Atlético Madrid earned back-to-back LaLiga wins with a 3-0 victory over Mallorca. A comfortable display from Diego Simeone's side saw Alexander Sorloth open the scoring in the first half before a comical own goal from David López and Thiago Almada's fierce strike wrapped up the win. Victory means Atlético are now unbeaten in their last five league outings, while Mallorca remain just above the relegation zone.

There were some forced changes to Arsenal's starting XI, with Olivia Smith's suspension and Frida Maanum's illness adding to injuries to several key players, including the England duo Leah Williamson and Chloe Kelly. Despite their depleted number, Renee Slegers's side were dominant in possession, at times weaving together some lovely patterns of play. However, the end product was notably absent once again, the Gunners searching for the eye-of-a-needle pass through Chelsea's stoic and well-balanced back three of Lucy Bronze, Naomi Girma and Millie Bright.

Barça's first half performance was, in a word, dreadful. Slavia came out the more aggressive and desperate team and scored a somewhat ugly set piece goal in the 10th minute as Kusej got ahead of Frenkie de Jong at the far post after a corner and somehow found a way to put the ball over the line, and the home team was off to a dream start.

Anis Ben Slimane gave Norwich a ninth-minute lead before the in-form Sam Smith restored parity before the break. Jovon Makama struck after 58 minutes to take his Championship goals tally into double figures and end Wrexham's 10-game unbeaten home league run that stretched back to Sept. 13. Norwich remain in the relegation zone despite an upturn in results since Philippe Clement succeeded the sacked Liam Manning in November, but are within a point of Blackburn and Portsmouth in 22nd.

Dembele opened the scoring in the 13th minute, firing in off the post from the edge of the area to settle Luis Enrique's men after a nervy start. He then sent the Parc des Princes crowd into raptures just under 20 minutes into the second half, demonstrating artistry and precision to produce a high lobbed finish over Berke Ozer, who could only watch in awe as Lille were given a mountain to climb.

It's half-time [in the tie]. I was very happy with the engagement, the commitment of the players. They gave everything. It was every open game. Disappointed to concede from a corner. Disappointed with the third goal as well, because we were right back in the game, and we were on top at that moment. We switched off from a restart from a central free-kick, but I can't fault the players. We've had illness in the squad, we've picked up a few knocks this week, but what the squad has shown is that they are willing to run and fight for each other.

Barnsley gave their hosts a scare after just 28 seconds when Davis Keillor-Dunn thumped a header against the right post. But Liverpool took the lead nine minutes in after Szoboszlai was left unmarked and lifted a spectacular long-range strike into the back of the net. Jonathan Bland forced Giorgi Mamardashvili into a smart stop shortly before Jeremie Frimpong cut inside from the right to curl a brilliant strike into the roof of the net 36 minutes in.

Lautaro Martinez grabbed a goal and an assist as Inter returned to the top of the Serie A table with a comfortable 3-1 victory over Bologna at San Siro. Just 16 days after losing to Bologna on penalties in the Supercoppa Italiana semi-finals, the Nerazzurri exacted revenge in the league on Sunday to move a point ahead of rivals AC Milan. Bologna goalkeeper Federico Ravaglia was forced into making two early stops: first, denying Lautaro Martinez's volley, before diving low to his left to repel Marcus Thuram's shot.

Goals from Sam Smith and Oliver Rathbone before the break were enough to secure all three points on the road for Phil Parkinson's side, seeing them extend their winning run in the competition to three games. Wrexham were ahead after just 11 minutes against a struggling Blackburn side, with Matty James' long ball over the top of the Rovers defence taken down and slotted in at the near post by Smith.
