Yes Liverpool have won the FA Cup this season. Interestingly this season Liverpool have beaten Chelsea twice in the Final, also through a penalty shootout. For Liverpool this is their eighth title in the FA Cup. The Reds also still have the opportunity to add trophies this season, namely in the Premier League and Champions League.
2 meetings in a finals and they've got 2 cups, both off Chelsea. I really thought, Chelsea would have used this game to have there revenge from the EFL but sadly, they pushed it on to penalty shootout and lost once more. Its a game that should have been over right from the first half with the sort of chances that were created in both sides but unfortunately, they couldn't even make much of there shots on target. For me, yesterday's game was one of the worst I have seen from Chelsea in a while. As for the EPL and UCL trophy, uhmmmm Liverpool could pretty much have dreams of the UCL but when it comes to the EPL, I think Manchester City have got that covered already and very little could be done at this point to offset that. UCL and Real Madrid, it would take Liverpool to be at its best and not make a single mistake, else Spain would be defending champions. Of course, the winners are not judged, but still two cups won due to the penalty shootouts won is something. It will be absolutely ridiculous if the title of the winner of the Champions League is also won through a penalty shootout. Nevertheless, I believe that the winner of the tournament should be determined within the framework of a normal football game, and not due to the competition of two teams in the more successful performance of a single standard position of the game, such as an eleven-meter kick. Still, I would like to congratulate Liverpool on winning the cup, because the final and the penalty shootout still need to be earned and sympathize with Chelsea, who led less for the second final in a row. |

I'm happy to see that my bet on both teams to score for the Atletico Madrid - Sevilla game won. It was a late equalizer by Sevilla maybe but they still got what they wanted for sure. However I think that Atletico Madrid are still going to end the season ahead of Sevilla in the league table. This is even a poorer season for Sevilla by the way as they are close to ending the season at the fourth place.
I also predict Atletico will stay in 3rd place until the end of the season, then for Sevilla it is a little disappointing their performance this season. Whereas previously Sevilla could compete with Real Madrid for the La Liga trophy this season, but approaching the end of the season Sevilla's performance continued to decline, even in the last 4 matches Sevilla always failed to win. So this season Sevilla will finish in 4th position the same as the achievement of Sevilla the previous season, hopefully next season Sevilla can be even better. 4th place is not the worst result for Sevilla and at least allows you to participate in the Champions League for the next seasons. We can say that the main task for the season has been completed, although of course all recent memories are fresh, when the team seriously claimed the title of La Liga champion. However, with all due respect to Sevilla, I do not think that the club had such a great potential to still seriously expect to win the championship and therefore it is quite natural that the team could not keep the championship pace. By the way, if the information about the departure of head coach Lopetegui is correct, then it is interesting in which club he is going to continue his career. |

Milan is getting closer to winning the scudetto, Atalanta are a really strong team inded but Milan managed to beat them and take the points. The next match will be decisive and Sassuolo are easy opponents, as the match will be held at the Mapei Stadium.
After beating Atalanta, I think Milan already win the scudetto (Serie A trophy). The next match will be easy for them, I don't see any problem to beat Sassuolo. Milan played very consistently towards the end of the season, they won all the last 5 matches. This is the key they can lead the table so far. Now, they are just one step away from getting the scudetto, fighting with a weak team in the next match. So, I simply conclude they must win the Serie A trophy because Sassuolo has no reason to make difficulties for AC Milan in the next match. In theory, Milan completed the most difficult part of the task, having managed to win against Atalanta, but I was still in no hurry to say that Milan could now easily win against Sassuolo in the next match. Sassuolo is hardly an easy opponent for Milan lately. At least Sassuolo beat Milan in the previous two matches and I think the club would like to continue this pleasant series for itself. Let Sassuolo no longer solve any global problems in the championship, but I think that the club will try to put up serious resistance to the leader of the tournament. It will not matter that Milan has won five matches in a row before if the last decisive match is lost. |

But in this case there is no continuation of how he will dock later. currently MU and Arsenal seem to be serious about this player which indeed it will be fun to see how the continuation of this episode. I hope more for Dybala to be in the EPL next season because indeed this will be a new experience for this Argentinian passport man
Dybala probably doesn't fit for the premier league, he can't run at the premier league rhythm. I think he will end in Spain or Inter, and with Inter he has already done several meetings. Yuppp i have the same point of view about dybala wouldn't fit to the premier league. His playing style might could be adjusted but sometimes it works and sometimes it's not so yeah pretty risky if he accept the challenge to play at the premier league , he could ended up flop. Moving to inter would be pretty much hurting juventus fans and i dont think he wanted that , la liga might be his next destination, a perfect one. I also personally doubt that Dybala will want to move to the English Premier League if there are other options and that the Premier League suits the player himself. I don't think that the disapproval of the transfer to Inter by Juventus fans will be crucial for the player when making a decision, because the player has some resentment against Juventus, who first approved and then rejected the contract extension himself. Also, the fact that a football player will not need to radically change his life by moving to another country and another championship with a different style of play, to which he will still need to adapt, can have an impact, so the option with Inter is quite likely. |

Bayern have taken it easy in recent games. There was nothing more at stake, and my guess is that they had little interest in injuries for players either. Especially because we will have the transfer market again in the summer. I wonder if Bayern will continue to play in this composition. There are a few players who don't play much with this team. And see how Dortmund will solve that with Haaland.
It is not surprising if Bayern played relaxed in the last few matches and finally in the last 3 matches Bayern failed to win. That's because they have already won the Bundesliga trophy, so Bayern don't need to take the rest of the game seriously. By playing casually it is also good enough for Bayern so that their players avoid injury, because Bayern have to prepare everything well for next season. I'm sure Bayern will be active in the transfer market this summer, because Bayern have certainly lost Niklas Sule who decided to join Dortmund. And there is a possibility that Bayern will also lose Robert Lewandowski after Lewandowski refused a contract extension from Bayern. So Bayern must immediately look for new players who will fill the position that will be left by Sule and Lewandowski. I'm sure Bayern can soon get quality new players, because apart from Bayern being a team with a very good reputation, Bayern also has enough finances to be able to buy the desired star players. Despite the fact that everything has already been decided for Bayern, it still seems that the players and the club should be more responsible for the remaining matches and treat their own fans with more respect, who expect victories from their favorites. As for Lewandowski, a scandalous situation begins to develop when the player openly declares that he will not renew his contract with the club and may have played the last match for the club. No matter how high professionalism a player would have, but such a situation can hit the psychology of a player and reduce his return in games for the team, which may not benefit the results of the team. |

Manchester City got away really well today. trailed 2-0 and still made it 2-2. You can say that's class but it also shows that city is still vulnerable, if they don't win the last game then Liverpool will be champions. That would be a stunt. But City at home, that normally does not go wrong. City is still a big favorite the claim the title.
Thrilling match for both the title contender liverpool and manchester city. liverpool almost celebrating the slip of manchester city in the next match but it didn't happened unfortunately as manchester city still has a point to defend , the last match of the season are going much more thrilling , wish it really serve as an extraordinary entertainment. liverpool can still get slip though and manchester city are the one celebrating instead. A draw, of course, is not the best result for Manchester City, but at least such a result allowed the team to remain the leader and continue to be the master of its destiny. Although of course 2-0 after the first half in favor of West Ham should have made Manchester City fans nervous. On the other hand, Manchester City fans should be upset that Mahrez could not help his club even win the match without scoring a penalty in the 87th minute of the match. By the way, Mahrez has not missed a penalty for three and a half years. On the other hand, Liverpool still have to solve their task in winning against Southampton in order to preserve the chances of the title and now Liverpool fans are waiting for their anxious moments. |

I said before that Atletico Madrid have already guaranteed a place in top four. But it looks like it isn't the same for Sevilla now. Sevilla can still be left behind by Betis but it isn't a big probability at the same time. Even if Sevilla lose to Atletico Madrid and Betis defeat Granada, obtaining one point is going to be enough for Sevilla to stay in the fourth position too. So it's like mission impossible for Betis.
Sevilla will be a very unlucky team if they manage to miss a 5-point advantage over Betis in two rounds and lose the right to play in the Champions League next season. After all, not so long ago the team was seriously fighting for the title with Real Madrid, but including an excessive number of draw results did not allow the team to succeed in this fight. Still, I think that the safety margin of the team should be enough to try to score points in the match against both Atletico Madrid and Athletic. And if the team plays away from Atletico Madrid, then Sevilla will play with Athletic at their home stadium. Betis is still waiting for a game with Real Madrid away and victory there is by no means guaranteed. |

it looks like the bundesliga will lose its second top striker (after Erling Haaland/man city). according to the german bild newspaper, Robert Lewandowski will not extend his contract with bayern munich, which runs until 2023, and will most likely move to spain to fc barcelona ... the spanish club is offering him a 3-year contract
Judging by the comments of the President of Bavaria, Lewandowski will play until the end of the contract, it turns out another full season. Thus, this is very empty news, since everything can change in a year. I hope he changes his mind and plays for Bayern for another three years. He got too close to the absolute records in the club and it would be a pity if he could not beat them. I would still not rule out the possibility of Lewandowski leaving Bayern, on the contrary, I think that the probability of this is quite large. A similar story may repeat with him, which was with Ronaldo, when Juventus did not want to extend the contract with the player, but only for the player to finalize his contract before the end of the term. Lewandowski is no longer a young footballer and he would like to know clearly that he will have a full-fledged contract for several seasons on his hands. Also, he does not like this attitude of the club to himself. Therefore, I think that such statements by the management can only be an element of pressure on a football player and he will still be released for compensation that suits the club. |

Real Madrid v Liverpool is going to be a great match I think. Real Madrid have come a long way and they have had very tough opponents so far. Compared to Liverpool, they had tougher opponents after the group stage for sure. But this doesn't show that they are better than Liverpool now of course. Liverpool can even be a more challenging opponent for Real Madrid. I don't expect them to be complacent of course. I just hope to see a big rivalry in this match and both teams can score. And I believe Real Madrid will be reaching the title.
Mo Salah said he was looking forward to the match and also added that he remembered the final in which they lost and was anxious for revenge. I think Liverpool will win simply because they have a very big desire to win the cup. If they really win, Salah has every chance of getting the ball at the end of the season, well or Mane As for Salah personally, I have big doubts that he will be able to win the golden ball at the end of the season. If only he starts doing something unimaginable in the remaining matches, then I rather think that there is more chance of winning the prize from Mane, if we talk about the Liverpool players. The fact that Real Madrid had stronger and more status rivals in the previous stages of the Champions League does not say anything, especially since it is absolutely impossible to say that Real Madrid was head and shoulders stronger than Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea and Manchester City. Here we can rather talk about the element of chance that gave Real Madrid some rivals, and Liverpool other rivals. |

Milan have all the chance to achieve the Serie A title this season. They just need to keep being consistent in the remaining games as well. They are already two points ahead and moreover they are better than Inter as for their head-to-head games in this season of the Serie A. It is like all of the things point a title for Milan at the end. But this shouldn't affect Milan in a bad way like being too complacent. And I've no doubt they won't be like that. I believe Milan will keep winning by this week too.
Milan still as favorite win scudetto and need focus with two match left to get easy win become the champion of Serie A this season. Need 4 points make Milan as the winner of Serie A 2021/2022 what ever result from Inter match. Still left two match and Atalanta have waiting on next matchday. Almost close for Milan get Serie A tittle after long journey but they need consistnet with 2 match left if won't trophy back to Inter Milan. Maybe if next match success get 3 points against with Atalanta maybe last match with Sassoulo as easy games for Milan get scudetto. If Milan manages to win against Atalanta, then the task of winning the scudetto will be noticeably easier, because Atalanta is higher in the standings and on paper seems to be a more dangerous opponent than Sassuolo. But we all know perfectly well that forecasts are one thing, and reality is completely different. Therefore, Milan needs to put all tournament layouts aside for now and just tune in to the match with Atalanta and try to win, then tune in to the next match with Sassuolo. By the way, imagine how much pressure there will be on Inter in the match with Cagliari if Milan manages to win against Atalanta, because then only a victory in their match will leave Inter's chances for the Scudetto. |

Arsenal are going to face a quite difficult opponent next time. It is going to be an away game against Newcastle. And one day before, Tottenham are playing a home game against Burnley. If Tottenham manage to win that game, they are going to be two points ahead of Arsenal in the league table. And this might cause Arsenal players to be under pressure more. And we will see how they will handle this pressure in that case. I think Arsenal will find a way to win.
On the one hand, this is not the same Newcastle that fought for survival in the Premier League in the first round and the match will be held at his home. On the other hand, the fact that Newcastle is no longer busy fighting for survival can play into Arsenal's hands. At the same time, let Tottenham play at home at the stadium, but still Burnley is fighting and this fight for the right to stay in the Premier League and therefore I don't think Burnley will give up three points without a fight. Therefore, it is not for nothing that Tottenham head coach Antonio Conte said after winning the match with Arsenal that in addition to celebrations, you also need to think about the next game, when this victory will no longer matter. |

That is what distinguishes the situation of Real Madrid and Liverpool, because Real Madrid has already won the La Liga trophy. Besides that, Real Madrid only focuses on winning the Champions League trophy, so Real Madrid should benefit more than Liverpool. So Real Madrid can maintain the fitness of their players before the Champions League final begins. While Liverpool can't just focus on the Champions League competition only, the minds of Liverpool players are still divided into 3 competitions. And that puts a lot of pressure on Liverpool's players.
This situation is not so clear and the ongoing struggle in the championship can be useful for Liverpool in terms of attitude. A lot already depends on the coaching staff of the team and the medical staff, how to distribute the load on the players so that the players manage to recover not only physically, but also mentally and excessive tension does not begin to negatively affect the game and the results of the team. Also, the most important thing is that the Real Madrid players remain in good playing tone, because excessive relaxation can also play a cruel joke. Also, let's not forget that the game of modern Real Madrid is very dependent on players like Benzema and Modric and it is difficult to hope for a successful outcome of the final if these players are not in order. |

Just because he played amazingly so far in the clubs that he played in doesn't mean that he will be able to do that at the top club of the world by price. I mean City is worth 1 billion dollars already, it would be quite hard to get someone like Haaland and put him there and say that he will fit perfectly, it is unknown. He is also known to miss some games as well, he needs to learn to protect himself, he throws himself at the opponents for a chance to score which helps him have high per game goal averages but his appearance numbers are lower. In any case, it is a wonderful transfer and it will certainly be beneficial one way or another, can't hurt.
So far we've seen it in the Bundesliga it's been amazing but we understand because there are not many competitors there And in the Premier League Haaland will have a different challenge because almost all the players have more average abilities In addition, we understand that Manchester City goal is to invest because Haaland is a young player. We must think that there are quite competent people in the selection service of Manchester City and they are quite able to assess the prospects of a football player in the Premier League. I do not think that the invitation of such an expensive football player was the initiative of just one person and all the nuances of such a transfer were not calculated. Personally, I have no doubt that Haaland is able to adapt to the English championship according to his capabilities. The most important thing is for the player to be able to adapt to the style of Manchester City and for Josep Guardiola to be able to successfully fit into his team tactics, which now in any case will have to be changed for the sake of Haaland. |

When it comes to the finale, I think that Rangers are capable of beating Frankfurt and winning the title after. Rangers are this much close to the Europa League title for the first time. They have never reached this stage in the tournament before as far as I know. Therefore they should be benefiting from this big chance in an effective way. They are performing really strongly and they can win this too. They just need to be more aware in their defense as Frankfurt are a good attacking team.
With the same success, we can say that Eintracht is able to beat Rangers in the final and win the title of the winner of the Europa League  In my opinion, the chances of Frankfurt are still preferable, given how the team performs in the tournament this season. However, I still think that these chances are not so preferable to consider Eintracht the undisputed favorite of the final, given how well the team conducts the Europa League, so it does not show itself in the Bundesliga in the most successful way. But even there, Eintracht knows how to gather in individual matches and play with dignity to play with teams above themselves in the standings. |

Tottenham just won one of the most important games of the season against Arsenal and really heavy . Tottenham is now behind only 1 point with two rounds to go and has a better goal advantage then Arsenal so it will be really intresting to see what will happen
Well, time will tell. All Arsenal has to do is stay composed and win all their remaining 2 games. Tottenham can score 100 goals if they want but won't touch the 4th place if their rivals get all the 6 points. This drama is going to continue to the last day, and it will be exciting. Arsenal complicated the situation with this loss, because if they won, they would have already secured participation in the Champions League for next season, or it would have been enough to play at least with a draw to maintain the status quo and the current gap with Tottenham. However, the situation is still in the hands of Arsenal because with all due respect to Newcastle and Everton, it is still easier to win against these clubs than against Tottenham, with whom the match was held in this round. In turn, In turn, Tottenham also still need to win their remaining matches with Burnley and Norwich, and there are also possible surprises here. |

I was surprised to see Madrid playing their key players because of the Champions League match at the end of the month still have 3 weeks, even I think playing today has no impact in the next 3 weeks , I can't guess what the coach is thinking.
I am also surprised, I don't know why Real Madrid must release their best strikers (Benzema-Vinicius-Rodrygo). Rodrygo played 62 minutes, Benzema 75 minutes, and Vinicius full time. I think this is very risky, how if these strikers got injured, especially Benzema. Real Madrid has no other CFs that have the same capability as Benzema. Luckily, Benzema and those two wingers (Vinicius-Rodrygo) have no problems during the match. Since the final UCL is only 3 weeks left, I also hope Ancelotti doesn't release them again in the next match (vs Cadiz). Any footballers need practice to stay in the game tone and no training will replace it, so it's quite clear to me why Ancelotti released these players. The most important thing is not to overdo it with this practice, so as not to get unnecessary injuries and I think one match a week fits perfectly into this idea. Ancelotti has been coaching for many years and therefore should perfectly understand all the advantages and disadvantages of such a situation, especially since Vinicius is still young, so he played the whole match, and such age players as Benzema and Modric still did not play the full match and were replaced in advance. |

Real had Zidane, their old player who became a manager and then won so much with them. Why not Barcelona? Xavi won so much with Barcelona when he played there, he was amazing when he managed that Qatar team which we all know they are very rich, and now he is in Barcelona and doing so well, he solidified the second position so quickly. This is why I believe that after the summer break, when they get rid of the players who are getting paid more than what they deserve, and sell them to other teams or wave them somehow, and get great few players they are going to actually be a team that will fight for both the league and the champions league at the same time, within just one year.
Still, with all due respect to Zidane as head coach of Real Madrid, he would have a better financial situation at the club. As for Xavi, I would like to state the fact that he managed to cope and rectify the situation even faster and better than many expected. Now Xavi is expecting a second season at the head of Barcelona, but now the attitude towards his successes and failures will be completely different and if in the first season they could treat some failures with understanding, now Xavi himself has raised the bar of expectations in his attitude and I'm afraid that this may not be the best way to hit him, when something goes wrong. |

It was a great night in the Coppa Italia. Juventus and Inter competed very well with each other and we watched six goals in total at the end. Juventus did the best thing they could do but Inter still managed to keep playing better. They wanted this title more than Juventus. And Perisic's goals in the extra time helped them too much about achieving this. Juventus should have performed better than this to become the champions in this tournament at least.
Well, Juventus missed a great chance to improve the impression of not the brightest season in their performance. The team is now left without any title for the first time in 11 years, although it would seem to have turned the course of the match when Sandru and Vlasic scored their goals within a few minutes at the beginning of the second half. I want to congratulate Inter on this success and do not forget that the team is still fighting for the Scudetto. Personally, I had big doubts about Inter's prospects for this season after all the losses between seasons, when the head coach and leading players left, but the team is successfully coping with all this so far. |

Haaland on this City team will be quite a sight to see. I mean he has always been a great player, he has been one wherever he has played so far and that will not change in City either and he will definitely be great. However, 2 things will change with this transfer, first of all, he will play in the Premier League which is a tough league, so it will be a big test for him, if he plays here and keeps scoring a lot here then we are talking about a big amount for him next time around. Not because he will leave, I do not know if he will switch teams again for another like 10 years, but his salary will certainly be one of the biggest if not the biggest if he scores a lot. Secondly he never had a team like City to play together with, and this means he may actually be a monster, like score hattricks after hattricks, if 37 years old Ronaldo can do it, don't see a reason why Haaland shouldn't.
I think Haaland should prove himself in the Premier League with dignity and he has all the physical characteristics and skills. It should also help him that Manchester City preaches an attacking style and such a scoring striker who has a good realization of scoring chances will definitely not be superfluous. The most important question arises in the injury rate of the player, which has been quite frequent lately. And this is in the Bundesliga, and in the Premier League the game is tougher and more intense than in Germany. It was the injury of the player that confused Real Madrid when they were interested in the player and let's hope that City understands all this perfectly and understands how to deal with it. |

City needed four points to win EPL trophy a win and a draw is enough to seal it.
Why do you think that they needed to force their luck by getting a draw while they can win both of those last games? There isnt that many differences of goals between Liverpool and City so if somehow they get a draw or worst case scenario, lose a game then Liverpool will have a solid chance of catching up. Obviously that would be foolish to not get 6 points especially when they no longer need to compete in UCL That's right, Manchester City is more focused in this league than to get a draw better to win in the two remaining matches. Worst case scenario is losing the toughest match for him and next match later is West ham they also want to secure a position, Head to Head is quite profitable for Home to get a draw. But there is no other surprise in this team, the inconsistency in the last few games was not enough to hold Manchester City. I think Manchester City is not the team that would prefer to play for a draw if there is an opportunity to win. Nevertheless, such tactics are risky enough and agreeing in advance to a draw result, that team already takes the initiative in advance, which is fraught and not at all in the philosophy of Josep Guardiola. Therefore, it is better for Manchester City not to change themselves and continue to play the football that the team played before and hope that fate will definitely thank the team for this. Manchester City has no other goals left for this season and therefore there is no need to spray forces and emotions on something else, unlike Liverpool, and this can also play in favor of the team. |
