Cheryshev's injury, Golovin's goal of prestige and the defeat of the Ministry of Justice: the main events of Sunday in European football

PSG title eight and Mbappa achievement

The champion of France was expectedly PSG, which created a serious separation from rivals. In order to guarantee his eighth title, the Parisians did not even have to enter the field, since the main leader’s pursuer, Lille, had not previously managed to beat Toulouse away and lost even the mathematical chances of winning the trophy.

Already with the rank of the reigning champion, the Parisians adopted Monaco. It was symbolic: it was the Monegasques that became the last team that managed to take the gold away from PSG. True, this season the team from the principality solves completely different tasks.

Despite the fact that the wards of Thomas Tuchel, after flying out of the Champions League, hardly tune in to the national championship games and scored only one point in the last three matches of Ligue 1, they had an almost perfect meeting with Monaco.

Kilian Mbappa, who decided not to stand on ceremony with his own team, once again loudly announced himself. Already in the first half, he scored a double, and after the break he scored the third goal. He became for the young striker the 30th in the current season of the French Championship, despite the fact that Mbappé had 27 games.

In addition, Kilian improved the achievement of Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. He reached the level of 30 or more goals in the national championship at the age of 19, while the five-time Golden Ball winners did it at 22. But “Nibbler” Ronaldo, who won the most prestigious football personal award twice, 30 times distinguished himself for PSV in 17.

Another important event was the return of Neymar three months after the injury. The Brazilian came on the replacement immediately after the break, but failed to distinguish himself.

For Monaco, the only pleasant moment was the goal of prestige performed by Alexander Golovin. Ten minutes before the end of the Russians picked up the ball on the line of another's penalty and just shot into the far corner past the goalkeeper. For the national footballer, this ball became the third in the Monegasque and the second in the French Championship.

Worst match for Sulscher

The main sensation of the day's game occurred in Liverpool, where Everton did not leave Manchester United the slightest chance. Of course, it was assumed that the wards of Ule-Gunnar Solskher might have problems after flying out of the Champions League, but still they needed a victory in the fight to get into the top four.

As a result, “MJ” spent one of the worst matches of the year and lost to the opponent in all respects. “Red Devils” was practically not visible on the field, while the hosts rushed from the first minutes to the attack. And already in the debut of Rysharlison with a beautiful blow with “scissors” he brought “Everton” forward.

The guests pushed the game a bit away from their own gates only by the middle of the inning, but as soon as the fans thought that the team was recovering, like David De Gea had to get the second ball out of the gate. This time Gilfi Tor Sigurdsson scored.

During the break, Sulscher made two substitutions at once, but this did not help, and at the beginning of the second half, Everton brought the matter to defeat, and after another ten minutes put the “end” in the match - 4: 0.

“Red Devils” after a win-win series under the leadership of Solshera again experiencing a crisis. They lost the last two matches with a total score of 0: 7, and now they risk not falling into the Champions League next season. In addition, the team has established an anti-record for the number of goals conceded during the season - 48.

“Everton”, on the contrary, at the finish scored a good move. In the last five rounds of the championship, Liverpool won four victories, and not only beat Manchester United, but also Chelsea with Arsenal. At the same time, a week ago, Mark Silva’s wards managed to yield to the Fulham that had already flown out of the Premier League submarine.

Moreover, if the wards of Sulskher took to the field after the departure from the Champions League, the “Gunners” played against the background of positive emotions from reaching the semifinals of the second most important European Cup.

But already in the 17th minute, Arsenal missed from Christian Bentek, who scored the first goal in the Premier League for the year. The hosts were able to recoup only after the break, but then two more goals were conceded. The return goal of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ten minutes before the final whistle failed to save the team from defeat.

However, the first half of the match ended without goals scored. As Jürgen Klopp said after the final whistle, "it was the right moment to slip on a banana peel."

However, the team in a difficult situation managed to snatch the most important three points after the break. An account helped the venerable guests to the standard. After a corner, Jorginho Waynaldum sent a projectile into the net at the touch. And ten minutes before the end, Mohamed Salah earned a penalty, which was implemented by James Milner.
