Can covering too much ground explain teams running out of gas? We rank every team in the Premier League, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Serie A and Ligue 1 by how much they sprint.

Only days after a midweek masterclass for Serhou Guirassy in the Champions League, the Guinea striker was once again among the goals as Borussia Dortmund continued their push for a return to next season's UCL.

Bayer Leverkusen's CEO has said the club has a "gentleman's agreement" with Xabi Alonso that means he could take over at Real Madrid or Liverpool.

Bayer Leverkusen centre-back Jonathan Tah has said will leave the club this summer, although he would not specify where he might end up.

If not for Fede Valverde's golazo, Real may have lost LaLiga on Sunday. That and more in ESPN's Weekend Review.
