The biggest headline was Crystal Palace’s 2-0 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage. Jean‑Philippe Mateta and Ismaila Sarr did most of the heavy lifting, turning a smart counterattack into two clean goals. The match showed how Roy Hodgson’s side has tightened up defensively compared to their earlier loss against the same opponents.
We also previewed the Brighton vs Chelsea clash that took place mid‑month.

The game turned into a tactical chess match, keeping fans on edge until the final whistle.
On the women’s side, the WSL showdown at Villa Park had Aston Villa Women hosting Chelsea Women. A tight 1‑0 finish came thanks to an own goal from Sarah Mayling, leaving Chelsea perched at the top of the table. We highlighted key players like Sabrina D’Angelo for Villa and gave you streaming tips if you missed the live action.
Over in Spain, Real Betis saw Antony net his first league goal after almost a year on loan from Manchester United. The Brazilian’s strike lifted spirits even though Betis fell 3‑2 to Celta Vigo. We talked about how his loan deal works and why coach Manuel Pellegrini is keen on giving him minutes.
Ajax made headlines by signing Norwegian winger Oliver Edvardsen from Go Ahead Eagles. The 24‑year‑old’s pace and versatility earned him a contract through June, strengthening Ajax’s attack for the rest of the Eredivisie season. We broke down his stats and why fans should keep an eye on him.

Critics warned about his lack of agency experience, while supporters pointed to his close ties with former President Trump. We laid out the main arguments from both sides and what this could mean for future investigations.
In music news, we paid tribute to Marianne Faithfull after her passing at 78.
