"The European soccer weekend again delivered plenty to talk about across the top leagues ... where do we begin? How about at Anfield, where a back-and-forth brawl of a game ended with Man City victorious, Liverpool in chaos and Dominik Szoboszlai sent off after a healthy dose of VAR confusion. Meanwhile the big game of the weekend in France -- Le Classique -- ended with Paris Saint-Germain putting five past rivals Marseille to reassert themselves in the title race."
"The final half hour -- bookended by Dominik Szoboszlai, first with a ballistic masterpiece, then by a red card that makes little footballing sense -- was as chaotic and eventful as you've likely ever seen. The upshot is that City went from being nine points back to six points back. With the head-to-head clash with Arsenal scheduled for the Etihad on April 18, they have every right to continue to believe."
Manchester City defeated Liverpool at Anfield in a chaotic match that featured Dominik Szoboszlai's brilliant free kick and a controversial red card after VAR intervention. The result cut City's deficit to six points and preserved belief ahead of the April 18 Etihad meeting with Arsenal. Paris Saint-Germain routed Marseille 5-0 to reassert themselves in the Ligue 1 title race. Manchester United continued to win under interim manager Michael Carrick, prompting debate about his future. Barcelona's Lamine Yamal earned further praise. Inter Milan's Federico Dimarco received recognition, Arsenal's Viktor Gyökeres is settling in, Bayern Munich won again, and Real Madrid were lifted by Kylian Mbappé.
