Atletico&nbsp;Madrid stayed on top of the La Liga&nbsp;table as they played out a goalless draw against Barcelona on Saturday night.
While&nbsp;Lionel Messi&nbsp;and Barca&nbsp;struggled to break the visitors down,&nbsp;Luis Suarez, who returned to&nbsp;the Nou Camp with Atletico Madrid for the first time, too failed to find the net.
The draw gives Real Madrid an advantage in the title race as a win against&nbsp;Sevilla on Sunday would take them to the top because of their head-to-head record.

BCCI has finalised Team India's travel and quarantine plan for the trip to England which will have the World Test Championship final vs New Zealand also a 5-match

BCCI&nbsp;has finalised Team India's travel and quarantine plan for the trip to England which will have the World Test Championship final vs New Zealand also a 5-match Test series vs England. According to ANI, Team India will get into a bio-bubble in India for 8 days followed by a charter flight to Southampton. The team will do a 10-day quarantine in Southampton at the hotel which is situated at the ground. Since the players and support staff will move from one bubble to another in England, they will be allowed to train and practice at the Rose Bowl which will also host the final of the inaugural Test championship. The board has also permitted the players to take their families as the tour of England will be very long and will end in mid-September.&nbsp;&nbsp;

New Zealand's wicketkeeper-batsman Tim Seifert, who plays for&nbsp;Kolkata Knight Riders in the postponed 2021 edition of IPL, has tested positive for COVID-19 and will not be on the charter flight back home with other players and support staff.&nbsp;He will, instead, stay in isolation in Ahmedabad before returning to Chennai, where he will be treated at a private hospital. Seifert failed both his pre-departure RT-PCR tests and "is experiencing moderate symptoms."&nbsp;&nbsp;

Hardik&nbsp;Pandya's&nbsp;exclusion from India's Test squad for the World Test Championship final and the England tour raised many eyebrows. Once considered one of the best all-rounders&nbsp;with the red ball, Pandya&nbsp;is now not even in the team that is playing the final of the inaugural World Test Championship. According to a report in the Times of India, Pandya's&nbsp;inability to bowl in the longest format pushed him out of the team. Interestingly, captain Virat&nbsp;Kohli&nbsp;spoke a lot about managing Pandya's&nbsp;workload during the home series vs England but the allrounder&nbsp;only bowled a few overs in the T20 series &amp; once during the ODIs. The report suggests that the selectors are no longer considering Pandya&nbsp;for Test cricket now and will focus on him as a pure batter for white-ball cricket. Pandya&nbsp;underwent back surgery in 2019 and since then has changed his action to relieve some stress but the report suggests that his shoulder has now flared up and the cricketer is finding it tough to manage the workload.&nbsp;

Nine of the 12 football clubs across&nbsp;Europe who initially agreed to participate in the&nbsp;'Super League' have accepted monitory sanctions imposed by the UEFA. The clubs have also&nbsp;formally renounced the breakaway league and have committed to the existing European competitions. They will have to give up 5 per cent of their&nbsp;UEFA revenue for one season as a punishment for the rebellion.&nbsp;The Super League project imploded after the English clubs - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur - backed out inside 48 hours after a backlash from fans and the British government. The nine clubs will make a combined payment of 15 million euros for what UEFA called a "gesture of goodwill" to benefit children, youth and grassroots football. The clubs have also agreed to be fined 100 million euros if they seek again to play in an unauthorized competition.&nbsp;

While Bumrah&nbsp;took off for his wedding, Shami&nbsp;and Jadeja&nbsp;missed the last home series vs England due to injuries.

KL Rahul and Wriddhiman&nbsp;Saha&nbsp;were also named in the squad subject to fitness clearance. The World Test Championship final will start from 18th June in Southampton followed by a 5-match Test series vs England as the long tour will stretch to September.&nbsp;Team India is expected to travel to England by a charter flight towards the end of this month.

Edinson Cavani's brace couldn't help Manchester United win in Rome against AS Roma in the 2nd leg of the Europa League semifinals as they lost the game 3

Edinson&nbsp;Cavani's brace couldn't help Manchester United win in Rome against AS Roma in the 2nd leg of the Europa&nbsp;League semifinals&nbsp;as they lost the game 3-2. But their exploits in the 1st leg when they humbled Roma 6-2 helped them scrape through to the finals of the tournament. After leading 1-0 at the end of first half, United slipped as hosts AS Roma scored twice in 3 mins&nbsp;to regain control of the game. United contributed through an own goal with Cavani&nbsp;completing his brace deep into the 2nd half. Roma reigned supreme with a 3-2 win but United edged past their Italian rivals on aggregate 8-5 with 13 goals scored during the 2 games.&nbsp;

Arsenal was shown the door from European football as Villarreal knocked out the Premier League side from the semifinals of the Europa&nbsp;League. A goalless draw at the Emirates was enough as Villarreal won the tie on a 2-1 aggregate after they won the 1st leg. The Gunners had many chances in the game but only fired blanks as the Spanish club kept total control over the game. Mikel&nbsp;Arteta's side struggled to find the back of the net through the game as it was a revenge of sorts for Villarreal's boss Unai&nbsp;Emery who Arsenal had fired in 2019. Arsenal and its fans are now staring at a prospect of no European football next season for the first time in 25 years.&nbsp;&nbsp;
