Season 23 Week 21 processing ...

a Dani Alves header on 34 minutes has made it

Barcelona 2 Espanol 0

and the home side and league leaders now look pretty sure of getting all three points even at this early stage of the game, unless Espanol can find a miracle from somewhere.

a few dismissals today and we have to add Newcastle's Jan Vertonghen to the list on 35 minutes.

Liverpool 2 Leeds 0 Downing.
Ajax 0 Feyenoord 1 Benteke strikes again on 36 minutes in a crucial game.

and it looks like it might be Benteke's last game for Feyenoord as he is strongly linked with a move to Chelsea this week.

Boca 1 Union 1 Cardetti
Nantes 2 Lyon 1 Kaka
Ajax 1 Feyenoord 1 Janssen

and we have news of a goal in one of our big Premiership games, this time at Charlton so lets go over to Steve May for an update...

Jubilation and then the f word in the space of about 1minute lol

City have been very impressive in this opening half and have deservedly taken the lead with a powerful header from Edin Dzeko so after 38 minutes it is now

Charlton 0 Man City 1

Hibs 2 Celtic 0 Maldonaldo

Banstead 3 Chesterfield 0 Tutte
Portland 1 Cosmos 2 Chevanton

and another goal at Real Madrid to report...

Karim Benzema has made it

Real Madrid 2 Valencia 0

after 39 minutes and it looks like that's it to be honest as Valencia have offered very little so far.

Jena 2 Uerdingen 0 Eggimann
Fiorentina 0 Ancona 3 Totti
Dundee 0 Inverness 1 Charisteas after 40 minutes.

Looks like we are struggling to cope with the pressure or having a cup hangover!!

Come on fellas, do we not want this!

Paris 1 Lens 2 Delporte
Alania 0 CSKA 2 Adriano

Palmeiras 0 Santos 2 Ronaldo on 43 minutes still banging em in during his last season.

and Ian Cheeseman has another goal to report...

Mesut Ozil has confirmed the home side's total dominance of this game and after 43 minutes it is now

Schalke 2 Bremen 0

and things continue to go for Real Madrid as Lucas Moura heads them into a 3-0 lead over disappointing Valencia

Real 3 Valencia 0

and just as I say disappointing Valencia strike back through Jonas to make it

Real 3 Valencia 1

right on half time.

that's the end of the first half, we're taking a short break and will leave you with these comments from the managers involved in today's games...

come on whoever is playing Bayern

Am I allowed to slap a player or players?


Need to do something to get that front 3 firing, no more mr nice guy at least one of them has just  45 mins to save their Fulham careers 

Harsh but fair they earn enough

Really need a strong second half, not performed in the first half by all accounts.

Need to follow the example of the other lot at Nantes who are performing admirably against a strong Lyon side.

Come on boys, it is essential we get at least a point today.

Nice and steady for Barcelona, looks like it'll be going to the last day of season! Flamengo need to pull their finger out and start playing!

Simple team talk at Inter. Win!!

Come on Watford, need a result!

Could do with a favour from will, no points for united please!
