AC Milan 5-1 Bologna:Rossoneri move up to 6th place after home win

-
Alexis Saelemaekers and Ismael Bennacer both scored their first goals for the Rossoneri as they beat Bologna to move up to 6th place in the table. 

Saelemaekers put them in front and Hakan Calhanoglu took advantage of goalkeeper Lukasz Skorupski to double their lead as Milan played with a lot of swagger in them.

Takehiro Tomiyasu pulled one back late in the first half, but two goals from Ismael Bennacer and Ante Rebic in the space of eight minutes all but secured the win for Pioli's side, as David Calabria made it 5-1 in the closing stages to ensure an emphatic win for Milan.

Milan started the match on the front foot and they were in front after 10 minutes as Ante Rebic showed great trickery before backheeling for Theo Hernandez,whose cross was shot into the far corner by Saelemaekers after a good dummy by Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Rebic came close before Skorupski gifted Milan the second goal,the keeper's attempted clearance allowed Calhanoglu to double up for Milan just 24 minutes in.

Milan were rampant and Frank Kessie hit the post before Bologna pulled one back, courtesy of a good finish by Tomiyasu,who cut inside and fired into the top corner from 20 yards out.

Milan continued to dominate after the break and Bennacer scored after being set up by Calhanoglu. While Rebic turned sharply before finishing with his left foot after he was set up by Ibrahimovic in the 57th minute.

Kessie had a shot cleared off the line and Federico Santander was unable to convert an indirect free kick inside Milan's box.

Calabria put the icing on the cake as he rounded off a brilliant move that also involved Rafael Leao.

Chelsea have confirmed that they will play in Champions League next season as goals from Mason Mount and Olivier Giroud sealed a 2-0 win on the final day of the Premier League season. Although the Blues had a sluggish start to the game, but two goals in first half stoppage time. First, through a brilliant Mason Mount free kick, before Giroud doubled the lead a short while later. Although the first half of the match was highly devoid of action until a wonderful Mason Mount free kick goal. While, Christian Pulisic and Mason Mount combined to set up Giroud, before he rounded Rui Patricio and held off Conor Coady before scoring into an empty net. Diogo Jota brought out a save from Willy Caballero just before the hour. But the Blues were hardly troubled as they held on to 4th position in the league in Lampard's first season in charge.

Danny Ings scored his 21st Premier League goal of the season as Southampton defeated Bournemouth 2-0 at the Vitality Stadium.  Ings scored with a good finish in tge 41st minute as he put glitters to sweeping Saints counter attack.  He had a chance to double his side's lead, but he sent a tame shot that was saved by Aaron Ramsdale, after Harry Wilson handled in the box. Bournemouth thought they had equalised through Sam Surridge, only for VAR to judge that Callum Wilson was in an offside position whilst also interfering with play, before Substitute Che Adams hit the final nail in the coffin to almost certainly dash Bournemouth's hopes of staying up. Eddie Howe's men are three points from safety with a trip to Everton still to come. Survival on goal difference is the best they can hope for, as 17th placed Watford will condemn the Cherries to the 2nd division for next season, if and only if they can claim a point from one of their last two games with matches agains...
