Birmingham 3 Villa 4 Watkins on 88 minutes. Wow what a game this has been.

Wow indeed 🥳🥳🥳

Argentina

Boca 43 +44
Independente 37 +47
Estudiantes 35 +23
River Plate 34 +26
Argentinos 34 +26 Champions

Top five all won and the leaders remained unbeaten but next week's game at Estudiantes will go along way to deciding the destination of this season's title.

Brazil

Santos 40 +32 Champions
Botafogo 35 +36
Flamengo 32 +23
Fluminense 29 +16

First defeat of the season at Cruzeiro for the leaders cut their lead to five points giving second place Botafogo the chance to move to within two points next week following the visit of Santos to Estadio Martins in what will be a busy week for Botafogo with the Libertadores semi against Flu as well.

Eire

Derry 37 +23 Champions
Bohemians 36 +28
Cherry 35 +22

A win for Bohemians moved tham up into second as Derry and Cherry battled out a goalless draw at Derry's Brandywell stadium.

Premiership

Watford 32 +21 Champions
Charlton 32 +18
Man City 32 +12
Chelsea 28 +13

Seems to be down to the top four now with new leaders this week as current Champions Watford grabbed all three points at Chelsea in a game where the visitors always had the edge, but a great improvement for Chelsea on previous seasons. More dropped points for Man City as they dominated Liverpool but couldn't find the net. Charlton seem to be the team in the best form as they overwhelmed a very good United side at Old Trafford to grab six goals. Cannot call it this season.

Championship

Banstead 39 +20
Palace 35 +18
Soton 29 +10
------
Burnley 28 +11
Norwich 27 +7

Banstead remained unbeaten at the summit but are under investigation following complaints from a rival club concerning their appropriation of Fernando Torres and subsequent sale of Fernando Torres, if found guilty of wrong doing they will suffer a points loss handicap, more news on this next week.

France

Nantes 39 +41 Champions
Etienne 37 +33
Paris 36 +27
Monaco 28 +8

Monaco ended Nantes's winning streak with a well earnt draw this week which seems to have turned the French title race back into a three horse race. Seems Nantes are missing MBappe.

Would like to see Banstead make it to the PL - hopefully be cleared by any enquiry...

With Etienne and Nantes to meet in both weeks 18 and 21, this is far from over.  Definitely a three horse race still....

There are a lot of teams in this game do worse!!  Echo Ben's thoughts here.

Germany

Schalke 39 +32 Champiions
Berlin 33 +24
Leverkusen 31 +23
Gladbach 29 +6

Schalke completed the double over Bayern this week to move six points clear of second placed Berlin who could only draw at Stuttgart. Whilst Leverkusen made it four wins on the bounce with a fine performance at home to Gladbach. Still seems like their could more twists and turns...

Holland

Twente 42 +52
PSV 40 +46
Ajax 36 +45 Champions
Feyenoord 34 +28

A new powerhouse seems to be rising in the Dutch league...

Italy

AC Milan 42 +31
Inter Milan 40 +33 Champions
Juventus 31 +15

Nasty injuries to Eriksen and Rakitic may yet hurt AC Milan's title hopes as the top two continue to brush all challengers aside...

Scotland

Aberdeen 36 +16
Celtic 30 +14 Champions
Falkirk 29 +13
Motherwell 27 +1
Hibs 26 +7

Defeat for Falkirk at Motherwell this week didnt help their chances of winning the title although it may not matter in the long run with both Aberdeen and Celtic in fine form at the moment...

Spain

Real Madrid 43 +67
Atletico Madrid 42 +54
Valencia 37 +25
Barcelona 34 +31 Champions
Real Betis 27 -1

Real Madrid are red hot at the moment having scored no less than thirty goals in their last four league games and conceded just one, okay the opposition hasnt been great but still impressive, they also remain unbeaten but cannot shake off the attentions of Atletico Madrid, who are also in fine form and next week's game at Atletico will be crucial in what is a tough end of season schedule for Real Madrid having to play Atletico, Valencia twice, Betis and Barcelona. Should be exciting...
