      Premier League final day LIVE SCORES: Man City AHEAD, Villa down to TEN, Forest holding Chelsea, Newcastle level

      by

      THE final day of the Premier League is here, and the action is UNDERWAY around the Premier League!Manchester City took the first step towards the Champions League, with Gundogan scoring an acrobatic effort to put Guardiola’s side ahead.Newcastle, Chelsea and Nottingham Forest are all level, with the Blues and Forest taking on each other at the City Ground.Aston Villa have a big task ahead of them in the second 45 minutes, as Emi Martinez was shown red for a last ditch challenge on Rasmus Hojlund at Old Trafford.The top seven are guaranteed to be playing European football next season, but there is a scenario that eighth could also join, which Brighton and Brentford are battling for.Elsewhere, Trent Alexander-Arnold is on the bench in his final Liverpool appearance, as the side will lift the Premier League trophy against FA Cup winners Crystal Palace TODAY.Kick off times: 4pm BSTTV channels: Sky Sports Premier League and Sky Sports Main EventLive streams: NOW TVCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITSFollow ALL the action from the final day with our live blog below…KICK-OFF!Back underway at the City Ground.The last – and biggest – 45 minutes of the campaign!Copy linkCopiedBit of a break…Delay to the second half kick-offs in the games involving the Champions League hunters.That Emi Martinez red card meant the half time whistle at Old Trafford was a bit later than the rest.And the Premier League are determined that all games involving those in contention will kick off at the same time…Copy linkCopiedFrom Jack Rosser at Portman RoadThere has been a real lack of intensity from both sides at Portman Road, but the Hammers are ahead thanks to an Ipswich clanger.The real star of the first half has been 40-year-old Lukasz Fabianski.The Pole, playing his final game for the club, is putting on a display to show he’s still got it.There have been a couple of fine balls over the top, two very good saves and even a Cruyff turn.Copy linkCopiedHow we look at the breakThe positions from 1-7 have stayed the same throughout that 45 minutes and look the same at the break.The only change in the games that matter is Brentford finding themselves in 8th spot as they lead Wolves and Brighton trail at Tottenham.That could prove crucial depending on other results and Chelsea in midweek!Forest knew they needed to win and needed Newcastle or Villa to step up.The Toon have been lacklustre and Villa are now down to 10 men, yet both games are still 0-0.Is it written in the stars for Nuno and co?Copy linkCopiedFrom Dave Kidd at the City Ground It’s been anxious, fractious stuff at the City Ground with the height of the stakes all too apparent for both Forest and Chelsea. Pedro Neto and Chris Wood have squandered close-range volleyed chances and Anthony Elanga had a penalty shout turned down after a tangle with Cole Palmer.But it’s very much nil-nil with a big 45 to come. Copy linkCopiedFrom Martin Blackburn at Old TraffordHas Emi Martinez just blown Aston Villa’s chances of Champions League football?His rush of blood as he raced out to body check Rasmus Hojlund earned a red card – and has left his team in big trouble.They weren’t performing at all with 11 men either and are lucky to still be on terms. A huge effort is needed from them from here.Copy linkCopiedAcross the grounds As for the rest of the league, here’s how the matches shape-up at half-time: Bournemouth 0-0 LeicesterFulham 0-1 Man CityIpswich 0-1 West HamLiverpool 0-1 Crystal PalaceMan Utd 0-0 Aston VillaNewcastle 0-0 EvertonNottm Forest 0-0 ChelseaSouthampton 0-1 ArsenalTottenham 1-0 BrightonWolves 0-1 BrentfordCopy linkCopiedLatest updates – Arsenal break deadlock Arsenal is now in the lead!Kieran Tierney, making his final game for the Gunners before rejoining his childhood club Celtic, taps in at the near post after Ben White crosses low into the area.What a fitting way to leave Arsenal.Wolves 0-1 BrentfordSouthampton 0-1 ArsenalNewcastle 0-0 EvertonLiverpool 1-0 Crystal PalaceTottenham 1-0 BrightonCopy linkCopiedHT: Nottingham Forest 0-0 ChelseaGoalless at the break in a pretty nervy and first half, which has made it rather dull.But it’s still all to play for after the break!Copy linkCopiedNewcastle 0-0 Everton – HALFTIME David Moyes’ men have played the role of frustrators expertly. Newcastle United’s key men have had little space to operate, with a spew of corners sourcing their best chances. As it stands, the result will confirm Champions League status. Copy linkCopiedNottingham Forest 0-0 ChelseaCucurella drags down Elanga in front of the dugouts, yet still no yellow card…One minute added on as the floated free kick is pretty awful and straight to Sanchez.Copy linkCopiedMan Utd 0-0 Aston Villa45+1. Emiliano Martinez is sent off!!The Aston Villa goalkeeper – so often brilliant, so often stupid – has done it again, ending a first half in which he has been excellent with a moment of utter madness.Matty Cash’s woeful backpass from halfway is seized upon by Rasmus Hojlund but, with Martinez miles out of his goal, the striker’s first act is to push the ball left past the keeper.What follows is absurd with Martinez launching himself straight at the Dane, clattering into him at full force.Referee Thomas Bramall is straight over with the red card, and there can be few complaints – despite the fact that Hojlund’s touch is so heavy.This is likely to be Martinez’s last game for Villa, and it’s ended 45 minutes early and in ridiculous fashion.Copy linkCopiedNewcastle 0-0 Everton45 – Isak unable to etch his multi-facted dangerousness into this game yet. Everton centre-halves continue to marhsall him out of the danger zones as Barnes is unable to find him across the ball after a wonderful Guimarães back heel cuts the Toffees apart. One minute added. Copy linkCopiedFulham 0-1 Man City43. The Cottagers go close again with half-time looming.Tom Cairney – who is looking like prime Kevin De Bruyne – sprays a pass out to Harry Wilson on the right. He cuts inside, fires, and forces Ederson into a sharp save.Andreas Pereira is first to the rebound, only to shoot into the side netting.Copy linkCopiedNottingham Forest 0-0 Chelsea42. MASSIVE CHANCE for Chris Wood!So, so nearly a huge goal before the break and he’ll be kicking himself not to have it.He’s been crying out for service all afternoon and gets it when Aina curls a terrific ball into the box from the right.Sanchez comes off his line to claim the low ball in but Wood nips in ahead of him and makes contact but diverts it a yard over!Copy linkCopiedIpswich 0-1 West Ham43. West Ham grab the lead at Portman Road shortly before the break!Ipswich have enjoyed the better of the first half, but it’s the visitors who have struck first through James Ward-Prowse.It’s a straightforward finish from the midfielder, who steers home right-footed following good work from Jarrod Bowen.The Hammers captain had done well to take advantage of a mistake from his opposite number Sam Morsy before his unselfish act in the box.Copy linkCopiedMan Utd 0-0 Aston Villa39. Aston Villa finally start to edge their way into this encounter.John McGinn has had a couple of sighters in the last few minutes, although hasn’t been willing to put any faith in his right foot.Now the visitors force a corner, although it turns out to be one that doesn’t trouble Altay Bayindir in the United goal.In terms of the Champions League chasing clubs, only Manchester City have found the back of the net. Newcastle’s home game with Everton and the crunch clash between Forest and Chelsea remain goalless.Copy linkCopiedNottingham Forest 0-0 Chelsea39. Ironic cheers around the City Ground as Wood wins a free kick on halfway.That’s taken short and Elanga tries to drive down the left and cut into the box but it’s Palmer doing the defensive work to shove him off the ball and get it clear.Copy linkCopiedLatest updates – Liverpool trail, Brentford up to 8thDean Henderson keeps Palace ahead. Luis Diaz spins and shoots after Mo Salah floats a beautiful pass into his path, but Henderson saves with his legs and the ball travels behind for a corner that is easily cleared.As he attempts to leave his impact on the game, Diaz has already had three opportunities.Wolves 0-1 BrentfordSouthampton 0-0 ArsenalNewcastle 0-0 EvertonLiverpool 1-0 Crystal PalaceTottenham 1-0 BrightonCopy linkCopiedFulham 0-1 Man City35. Tom Cairney almost gets Fulham back on level terms in West London.The Cottagers captain is unfortunate when his volley crashes into Bernardo Silva, and then he goes even closer when Andreas Pereira tees him for a second go.A trademark left-foot curler follows and is inches wide of Ederson’s left-hand post.Copy linkCopiedNewcastle 0-0 Everton37 – Gordon hits the byline with the knowledge he has the immediate advantage on Young with a yellow card and gets his cross in which Mykolenko nicks out for another corner. It follows a series of corners from Tonali, with Botman seeing two efforts stopped by Pickford. Copy linkCopiedFrom Martin Blackburn at Old TraffordA surprisingly positive start from United amid the gloom – as they bid to at least give their supporters something to smile about.Mount and Fernandes should both have given the home side an early lead while sub Dalot struck a post.But as we know, United don’t score nearly enough goals –  and fans will be starting to feel like they’ve seen this movie before.Villa have yet to get going. Copy linkCopiedNottingham Forest 0-0 Chelsea31. First yellow card of the game and it’s Elliot Anderson who picks it up.His tenth of the season as he wiped out Noni Madueke on halfway.The Forest fans unhappy about that one. Not so much he received a yellow as it was reckless, but that Chelsea have maybe got away with one or two before that.Hopefully that sparks the game into life a touch.Copy linkCopiedNottingham Forest 0-0 Chelsea29. What a chance – and what a miss!Chelsea catch Forest a bit out of position at the back and Palmer finds himself out on the right.His cross in with his weaker right foot is a cracker and Neto – on the stretch and finishing awkwardly – can’t keep the ball down six yards out and blazes well over!Copy linkCopiedNewcastle 0-0 Everton31 – The pace quickens as Livarmento cuts inside and mustards his pass to Tonali. The Italian is urged to shoot, which he obliges and Pickford answers his call to action with a parry that Isak can’t rebound in as the Everton goalkeeper recovers quick. Copy linkCopied More

      Why has Gary Neville been banned from Nottingham Forest for final day of Premier League season?

      by

      THE Premier League season will come to an end today, and it promises to be a thrilling day of action.The top and the bottom have already been finalised, with just the European spots still to play for.Nottingham Forest have the chance to cap off a stunning season wth Champions League footballCredit: PAFIVE teams remain in the hunt to join Liverpool and Arsenal in next season’s Champions League.Manchester City, Newcastle, Chelsea, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest all have a chance of qualifying for Europe’s elite competition on the final day.The standout game comes at the City Ground with Nuno Espírito Santo’s side hosting top-five rivals Chelsea.Forest need to BEAT the Blues to stand any chance of the Champions League, while a win for the London outfit would guarantee their spot.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLSky Sports have the rights to broadcast the blockbuster clash, but one key figure has been banned from attending.Manchester United legend and commentator Gary Neville has been denied entry to the stadium – SunSport brings you the reason why.Why has Gary Neville been banned from Nottingham Forest?Neville has been banned from commentating at the City Ground for Forest’s Champions League decider against Chelsea this afternoon after the former England right-back slammed the club’s owner, Evangelos Marinakis.Two weeks ago, the Sky Sports figure criticised the Forest chief’s “absolutely scandalous” on-pitch row with boss Nuno in the final minutes of the 2-2 draw with Leicester on May 11.Most read in FootballMarinakis was furious that Forest’s medical staff did not recognise the extent of striker Taiwo Awoniyi’s injury when the Nigerian collided with a post.Awoniyi was subsequently placed in an induced coma after undergoing surgery for a ruptured intestine.When he saw the confrontation, Neville said: “What the Forest owner has just done on the pitch over at the City Ground is absolutely scandalous.”If I was Nuno, I’d be going and having a very strong word with him, because that is an absolute scandal.”He’s just qualified them for a European competition, and from where that club’s been, and to be remonstrated with on that pitch in front of the club’s fans is an absolute joke.”Neville later added on X: “Scandalous from that Forest owner. Nuno should go and negotiate his exit tonight with him! The Forest fans, players and manager do not deserve that.”Forest hit back, using the club’s social media accounts to implicitly accuse Neville of having pushed “fake news online”, adding: “Baseless and ill-informed outrage for the purposes of personal social media traction serves no one — least of all the injured player.’We call on these influential voices to show the same respect for player welfare that they often demand from others. Let concern come before commentary. “At Nottingham Forest, we believe the mental and physical well-being of our players and coaching staff must always take precedence — over media narratives, inflammatory judgements, and certainly over self-promotion.’Forest also insisted there had been no confrontation between Marinakis and the manager.Sky had Neville booked in for the co-commentary gig at the City Ground this afternoon.A spokesman for the channel said: “Sky Sports was subsequently informed by Nottingham Forest that Gary Neville would be denied accreditation to the match.”This was an unprecedented and unwelcome step.”As a result, Sky Sports has decided to revise its production plans and has taken the decision to present the game from Sky Studios in west London.” Read More on The SunNeville has chosen not to partake in Sky’s broadcast of the game at all after being prevented from co-commentating at the City Ground.It is expected he will be replaced, with Sky choosing to still work the match coverage from the ground, even though their show will now be presented from Osterley rather than Nottingham.

      Daniel Levy leaves fans in the dark over Ange Postecoglou’s future in 319-word message to Tottenham supporters

      by

      DANIEL LEVY has offered no clarity over Ange Postecoglou’s future in his end-of-season message to Tottenham supporters.Postecoglou still looks in danger of the sack despite winning Spurs’ first trophy in 17 years with Wednesday’s Europa League final triumph over Manchester United in Bilbao.Daniel Levy hugs Ange Postecoglou after Wednesday’s win in BilbaoCredit: GettyPostecoglou, 59, ended Spurs’ 17-year wait for a trophyCredit: Shutterstock EditorialThe Aussie, who has a year left on his contract with an option of a further 12 months, has admitted he remains in the dark over whether he will be allowed to carry on or not.Chairman Levy, 63, had the chance to clear it up in his annual statement to fans in Spurs’ official programme for Sunday’s final-day hosting of Brighton.And while he thanked Postecoglou and his players for winning the club’s first European title in 41 years, the supremo made no mention of whether the 59-year-old would stay or go.Levy’s letter in full read: “Dear all, we did it. What an unforgettable night it was in Bilbao as we ended our long wait for glory.READ MORE IN FOOTBALL“This is a huge moment for the whole club, an historic achievement that sees us lift our first European trophy since 1984.“This club has been on an incredible journey on and off the pitch since we last won silverware, the League Cup, in 2008 – establishing ourselves as one of the biggest in Europe, moving into our new stadium and experiencing some incredible moments – we knew a trophy was the missing piece.“We’ve come so close on a number of occasions and never quite got over the line – I have never wavered from the belief that success is just around the corner.“I’d like to thank Ange and the players for making this incredible achievement possible and thanks to all of our amazing staff – there is so much hard work that goes on behind the scenes and this moment is for everyone to enjoy.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK“I’d also like to thank you – the fans – for staying with us and carrying that same belief. I know it’s been hard at times and I have shared in that pain and frustration along the way.

We have now tasted success and we are determined to use this as a springboard for more.“Let’s enjoy this moment as a club together, finish the season strong with a win today and go again next year.“Most of all, be proud. Come on you Spurs!”Many fans are hoping Levy U-turns on his plans to axe Postecoglou after the magical night they enjoyed in Bilbao.It was only the second trophy won in Levy’s 25-year reign running the club.Postecoglou himself has publicly stated he wants to carry on.He teased that he would stay for a third campaign in charge when telling supporters at Friday’s trophy parade that “all the best television series, season three is better than season two.”But he then pointed out in his press conference on Saturday that in some of the best series, “the main character is killed off” in the season finale.Postecoglou still has had no discussions with the club hierarchy over his future, and there remains a very real possibility that Sunday’s clash against Brighton could be his last game in charge.Read More on The SunShould the ex-Celtic chief be moved on, the likes of Marco Silva, Andoni Iraola and FA Cup winner Oliver Glasner would all be in the frame to replace him.While Fabio Paratici, expected to return as managing director of football when his worldwide ban ends at the end of next month, would likely have a say over a successor too, should one be required.Tottenham ratings: Bissouma dominates Europa League final as occasion gets to UdogieBRENNAN JOHNSON was Tottenham’s hero as they finally ended their 17-year trophy drought in the Europa League final.Despite being without James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski for the clash in Bilbao, Spurs came up with a massive win against Manchester United.Johnson scored the goal as he helped bundle in from a corner in a tussle with Luke Shaw to send fans into dreamland.But Spurs also owe a huge thanks to Yves Bissouma who was totally dominant in midfield.At the other end, Destiny Udogie struggled to get up to the pace of the match as he was up against Manchester United’s Amad Diallo.Spurs had just three shots, only 27 per cent of the ball, and completed a mere 115 passes over 90 minutes.But it didn’t matter, as United never really looked like finding a leveller to take it to extra time.SunSport’s Henry Tomlinson gave his ratings for the Tottenham players… More
