On May 12, Beijing time, the Bundesliga, La Liga, and the Premier League staged a number of key battles, Dortmund defeated Mainz 0-3 in the 33rd round of the Bundesliga, Real Madrid defeated Gnanada 4-0 in the 35th round of La Liga, Chelsea reversed Nottingham Forest 3-2 in the 37th round of the Premier League, and Manchester City made a tragic victory over Fulham to overtake Arsenal and rose to the top, staging a crazy night.
Granada - Real Madrid
Real Madrid, who secured the La Liga title ahead of schedule, enjoyed the honour of being welcomed by the Granada squad before the game, and Real Madrid, who responded with a rotating lineup, were slow to heat up and lackluster in the early stages of the half. Granada, who had already been confirmed for relegation, were in danger after another, with Courtois heading past Mirto and Bowyer's long-range shot from the top of the arc. Before half-time, Real Madrid regained their attacking sense, and in the 37th minute, Modric made a reverse triangle to make a reversal of the bottom line, and the ball leaked to disrupt the defense, and Garcia followed up in the middle to break the deadlock. Seven minutes later, Real Madrid quickly counterattacked and tore the gap on the left side, and Gueller stopped the ball outside the small penalty area and scored a powerful shot, and Real Madrid led by 2 goals at halftime. Real Madrid, who entered the state, returned to the second half to attack and see results, Dias drove the ball into the middle and drove straight into the penalty area, deducted the defense and pushed it into the net to open up the difference. In the 57th minute, Modric sent an assist in front of the small penalty area, and Dias swept the far corner of the net from the penalty spot to score twice. In the end, Real Madrid won 4-0 to extend their lead to 15 points.
Mainz-Dortmund
Third-from-bottom Mainz needed three points to get out of the relegation play-offs, and they played with a winning momentum against the rotating Dortmund, with Amiri missing the world wave with a direct free-kick in the seventh minute and Barrelo opening the scoring five minutes later with a mistake from Dortmund in the back of the six-yard box. Dort's backline was clearly out of shape, and there was a huge mistake in the 19th minute, goalkeeper Meier sent a direct own goal from inside the box, and Lee Jae-sung easily swept the empty goal to extend the score. Four minutes later, Dort's defense was broken down again, and Lee Jae-sung received an inverted triangle return pass from the bottom line to complete the double ring. Dort was sleepwalking on the defensive end, giving up three straight points in 11 minutes. There were few chances for the two teams to threaten in the rematch, Dortmund still missed the goal, and Moukoko took advantage of a team-mate's counter-attack opportunity to score a goal that was ruled offside. In the end, Mainz beat Dortmund 3-0 and got out of the relegation zone by two points.
Nottingham Forest - Chelsea
Nottingham, who needed just one point to secure relegation, were the first to attack, and just two minutes into the opening period, Chris Wood almost conceded a lightning goal for Chelsea. Chelsea responded immediately with Palmer sending a scalpel down the left and Mykhailo Mudryk cutting into the box to head the ball into the far corner. Nottingham quickly fought back, and in the 15th minute, Whitting's 45-degree diagonal cross into the middle was equalised by Boehly's header at the back post. The transition between attack and defence on the pitch accelerated, and there was an exchange of attacks and defences on both sides, Chris Wood caught the Blues goalkeeper to clear the ball and headed high at the top of the net, and Jacquesson was saved with a low shot from Palmer's through ball. Nottingham struck a series of dangerous second-half shots, with Eena shooting wide from distance, Yates cutting low at the post and Wood heading in the woods from close range. Chelsea also had great chances, with Silva's header also hitting the post and the two teams hitting the iron three times to miss a good chance in a row. In the 78th minute, Odor scored a goal to beat Chelsea by one goal. In the 80th minute, Raheem Sterling dribbled the ball inside the penalty area and pushed the goal to equalize quickly. Two minutes later, James crossed from the right and Jacquesson nodded home the winner. In the end, Chelsea came back from behind to beat Nottingham Forest 3-2.
Fulham - Manchester City
Manchester City, who won six consecutive rounds, played an unstoppable momentum, Gvardiol cut inside with the ball and De Bruyne played a beautiful one-two combination and then pushed through the net to take the lead, Manchester City grabbed the start and played more and more freely, Haaland volleyed high in the middle, the long shot from the top of the arc of the B seat was saved, Foden's cut inside on the left was saved, Akanji corner kick opportunity in front of the goal with a close-range header was deflected, and Manchester City squandered a good chance to score. Yibian played with Manchester City in a high-efficiency game, and Foden extended the advantage with a low shot into the near corner after receiving an assist from the B bench. Midway through the half, Gvardiol received a 45-degree diagonal cross and then scrambled to complete the double. In the fourth minute of stoppage time, Alvarez was tackled in the box to create a red dot set and scored the penalty himself. In the end, Manchester City won 4-0 away, beating Arsenal by 2 points to top the standings.
