Mark Hughes Stoke City side sent his former club Fulham into the Championship with a 4-1 victory at the Britannia Stadium on Saturday.
Felix Magath had never previously suffered relegation during his managerial career, but the German s impressive record came to an end as his men were swept aside by rampant Stoke in a one-sided Premier League clash.
Sunderland s victory at Manchester United ensures the London club s 13-season stay in the top flight is over and the manner in which they were beaten at Stoke will have been difficult to take for Fulham s supporters.
Peter Odemwingie opened the scoring with his sixth goal since his move from Cardiff City, whose relegation was also confirmed on Saturday.
Marko Arnautovic doubled Stoke s lead in a game that they dominate…
Portuguese champions Porto face a tough road trip to Russia on Thursday to take on Zenit St Petersburg in the Champions League.
Porto began their 2011/12 European campaign with a 2-1 win at home against Ukraine s Shakhtar Donetsk, but will face a much tougher task when they travel from one side of the continent to the other to face Luciano Spalletti s Zenit.
The Russians were shock 2-1 losers against Cypriot s APOEL in their Group G opener on September 13, and need to make the most of their home fixtures if they are to qualify for the knockout stages.
Although the two sides have never met, Porto have never lost on Russian soil and won two matches there on their march to last season s Europa League title, scoring six goals in the process.
Despite losing s…

Tottenham are believed to have rejected a world-record bid from Real Madrid for Gareth Bale
According to Daily Mail and other newspapers, Tottenham are believed to have rejected a world record bid for Welsh superstar Gareth Bale, depending on which newspaper you read the bid was between £82million and £86million.
Chairman Daniel Levy appears determined to keep Bale at White Hart Lane and looks set to reject all bids for Tottenham’s star player.
Upset
The player himself is believed to be upset by the bid being rejected and the fact that Levy would not even consider the bid.
It seems that Bale now has his heart set on moving to the Bernabeu to play with likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Mesut Ozil.
Real Madrid is without a doubt one of the…
Ferran Torres believes he is ready for a new challenge, with Manchester City and Valencia this week agreeing a fee for the winger.
Stats Perform News understands City will pay an initial £21.3million (€23m), plus further add-ons, for the Spain Under-21 international.
Talks between the clubs are on-going, but an agreement on the wider terms of the deal is thought to be close as City look to bolster their wing options following the departure of Leroy Sane to Bayern Munich.
Right-winger Ferran, 20, has shown significant promise ever since his senior debut as a 17-year-old and enjoyed a breakthrough campaign in 2019-20, making the most of Goncalo Guedes long-term injury absence to become a regular starter.
But with his contract set to expire next year and …
Cole Palmer is a Blue.
And he’s here to stay.
— Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC)
I’m delighted to sign this new deal, Palmer said. I achieved a lot in my first season here, and hopefully I can continue to experience great things at this club, both on a personal level and in terms of bringing success and trophies to Chelsea.
Despite Maresca welcoming nine new faces at Stamford Bridge, the latest being Pedro Neto, Palmer s place in the team looks secure after last season s heroics.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Omari Kellyman and Marc Guiu are just a few to make the move to Stamford Bridge this transfer window, taking their spending well over the £150m mark.
Chelsea kickstart their Premier League campaign this weekend against Palmer s former cl…
