10 h. ago Murillo earns Nottingham Forest vital point at Crystal Palace in race for Europe

Nottingham Forest aren’t finished just yet. A typically wholehearted performance from Nuno Espírito Santo’s side rescued a point that could eventually prove priceless for their hopes of reaching the promised land of the Champions League next season.It is to their immense credit that with three matches still to play, a team who ended last season in 17th place are still in contention to dine at Europe’s top table. Having fallen behind to Eberechi Eze’s penalty in front of a joyous Crystal Palace crowd still basking in the glory of their upcoming appearance in the FA Cup final, that they were back on terms within four minutes thanks to Murillo’s clever finish spoke volumes about the spirit Nuno has created at the two-time European champions since replacing Steve Cooper.

37 h. ago Palmer breaks goal drought as champions Liverpool beaten by Chelsea

There used to be a rivalry here, once. Two decades ago this was genuinely the most foreboding fixture in English football; a decade ago it was still deciding the destiny of league titles; five years ago it was still appointment viewing. Here, amid a fiesta of missed chances and offside flags, a deeply unserious Chelsea beat a Liverpool team that clearly couldn’t care less.The score could have been 5-0 or 5-5 or 0-0 and frankly nobody would have been any the wiser. There was a guard of honour at the start. There were triumphal odes from the away end. Chelsea fans retorted with the Steven Gerrard song, and the “you’ll never get a job” song, and the “always the victims” song. What was it people were saying about football becoming ever more predictable, ever more rote, ever more uninspiring? Continue reading...

40 h. ago Alexander Isak on the spot to help Newcastle share the spoils at Brighton

Three times the referee Craig Pawson awarded penalties to Newcastle in the second half. Twice they were overturned by VAR but the third one stood, and Alexander Isak converted to earn Newcastle a vital point in the race for Champions League football. They had not played well, but they never do against Brighton, and in that context a draw earned with an 89th-minute equaliser was extremely welcome.“Keeping our composure and making sure our performance wasn’t affected by the outcomes [of the VAR decisions] was key,” said the Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, who acknowledged the VAR was right to rule out the first two penalties. “If you look at the season as a whole we probably haven’t dug out enough points from games that are in the balance.

40 h. ago Bowen pounces for West Ham to deny Spurs but boos ring out for Hammers

There is no better example of West Ham’s malaise than their inability to raise themselves for this game. Tottenham Hotspur had an excuse given that their season rests on whether they hold their nerve when they head to the Arctic Circle for the conclusion of their Europa League semi-final with Bodo/Glimt this week, but there are no such silver linings at the London Stadium. This has been a campaign to forget for West Ham, who seem destined to finish in 17th place after going eight games without a win, and only a major overhaul of a tired, ageing squad this summer will ensure that they do not endure more turmoil next season.There has been no uplift since Graham Potter was hired in place of Julen Lopetegui in January. West Ham have taken 14 points from 15 games under Potter and they attacked this visit from Ange Postecoglou’s B team without any discernible enthusiasm. A passionless 1-1 draw, secured by Jarrod Bowen cancelling out Wilson Odobert’s opener for Spurs, was deservedly greete...
