Liverpool 3-1 Wolves: Reds denied title on final day despite comeback win

Liverpool were denied the Premier League title and an unprecedented quadruple on the final day of the season, despite coming from behind to beat Wolves 3-1 at Anfield.

Jurgen Klopp s men trailed to an early Pedro Neto goal, before Sadio Mane equalised, with Mohamed Salah and Andrew Robertson belatedly scoring to seal three points.

With Manchester City trailing Aston Villa 2-0 while Wolves were holding Liverpool, there was hope among the home fans, but that was soon extinguished as Pep Guardiola s City came back to win 3-2 and clinch the title.

This was a disappointing blow for the Reds, although they can still win their third trophy of the season on Saturday when they face Real Madrid in the Champions League final in Paris.

Thank you for your brilliant su…

Prediction: Arsenal vs Manchester City

Prediction: Both Teams to Score and Manchester City to Win

Odds:

Bookmaker:

Caretaker Arsenal boss Freddie Ljungberg will be aiming to earn another morale-boosting Premier League win on Sunday as the Gunners take on Manchester City.

The North-Londoners are still struggling in league action and are some way off of the top-four. However, a win against the Citizens could be a statement. Meanwhile, City boss Pep Guardiola will be keen for the three points as his side s title defence continues to falter.

It was a brilliant day for Ljungberg last time out in the Premier League as he earned his first win as manager in the form of a 3-1 success against London rivals West Ham United. Since then, the Swede has also seen a youthful Gunners side b…

Crystal Palace 0 Huddersfield Town 3: Mounie at double as terrific Terriers make stunning Premier Le

Huddersfield Town made a dream start to life in the Premier League as Steve Mounie s double helped ruin Frank de Boer s Crystal Palace debut with a 3-0 win at Selhurst Park.

Pegged as relegation favourites after ensuring promotion via the Championship play-offs, David Wagner s men dictated matters in the first half and made top-flight history as they broke the deadlock in the 23rd minute.

Joel Ward s own goal saw Huddersfield become the first team to net their maiden Premier League goal in that manner.

The lead was doubled just three minutes later through Mounie s fine header and the hosts were lucky not to see De Boer s first game in charge take a further turn for the worse before half-time.

Palace did improve after the second-half restart in a bid to av…

A tragedy for the club – Leicester boss Puel reacts to helicopter crash

Leicester City manager Claude Puel has labelled Saturday s helicopter crash outside the King Power Stadium as a tragedy for the club .

An aircraft belonging to chairman Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha came down in a car park shortly after take-off at about 20:30 local time, around an hour after Puel s side claimed a 1-1 draw against West Ham in the Premier League.

There have been unconfirmed reports that Srivaddhanaprabha was on board and it is unclear at this stage whether there are any survivors.

Leicestershire Police confirmed the Air Accident Investigation Branch is leading an investigation, while the club are assisting the police and emergency services, with a more detailed statement to follow once further details have been established.

Stop inventing stories! – PSG star Neymar denies Emery rift

Neymar has emphatically denied claims of a rift with Paris Saint-Germain coach Unai Emery.

According to a report in L Equipe, relations between the duo have become fraught, just months after Neymar moved to PSG from Barcelona for a world-record €222million fee in August.

The 25-year-old moved to quash those suggestions, adding that his relationship with Edinson Cavani, who he had a public spat with over the right to take a penalty in the 2-0 victory over Lyon in September, is fine too.

I m very well in Paris, I m happy. I m motivated to be a player who gives everything on the pitch, Neymar told a news conference after scoring in Brazil s 3-1 win over Japan on Friday.

Anyway, there s something that is bothering me a lot – I don t have a problem with …

Manchester United 3-0 Nottingham Forest: Rashford instigates straightforward win

Marcus Rashford was the inspiration as Manchester United beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 at Old Trafford on Tuesday in their first Premier League game since the World Cup break.

Rashford played a starring role in the EFL Cup defeat of Burnley last week and was again United s standout performer as they moved to within a point of fourth-placed Tottenham.

The England forward opened the scoring for a dominant United with a goal straight off the training ground before setting up Anthony Martial.

Forest had a goal wiped out just before the break, but it was not a precursor to United coming under greater scrutiny in the second period as they coasted before adding a late third through substitute Fred.

Erik ten Hag was forced to pick a somewhat unfamiliar backline due …

Chelsea v Barcelona: Messi´s blues against the Blues

Barcelona s dominant lead at the top of LaLiga and place in the Copa del Rey final means Lionel Messi seems certain to burnish his reputation as one of the all-time greats with yet more silverware this season.

However, on Tuesday at Stamford Bridge, a troubling foe comes into view for the mercurial Argentinian.

Despite facing Chelsea eight times in the Champions League during his stellar career, Messi has never scored against the reigning Premier League champions.

There is no other opponent he has faced more frequently without finding the net. Here, we look back at how Chelsea have managed to stop the unstoppable force.

´We don´t like to suffer´ – Benzema relieved for extra-time success in Copa del Rey

Karim Benzema suggests Real Madrid must find earlier goals in games if they do not wish to suffer after their 3-1 Copa del Rey comeback against Atletico Madrid.

Los Blancos failed to find the net until the final quarter-hour of regular time at the Santiago Bernabeu, when Rodrygo cancelled out Alvaro Morata s opener.

His superb solo finish forced extra-time in Thursday s quarter-final tie, with further goals for Benzema and Vinicius Junior cementing the turnaround for the hosts.

The reigning winner of the Ballon d Or acknowledged his side made themselves work for their spot in the last four with their performance at points, but stresses they always had the quality to respond.

It was a very difficult and complicated game, the France international reflected…

Icardi to reject Inter Milan deal

According to a recent report from AS, Inter Milan forward Mauro Icardi is set to turn down a brand new contract offer from the Italian club in order to facilitate a move away from the San Siro. The main objective behind Icardi’s move away is to go to a club that is capable of winning the Champions League, which Inter haven’t really come close to doing since they actually lifted the trophy in Madrid back in 2010.

Icardi’s attitude and behaviour behind the scenes hasn’t exactly helped his cause when it comes to getting in Inter’s good books, but if these latest reports are true, then it seems as if he’d have no real reason to do so. Mauro is considered to be one of the most prolific goalscorers in Italian football’s recent history, which is likely one of the primary…
