In Germany, it's all over. After a disastrous sport, Borussia Dortmund's huge final day blocked the UEFA Champions League venue with Borussia Dortmund, which put them at No. 11 on the table just two months ago.
But there is still a week in England and Spain. The penultimate round has been established for countless seasons as the Premier League and Laliga compete for next year's Champions League finals.
All of this and in this edition’s weekend review, Sam Tighe, Alex Kirkland and Constantin Eckner browsed the weekend’s big gains and highlights in Europe.
Watching Nottingham Forest from the third to seventh on the table from the month-long space, it was tough. After a monotonous draw with relegated Leicester City last weekend, Captain Morgan Gibbs faced the camera and warned his team of risk of wasting "possible situations."
At the time, perhaps appropriate, it was him who scored for the opener in a victory over West Ham United, which kept the tricky trees in the top five - and gained a spot in the next season's Champions League.
For manager Nuno Espíritosanto, it felt like the trademark win in 2024-25. No team scored more first goals in the game than Forest (25), and they were usually able to manage the game and professionally protect the leader. They have deviated from the template over the past month, but come back here, putting a lot of pressure on the game's closing ceremony to secure a three-pointer.
Manchester City's match against AFC Bournemouth (which will be held on Tuesday) is a blur on the final day, but there is at least a clear path back to fifth: defeating Strikersless Chelsea at home, hoping that Hope Aston Villa will be at Manchester United. Last week, even the first part of the program, surpassed the forest, but one of the strangest moments of the weekend - defender Defender Murillo was pushed out at the end of the half and could only reappear in the second half as scheduled replacement Morato was confused - a wonderful illustration of Garibaldis's bond attitude.
It's all in Sunday's game - five clubs!
The West London Derby plays in the sun, ranking eighth in the league (and therefore European qualifications) potential impact, as messy as you might think. The scores moved from 0-1, 2-1 to 2-3, and season player Bryan Mbeumo lost free throws along the way.
Bowen's comfort target at London Stadium was shocked. His heels instinctively waving a hopeful cross, and the heels effectively put it in the air, allowing him to shoot home in an emphasised manner in the next step.
Thanks to Cucurella, Chelsea's Champions League fate is still in its own hands. His heavy header beat André Onana, who was also crucial on the other end, completing three tackles and three interceptions on the lively Amad Diallo. - - Tiger
There were ten games seen in Laliga on Sunday, a rarity in a league that rarely saw two games. This means the best way to enjoy this action is to sit at home and watch Spanish TV's "multi-goal" option: all goals in all competitions when they enter. 28, in fact. Despite the fact that Barcelona was confirmed as the midweek champion and both teams were relegated - the real Valladolid and Las Palmas - their fate has been decided, but there are still many dangers.
Atlético Madrid's finale for the campaign was disappointing, as he beat Real Betis 4-1 to secure a third place minimum requirement for Diego Simeone's side. Below them, the Sports Club won 1-0 in Valencia to fourth place, while Villarreal won 3-2 in Barcelona to secure Spain's fifth Champions League. They are often in trouble, but Marcellino's team may surprise some Europeans next season. Next to the table, Celta Vigo was unable to book the European League UEFA Europa League, while Rayo Vallecano defeated 2-1. Celta will have to wait until next week; Rayo also makes it very likely that Europe (Europa or UEFA Conference Alliance) is also a great achievement with their limited resources.
In San Sebastián, in his last home game, bid farewell to Real Sociedad for Imanol Alguacil, their most successful coach in 40 years. They beat Girona 3-2 for entertaining (even if meaningless). At the bottom, both teams (Getafe and Alavés) scored three points to ensure safety in another season. Leganés won 1-0 in Las Palmas and they or Espanyol both fell until the last day.
It's like this: a breathless night full of goals and moments, almost Everything decided in Laliga, and there is a weekend.

Is this season a surprise for Barcelona?
Alex Pareja talks about the Barcelona champion Laliga campaign under Hansi's flick, even though they ended an unbeaten run in the victory over Villarreal.
Barcelona players have been celebrating the past few days after ending their league title on Thursday, while Villarreal is focusing on major awards: Champions League qualification. The result is a pleasant game, exuding breathing mass before Tajon Buchanan’s 80th minute championship – like Lamine Yamal’s textbook.
There are many competitors here. Against Yamal, Yamal, berenguer of track and field, Christantus Uche of getafe, and even Kylian Mbappé of Real Madrid. The weekend's goal was Raul García's unexpected Maradona-style effort for Osasuna, tying the defender knots before the goalkeeper beat the goalkeeper.
Alvarez has been outstanding at Atlético in his first season and has probably achieved his best all-round performance in their last home game. It began with one of his best of 28 goals this season, free kicks hit the top corner, while the second goal was late to secure a victory. If there is one reason to be excited about Atlettoto in the club's World Cup, it is Alvarez. - Kirkland
Borussia Dortmund was ranked 11th in the Bundesliga rankings, a miles away from the Champions League qualification. Just like the past two seasons, Black yellow Advance May, winning six of seven games, only dropping when champion Bayern Munich attracts the title.
On the final match day, Niko Kovač's side seemed promising, although they still lag behind SC Freiburg and Eintracht Frankfurt, which are the two remaining Champions League games. Freiburg and Frankfurt met at Europa-Park Stadium so at least one team had to lose points while Dortmund faced Holstein Kiel in Kiel's final match in the Bundesliga before returning to the second division.
Guests from the north made it easy for Dortmund to be in front of the noisy crowd inside Signal Iduna Park, who admitted to Serhou Guirassy's early fines and then dropped ten people just nine minutes later. Carl Johansson's foul Karim Adeyemi, who stole the ball high and was about to shoot from a promising position and immediately showed the red card that rejected the chance to score.
Dortmund took the game from there and won 3-0, while Frankfurt beat Freiburg 3-1. This means that Borussia has been eligible for the Champions League for the eleventh consecutive year. Considering that the 53-year-old had basically a trial in the second half of the season after replacing Nurişahin, it was his job at the 53-year-old.
Despite Dortmund's re-entry entry into Europe, Leipzig will miss international games for the first time since arriving in the Bundesliga in 2016. The Xavi Simons-led team once again did not fire on all cylinders and allowed Stuttgart and allowed Stuttgart, who would play the German Cup in Saturday's final, was a lot of opportunity. It's time to reset in Red Bull Arena.
His 17th goal of the season was art, and although his goalkeeper Oliver Baumann did his best to make one or two try, he curled the ball beautifully and hit the back of the net.
Thomas Müller may have played the final Bundesliga game in PreZero Arena's career against Hoffenheim, but others stole the show. Even though almost everyone in Germany is talking about the possibility of Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz and uniting him with Jamal Musiala, no one should ignore the fact that Olise had a great first season in the German championship. He put Bayern on the board with a nice free kick against Hoffenheim and assisted Joshua Kimmich with a 2-0 score. Bayern eventually won 4-0, and one hour later, Mueller was eliminated. - Ekner
Last week, Hamburg secured their promotion to the Bundesliga after the league suffered a tough absence, and they had called for 55 years before relegation in 2018. In the final match of the 2nd Bundesliga season, Cologne's best position can accompany Hamburg to the highest flight to Germany.
However, it broke his nose because striker Tim Lemperle was involved in a dispute. The 71-year-old caretaker manager Friedhelm Funkel replaced former New York Red Bull coach Gerhard Struber two weeks ago, despite his ten goals this season, but had no choice but to let Lemperle play Kaiserslautern on the bench.
Ultimately, it doesn't matter, the host was on his way to twice win 4-0 in the first 30 minutes. They will join Hamburg in 2025-26, and in the German Bundesliga, Germany's top flight can celebrate the two giants who welcomed the match. - Ekner
This weekend, British football has three helpful moments in each other in 24 hours.
First, Crystal Palace won the first major trophy in their history, defeating Manchester City 1-0 in the FA Cup final, sending fans across generations of tears. Wembley may have never seen such a heartfelt passion and joy.
Next, Everton bid farewell to Goodison Park by 2-0 defeating Southampton. Fans who cherish tickets every moment are decorated in blue, while those who do not gather outside the stadium full time say their farewell. Apparently, some people tried their best to see the last sacred ground - about an hour after full time, a group of supporters were found on the roof.
Shortly after, Leicester City fans made their debut in Jamie Vardy's 500th and last appearance. He achieved a response by winning his 200th goal, which is classic transition and end points. Pre-match decorations anointed his goats. After leading them into the Premier League and then winning a miraculous title and a FA Cup, who can argue with that view? - Tiger
