6:18pm, 17 May 2025【Football】
In the 37th round of the Premier League, in the two games that started early, Chelsea and Aston Villa both successfully scored three points, retaining the hope of competing for the Champions League qualification. Manchester City, whose league delays, has dropped to sixth place and fell out of the Champions League, but according to official Premier League data, the chances of participating in the Champions League are even higher.
As the UEFA Cup final was held a few days later, Manchester United and Tottenham were "preferential" and the two league games have been held in advance. No surprises, the mentality of the two teams remained unchanged, and they easily handed in three points again. In the past 10 rounds of the Premier League, the two teams each won one game, namely Leicester City and Southampton. With such a "bad" posture and such no desires, I don't know if I should be envious or feel helpless.
Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur continue to be closely linked, firmly occupying the last two positions in the relegation zone. Faced with a rare and strange thing that was so funny that it was rare, the knowledgeable Manchester United legend Roy Keane couldn't help it and criticized the two teams for the UEFA Cup, which was really uncomprehensible. As a traditional giant in the Premier League, it is simply a shame to be unable to balance the pressure of multi-line stadiums.
Indeed, the Europa League final is like a "winner-takes all" game. The losing side will get nothing and will definitely pay a heavy price. Not only will it lose the rich income from the European arena, but it will also affect the summer signing work. Even if you win the championship, as Manchester United coach Amorin said, if the whole team is used to the "indifferent" attitude towards the game, what's the point of participating in the Champions League?
Looking at the relaxation of Manchester United and Tottenham, the two opponents could only thank them secretly and accept the gift with a smile. James assisted Cucurella, scoring the only goal in the game, staged a "Jancun link" on the Green Field, successfully defeating Manchester United. After taking all three points, Chelsea's ranking rose to fourth place and already took the initiative. Since the goal difference has a considerable advantage, as long as you defeat Nottingham Forest in the last round, you can participate in the Champions League next season.
Aston Villa, who lacks Rashford, was not affected much. He defeated Tottenham two goals, but it was different from Chelsea with the same points. Villa, who fell behind a lot of goal difference, did not have the initiative. Even if he defeated Manchester United in the last round, he might not be able to participate in the Champions League. Calculate all competitions, Aston Villa has won 13 games in the last 16 games, only losing in the FA Cup and Champions League, and losing to Manchester City in the league. It can only be said that it was a bit too late to have such a strong performance at the end of the season.
It is worth mentioning that this game is Villa's last home game of the season. 32-year-old Argentine goalkeeper Martinez was very excited after the game, and tears filled his eyes. He kept waving to the fans on the sidelines, as if he was participating in a farewell match. Perhaps, next season, people will not be able to see the maverick Martin at Villa Park Stadium. After the two games ended, the Premier League officials came out to join in the fun as soon as possible and released the data on how many opportunities each team had to qualify for the Champions League. In addition to Liverpool, Arsenal's chances of participating in the Champions League are almost 100%, and Newcastle also exceeds 90%. Manchester City, which ranks sixth, has a weak opponent, and its chances of participating in the Champions League are close to 90%.
Obviously, due to the goal difference advantage, Arsenal, Newcastle and Manchester City can actually participate in the Champions League as long as they score 69 points. Later, Arsenal will face Newcastle at home. No matter what the result is, there is a team that can reach 69 points. Who can get ashore first?
As for Nottingham Forest, which ranked seventh, he has only won one of his last six league games. From the third place who was originally at ease, his ranking has dropped rapidly. Even if he won the last two games, it is difficult to qualify for the Champions League. Especially with a draw with Leicester City and Crystal Palace, losing to Everton and Brentford, losing 10 points in four games, and it only "collapsed" at the end of the season. Nottingham Forest is a pity.
At present, a total of 13 teams in the five major leagues have obtained the Champions League qualification in advance, and the Premier League with the largest number of places is only one team in Liverpool that has determined it in advance, which shows the intensity of the competition. In 8 days, including the Europa League final, all the last five Premier League places will be generated. Who can laugh to the end?
