Liverpool’s Champions League hopes diminish after draw with Aston Villa.

After drawing this Saturday at Anfield against Aston Villa (1-1), Liverpool saw their chances of qualifying for the next Champions League almost completely evaporate, while Tottenham could be left out of all European competition.

In Liverpool there was a bittersweet goodbye for Roberto Firmino on the 37th date of the Premier. The Brazilian, a member of the magical triplet with Sadio Mané and Mohamed Salah, did not have the desired farewell to what was his stadium in recent years despite the goal scored for his team.

After coming into play in the 72nd minute for Luis Díaz, ‘Bobby’ dived to the ground at the near post to cut a cross with Salah’s outside one minute from the end of regulation time to establish the final 1-1.

But with 66 points and with one game to play, Liverpool (5th) will need a miracle to surpass Manchester United (4th) or Newcastle (3rd), who have three more units and one game less.

Unai Emery’s ‘Villains’ (7th), for their part, add a point that brings them closer to the Europa Conference League. Jacob Ramsey he scored in the 22nd minute the goal that put the Birmingham team ahead against some ‘Reds’ who had won seven consecutive victories.

And a superb action from the Brazilian casemiro allowed the Manchester United win 1-0 at Bournemouth and get a little closer to the Champions League.

Con 69 pointsthe ‘Red Devils’ only need one more to seal their ticket, and they have two games left at home, against Chelsea and Fulham, two teams that do not play anything.

After losing his fifth game in the last seven days, 3-1 against Brentford, the Tottenham (8th) not only has he been left out of the fight to get into the next Champions League, but with one day to go before the end of the championship, he is not even sure of his participation in European competitions.

Only two victories in the last ten days of the Premier League and 9 out of 30 possible points… The end of the season is getting very long for the ‘Spurs’, who lost this Saturday at home against a direct rival in the fight for Europe.

Harry Kane opened the scoring shortly after the start of the game with his 28th goal in this Premier League, but Brentford ended up coming from behind in the second half with goals from Bryan Mbeumo (50 and 62 minutes) and Yoane Warned (88′).
