Champions League

Despite comfortably dispatching Everton 5-1 at the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal missed out on Champions League qualification.

59’ - GOAL! (Gabriel Magalhaes) - Gabriel now gets into the act for the Gunners, and once again it comes from a corner! The defender hits a fantastic effort from inside the box into the top corner after Saka plays his corner short to the full-back! 56’ - GOAL! (Cedric Soares) - Cedric gets in on the act! 45+3’ - GOAL! (Donny van de Beek) - A goal for Everton against the run of play! 25’ - PENALTY FOR ARSENAL - Cedric whips a ball towards the far post from the right, but Iwobi gets the initial block in. A lot of it will come down to having a threadbare squad, and failing to strengthen adequately in January.

Kane was given his first sight of goal but the England captain’s low shot floated straight into the arms of Tim Krul. Spurs’s early dominance continued with Norwich failing to clear and Kane’s fierce strike, from an acute angle, was blocked by Krul. The breakthrough finally arrived with Højbjerg lofting a ball over the static defence and Rodrigo Bentancur teed up Kulusevski for a low finish. Harry Kane profited from a dreadful defensive error before half-time, with the jubilant Tottenham fans revelling in the sunshine. Tottenham were in disarray when Conte was appointed in November but he masterminded a transformation to guide the team into the top four. It means there’s a great atmosphere in the dressing room.” Conte, who won the Premier League at Chelsea five years ago, said: “For me this is a trophy and I’m very happy.

Liverpool just missed out on Premier League glory, but there is good reason to believe they will bounce back in the Champions League.

And while it is clearly a daunting proposition, many Liverpool fans will keep the faith. Liverpool have shown that they can grow, rather than shrink, in the face of the cruellest defeats. But for a lot of Liverpool fans in the moments after the game, it may not feel that way. Three weeks on from an ultimately meaningless two-goal victory over Wolves, they beat Spurs in Madrid to win the Champions League. All of a sudden, their domestic agony dissipated and the mood at the club heading into the off-season was transformed. This was a familiar outcome, then, but it was reached in a very different way. In the end, while Liverpool were able to eke out a 3-1 victory, City’s five-minute comeback put paid to their ambitions.

Spurs' 5-0 win at Norwich means they finish above Arsenal for the sixth straight season.

Their former winger Wilfried Zaha struck just before half time to inflict a 12th top-flight defeat of the season on the Red Devils. Watching on at Selhurst Park, Erik ten Hag would have got a clear sense of the task on his hand; for the first time in 32 years United have ended the season without a positive goal difference. The Gunners at least ended their season on something of a high with a 5-1 victory over Everton that might have been even more convincing than the scoreline suggested. Instead Kane and Son inspired them to a 3-0 win over Arsenal which they followed by beating Burnley, assuring themselves of local bragging rights for the sixth straight year.

UEFA's Technical Observer panel casts an expert eye over Saturday's UEFA Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid.

Amid the incredible late drama that Madrid have scripted on their path to this final, they have also sought to make an early impact in matches with inventive kick-off routines. Three white shirts went in instant pursuit of the ball as Paris restarted at 2-1; they won it back and, in a flash, Benzema had his hat-trick. Back in 2018/19 the UEFA Champions League technical report highlighted Salah’s five shots on goal from set-plays cleared to the edge of the penalty box. In the following round, Ibrahima Konaté highlighted his aerial menace with strikes from corners in both legs against Benfica. As the heatmap of Alexander-Arnold’s touches underlines, he is ever more involved in the opposition half. As well as four assists, Alexander-Arnold has completed more crosses (23) than any other player in the 2021/22 competition, while Robertson (two assists) ranks joint-fourth in that category with 16.

Taking place at the Stade de France, 2019 Champions League victors Liverpool will battle Real Madrid, winners of four UCL titles since the 2013-14 campaign.

For the reasons outlined above, I would play Liverpool up to -145 in regular time as I have it projected at -160. Add in its two group stage fixtures against Inter Milan and the discrepancy becomes even larger. In its last five UCL fixtures, Real’s offense has generated 1.76 xG/90 minutes. Additionally, Liverpool’s defense has played rock-steady in its last six UCL fixtures. Even if you remove the two Benfica matches from consideration, Liverpool’s offensive output drops to only 1.53 xG/90 minutes. This will be a rematch of the 2018 Champions League Final, which saw Real claim its third consecutive European crown after dispatching Liverpool, 3-1.

Thiago may be able to face Real Madrid after scans showed no serious damage to the star midfielder's ankle.

That said, of course it’s my dream to win another Champions League. But we have to be really well prepared and play to win in the final.
