Emotional night for Carvajal, Lewandowski, Girona relegated

Champions League in 2024, relegation in 2026. Girona have only themselves to blame for everything that happened to them this season. They had a golden opportunity in the final round, but failed to beat Elche. Girona spent most of the match chasing another goal after Arnau Martínez equalized in the 48th minute. In the end, the clubs relegated from La Liga are Oviedo, Girona, and Mallorca. The battle for the European places has also been settled. Celta repeated last season’s achievement by qualifying for the Europa League, while Getafe secured Spain’s Conference League spot.

Kane scores a hat-trick for another trophy in Germany

Vincent Kompany arrived to Munich two years ago. Since then, the former Manchester City defender won two Bundesliga trophies, one Super Cup and tonight, he won the DFB Pokal after a 3-0 win over Stuttgart. The only missing trophy now is the Champions League. All this can be said for Harry Kane. Former Tottenham striker arrived a year earlier and waited a bit for his first trophy but now they just keep coming. He singlehandedly dismantled Cup holders Stuttgart and earned another trophy with a hat trick. Considering Bayern’s domination in Germany, it looks unbelievable, but this is the first domestic double (Bundesliga and German Cup) for the Bavarians since 2020. To be precise, this was Munich’s first cup final since going all the way against Bayer Leverkusen (4-2) in 2019/20. The Bavarians have also finished runners-up on four occasions, but when Harry Kane is in form, they rarely loose.Harry Kane’s hat-trick in the DFB Pokal final takes him up to 61 goals in all competitions for Bayer..

Inter avoid defeat after trailing by two goals in Bologna

It is obvious that Bologna enjoy hosting Inter at the Renato Dall’Ara. The team from Emilia-Romagna clearly have the formula for dealing with the Nerazzurri, at least on home soil. True, today’s match carried no real competitive significance, which allowed us to watch an open and entertaining game, and Bologna came very close to taking all three points once again (3-3). The Rossoblu are now unbeaten in four of their last five home matches against Inter. It all started in the 2021/22 season when Bologna won 2-1. That was their first victory over the Milan giants in 20 years, and since then they have regularly troubled them. Inter’s only away win during that stretch came in March 2024 (1-0).Despite all of that, it was clear from the start that this was one of those matches where there will be goals. Both teams played without calculations, and it quickly became obvious we were in for a high-scoring affair, which is exactly what happened. In a way, it was the perfect farewell match for the..
