• 'I don't stop' – Simeone focused after bringing up 400 Atletico wins with Celta triumph

  Diego Simeone is refusing to relent in his pursuit with Atletico Madrid after bringing up 400 wins during his managerial tenure at the club.

  Atletico needed a late stunner from Rodrigo De Paul to edge past Celta Vigo on Sunday, keeping them on course for Champions League qualification.

  Simeone's side would secure a top-four spot in LaLiga if they beat Getafe on Wednesday.

  That remains Simeone's firm focus, rather than celebrating personal achievements.

  The Atletico boss told reporters: "I don't stop. I know what I want, I know what I'm looking for, I know where the path is.

  "I will continue pushing until the last day I am here.

  "We will continue game by game until the end, and then we will analyse well what needs to be assessed."

  Though not accepting any personal praise, Simeone lauded the support of Atletico's fans after another positive season in the Spanish capital.

  "The unconditional support we have with our people," he added. "What is happening this season, our strength at home that is repeated and repeated, and repeated…

  "It is not only because of what we can give. There is a passion that is extraordinary, unbeatable in that sense.

  "It makes us play with a plus. It exists, it is seen, I hope we can continue repeating it for a long time"

• Arteta hails 'phenomenal' Arsenal drive to take Man City all the way

  Mikel Arteta hailed the "phenomenal" drive shown by his Arsenal side to push Manchester City all the way in the Premier League title race.

  The Gunners moved one point clear of City at the Premier League summit on Sunday with a 1-0 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

  City have a chance to restore their advantage when they travel to Arsenal's fierce rivals Tottenham on Tuesday, before then hosting West Ham.

  Regardless of what happens in midweek, Arsenal will go into their final game of the campaign at home to Everton with the title battle still alive.

  Speaking to BBC Sport after his side's latest win, Arteta said: "It is a phenomenal thing they are doing."

  However, Arteta was not entirely pleased with the manner of his side's slender victory, even if they were good value for the win overall.

  "We weren't composed, clean enough, consistent enough and were unable to do the simple things right," he said. "That doesn't give you control. 

  "Some of the players have not been in this position; they don't know what is at stake and how you feel emotionally to have to win and win and win from December or January."

  Arsenal's win was just their second in 17 Premier League trips to Old Trafford, most recently coming out on top in November 2020.

  Lenadro Trossard scored what proved to be the winner with 20 minutes played, tapping in from close range after being set up by Kai Havertz.

  "We needed a result today in a really difficult place," Arteta added. "Our history was not in favour of a result today.

  "There was so much at stake and we're happy with the result. We started the game really well and were dominant. 

  "We scored the goal and I think the goal led to slightly bad things because we started to play too safe, too sideways, too backwards with not enough structure.

  "We started to give the ball away in good areas and that is a danger against them. But we defended well and didn't concede too much."

  Arsenal now find themselves cheering on Tottenham against City, knowing that anything other than a win for Pep Guardiola's men will leave their title fate in their own hands.

  Asked if he will be watching that game, Arteta said: "We will be sat watching and it’s true we need the result in order to achieve [the title]. In football there are always possibilities."

• Tuchel skips goodbye from fans after final Bayern home game

  Departing Bayern Munich coach Thomas Tuchel opted on Sunday to quietly slip into the changing rooms instead of joining his players to celebrate after the Bavarians beat Wolfsburg 2-0.

  Tuchel will be leaving at the end of the season – a year earlier than his contract ends – following a disappointing campaign with no silverware.

  The win came four days after Bayern's Champions League semi-final exit to Real Madrid confirmed their first season without a trophy in over a decade.

  "These are the moments for the players," he said when asked why he did not join his squad who went in front of the Bayern ultras after their final home game of the season.

  "I don't want to be in the spotlight there. That's for the team. I know that the cameras are there.

  "I prefer to go in [to the changing rooms]. It is about the team. The fans are there for the team. They need to be celebrated."

  There has been little to celebrate for Tuchel in his 14 months in charge, with Bayern having managed to win only the Bundesliga title last season after Borussia Dortmund slipped up on the final matchday.

  He said he did not yet know what he would take away from his time at Bayern, who missed out on Bundesliga glory to Bayer Leverkusen this term.

  "Last home game and what remains I don't really know," he said. "It will take some time to see what is left.

  "It is a privilege to coach at this level. I came to win as many titles as possible. We did not succeed in that."
