19 h. ago Ousmane Dembélé, last matinee idol in Paris, finally delivers on big stage | Jonathan Liew

The forward, often seen as a remnant from the decadent PSG of old, scored the biggest goal of his career at ArsenalFor Paris Saint‑Germain, the final whistle arrived like an orchestral fanfare. Exhausted, sweat-drenched players sank to their knees; emotional embraces were shared; the knot of visiting fans in the south-east corner of the Emirates flung scarves in the air and noisily serenaded an epic, razor-thin triumph. It was at this point that Ousmane Dembélé re-emerged from the bench and strolled across the pitch, wearing flip-flops.And as visual motifs go, this one felt pleasantly on the nose. Of course Dembélé’s work here was long since done: an early goal to settle the game before being withdrawn by Luis Enrique on 70 minutes with a hint of a knock. And yet, on a night defined by screeching and suffering, brusque tackles and hard lines, Dembélé somehow managed to elevate himself above the fracas, the only man playing the game on the easy setting.

Liverpool fans object to the suggestion this season has been anti-climactic, as though that somehow diminishes their achievement, but it is not a criticism to point out no side has come close to staying with them, that the title was effectively won on the January afternoon when Darwin Núñez scored twice in injury time to beat Brentford then Arsenal threw away a two-goal lead to draw against Aston Villa.That was the season in microcosm: Arsenal carelessly squandering points, Liverpool always having enough, turning games their way in the second half.

55 h. ago Scott McTominay bathes in the adoration as Napoli leap clear in title race | Nicky Bandini

Midfielder keeps collecting nicknames – and goals – as he drives his side towards a title that would be his ownScott McTominay could have said anything and a whole city still would have loved him: the man who fired Napoli clear at the top of Serie A with four rounds of games left to go. His first-half strikes delivered a 2-0 win over Torino on Sunday. He had scored the only goal as Napoli won away to Monza in their previous fixture, and two out of three in a rout of Empoli before that.Carrying his team towards the finish line, in other words, though McTominay has been decisive from the start. He scored within 28 seconds of coming off the bench for his home debut in September and his goals have broken seven 0-0 deadlocks since then. No player in Serie A has done this more.

59 h. ago Premier League and FA Cup semis: 10 talking points from the weekend

Palace’s best-paid player shows his class, Ipswich meet their fate and Mateo Kovacic sounds a warning In April 1964 a side from north London came to Anfield with Liverpool one good result from winning the league, and conceded five. “Arsenal did little to allay the general suspicion that they were there just to be sacrificed,” Eric Todd wrote in his report for the Guardian. This time it was Tottenham but otherwise, for anyone whose memory stretches back 61 years it was a familiar story. Time and again Spurs meekly surrendered possession in dangerous areas, and while they defended in numbers – which suggests willing – they did so with terrifying inefficiency, which suggests poor organisation. Their focus is now fully on the Europa League, but if Liverpool had been a little more ruthless this would have been truly another real embarrassment in a season full of them. In April 1988 it was Spurs themselves who came to Anfield with Liverpool needing one point to guarantee the title. It had...
