Season 24 Week 17 processing ...

We now have goals in the games at Schalke and Inter Milan, but lets go to Germany first and Sam Rosen who is watching Schalke for us today...

It's a great day for football here and Mario Gotze has fired the home side into an early lead to make it

Schalke 1 Frankfurt 0

after just 11 minutes.

thanks Sam, and now over to Hazel Irvine in Milan for her report...

it's home advantage here as well after Stephan El Shaarawy shot Inter into the lead on 11 minutes to make it

Inter 1 Napoli 0

and Napoli's highly suspect defence is looking as leaky as ever and it could yet prove to be a very long day for the visitors.

and while all that was happening i'm hearing there has been a goal in our big game at Barcelona, where Real Betis are the visitors, so let's join Ian Dennis for an up to date report...

Lots of goals flying in this week in the big leagues.....

Barcelona have started on fire here with the team on top morale and top form after going top of the table last week they look in no mood to surrender that spot this week, and all that good opening work was put to good use when Llorente popped up to head home on 11 minutes, making the early score

Barcelona 1 Real Betis 0

but it's not over yet with Betis well capable of beating any team on their day.

Flamengo 2 Corinthians 0 Lewandowski header on 12 minutes.

Banstead 1 Barnet 0 Tutte header on 13 minutes.
Sedan 0 Nantes 1 Inler.
Milan 0 Roma 1 Abate.
Inverness 1 Rangers 0 Watson freekick.

Top two sides in Scotland playing each other probably for the title today so good start for John's team.

Get in!  Good start for my French side!

Flamengo 3 Corinthians 0 Necid on 15 minutes.

Flamengo 4 Corinthians 0 Trindade on 17 minutes.

Flamengo going goal crazy again, gonna be very difficult for my own Santos to catch them unless they slip up somewhere it seems.

Great starts for both teams, Flamengo on fire!  

and i'm hearing from Hazel that it is now

Inter 2 Napoli 0

after Cavani scored their second on 17 minutes.

plenty of goals around today similar to last week as players reach optimum conditioning levels at well managed clubs.

Lyon 2 Auxerre 0 Damiao on 19 minutes.

Shame Lyon had that mid-season dip in results really else i'm sure they would be much closer to Nantes than they are currently and maybe even giving Nantes a bit of competition for the title, although Nantes do seem to have the french title sewn up even at this early stage with plenty of games still to play.

Banstead 2 Barnet 0 Heskey header on 20 minutes.

Commentators curse?  Hopefully not, not many big games to play for Nantes either, so to lose it from here would be a disaster.....

Real 2 Deportivo 0 Marcelo Vieira on 23 minutes

we do have Richard Keys watching this game for us but we can not get in contact with him due to technical difficulties other than a text that says Real Madrid are looking awesome and cutting poor Deportivo to pieces as will.

Real 3 Deportivo 0 Hazard on 25 minutes.
