Dembele stunned Arsenal when he swept home a low finish from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's delivery only four minutes into the semi-final first leg. PSG dominated the early stages with a relentless attacking assault, which saw Arsenal keeper David Raya make a superb save from teenager Desire Doue. The hosts survived without further damage to work their way into contention, and once again giant Italian keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, as he was against Liverpool and Aston Villa earlier in the competition, was PSG's hero. He saved brilliantly from Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard either side of the break, while Arsenal saw Mikel Merino's header from a Declan Rice free-kick ruled out for offside. PSG had chances to extend their advantage late on, but substitute Bradley Barcola shot wide and Goncalo Ramos hit the bar.

Arne Slot's side needed only a point to complete the formalities of their coronation, although Spurs briefly threatened a plot twist when former Liverpool striker Dominic Solanke headed them into an early lead The shock jolted Liverpool into action, the title was signed and sealed with three goals before the break that sent their expectant fans into ecstasy at the high point of Slot's spectacular first season in succession to Jurgen Klopp. Luis Diaz turned in Dominic Szoboszlai's pass from close range to put Liverpool level after 16 minutes, the goal given after the Hungarian was initially adjudge to be offside. Any lingering doubts and anxiety were banished eight minutes later when Alexis Mac Allister fired spectacularly past Spurs keeper Guglielmo Vicario from the edge of the area. And Anfield's title party really started when Cody Gakpo was allowed time and space inside the area to turn and score Liverpool's third after 34 minutes. Liverpool laid siege to the Spurs goal in front of the Kop in the second half, Mohamed Salah cutting inside to get on the scoresheet, before accepting a phone to take a memorable selfie after 63 minutes. As Spurs, collapsed, Destiny Udogie turned into his own net under pressure from Salah six minutes later. The win allowed triumphant Liverpool to celebrate a title win in front of their own fans for the first time since 1990, as they last lifted the trophy behind closed doors at Anfield in 2020 during the Covid pandemic.

Pep Guardiola's side set up a Wembley showpiece on 17 May against Crystal Palace at the same time as they relinquished a four-year hold on the Premier League trophy after Liverpool beat Tottenham Hotspur to become champions on Sunday. City were in control from the first whistle on a balmy day in London and will now aim to end a disappointing season on a high by lifting the famous cup trophy for the eighth time in their history. With their supporters outnumbered in the stands, the City players silenced the Forest following inside just two minutes as the impressive Mateo Kovacic found Rico Lewis on the edge of the box and the 20-year-old drilled an unerring finish into the bottom corner. Forest found it difficult to settle in the opening period and City sniffed more opportunities - Omar Marmoush exchanging passes with Jack Grealish before firing over, while Nico O'Reilly dragged an effort wide after showcasing some neat footwork in the build-up. Nuno Espirito Santo's men should have levelled seconds after the restart, though, when Callum Hudson-Odoi rolled a pass across the box, but Anthony Elanga, on his 23rd birthday, sent his first-time effort wide of the post from eight yards. City made the former Manchester United winger pay dearly for that miss as six minutes into the second half they doubled their lead - centre-back Josko Gvardiol rising highest to power home a header from Omar Marmoush's corner. Forest attempted to claw themselves back into the contest and struck the woodwork an incredible three times. Morgan Gibbs-White rattled the crossbar with a stunning volley, before hitting the post from a tight angle after going round goalkeeper Stefan Ortega. Substitute Taiwo Awoniyi also clipped an effort against the post and once Ortega kept out Nicolas Dominguez's header at full stretch from another opportunity, Forest knew it was not going to be their day as City booked a Wembley return.

After a 2-2 draw in 90 minutes and with penalties appearing inevitable, the Barcelona defender took possession of the ball 22 yards out and drilled a fine effort into the bottom corner. Barca had been by far the better side in the first half and led through Pedri's fantastic first-time strike from outside the box after Lamine Yamal's cut-back. Real improved dramatically after Kylian Mbappe came on as a substitute, and he curled a free-kick, which he had won, into the bottom corner via the inside of the post. Aurelien Tchouameni then headed Real ahead from Arda Guler's corner. But Barcelona levelled when Ferran Torres ran onto Yamal's long ball and rounded goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois before slotting in. Hansi Flick's side thought they had a chance to win it in injury time when they were awarded a penalty for a Raul Asencio tackle on Raphinha but the decision was overturned after a long video assistant referee check. That meant the game went to extra time, when Kounde's fourth goal of the season was the difference. The build-up to the game had been dominated by scrutiny of the match officials - and it finished with Antonio Rudiger and Lucas Vazquez being shown straight red cards from the Real bench. That was the last meaningful act of a first Clasico final in a major tournament since 2014, when Gareth Bale scored a fantastic late winner for Real in a 2-1 victory. England midfielder Jude Bellingham was also sent off after the final whistle for angrily confronting officials.

Ipswich needed to beat the Magpies and hope West Ham lost at Brighton to delay their inevitable fall into the Championship, but their hopes of getting the result they needed were dealt a major blow late in the first half when Ben Johnson was sent off for a second bookable offence. Bruno Guimaraes had had a close-range effort disallowed midway through the half for a foul on goalkeeper Alex Palmer, but Alexander Isak's penalty - awarded following a pitchside review by referee Michael Salisbury - finally broke Ipswich's crumbling resistance deep into added time. It was one-way traffic in the second period and Dan Burn, one of Newcastle's goalscorers in last month's Carabao Cup final victory over Liverpool, doubled their advantage 10 minutes after the restart with a point-blank header from Kieran Trippier's looping cross. Second-half substitute Will Osula headed home his first Premier league goal with 10 minutes remaining as the Magpies marked the return of head coach Eddie Howe - who had missed the previous three games with pneumonia - with a resounding win which lifts them up to third in the table. Ipswich's defeat means this is the first time in Premier League history that all relegations have been confirmed with as many as four games remaining.
