May 8, 2023 PSG Win First Game After Suspending Messi

PSG Win First Game After Suspending Messi

Troyes hosted Paris St-Germain in a match that could see PSG move closer to clinching their 11th Ligue 1 title, and the Parisians did not disappoint, securing a routine victory.

Kylian Mbappe opened the scoring for the reigning champions in the eighth minute before Vitinha doubled their lead midway through the second half.

Xavier Chavalerin managed to pull a goal back for Troyes late on, but PSG quickly responded, adding a third through Fabian Ruiz.

This win puts PSG within touching distance of the title, needing just seven more points to secure a record-breaking 11th French title.

Despite coming into the game with a mixed run of form, having lost three of their previous six fixtures, PSG were dominant throughout, showing their quality even without the suspended Lionel Messi.

With four games remaining this season, PSG sit six points clear of second-placed Lens, and the title race looks to be all but over. Meanwhile, Troyes remained in 19th place, 12 points from safety, and must win all their remaining matches while also hoping for other results to go their way if they are to pull off an unlikely survival.

May 5, 2023 Late Penalty Sees Brighton Secure Dramatic Victory Over Manchester United

Late Penalty Sees Brighton Secure Dramatic Victory Over Manchester United

Manchester United's hopes of qualifying for the Champions League have been dealt a blow as Brighton scored a last-minute penalty to secure a thrilling victory and keep their own European ambitions alive.

Alexis Mac Allister converted the penalty in the 99th minute to settle the game in a dramatic fashion.

Despite still holding the fourth and final Champions League qualification spot, Manchester United are now just four points ahead of Liverpool, who are in fifth place and have played two more games than them.

Brighton's relentless approach finally paid off in the end after Luke Shaw handled the ball, leading to a penalty awarded after a video assistant referee review.

Brighton, currently in sixth place, are now only four points behind Liverpool, and their celebrations at the final whistle contrasted sharply with their defeat by Manchester United on penalties in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley less than two weeks ago.

Both teams had chances in the game, with Antony having a shot go wide for United in the opening seconds, while Marcus Rashford and Antony Martial forced Brighton keeper Jason Steele into crucial saves.

Brighton, buoyed by their recent 6-0 victory over Wolves, played with the flair and energy that has become their hallmark. Kaoru Mitoma missed a couple of good chances, while Danny Welbeck was also unable to convert a promising opening.

In stoppage time, Brighton piled on the pressure, with David de Gea making impressive saves from Mac Allister and Pervis Etupinan, before the winning penalty was finally converted.

Haaland Breaks Premier League Record Goal For The Season

Erling Haaland, the Manchester City striker, has achieved a new Premier League record by scoring the highest number of goals in a single season.

The Norwegian forward scored his 35th league goal of the campaign against West Ham, surpassing the previous record of 34 goals set by Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole.

This is in addition to Haaland's previous record of 32 goals for a 38-game season, which he set during his time with Liverpool in 2017-2018, thus making him one of the most prolific goal scorers in the league's history.

Following the match, Haaland expressed his pride and happiness over his new achievement, saying that it was a special moment for him. He also credited his teammates for their excellent performance, which enabled him to score the goal that broke the record.

Haaland has five more games to add to his tally, and he is eager to focus on each game one by one. He acknowledged the hard work of the team and thanked them for their support, saying that he was happy with the three points earned in the match against West Ham.

The striker's 35th goal of the season came through a delicate finish in the second half of a 3-0 win against the Hammers, which helped City to regain the top spot in the league.

After the game, Haaland received a guard of honour from his team-mates and coach Pep Guardiola, which he described as a "nice feeling" albeit a painful one as he was hit on the back by everyone.
