Sunday's main updates
23:22 CET - And that is where we leave you before the final weekend of the domestic season in England, Italy and Spain next weekend!
Bring it on...
23:00 CET - The Ligue 1 season is over! In a dramatic final day, Nice missed the chance to leapfrog Auxerre or Le Havre after being held to a 0-0 draw at home to Metz and head towards a relegation playoff against St Etienne.
That promises to be a fascinating encounter between two huge French clubs.
Lyon and Lille both lost in underwhelming final day defeats but still qualify for the Champions League because of Marseille's dominant 3-1 win against a Rennes side who went from potential UCL qualification to being demoted to the Conference League! Marseille's victory means they leapfrogged Rennes into Europa League qualification. A brutal defeat for Rennes, then.
Check out all the final day results here!
22:45 CET - It is advantage Lecce in the Serie A relegation battle after Lecce scored a dramatic late winner at Sassuolo to restore their slender lead over Cremeonese!
Jamie Vardy's first half goal was the difference for Cremonese, meanwhile, as they won 1-0 away at Udinese to keep their survival hopes alive heading into the final day.
That means with one game left in Serie A, just one point separates the sides!
22:02 CET - A fascinating final day in Ligue 1 has reached the halfway stage, and it is so far so good for Auxerre and Le Havre in the relegation battle, as both sides are ahead and staying up as it stands, with Nice currently still level at home to Metz.
21:35 CET - It is half-time in a big evening in the Serie A relegation zone, and so far both teams at threat of relegation are leading! Jamie Vardy got the party started tonight with a crucial goal for relegation-threatened Cremonese away at Udinese, and they remain 1-0 ahead at the break.
Lecce were one point ahead of Cremonese going into tonight, and they are also leading at the break away to Sassuolo.
21:00 CET - Well, an eventful evening in LaLiga has concluded with 10-man Levante winning a heated affair against 10-man Mallorca 2-0!
That means Levante are in pole position to stay up, whilst Mallorca slide into the relegation zone and are on the brink of relegation after Elche's crucial win at home to Getafe. Drama at the bottom of LaLiga!
That means that Mallorca and Girona are currently set to join Real Oviedo in the second division.
20:30 CET - West Ham are on the brink of relegation after failing to turn up against Newcastle when they needed a big performance more than ever!
Spurs know that a win against Chelsea midweek will be the final nail in the Hammers' coffin... Newcastle United were just too good today, but as for West Ham? Abysmal and Championship bound.
20:20 CET - There are also three teams battling it out for two Champions League spots with Lille (who host relegation-threatened Auxerre) currently in third, Lyon a point behind in fourth and Rennes two points behind in fifth.
Check out the team news from those three clashes below:
20:10 CET - Tonight is also the final day in Ligue 1, and (aside from the title race) it is all to play for!
The headline story comes from the relegation battle with just one point separating three sides. Nice are currently 16th and heading down but are level on points with Auxerre and just one point behind Le Havre.
Check out the lineups from each of their matches below:
20:00 CET - Team news is in from two crucial games at the bottom of Serie A. First Sassuolo host a Lecce side who sit just one point above the drop with two games to go.
And at the same time, 18th-placed Cremonese travel to Udinese knowing that defeat could see them relegated if Lecce also win.
19:50 CET - It is half-time across the grounds in LaLiga and in the battle for survival, it is going the way of Levante and Elche so far and away from Mallorca and Girona, who would both join Real Oviedo in LaLiga 2 next season if the campaign ended now.
An early strike by Vinicius Junior means Real Madrid are also ahead at the break in Seville.
19:38 CET - There has been a potentially crucial goal in LaLiga, and the relegation battle as Levante have taken the lead against fellow struggler Mallorca! That incredible sees them move from 19th and in the relegation zone, to 15th in the league.
19:20 CET - Newcastle go into the break 2-0 ahead and in pole position in the Premier League! West Ham look to be in big trouble as their survival chances will take a huge dent if they fail to turn this around in a crucial second half for the club.
19:12 CET - Celta Vigo have scored the first 'significant' goal of the day in LaLiga to (for now at least) cement their place in the Europa League next season, and it came after just four minutes away at Athletic Club.
18:50 CET - Newcastle United have got off to a flying start against West Ham! The Toon Army were unlucky not to be awarded a penalty minutes earlier, but have flown into a 2-0 lead now!
Nick Woltemdade was in desperate need of a goal after a difficult opening campaign, and he found it to put his side ahead with a collected finish from close range.
The hosts doubled their lead after William Osula finished off a brilliant sweeping move to heighten West Ham's peril.
The Hammers might be in big trouble!
18:40 CET - Team news is also in from Seville as Real Madrid take on Sevilla in their penultimate game of an underwhelming 2025/26 season for both clubs.
18:22 CET - Ready for some LaLiga team news as a fascinating relegation-battle edges closer to a conclusion?
With just one point separating 15th and 19th, it is all to play for in the most open relegation battle in Europe's top five leagues.
The headline match this evening comes from 18th-placed Mallorca away to 19th-placed Levante, with the sides locked on 39 points. Victory for either side would be a huge boost in their battle for survival.
18:02 CET - All over in the four mid-afternoon Premier League games, and it will be Leeds United fans who will be the happiest, having seen Dominic Calvert-Lewin net a stoppage-time winner to beat Brighton 1-0 - denting the Seagulls' European push.
Brentford and Everton also dropped points, the latter to Sunderland, who are back in the hunt following that 3-1 victory at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
Elsewhere, Wolves and Fulham shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw.
Catch up with all of it right here, and how it impacts the table.
17:49 CET - Brentford hit back once more against Crystal Palace, and it's that man again - Dango Ouattara.
It could prove to be a valuable point - if they can hold on - as they will sit on 52 points heading into the final, one clear of Sunderland in ninth. Remember, eighth this season is at least guaranteed Europa Conference League football next season.
Even more valuable now that Sunderland have added a third against Everton through Wilson Isidor to effectively kill the game off.
17:43 CET - Sunderland hit the front on Merseyside! After assisting the first goal, Enzo Le Fee gets on the scoresheet to put the Black Cats 2-1 up in the 81st minute. Everton, as it stands, will fall to 11th in the standings, with their opponents today jumping them into ninth and kick-starting their own European dream.
17:30 CET - A consequential goal at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, where Sunderland have equalised against Everton to hamper the home side's hopes of European football next season. Dutch striker, Brian Brobbey, has their first of the game, but can someone find a winner?
We are also just an hour away from the biggest game of the day in the Premier League.
At 18:30 CET, West Ham United travel to Newcastle knowing a win will take them out of the bottom three.
Mateus Fernandes, rumoured to be on the move in the summer, starts alongside Tomas Soucek in midfield for the Hammers, whilst Nick Woltemade, subject to his own transfer talk in the week, gets the nod behind lone striker William Osula.
17:14 CET - It's a first for Adam Wharton! In his third season with Crystal Palace, he has his maiden goal for the club, putting them 2-1 up against Brentford.
17:00 CET - All over at San Siro, where already-relegated Verona have stunned champions Inter with a late goal from Kieron Bowie to earn themselves a valiant point.
16:50 CET - We've reached the interval in each of the four Premier League games, and only Everton are ahead, thanks to that late goal from Merlin Rohl.
Elsewhere, already-relegated Wolves did take the lead against Fulham through Mateus Mane, only for Fulham to level just before half-time through an Antonee Robinson penalty. Leeds and Brighton are goalless at the break.
16:44 CET - Brentford level just before the break! Just three points off a potential Champions League spot, the Bees need to win the last their last two games, you feel, to have any shot of making it, and they have equalised against Crystal Palace to renew that hope. Burkina Faso forward Dango Ouattara has the goal, his sixth of the Premier League campaign.
Everton are another side with European ambitions and they have a 1-0 lead over Sunderland in the 44th minute thanks to a strike from Merlin Rohl.
16:22 CET - Half an hour to go in Milan, where Serie A champions are continuing their coronation against Verona. The hosts are 1-0 to the good thanks to a goal early in the second half after an own goal from Andrias Edmundsson.
16:07 CET - Four Premier League games have kicked off at 16:00 CET, with three likely to have implications for European football next season.
One of those is at Brentford, where the Bees are taking on Crystal Palace, and the Eagles have an early lead thanks to a spot-kick goal from Ismaila Sarr.
15:30 CET - Manchester United have won their final home game of the season 3-2 against Nottingham Forest, with Bruno Fernandes getting the assist he needed to go level with Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry's Premier League assist record (20).
There was a controversial moment with Matheus Cunha's goal, as it looked like Bryan Mbeumo had clearly handled the ball in the build-up. However, they won't care one bit.
Elliot Anderson was excellent for the away side, getting both assists for his team.
There are a handful of Premier League games coming up in half an hour, and you can follow them here!
14:30 CET - Serie A champions Inter Milan play their final home game of the season in half an hour, as Verona come to town. Check out the line-ups below.
14:19 CET - It is half time at Old Trafford, with Manchester United leading Nottingham Forest 1-0. Left back Luke Shaw was the goalscorer for the Red Devils, finding the back of the net for the first time since January 2023.
14:04 CET - The early games in Serie A have come to an end, and there is a lot to report regarding the race for Europe.
Napoli have secured their qualification for the Champions League with a 3-0 win at Pisa, while Juventus suffered a shock 2-0 loss at home to Fiorentina. With AC Milan, Roma and Como all winning, they have leapfrogged Juve in the table.
Milan and Roma occupy the other Champions League places, Como sit in fifth, while Juventus have dropped to sixth. Disaster for Juve, and no weekend is going to be massive in the battle for Europe.
13:47 CET - Juventus are in big, big trouble now! After seeing their equaliser ruled out following a VAR intervention, Fiorentina have now gone 2-0 up, leaving Juve's Champions League hopes in peril.
13:30 CET - Roma have doubled their lead against Lazio, with Gianluca Mancini bagging his second of the game, and they are now on course for a massive victory.
13:23 CET - Como have now gone 1-0 up against Parma, moving themselves up to fifth in the table. Juventus, who are still behind against Fiorentina, drop into sixth.
13:14 CET - Christopher Nkunku has given AC Milan the lead from the penalty spot away at Genoa, moving themselves into the Champions League spots. As a result, Juve are currently out of the top four, as they are trailing Fiorentina!
12:43 CET - Gianluca Mancini has put Roma 1-0 up against rivals Lazio in the Derby della Capitale, and as a result, they have leapfrogged Juventus into third in the table. The race for Champions League football takes another turn.
12:39 CET - Well, well, well... Fiorentina have taken the lead at Juventus, meaning that the latter could be in a precarious position in the race for Champions League football, should those around them capitalise.
12:32 CET - The team news is out for the first Premier League game of the day, as Manchester United play at Old Trafford for the last time this season, facing off against Nottingham Forest.
12:23 CET - The first goal of the day in Serie A comes from Napoli, with Scott McTominay giving his side the lead away at Pisa. As it stands, Antonio Conte's side have secured Champions League football.
11:07 CET - Lineups from across Italy's five 12:00 CET kick-offs are trickling in, with much on the line this afternoon.
All of these matches contain at least one side gunning for European football next year, with the big match coming in the capital between arch rivals, Lazio and Roma.
Gian Piero Gasperini's side currently occupy fifth spot in the standings, with the same amount of points as AC Milan, who are in fourth, but with a worse head-to-head record.
The Rossoneri are also in action from lunchtime, as they travel to Genoa. Meanwhile, Juventus entertain Fiorentina, who could still finish second in the table if they can leapfrog Napoli with two games to go. The Neopolitans face a trip to Pisa.
Follow all the action right here with Flashscore, whilst we will tell you in the Football Tracker exactly what each goal means for the standings.
10:30 CET - Before we get started with the early Serie A games, let's bring you some breaking news from Chelsea.
The Blues have appointed former Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid boss, Xabi Alonso, as their new manager from July 1st on a four-year deal.
Alonso, who spent time at Liverpool, will be the fifth permanent manager under BlueCo at Stamford Bridge, following the departure of ill-fated Liam Rosenior earlier this season.
08:20 CET - Welcome back to Flashscore's Football Tracker for what promises to be an intriguing, if slightly chaotic, day of European football.
It is the final day of the Ligue 1 season, and the biggest battle is at the bottom of the table, where Nice and Auxerre are staring the relegation playoff in the face.
A loss for either side today could see them enter that dreaded spot, but the onus is on Nice to pick up a win, given their worst goal difference. The pair start the day on 31 points, but the team from the French Riviera have the easier game - at home to already relegated Metz. Le Havre can also be dragged in. They sit on 32 points, so they will be following the action anxiously.
Before that, though, there is the small matter of the fight for Europe in Italy, whilst the Premier League returns from 13:30 CET.
Saturday May 16th
18:07 CET - That is where we leave you today with a lot more end-of-season drama to come tomorrow in Ligue 1, LaLiga, Serie A and the Premier League! Be sure to join us tomorrow morning through to late tomorrow night for all of it...
17:57 CET - MANCHESTER CITY HAVE WON THE 2025/26 FA CUP!
In a tight game with few chances, Antoine Semenyo's brilliant flicked finish from an Erling Haaland slip through made the difference and took Pep Guardiola's side to another FA Cup trophy.
That will be Bernardo Silva's final FA Cup title as a Manchester City player before the Portuguese leaves in the summer, but will it also be Pep Guardiola's?
17:43 CET - In the race for Europe, Stuttgart have snatched Champions League qualification over Hoffenheim on the final day as Hoffenheim's impressive season fell at the final hurdle and in damning style.
Hoffenheim fell to a dismal 4-0 defeat at Borussia Monchengladbach, whilst Stuttgart drew 2-2 away at Eintracht Frankfurt, also meaning that Freiburg took the final European spot instead of Frankfurt.
17:33 CET - St. Pauli and Heidenheim have been relegated to Bundesliga 2! Heidheinheim's relegation felt inevitable for weeks, but impressive end-of-season form gave them some hope of defying the odds.
It wasn't to be, though, after a disappointing final day defeat at home to Mainz and they are joined by St. Pauli, who fell to a poor defeat at home to relegation rivals Wolfsburg, who get another shot at survival in the relegation play-offs.
17:10 CET - If they weren't up against it already, St. Pauli are surely down now as Wolfsburg race into a 3-1 lead! A heartbreaking end to their Bundesliga journey (at least for now).
Although it isn't really today that their fate was decided, but the course of a long season where they haven't been able to gain consistent results.
16:57 CET - St. Pauli briefly had some hope of turning things around in their battle for survival as the hosts equalised through Abdoulie Ceesay, but it was short-lived as keeper Nikola Vasilj scored an own goal to hand the advantage back to Wolfsburg.
16:50 CET - The first half of the 2025/26 FA Cup final has come to an end, and Chelsea will be the happier of the two sides so far. Chelsea have looked comfortable and have looked the more threatening side, whilst City's dangerous attack have been kept very quiet. What it is has not been though is a classic.
An uninspiring final so far, but all is still to play for...
16:26 CET - Half-time in the Bundesliga, so let's bring you the headlines as it stands.
In the race for the final Bundesliga spot, Stuttgart lead the way, thanks to a 2-0 lead over Eintracht Frankfurt - Nikolas Nartey with the second. Hoffenheim are 2-0 down away to Borussia Monchengladbach, knowing they need a big turnaround to be a factor.
Elsewhere, at the bottom of the table, Wolfsburg are saving their skin thanks to a goal at St Pauli, which, as it stands, would relegate the Hamburg side along with Heidenheim, who are also losing.
Freiburg currently occupy the last European spot available, whilst Bayern Munich look to be ending their league-winning campaign in style with Harry Kane netting twice in the first half to see them ahead 3-1 against Koln.
Check out the latest standings right here.
16:08 CET - A huge goal at the Millerntor, but it goes against the home side, St Pauli. Wolfsburg lead through Konstantinos Koulierakis in the 37th minute. It's a goal that, as it stands, gives them a reprieve from relegation.
Can they hold on?
16:00 CET - Underway at Wembley for the FA Cup final - who will be this year's champion, Chelsea or Manchester City?
15:58 CET - In the race for Conference League football out of the Bundesliga, Freiburg are looking odds-on to grab the spot, having taken a two-goal lead over RB Leipzig, whilst Augsburg and Eintracht Frankfurt find themselves 1-0 down after 30 minutes played.
15:54 CET - Just minutes away from the start of the FA Cup final as both Chelsea and Manchester City enter the field of play at Wembley. Remember, we have full live audio commentary of the game - just click the link now to listen.
15:48 CET - Over to Frankfurt, where Stuttgart have a crucial goal through Chema Andres to put themselves in pole position for fourth, and Champions League football next season.
Couple that with Hoffenheim losing at Borussia Monchengladbach, as it stands, they have a three-point buffer. Still plenty of time for that to change, mind.
15:43 CET - A terrible start to the afternoon for Heidenheim, who find themselves 1-0 down at home to Mainz, after an opener from Phillip Tietz.
15:36 CET - Enough drama for you? Plenty more where that came from, as the final day of the Bundesliga is underway, with battles at the top and bottom of the table.
15:31 CET - CELTIC HAVE WON THE SCOTTISH PREMIERSHIP TITLE!
Heartbreak for Hearts, but as Callum Osmand walks the ball into the net, it sets off scenes of jubilation inside Celtic Park, including a pitch invasion.
It's their 14th title in 15 seasons, and despite the heroics of Hearts throughout the campaign, it's the familiar ending.
15:20 CET - CELTIC HAVE THEIR GOAL!
It's an agonising wait with VAR, but Daizen Maeda, their star striker, pounces on a cross to score and send Celtic Park into pandemonium.
Do Hearts have anything left to avoid the worst of heartbreaks?
15:11 CET - Just more than 10 minutes to go at Celtic Park and, as it stands, Hearts are going to win the title with the score at 1-1. Arne Engels, already a Celtic goalscorer today, lines up a free-kick from close range, but he puts the effort wide. The tension is palpable across the stadium, and it ratchets up further as Kelechi Iheanacho raps the post.
Are Celtic on the march?
15:00 CET - Over to Wembley as we check in ahead of the FA Cup Final between Chelsea and Manchester City.
Pep Guardiola is going for title number 20 of his reign at the Etihad, and has named his strongest XI, with James Trafford - the cup goalkeeper - in for Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Meanwhile, this is Callum McFarlane's first final as a coach, and he has also gone strong as the Blues look to secure European football next season.
14:45 CET - Two enforced changes for Hearts at the start of the second half, with Jordi Altena and Beni Baningime both off with injuries to be replaced by Frankie Kent and Blair Spittal.
14:40 CET - We are back underway at Celtic Park, and there is still a good race for the final Champions League spot in the Bundesliga.
Stuttgart, Hoffenheim and Bayer Leverkusen all have a shout of making it. Make sure to click on the links above to view lineups and check the game previews.
14:22 CET - Just over an hour now until the final day of the Bundesliga gets going, and we have games that matter for those at the top and bottom of the table.
There is perhaps none bigger today than the clash between St Pauli and Wolfsburg. The loser of this one will be relegated from the Bundesliga, whilst a draw could see them both down.
Here is how both teams will lineup from 15:30 CET.
The team that could take advantage if it does finish in a draw is Heidenheim. They have put together a good run of form in recent weeks to give them a sniff of survival, but to avoid automatic relegation, they must win and hope results go their way.
They take on Mainz at home and here are the lineups.
14:19 CET - Lifeline for Celtic! A handball gives the referee no choice but to give a penalty, and Belgian midfielder Arne Engels converts the spot-kick, the Bhoys' ninth of the year, to make it 1-1. It's half-time, we are where we began at Celtic Park, but the last five minutes have been dramatic. Expect more in the second 45.
14:14 CET - Hearts have the breakthrough! Set-pieces have been a hallmark of their title run this season, and the Jam Tarts use it again to strike first at Celtic. A ball to the back post floats over the keeper, leaving the onrushing Lawrence Shankland to head home from a yard out.
It's the captain's 20th goal of the season, and it could be the biggest of his career.
14:03 CET - First real shot on target comes the way of Celtic, as Sebastian Tounetki, but his effort from the edge of the box is easily retrieved by the Hearts keeper. Still 0-0 as we edge towards half-time. As it stands, Hearts are champions.
14:00 CET - Half an hour into the decider, and we are yet to have a clear sight of goal despite a febrile atmosphere inside Celtic Park. The nerves are starting to show with Hearts proving their usual stubborn selves.
13:40 CET - As you would have predicted, it's a raucous atmosphere inside Celtic Park, with the home side taking the initiative in the early going against Hearts. But, it's goalless so far, with the visiting defence holding firm.
13:30 CET - Here we go, then. Who will win the Scottish Premiership - Celtic or Hearts? The stakes are so very high, and we are just 90 minutes away from knowing who it will be.
12:25 CET - Team news is in from Celtic Park. League leaders Hearts make three changes from their midweek win over Falkirk, with Claudio Braga, Blair Spittal and Frankie Kent all dropping to the bench as Stephen Kingsley, Jordi Altena and Pierre Kabore come in.
The biggest surprise of the omitted trio is certainly Braga. The Scottish Premiership Player of the Year has not missed a start since December, suggesting Hearts may play more defensively this afternoon.
For Celtic, they are unchanged from Wednesday night.
12:00 CET - Before the final day in the Bundesliga, there is the small matter of a title decider in Scotland.
Hearts have had a fairytale run, akin to Leicester City's Premier League win, this season, and go into the final day knowing they must avoid defeat to be crowned Scottish Premiership champions.
That hurdle, though, could not be tougher as they take on Celtic, at Celtic Park, their only rival for the title.
Controversy has plagued the run-up to this massive clash, after Celtic were given a penalty for a handball to win their midweek game against Motherwell 3-2 and take it to the final day.
The stakes could not be higher for the Edinburgh side. Their last league victory came back in 1960, and if they do the business today, they will be the first side in 41 years to break up the duopoly of the big Glasgow sides.
Before we get team news soon, Flashscore's Pavel Kriklan spoke to former Hearts player, Roman Bednar, about their incredible season, and what it will mean if the Jam Tarts can go all the way today.
11:30 CET - It's that time of year again - after eight months of action, we have reached the climax of the Bundesliga.
Despite Bayern wrapping up the title weeks ago, there is still plenty to play for on the final day of the season.
Here's what to look out for from 15:30 CET, across the nine games.
The biggest storylines are at the bottom of the table. Two of Heidenheim, St Pauli or Wolfsburg will be relegated today, with the latter two playing a 'winner takes all' clash.
If either St Pauli or Wolfsburg win, they will secure the relegation playoff spot, whilst the other will be doomed to the 2. Bundesliga.
All three teams go into the final day on 26 points, meaning goal difference is likely to play a part. St Pauli, who are at the bottom of the table, have -29, as do Heidenheim, whilst Wolfsburg are three better.
Crucially, if St Pauli and Wolfsburg draw at the Millerntor today, then a win for Heidenheim at home to Mainz will see them avoid automatic relegation.
Elsewhere in the Bundesliga, Hoffenheim, Stuttgart, and Bayer Leverkusen are battling it out for the final Champions League spot.
Stuttgart, currently occupying fourth in the league, take on Eintracht Frankfurt, who can also slip into Conference League qualification with a win, whilst Hoffenheim travel to Borussia Monchengladbach, who have very little to play for, other than pride, today.
Leverkusen are three points behind both sides, so will need luck on their side to sneak into fourth.
Alongside Frankfurt in the battle for Conference League football next year is Augsburg and Freiburg. The latter currently holds a one-point advantage over the two chasers, but they have a tricky test in the shape of RB Leipzig.
It's all set to be a classic day in the Bundesliga!
