The just-concluded weekend taught us a few things in the world of football, from Harry Kane finally winning a trophy to Liverpool's title hangover and a few more interesting developments in the game worth talking about.

Palmer calls detractors "idiots".

Chelsea's Cole Palmer scored for the first time in 19 games on Sunday, and he has taken to the media to hit back at people who called him a one-season wonder.

The playmaker has endured a torrid time in recent games, struggling to impact games, but his overall contribution to Chelsea's big win over Liverpool on Sunday earned him the man of the match award, and he didn't take kindly to his detractors after the game.

Harry Kane rises above the trophy curse.

England striker Harry Kane has won his first major trophy as a footballer after Bayer Leverkusen settled for a 2-2 draw at Freiburg on Sunday.

Bayern Munich drew 3-3 at Leipzig on Saturday, needing only one point to confirm their title; however, Xabi Alonso's side failed to win, which means Bayern has now been confirmed as champions.

Will El Clásico determine who wins La Liga?

Real Madrid delivered two kinds of performances on Sunday, blowing Celta Vigo away in the opening hour and then going back to being poor in the final half hour.

Barcelona owns the advantage as things stand; however, they know that dropping points in the El Clásico goes beyond the league table. The bragging rights are bigger than you think; everyone knows the implications.

Napoli takes giant strides towards league title.

We knew it; you don't give Antonio Conte one whole week to prepare and expect anything less from him. Napoli looks primed for the Scudetto in Italy; can anyone stop them now?

The former Juventus and Chelsea manager leads the log by three points, which is enough to land the title if they equal Inter Milan's results until the end of the season. Is there anyone who can stop Napoli?

Who takes the UCL qualification tickets in England?

Somehow, Arsenal has joined the top five conversations, but the Gunners should be fine; however, despite beating Liverpool on Sunday, Chelsea currently sits in fifth spot, three points above Forest and Aston Villa, but the former has a game in hand.

Newcastle looks like they would be fine, and Manchester City is now on that monstrous end-of-season form. Who takes the final ticket?
