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;

Following the postponement&nbsp;of IPL&nbsp;2021 due to Covid-19, fingers are being pointed at the way BCCI&nbsp;managed its bio-bubble. Indian board's efforts to create a safe environment clearly fell apart as Covid-19 invaded the team bubbles. But what caused this breach? Well, there may be many reasons.
1) The 2020 IPL&nbsp;which happened in the UAE&nbsp;was manage by&nbsp;a professional company well versed in trackable devices and bio-secure solutions. This time, IPL decided to manage&nbsp;a bio-secure bubble of its own by listing down its set of hospital vendors and testing labs to replicate the process which failed.&nbsp;
2) BCCI&nbsp;decided to host the games in multiple cities hit by the Coronavirus&nbsp;and air travel was the biggest issue. According to reports,&nbsp;Saha, Balaji and Mishra contracted the virus while travelling from Mumbai to Delhi, coming through the airport terminus. Teams had demanded a tarmac access for state government which was denied and thus ran the risk of being exposed. There was no air travel in UAE.
 3) The&nbsp;tracking device worn by players all the time was faulty. It was purchased from a Chennai-based company which couldn't track the movement of the players.&nbsp;
 4) Testing and quarantine protocols were not good enough for members outside the bubble. Groundsmen, hotel staff, ground catering, net bowlers, DJ, drivers' testing process wasn't robust as last time. It is reported that each franchise created its own bubble for its own members and staff, instead of a central protocol.
 5) Last but not the least, BCCI&nbsp;was reluctant to take the IPL&nbsp;out of India&nbsp;despite clear requests from franchises and even the IPL&nbsp;Governing&nbsp;Council.

Trouble continues to mount for the BCCI as a Public Interest Litigation has been filed against the Indian board by an advocate in the Bombay High Court for staging the IPL&nbsp;during the Covid-19 pandemic.
The plea, filed by advocate Vandana Shah, states that BCCI should be ordered to tender an unconditional apology to Indians for their tone-deaf and arrogant behaviour.&nbsp;The plea also states that BCCI should be asked to supply oxygen and medical supplies worth over Rs 1000 crores, and whatever profit they have made in this corona-ravaged time by holding the IPL.

Big hit for the coffers of BCCI as it's most profitable league the IPL stands cancelled indefinitely. Initial estimates see a Rs 3000 cr hit to BCCI as 3

Big hit for the coffers of BCCI&nbsp;as it's most profitable league the IPL&nbsp;stands cancelled indefinitely. Initial estimates see a Rs 3000 cr hit to BCCI&nbsp;as 31 out of the 60-match tournament were still remaining to be played. On an average the&nbsp;BCCI&nbsp;earns Rs 67 crore from every match broadcast, and per data provided by the sporting board it earned Rs 4000 cr from the IPL&nbsp;in 2020 when it held matches in a similar 'bubble' in the UAE.&nbsp;
The hit for teams comes as the&nbsp;IPL income received by the BCCI is transferred to the central reserve pool, which is then shared equally among the BCCI and IPL franchises. The eight teams would have to forgo at least Rs 1,000 crore in earnings from the central reserve pool. The next hit could come in from sponsorship,&nbsp;title sponsors like Vivo and co-sponsors like Paytm, Tata, Dream11, Unacademy&nbsp;would now only be paying up for half the tournament. Also, individual team sponsors would now rework their payouts as well. Teams reportedly earn revenue between single-digit crores to over Rs 40 crore&nbsp;from individual sponsors.&nbsp;The eight franchises reportedly earn up to Rs 500 crore a year from these sponsorships, which was expected to be around Rs 600 crore this year due to digital rights as well.&nbsp;
