers in the current age who make a considerably healthy living to kick a ball around some grass. Equally, there are a decent few at the very top earning a king's ransom to sit on their backsides and just watch people kick a ball around some grass. Dream job, eh? In most of these players' cases, it's no fault of their own. Either they're not fancied by managers that had nothing to do with bringing them to the club, they've struggled with fitness, or there's...

It's the 91st minute of Wednesday's clash between Chelsea and Liverpool. The Reds are already 5-3 up and pushing for a sixth as they prepare to take a free kick on the edge of Chelsea's penalty area. A cross comes drifting across the six-yard box at the perfect height for a goalkeeper, but nothing happens. The ball ends up at the back post, where a stunned Virgil van Dijk is caught off guard so much that he can't keep his shot down. And what do we hear? Very rare pic of 6 players begging Kepa...

News Antonio Conte's Inter are expected to get back to winning ways when they face relegation-threatened Genoa at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris on Saturday evening. Il Biscione's draw with Fiorentina on Wednesday effectively handed Juventus the title, with the Old Lady only needing a win against Udinese to secure their ninth straight Scudetto. Inter's title challenge has effectively been over for a while though, with inconsistent results proving to be their undoing. That has very much been the case...
