In a dominating display, Chelsea triumphed over West Ham with Jackson’s brace sealing a resounding victory in the Premier League clash.

Premier League 2024: Haaland nets four as Man City routs Wolves 5-1.

Man City Erling Haaland struck four times as it remained on course to win a fourth successive Premier League title with a 5-1 thrashing of Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.

Hours after Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Bournemouth, Pep Guardiola’s men responded with a resounding victory that pulled them to within a point of the North Londoners at the top of the standings, but with a game in hand.

Arsenal has 83 points with two fixtures remaining in one of the tightest title races in years, while City has 82, but three games to play.

“Nine (more) points, we will be champions. Seven points, six points, three points, Arsenal will win the Premier League,” Guardiola said.

Haaland — who boosted his league-scoring lead to 25 with the first four-goal haul of his career — converted from the penalty spot in the 12th minute after Rayan Ait-Nouri’s late tackle took Josko Gvardiol down in the box.

The 23-year-old Norwegian doubled City’s lead in the 35th when he soared high to head home at the far post from Rodri’s cross.

“That’s a beautiful goal. My father (Alf-Inge Haaland, who played for City) is going to be happy with that one,” Haaland told Sky Sports. “A nice celebration, I enjoyed that one.

“Not bad, 25 goals this season. We keep going.”

Haaland converted again from the spot just before halftime after he was clipped from behind by Nelson Semedo in the area. Hwang Hee-chan pulled one back for Wolves in the 53rd with the visitors’ only shot on target.

But a minute later, Haaland smothered any hopes of a comeback with his fourth.

The goal-scoring machine — who missed nearly two months earlier this season with a foot injury but seems to be finding form again at the perfect time — controlled a diagonal pass in the air from Phil Foden before slicing inside and curling a shot into the far corner.

“He was injured, to get back to best form you need time,” Guardiola said. “But happy for his performance, for his exceptional goals, in the penalties as well because we know how some days it is not easy … really pleased for him.”

Substitute Julian Alvarez completed City’s scoring in the 85th minute.

Wolves, whose manager Gary O’Neil was serving a touchline ban, looked nothing like the team that edged City 2-1 earlier in the season.

“I thought we damaged ourselves mostly,” said O’Neil, whose squad is 11th in the standings. “If you make errors against these guys, they’ll punish you. We made too many errors and Manchester City was very clinical.

“It was a tough afternoon, which we knew potentially it would be.”

City plays two away games at Fulham and Tottenham Hotspur then closes the season at home against West Ham United. Arsenal travels to Old Trafford next to play Man City United before hosting Everton on the final day.

WWE Backlash 2024 highlights: A new Bloodline member debuts while Cody, Bayley, and Priest retain.

WWE Backlash 2024 France Live Updates: WWE first-ever PLE following the greatest WrestleMania ever from Lyon, France, delivered high on Saturday night. The night started when an all-out brawl broke up between Kevin Owens, Randy Orton and the Bloodline, forcing the SmackDown General Manager to make the match a streetfight. Kevin Owens was all set to pick up the win before Tama Tonga’s brother and the newest Bloodline member, Tanga Loa, debuts to help the Bloodline pick up the win. In the second match, Bayley faced some trouble against Naomi and Tiffany Stratton but still managed to retain her WWE Undisputed Women’s Championship in the end.

In the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match, despite his best efforts and crowd support, Jey Uso once again came up short as the champion Damien Priest, with the help of interference from Judgement Day, picked up the win. However, tension was high between the Judgement Day members after the match. In the night’s first and only title change, Bianca Blair and Jade Cargill def the Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane) after a hard-fought match.

The night ended with Cody Rhodes’ WWE Undisputed Championship title on the line against the challenger AJ Styles. AJ Styles took the champion to his limits, but Cody somehow managed to come out on top to earn a monumental victory and retain his WWE Undisputed Championship in his first-ever title defence.

IPL 2024 match today: MI vs KKR head-to-head record, stats, most runs, and most wickets list in IPL.

MI vs KKR: Mumbai Indians are looking to bounce back after a disappointing show with the bat while Kolkata Knight Riders are looking to get closer to the top of the table

After a disappointing batting performance in the last game, the Mumbai Indians will look to make amends against the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium on Friday. The five-time former champions have had a tempestuous run in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 and are now hanging on by the thread of results from other teams.

Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) Points Table.

KKR, on the other hand, pulverized the Delhi Capitals in their last encounter with sharp performances in bowling and batting. The twice former winners at the tournament began by outclassing DC batters courtesy of some great bowling by Varun Chakravarthy who scalped three wickets that helped the team restrict their opponents to 153 runs. The chase was inclined in KKR’s interest from the very beginning as opener Phil Salt smashed 68 runs off 33 balls to propel his team to victory and climb to no.2 in the points table.

The titanic batting unit of MI consisting of Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Hardik Pandya, Suryakumar Yadav, and Tilak Verma fell cheaply against the LSG. The hosts will look to get their act together to secure the crucial two points with their playoff chances already looking bleak.

Phil Salt (wk), Sunil Narine, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Angkrish Raghuvanshi, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy, Mitchell Starc, Anukul Roy

Pitch Report

The Wankhede Stadium is considered a suitable pitch for both batting and bowling. While the ground offers and quick outfield, the surface provides good bounce to the bowlers as well. The ground has hosted 113 runs so far where 61 matches have been won by team batting second. Therefore, skippers from both teams are expected to bowl first.

Head-to-head

Both teams have met each other on 32 occasions over the years where Mumbai have heavily dominated the head-to-head with 23 wins in their favour.

Fantasy XI

Phil Salt (wk), Sunil Narine, Suryakumar Yadav, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rinku Singh Tilak Verma, Andre Russell, Varun Chakravarty, Jasprit Bumrah, Piyush Chawla, Mitchell Starc

Did you know?

The lowest total recorded at the Wankhede Stadium was in 2008, during a clash between MI and KKR. The hosts blew the Knight Riders away for a score of 67 and then chased the total down inside their powerplay.

By falling 2-0 at Chelsea on Thursday, Tottenham slumped to a second loss to a London rival in the space of four days in the Premier League — after a 3-2 home defeat to Arsenal in the north London derby last weekend.

In between those losses came confirmation that England will have just four places in next season’s expanded Champions League, and not five.

That’s another blow to Spurs, who are fifth and stayed seven points behind fourth-place Aston Villa with one game in hand. They still have to play Liverpool and Manchester City in their remaining four games so it is looking increasingly unlikely they will close the gap to Villa.

Headed goals by Trevoh Chalobah in the 24th minute and Nicolas Jackson in the 72nd were enough for Chelsea, which could yet salvage a place in one of the minor European competitions from what has been an underwhelming Premier League campaign for a squad assembled at a cost of more than $1 billion.

Conference League semi-final first leg: Olympiacos upset Aston Villa.

Chelsea climbed above West Ham and into eighth place, two points behind Newcastle and three behind Manchester United in sixth. Two of those three teams will likely be playing in either the Europa League or Europa Conference League next season.

Tottenham has now won just one of its past 34 away league games against Chelsea, making it one of the most one-sided top-flight fixtures. The sole victory came in 2018, when Mauricio Pochettino — the current Chelsea manager — was in charge of Spurs.

Chalobah got on the end of a free kick by Conor Gallagher to loop a header over Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and into the net to give Chelsea the lead. It was another goal conceded from a set piece by Spurs and that is becoming a recurring issue under manager Ange Postecoglou.

Jackson, who had a shot partially saved by Vicario and subsequently cleared off the line by Micky van de Ven in the first half, eventually got his goal when he was quickest to react after Cole Palmer’s free kick rebounded out off the crossbar. Jackson did well to head the ball over two Tottenham defenders who were retreating toward their goal line.

Tottenham is six points clear of Manchester United and might have to settle for a fifth-place finish, which would earn a spot in next season’s Europa League.

Conference League semi-final first leg: Olympiacos upset Aston Villa.

Greek side won 4-2 at Aston Villa Park to leave Unai Emery’s men facing an uphill battle to qualify for the final

The Greek Super League team Olympiacos defeated Aston Villa 4-2 in an incredible first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League semi-final, giving them a two-goal edge when they return to Athens.

The 47-time Greek Premier League winners ruined the festivities at Villa Park, which was hosting a European semifinal for the first time since 1982, with an outstanding exhibition of counterattacking football.

Villa now has a difficult challenge ahead of them if they are to make it to the final when they go to Greece on Thursday, May 9, for the second leg.

How the match unfolded

In Villa’s most recent game, a 2-2 draw at home against Chelsea, Unai Emery made three changes to the starting lineup.

Robin Olsen started in goal while Emiliano Martinez was serving a one-match suspension. Moussa Diaby took Youri Tielemans’ place in midfield due to an injury, and Clement Lenglet was chosen over Pau Torres in defense.

In the sixteenth minute, Ayoub El Kaabi scored for Olympiacos as he raced on to a deft flick by Chiquinho and finished past Olsen. After a VAR review, the decision to rule someone out for offside was reversed.

Aston Villa

The Greek team, making their first-ever appearance in a European semifinal, extended their lead just before the half-hour mark. Chiquinho contributed significantly to the build-up once more before Daniel Podence, a former Wolverhampton Wanderers winger, set up El Kaabi for his second goal, giving the visitors an unexpected 2-0 lead.

Villa responded in stoppage time of the first half to cut the deficit in half after Olympiacos nearly scored a third. After some excellent passing between Matty Cash and Diaby, Ollie Watkins scored his 26th goal of the season overall, firing past Konstantinos Tzolakis.

Early in the second half, Villa Park was bouncing after Diaby’s shot squeezed past Tzolakis from a tight angle to level the score at 2-2.

But within four minutes, Olympiacos were ahead again as this breathless encounter took another twist. El Kaabi completed his hat-trick from the penalty spot after a handball by Douglas Luiz. 

Aston Villa

The visitors added a fourth on 67 minutes when Santiago Hezze’s long-range shot took a big deflection off Ezri Konsa, leaving Olsen helpless to stop it.

There was still time for more drama when Villa was awarded a penalty with nine minutes remaining. Substitute Jhon Duran was brought down by David Carmo, giving Douglas Luiz the chance to make amends from the spot – but the Brazil international struck against a post, leaving the home side with a huge task in the second leg in Athens, which comes four days after their Premier League trip to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday.

India leads Bangladesh 3-0 in the series after a 91-run opening partnership between Shafali Verma and Smriti.

With two games remaining, the India women’s team Shafali Verma and Smriti. had an unbeatable 3-0 lead after chasing down 118 with seven wickets remaining.

A significant portion of India’s recent triumphs have been attributed to the opening combination of Shafali Verma and Smriti Mandhana. That was also the case on Thursday when Mandhana and Verma combined for a 91-run opening partnership to help India defeat Bangladesh by seven wickets in the third Twenty20 International in Sylhet. With two games remaining, the visitors had an unbeatable 3-0 advantage.

Shafali Verma and Smriti

Following their bowling-led restriction of Bangladesh to 117/8, Mandhana and Verma quickly achieved the objective with a smooth combination. As was to be expected, Verma was the more dominant partner, hitting eight fours and scoring 51 off just 38 balls. Mandhana made 42 off 47 balls, hitting five fours and one six.

India should be well-prepared thanks to Mandhana and Verma’s runs at the top of the order, especially with the Women’s T20 World Cup set to take place in Bangladesh in September. Being a left-right pair, they complement each other effectively and force bowlers to constantly change their lines. They helped India storm to 59/0 in the opening six overs on Thursday by capitalizing on the field constraints. In the sixth over, Shafali smashed three straight fours against Nahida Akter, contributing to the early flow of boundaries.

By the time that Mandhana and Verma were dismissed in quick succession, the result was all but sealed. Harmanpreet Kaur and Richa Ghosh were the unbeaten batters who completed the formalities.

India’s bowlers also stepped up. Despite Dilara Akter setting a solid foundation for the hosts with a 27-ball 39, they were never able to put the Indians under pressure in the field. Left-arm spinner Radha Yadav was typically economical, conceding just 22 runs in her four overs while also claiming the wickets of Bangladesh skipper Nigar Sultana and Shorifa Khatun. Renuka Singh, Pooja Vastrakar, and Shreyanka Patil finished with a wicket apiece.

The next two T20Is will also be held in Sylhet on May 6 and 9.

Brief scores: Bangladesh 117/8 in 20 overs (Dilara Akter 39, Nigar Sultana 28; Radha Yadav 2/22) India 121/3 in 18.3 overs (Shafali Verma 51, Smriti Mandhana 47; Ritu Moni 1/10). India won by 7 wickets.

  • India T20 WC Squad LIVE Updates: Pathan backs “captain” Rohit!

Irfan Pathan feels Rohit Sharma is currently the best individual to lead the team into the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup

“As far as captaincy is concerned, he is the best leader you have. We always talk about the players, but leadership is a different thing. We saw what happened in this IPL with quite a few captains; it’s not easy. Captaining a side in cricket still holds great value and this is why we always talk highly about Mahendra Singh Dhoni. He has been rated highly by the entire world for the reason that it’s such a tough job, and he made it very simple. And after Mahendra Singh Dhoni, when test matches came, Virat was your best captain ever, the way he took the team in front. So the leadership was there for the world to see how he was making an impact in test cricket. But when it comes to recent white ball cricket, you can’t look beyond Rohit Sharma. He is your best leader, even with the bench strength considered. In the future, they will be keeping an eye on Suryakumar Yadav and Jasprit Bumrah as far as captaincy is concerned. Now we have Hardik Pandya as the Vice Captain, Rishabh Pant is also there in your leadership role group if he gets going because he was there in the leadership role before he got injured. So there are three or four ready guys, but Rohit is the number one.”

India T20 WC Squad LIVE Updates: Sangakkara backs selectors! Amid criticism over the squad selection, former Sri Lanka captain and Rajasthan Royals Director of Cricket Kumar Sangakkara feels India’s squad is strong and balanced.

“It’s an extremely strong squad. They’ve got their batting covered, they’ve got their all-rounders in. They’ve got very high-quality spin and they’ve got very good combinations that they can play. Knowing the conditions there, I’m sure Rahul (Dravid) and Rohit (Sharma) have a good idea of what the squad should be to play the cricket they want in the World Cup. And they’ll be having two or three different combinations, depending on whether they want a deeper batting line-up or more strength in their bowling. But it’s a well-balanced squad, a very strong squad, and India’s always been very strong in international tournaments,” Sangakarra said ahead of the SRH vs RR IPL 2024 match.
