We take a look back at the weekend’s football, starting with Wolves’ 2-0 win at the home of the champions, Manchester City, which allowed Liverpool to go eight points clear at the top with a late win over Leicester.

Spurs and Manchester United also lost games they weren’t meant to, going down at Brighton and Newcastle respectively.

We cover the rest of the Premier League, round up the Football League, talk Phil Neville’s strife and (whisper it) the hint of a title race in Scotland.

We speak to Sid Lowe in Spain about Barcelona’s thumping, but flattering, 4-0 win over Sevilla, and Nicky Bandini WhatsApps her Serie A round-up.

Back on Thursday!
