By Soccer

FIFTY ONE GAMES UNBEATEN RUN that saw Xabi Alonso and Bayer Leverkusen lift the Meisterschale after an unbeaten season, reach the DFB Pokal final and Europa League final was ended by Gasperini and Atalanta on Wednesday. The Italian side completely outclassed Leverkusen to clinch the Europa League that many thought could be going Leverkusen’s way. Atalanta BC had a plan to stop Leverkusen by playing a high pressing football with each man to one player, which made Leverkusen suffer because they weren’t able to play in their rhythm, but they had another plan on the other end of the pitch in Ademola Lookman. The Nigerian sensation stepped up his game and put up a fine display which had to be perfect and scored a hat trick to perfectly execute the whole Gasperini masterplan.

Spurs’ woes continue as winless run persists at Anfield

By Soccer

Tottenham Hotspur walked out of Anfield with the door of their Champions League hopes closing slowly, as Ange Postecoglou’s side tripped and fell flat on their faces at Anfield.
