Inter Milan celebrated their fifth Scudetto title in a row, after a 1-0 nervy win at Siena. AS Roma pushed them all the way with a 2-0 win at Chievo Verona but Inter did enough. Inter boss Jose Mourinho said: “It has been the most difficult Scudetto.”
In the race for Champions League football, Sampdoria claimed the fourth and final spot with a 1-0 victory over Napoli courtesy of Giampaolo Pazzini’s strike. Palermo narrowly missed out despite winning 2-1 at relegated Atalanta Bergamo.
Indeed the relegated clubs were already decided with Atalanta, Siena and Livorno dropping into Serie B.

In the Champions League battle, Sevilla claimed the fourth and final place with a 3-2 win at Almeria despite Mallorca defeating Espanyol 2-0. Meanwhile, Getafe qualify for the Europa League after a final day 3-0 win at Atletico Madrid.
The relegation battle was dramatic with Tenerife and Valladolid the two to go down along with bottom-club Xerez. Tenerife lost 1-0 at Valencia, while Valladolid lost at Barcelona. It gave them no chance as Santander beat Gijon 2-0 to survive, while Malaga’s 1-1 draw with Real helped them too.
English FA Cup
>
| Chelsea | 1 |
| Portsmouth | 0 |
Chelsea did the league and cup double for the first time in their history with an amazing 1-0 victory over Portsmouth in the FA Cup final on Saturday at Wembley.
The Blues hit the post five times in the first-half, before the relegated and financially troubled Portsmouth won a second-half penalty. Kevin-Prince Boateng incredibly scuffed his shot and Petr Cech saved, before Didier Drogba made them pay minutes later with an esquisite free-kick goal.
German DFB Pokal
| Bayern Munich | 4 |
| Werder Bremen | 0 |
Louis van Gaal’s Bayern Munich kept alive their hopes of an unprecedented treble following an emphatic 4-0 thrashing of Werder Bremen in the final of the DFB Pokal in Berlin.
A first-half Arjen Robben penalty, was followed up by goals from Ivica Olic, Franck Ribery and Bastian Schweinsteiger as Bayern cruised to victory. They’ve now claimed the league and cup and have their eyes on the UEFA Champions League final.
Random League: Turkish Super Lig

For only the second time ever, one of Turkey’s big three has failed to lift the Super Lig title after Bursaspor defied the odds and won the trophy. Bursaspor’s 2-1 final day win over reigning champions Besiktas gave them hope and when Fenerbahce could only manage a 1-1 draw with Trabzonspor, the title was there’s.
Elsewhere, Galatasaray, Besiktas and Trabzonspor qualified for the Europa League, while down the bottom, Diyarbakirspor and Denizlispor dropped out.
