Mbappe’s hattrick helps PSG crush Barcelona

Barcelona had everything going their way in the 1st leg of Champions League round of 16 tie against French Giants Paris St Germain at Nou Camp. Lionel Messi gave the hosts an early lead but what followed was an absolute nightmare. Kylian Mbappe inspired PSG who were without Angel di Maria and Neymar and equalised almost immediately. He followed up his equaliser with 2 more in the 2nd half as he completed a hattrick to carry his team almost to the quarter-finals. The 4-1 scoreline leaves Barcelona a mountain to climb in the 2nd leg but considering their last turn around against PSG had an almost similar storyline 4 years ago when Barcelona scored 6 in the 2nd leg to complete a stunning win.

It started with a bang but ended in a cloud of smoke. The proposed European Super League stands suspended after the management decided&nbsp;to take some time to replan&nbsp;as all English clubs Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, Tottenham, Arsenal &amp; Liverpool pulled out of the proposed league. The fans who protested against the move celebrated&nbsp;as all English clubs are now taking legal steps to formally get out of the Super League group. Manchester City led the exit followed by Chelsea as Arsenal, United, Liverpool and Spurs too decided against joining the rebel league. Super League in a statement confirmed that given the current circumstances, the body is planning to reshape the proposed league.&nbsp;

After being forced to split points, Liverpool&nbsp;remains in the 6th spot, a point behind Chelsea who has played a game less.&nbsp;

As the announcement of the European Super League was made, fans gathered outside their football clubs to show anger against the proposed new league. Die-hard football supporters were seen outside some of the most iconic football grounds like the&nbsp;Emirates,&nbsp;Anfield&nbsp;&amp; even the Old Trafford. There were massive protests as Arsenal, Liverpool, and Manchester United fans showed their anger against the new league. The supporters feel that the owners of these massive football clubs are running after money and the new league will destroy the game completely. UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson too feels the same and said that his government will try to stop the European Super League.&nbsp;

English Premier League club Tottenham sacked manager Jose Mourinho on Monday after just 17 months in charge. The sacking came just 6 days

English Premier League club&nbsp;Tottenham&nbsp;sacked manager&nbsp;Jose Mourinho&nbsp;on Monday&nbsp;after just 17 months in charge. The&nbsp;sacking came just 6 days before the Spurs were set to face Manchester City in the EFL Cup final.&nbsp;
The Portuguese replaced Mauricio Pochettino as Tottenham manager in November 2019 and guided the club to 6th in the Premier League last season.
Tottenham was&nbsp;7th on the table at the time of his sacking, and had picked up two points from their last 3 league games. They were also knocked out of the Europa League in March.

Mason Greenwood scored a brace for Manchester United as they thrashed Burnley&nbsp;3-1 at the Old Trafford on Sunday night in the Premier League. Edinson&nbsp;Cavani&nbsp;scored the 3rd goal for Ole Gunnar&nbsp;Solskjaer's men as they completed a night of dominating football to ensure 3 points. With the loss, Burnley&nbsp;hovers right over the relegation zone in the 17th spot whereas United reduced the gap with City to 8 points on top of the league.&nbsp;

A late winner from&nbsp;Edward Nketiah&nbsp;was enough to deny Fulham a much-deserved win as Arsenal were held to a 1-1 draw at home. The draw pushes Fulham&nbsp;further into the relegation zone as they are 18th on the points table. Arsenal on the other hand remains 9th in the league as their chances of playing European football next year received a major blow. To make matters worse for Mikel&nbsp;Arteta&nbsp;and his side,&nbsp;Alexandre Lacazette&nbsp;limped off in the 2nd half with a hamstring issue and is likely to miss some games according to the manager.&nbsp;

Football in European competitions will never be the same again after 12 major clubs including Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, AC

Football in European competitions will never be the same again after 12 major clubs including Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, AC Milan, Inter Milan &amp; Juventus&nbsp;announced a new league on Sunday.
Called the European Super League, the clubs plan to boycott playing in the existing UEFA&nbsp;Champions League and start their own mid-week competition. Apart from playing in their respective domestic leagues, the 12 clubs will play in the new competition starting 2024.
In a joint statement, the consortium named Real Madrid President Florentino Perez&nbsp;Perez as the founding chairman of the proposed league as it aims to provide a larger chunk of money to clubs for development.
Almost 3.5 billion euros is promised to all the 12 clubs who have agreed so far with a few more from Germany &amp; France expected to join. The business model of the new league is fairly simple, the clubs who formed the league want a larger share of broadcast earnings.
&nbsp;
All clubs will get more matches as compared to the original model of the Champions League with a much larger share of the earnings as currently UEFA, the European football authority controls the cash flow.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The disruption of the current model could undermine the domestic leagues as the stakeholders are worried that it will change the way football is run in Europe but the new consortium wants more financial control and independence. Fans too are not very happy as they feel that the essence &amp; purity of football might get lost when money controls the beautiful game.&nbsp;

After Barcelona clinched their first title in 2&nbsp;seasons, about a dozen media outlets showed up at the&nbsp;Canaletes fountain at the&nbsp;iconic Las Ramblas boulevard expecting fans to defy the city's night curfew due to the Covid-19 pandemic and celebrate the victory at their usual meeting point.
But besides the press, the only people at the historic fountain were the city's cleaning services and the occasional food delivery workers.
Earlier, Lionel Messi's&nbsp;brace helped Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao 4-0 to win the Copa del Rey, giving Ronald Koeman his first title as coach of the Catalan club.&nbsp;

Bayern Munich coach Hansi Flick wants to leave the defending German Bundesliga champions at the end of the season.
Flick, who has a contract with the club to 2023, told reporters that he would like to get out of his current contract at the end of the season. The statement came after Bayern&rsquo;s 3-2 Bundesliga win over Wolfsburg&nbsp;as he also informed the club about this decision.
Interestingly. Flick has been linked with the German national team coaching position, which will be vacant after Joachim Loew steps down after this summer&rsquo;s European Championship. Flick was previously Loew&rsquo;s assistant from 2006 to 2014.

Manchester City's grand plans of winning a quadruple or 4 trophies in one season came to a grinding halt after Chelsea stunned them 1-0 to enter the final of the FA Cup.&nbsp;Hakim Ziyech&nbsp;scored the lone goal in the 2nd half as City failed to find the back of the net through the game. This is the 2nd time in a row that City have been knocked out of the FA Cup in the semifinals as Pep Guardiola also saw injury to their star playmaker&nbsp;Kevin de Bruyne.&nbsp;

4 goals were scored in 30 mins&nbsp;including a stunning brace from Lionel Messi&nbsp;as Barcelona thrashed Athletic Bilbao&nbsp;4-0 to win the Copa&nbsp;del Rey&nbsp;title. The 31st title for Barcelona didn't come easy as Barcelona were pushed into a corner in the first half desperate in need of a goal. But in the 2nd half, the dominance switched hands with&nbsp;Antoine Griezmann&nbsp;and&nbsp;Frenkie de Jong&nbsp;scoring in quick succession. Messi&nbsp;then came and stamped his authority&nbsp;with 2 goals towards the end of the 2nd half. Revenge of sorts for Barcelona as they were earlier beaten&nbsp;2-1 by Athletic in January's Spanish Super Cup final.&nbsp;

Arsenal hammered 4 goals past a hapless&nbsp;Slavia Prague in their 2nd leg of the quarterfinal clash in the Europa&nbsp;League.&nbsp;Nicolas Pepe&nbsp;and Bukayo&nbsp;Saka&nbsp;scored a goal each while&nbsp;Alexandre Lacazette&nbsp;netted a brace on a perfect night for Arsenal and Mikel&nbsp;Arteta&nbsp;as they won 5-1 on aggregate. Arsenal will now play&nbsp;Villarreal in the 2nd semifinal as it will be a reunion of sorts with former Gunners boss Unai&nbsp;Emery. Meanwhile, Manchester United also entered the semifinals of the Europa&nbsp;League after an easy 2-0 win over Spanish club Granada in the 2nd leg of their quarterfinal tie. Edinson&nbsp;Cavani&nbsp;opened the scoring in the 6th minute and Granada contributed with an own goal in the losing cause as Ole Gunnar&nbsp;Solskjaer's&nbsp;men won 4-0 on aggregate.

Real Madrid played out a goalless draw with Liverpool at the Anfield in the 2nd leg of their quarterfinal clash in the Champions League. The draw was enough to send Zinedine&nbsp;Zidane's&nbsp;men through to the Champions League semifinals&nbsp;as the manager is hunting for his 5th title as the boss of the Spanish side. Manchester City in the other game outclassed German club Borussia&nbsp;Dortmund in the 2nd leg at home to win 2-1. Phil Foden and Riyad&nbsp;Maharez&nbsp;scored a goal each for City as they won 4-2 on aggregate. Pep Guardiola's&nbsp;side breaks their jinx of losing at the quarterfinals for 3 straight years as they entered the last four for the first time since 2016. In the last 4, PSG will play Man City and Real Madrid will take on Chelsea for a place in the final.&nbsp;

They were beaten 1-0 on the night but couldn't prevent Chelsea from entering the Champions League's semifinal. FC Porto&nbsp;did everything right by beating Chelsea 1-0 in the 2nd leg of their clash which was played in Sevilla but clearly, the lone goal scored wasn't enough.&nbsp;Medhi Taremi&nbsp;scored through a stunning bicycle&nbsp;kick to give a 1-0 win to Porto. The 2012 winners who won the first leg 2-0 had enough cushion to ride through the Porto&nbsp;attacks and enter the semis.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The lone strike of the match came from&nbsp;Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting&nbsp;who found the back of the net in the 1st half. PSG&nbsp;managed to prevent further damage as they kept the scoreline to 1-0 which meant that they advanced to the semifinals on the basis of the away goal rule.&nbsp;

VAR or&nbsp;video assistant&nbsp;referee was once again under the&nbsp;spotlight as Manchester United schooled Tottenham on Sunday&nbsp;night in the Premier League. First, a goal from Edinson&nbsp;Cavani&nbsp;was disallowed after the referee consulted the VAR&nbsp;for a possible foul against Spurs' Son&nbsp;Heung&nbsp;Min. A few minutes later Son gave Spurs the opening goal which remained the only strike of the 1st half.&nbsp;Pushed into the corner, Manchester United came back stronger and scored thrice in the 2nd half including a goal each from Fred, Cavani,&nbsp;and Mason Greenwood to finish&nbsp;the match 3-1 and collect all 3 points. The win reduces the gap between the two Manchester clubs to 9 points as United has played a game less.&nbsp;
