Saturday, February 28th

23:27 CET - That brings an end to our coverage of what was an absolutely breathtaking day of football, one that surely featured more goals than most that have unfolded this season!

Tomorrow has a lot to live up to, but it could well deliver with some huge games on the agenda, including Arsenal vs Chelsea, Roma vs Juventus and Marseille vs Lyon.

We'll be back to cover it all, so see you then!

23:02 CET - Mory Diaw saved a late penalty from Desire Doue to keep things tense, but PSG kept their cool to seal a 1-0 win that puts four points clear at the top of Ligue 1.

22:55 CET - Atletico Madrid have won it at the death! Julian Alvarez has scored in the final minute of stoppage time to give his side three points that moved them up to third!

22:39 CET - Inter have moved 13 points clear at the top of Serie A, with Hakan Calhanoglu converting a penalty with 20 minutes remaining to give them a comfortable ending to the night.

In France and Spain though, things aren't so comfortable, with PSG only a goal up and Atleti still level as they enter the final stages of their clashes.

22:04 CET - The favourites aren't having it all their own way over in Spain, where Atletico Madrid are being held to a goalless draw by Real Oviedo at the halfway point.

A win would take Diego Simeone's side level on points with Villarreal in third, so expect them to push in the second half.

21:47 CET - PSG are cruising against Le Havre, with Bradley Barcola giving them the lead and only a VAR call stopping Dro Fernandez from getting his first goal for the club.

21:25 CET - It took 30 minutes, but Inter have taken the lead at the San Siro through Federico Dimarco. So far, it's a good response to their mid-week humiliation at the hands of Bodo/Glimt.

21:02 CET - It's fair to say this has been one heck of a Saturday, and it's not over yet, with the Serie A and Ligue 1 leaders in late-night action!

Inter are already underway against Genoa, while PSG are about to kick off against Le Havre. Will we see some late-night upsets? After the day we've had, don't rule anything out.

20:41 CET - In one of the day's less dramatic clashes, Man City have withstood late pressure from Leeds to secure a 1-0 win and move to within two points of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League ahead of the Gunners' clash with Chelsea tomorrow.

20:34 CET - Wow. Der Klassiker by name, Der Klassiker by nature.

German football's biggest game has lived up to its reputation today, with Bayern holding on to claim a 3-2 win and take a huge step towards another Bundesliga title after a simply remarkable second half.

What a day of football this has been!

20:23 CET - The drama just keeps on coming!! Bayern are now back in front thanks to a stunner from Joshua Kimmich!

20:19 CET - 2-2! Daniel Svensson has equalised in Dortmund with seven minutes of normal time to go! Can either side find a winner now?

20:07 CET - Kane has done it again! The Brit has bagged his second of the night, this time from the spot, to complete the turnaround for Bayern!

As it stands, they're going nine points clear at the top of the table.

19:58 CET - Romelu Lukaku is back! The Belgian striker has scored his first competitive goal since June of last year to give Napoli a last-gasp win against Verona!

They looked set to draw 1-1 and continue their poor start to the year, but Lukaku fired in a cross to give them a crucial three points.

19:51 CET - Harry Kane levels things up! The Bundesliga's top scorer has found the back of the net yet again, tapping in a header across goal from Serge Gnabry.

19:23 CET - At half-time in Der Klassiker, Dortmund are leading Bayern 1-0 thanks to a goal from Nico Schlotterbeck.

A win today would be huge for BVB, not only because of the rivalry, but because they'd go within five points of Bayern, and nine clear of third-placed Hoffenheim. The last time Dortmund beat Bayern at home in the league was in November 2018.

18:53 CET - Rennes have edged Toulouse 1-0 in Ligue 1 to move up into the top five. The Bretagne side have now won three matches on the spin, impressively.

Next up in France, Monaco host Angers at the hour, looking to stretch their own unbeaten run in the league to six matches. Later on, PSG will face Le Havre in the late game.

18:48 CET - Over in Serie A, Napoli are leading Verona 1-0 at the break, thanks to goal from Rasmus Hojlund. A win for the Partenopei would see them go one point off second place.

18:40 CET - Up in Scotland, Premiership leaders Hearts have gone seven points clear thanks to a narrow win over Aberdeen this afternoon.

That has only added more importance to tomorrow's Old Firm between Rangers and Cletic: both sides simply must win, but only one can!

18:14 CET - A Lamine Yamal hat-trick has fired Barcelona to an encouraging 4-1 win over Villarreal at home. Robert Lewandowski chipped in with a late goal, too, as Barca go four points clear of Real Madrid, who play on Monday.

It was Lamine's first career hat-trick, and he becomes the youngest player to score one in LaLiga this century, at 18.

18:05 CET - The Premier League has served up a whopping 19 goals across its 16:00 kick-offs, which have now just ended.

Liverpool have thrashed West Ham 5-2 at Anfield to go fifth, while Everton are up to eighth in the table thanks to a priceless 3-2 win at Newcastle.

Meanwhile, in perhaps the game of the day, Burnley incredibly roared back from 3-0 down to level scores before losing 4-3 to Brentford. For a team down in 19th place, they are showing tremendous fight, but that will still sting, especially considering the hosts had an equaliser ruled out by the VAR at the death.
