Bayer Leverkusen were held 1-1 at St Pauli on Sunday, leaving Bayern Munich needing just five points from their remaining four games to win the Bundesliga title. Leverkusen took the lead when Alex Grimaldo floated in a free kick and Patrik Schick jumped high to score after 32 minutes. The visitors shut up shop in the second half and Pauli laid siege to Leverkusen's goal. Morgan Guilavogui's 74th-minute strike seemed to have levelled things up, but it was chalked off for handball.
Fede Valverde's superb 93rd minute strike kept Real Madrid on Barcelona's tail in the Spanish title race, earning the champions a 1-0 win over Athletic Bilbao on Sunday. Madrid stayed four points behind Barca after Valverde smashed into the top corner with a sliced, swerving effort. After Champions League elimination by Arsenal it looked like Madrid were set for another devastating result until the Uruguay international's stoppage-time intervention. "Fede has such a good shot... in training yesterday he shot a ball that looked like it was going out and then it picked up a curl like that and you go 'how do you shoot like that?'" said Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.
McLaren's Oscar Piastri won the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix on Sunday from Red Bull polesitter Max Verstappen to lead the world championship for the first time in his career after one of his "toughest" ever races. Charles Leclerc's Ferrari completed the podium for this fifth round of the season under the floodlights at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit. Piastri's third win this year was in large part decided at the first turn, when Verstappen picked up a five-second penalty for gaining an advantage after going off the track.
Padraic Joyce described his Galway players as exceptional in defeating Roscommon today and welcomed his belief they are no longer seen as a "one man band" in relying on a star player.
