• Torino 3-1 Milan: Lacklustre Rossoneri stunned by Il Toro

  Milan suffered a disappointing 3-1 defeat at mid-table Torino in Serie A on Saturday after being punished for a slow first-half performance.

  Torino dominated the first 45 minutes, scoring with two headers; Duvan Zapata picked out the bottom corner after 26 minutes before Ivan Ilic doubled their advantage by throwing himself onto Raoul Bellanova's cross before the break.

  Former Milan player Ricardo Rodriguez needed only 18 seconds in the second half to unleash a fierce left-foot shot from distance into the top corner of the net for Torino's third.

  Ismael Bennacer converted a penalty for Milan in the 55th minute after a foul on Christian Pulisic, but the visitors, seemingly focused on their final match against relegated Salernitana, never threatened to get back into the game.

  Torino are ninth in the standings on 53 points, while Milan will finish second in the standings behind local rivals Inter.

  Data Debrief: Home comforts

  Torino have lost just two of their home games in Serie A this season, finishing on a high against second-place Milan in what is possibly Ivan Juric's final game in charge. 

  Zapata proved an influential figure for Torino once more, and has scored the joint-most headed goals in the top five European league this season: eight (level with Harry Kane).

• Hayes: This WSL title is the sweetest for Chelsea

  Emma Hayes says this Women’s Super League title is the "toughest but sweetest" after being pushed all the way by Manchester City.

  Hayes announced earlier this season that this would be her last in charge of the Blues and had written off their chances of lifting the trophy after a 4-3 defeat to Liverpool at the start of May.

  However, an 8-0 victory over Bristol City followed by a 1-0 win from their game in hand over Tottenham put their fate back in their own hands going into the final day.

  In the end, Chelsea won the WSL on goal difference, with another heavy 6-0 win adding to their advantage over City to help them to a fifth consecutive title.

  Hayes took time after the match to reflect not only on the game but also on her 12-year stay at Chelsea.

  "What a wonderful performance from the team today," she told Sky Sports. "I picked a team of leaders from the beginning, and I felt it was absolutely essential we had the emotional maturity and regulation for a stadium as fitting as this.

  "We've lost a lot of players today so to have some of them back today, it was just an amazing performance.

  "I can't say it's my most enjoyable [title] but it's definitely been the toughest, without doubt, and for that reason, probably the sweetest. I'm just so relieved it's over.

  "I just haven't got any more to give, I know that. The hardest thing to do is five in a row, because people take their eye off the ball. My legacy is winning while building a team for the future.

  "Everyone said girls can't play, nor can they fill stadiums, nor can they get paid, nor can they create history.

  "Not only are we not going away, but we are going to fill them every week. Women's football now is a serious business and that for me, is what it's about."

  Captain Millie Bright missed six months of the season due to a knee injury, but returned in April to help Chelsea during an important run-in.

  "It was pretty special but when half the country writes you off... we've got the monster mentality, we've shown it season after season," she said after the game.

  "We were given a second chance. They don't often, but you have to take them, and we did. We beat Bristol City, beat Tottenham, and we've come here and put on a five-star performance to take this title.

  "It's extra special to get it for Emma [Hayes] and the players who are leaving us.

  "That's our standards, we shouldn't be underestimated to make this sort of comeback because we're defending champions.

  "It's been an emotional season for Emma especially. We picked her up [after the loss at Liverpool] like she does for us every day."

• Man City star Foden scoops Premier League Player of the Year award

  Phil Foden has been named the Premier League's Player of the Year, having been sensational for Manchester City this season.

  Foden has scored 17 goals and provided a further eight assists in the top flight in 2023-24.

  The 23-year-old has been pivotal in City's quest to win an unprecedented fourth Premier League title.

  Pep Guaridola's team head into their final game of the season, in which they face West Ham at home, needing a win to guarantee the crown.

  Only six players have bettered Foden's goal tally, with the attacker enjoying his most profitable scoring season for City.

   

  Foden's 17 goals have come from an expected goals figure of 10, suggesting his finishing has been way above what would have been anticipated based on the quality of chances he has had.

  The England international, meanwhile, has had 99 shots, and leads City's squad for chances created (68).

  "To win this award is an achievement that I am extremely proud of," Foden told Man City's official website.

  "Overall, I've been very happy with the way I have played this season and really pleased that I have been able to contribute with the goals and assists throughout the season.

  "I'd like to thank all of the City staff, coaches and especially my teammates because without them this wouldn’t be possible.

  "And I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who voted for me as the award means a lot."

  It is the fifth season in a row that a City player has won the award, with Kevin De Bruyne (2019-20, 2021-22), Ruben Dias (2020-21) and Erling Haaland (2022-23) having scooped it previously.
