LIVERPOOL IS THE PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS

Liverpool  won the 2019/2020  Premier League . The club's title was confirmed after  Chelsea  defeated second placed  Manchester City  2-1 on Thursday night. The Merseyside giants needed one victory to seal the league but City's failure to beat Chelsea means they can't are out of the title challenge. It's Liverpool's first ever Premier League victory, and the first time in 30 years that they've won a top division league title.  As the corona virus pandemic halted the season, Liverpool supporters faced the real possibility that the season could be finished early, with some suggestions that the season would be cancelled altogether. However, this wasn't the case and the Premier League has been able to resume behind closed doors without any fans in the stadiums. TIGERS SUPER SPORTS It's a particularly unusual way to win the league because, with all the measures put in place in response to the virus, the  Reds  will not be able to celebrate their long-awaited

JUVENTUS WIN RECORD NINTH STRAIGHT SERIE A TITLE

Juventus  bagged their ninth consecutive  Serie A  title on Sunday after a 2-0 win over  Sampdoria  that put them over the line with two matches to spare.  Cristiano Ronaldo  scored his 31st goal of the season before  Federico Bernardeschi  sealed the victory in the second half as another Scudetto is heading to  I Bianconeri . Despite Ronaldo missed a late penalty,  Maurizio Sarri 's side moved seven points ahead of second-placed Inter Milan to seal a 36th title. TIGERS UNITED The ' Scudetto ' is Sarri's first and extends a record run which  Antonio Conte  started with three titles from 2012 and  Massimiliano Allegri  continued with the following five. Sarri's team had missed the chance to wrap up the title on Thursday when the ' Old Lady ' of Italian football fell to a 2-1 defeat at  Udinese . But they made no mistake at the  Allianz Stadium  despite being pushed hard by  Claudio Ranieri 's Sampdoria, one of the most in-form teams since the return of Se

REAL MADRID IS THE CHAMPION OF SPAIN AGAIN

Real Madrid   clinched their first   La Liga   title in three years after they edged past   Villarreal   at an empty Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.   Zinedine Zidane   says winning the title this season made him happier than winning the Champions League. Karim Benzema  scored between the legs of  Sergio Asenjo  and added a controversial second from a retaken penalty. In bizarre fashion,  Sergio Ramos  had rolled the first attempt for Benzema to smash in but the effort was disallowed.  Vicente Iborra  pulled one back but it did not stop Real to wrap-up their 34th Spanish title.  Zidane's side have won all 10 of their matches since Spanish football restarted in June. They head into the final day of the season with an unassailable seven-point lead over second-placed Barcelona. Behind closed doors in a 6,000-seat stadium at the club's training complex is perhaps not the stage for the grand crowning Real would have imagined for their first title since 2017. But that did not stop Zidane
