One step closer to a championship, as Manchester City beat Everton 3-2 to take advantage of another match in hand they had to complete, which puts them at the moment on top of the Premier League, coming back from an early Everton goal thanks to an equalizer from Sergio Aguero and a brace from Edin Dzeko, who finished the match with one of the most embarrassing pieces of acting we’ve seen this season.

Match Highlights – Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich
A nice win for Real Madrid (1-0) but not one that makes them feel too safe heading into the second leg against Bayern Munich.
