AS Roma with head already at Feyenoord, Justin Kluivert goal not enough for Nice Football
The Nigerian David Chidozie Okereke gave the visitors the lead in the first minute with a header and only fifteen minutes before the end, AS Roma equalized via Eldor Sjomurodov, who came in after an hour. At halftime, Rick Karsdorp also joined the team for the Romans.
AS Roma is sixth and runs the risk of being overtaken by Fiorentina and Atalanta, who still have a duel due. For Roma, which may be in addition to qualifying for European football via the competition, only the away game against Torino is on the program.
On May 25, AS Roma and Feyenoord will face each other in the final battle in Tirana. Feyenoord will play for the last time at home against FC Twente on Sunday in the run-up to the final. The winner of that match will receive a ticket for the Europa League.
Venezia, where Ridgeciano Haps is under contract, cannot finish higher than 18th with one match to go.
Kluivert scores for Nice
Despite a goal from Justin Kluivert against Lille, OGC Nice has to fear for missing out on European football next season. The French sub-topper lost the home game 3-1 and saw the competitors win on the penultimate match day of the Ligue 1. Kluivert’s opening goal came in the 31st minute. Pablo Rosario was also in the base at Nice.
Goals from Jonathan David and Timothy Wea after the break ultimately ensured Nice’s defeat to Lille, where defender Sven Botman was missing. Nice is sixth with 63 points. Number 5 RC Strasbourg has the same number of points and Stade Rennes is in fourth place with two points more. That place means qualification for the Europa League at the end of the season, of which one game remains. The club that finishes fifth qualifies for the Conference League.
Messi, Bosz and Monaco
Lionel Messi was the big man at champions Paris Saint-Germain. The Argentinian scored the first two goals against HSC Montpellier. Angel di Maria and Kylian Mbappé (penalty kick) then determined the final score. Georgino Wijnaldum, who was not included in the Orange squad, was in the starting line-up at PSG, he was replaced by Xavi Simons twenty minutes before the end.
Peter Bosz may have no chance for European football with his Olympique Lyon, but the coach did beat FC Nantes on Saturday. At home it became 3-2 for Lyon. As a result, it is certain of eighth place. With favorable results on the final day, number seven RC Lens can still be traced.
Goalkeeper Marco Bizot took a 2-0 lead against AS Monaco with Stade Brest, but the Dutchman eventually had to allow three goals from Wissam Ben Yedder and one from Kevin Volland: 4-2. Monaco, where Myron Boadu came in in the final phase, is now second. That place ultimately means direct qualification for the Champions League. Brest is eleventh.

The best of De Telegraaf
European finals are very exciting, with 100,000 Scots and 50,000 Germans in Seville. Those with a ticket for the Europa League final turned it into a popular festival. Without this entourage, a blood-curdling penalty series remained after a dragon of a match between Eintracht Frankfurt and Rangers FC. Apart from all the tension, it is not surprising with the number eleven of the Bundesliga against the number two of the Scottish Premier League.

Preview Giro stage 13: Can Van der Poel’s team challenge the sprinters? † NOW
In the thirteenth stage of the Giro d’Italia, the sprinters seem to be on the move again. The ride from San Remo has one climb, which is far from the finish in Cuneo. Nevertheless, Mathieu van der Poel’s team has opportunities to avoid a typical sprinter’s ride.
After 54 kilometers the riders already reach the top of the Colle di Nava, the only climb of the day. The peloton then moves on to a plateau as far as Cuneo. The last 100 kilometers are almost flat.
Although the second part seems ideal for fast men like Arnaud Démare and Fernando Gaviria, it is conceivable that teams will avoid a bunch sprint. On the climb of the Colle di Nava (10.1 kilometers at 6.7 percent) they can encourage the sprinters to release.
One of the teams that benefits from this is Alpecin-Fenix. Since leader Van der Poel usually digests climbs better than other fast men, it is quite possible that the Belgian team accelerates here.
They did that earlier in the fifth stage, when Mark Cavendish and Caleb Ewan, among others, had to pass on the only climb of the day. Démare also had to release briefly in that stage, but still won the stage after coming back with the help of his teammates.

Eyes on bunch sprint on Démare
It remains to be seen whether Alpecin-Fenix actually has a plan and whether other teams are willing to cooperate. If that is not the case, there is a chance that it will still be a sprint with a large peloton. In that case, Démare is the big favorite.
The Frenchman has already won two stages in this Giro and is wearing the points jersey. Now that Ewan has given up, he has also lost an important competitor. In addition, Cavendish does not seem to be in top shape uphill, which means that he probably cannot participate for the stage victory in Cuneo.
Official start: 13.35 hrs
Expected finish time: 5.15 pm
Favorites for day success:
⭐⭐⭐ Arnaud Demare
⭐⭐ Mathieu van der Poel, Fernando Gaviria
⭐ Alberto Dainese, Thomas De Gendt, Mauro Schmid
