Their Words

“We switched off. Maybe after two wins in a row we felt a bit full in our stomachs – but this cannot be the case, it’s never possible to be full – even at the highest level.” Southampton manager Paolo Di Canio.

The Radar

  1. Villa relieves relegation pressure.
  2. Champions League semifinals.
  3. CCL final.
  4. NYC expansion.
  5. MLS refs unionize.
