Leaders Chelsea and title rivals Arsenal played out a feisty goalless Premier League draw at the Emirates Stadium with much of the discussion centring on four penalty shouts all turned down.
The most prominent involved David Ospina s clumsy first-half collision with Oscar in a keenly-contested stalemate that saw Cesc Fabregas booed on his return to his former club and Jose Mourinho maintain his unbeaten record against Arsene Wenger.
With Diego Costa and Loic Remy injured, Oscar began as the figurehead of Chelsea s attack and was central to the game s biggest talking point as he nodded a header past the onrushing David Ospina.
However, the Brazilian was pole-axed by the Arsenal goalkeeper and, after the effort was cleared away by Hector Bellerin, Chelsea s …
Championship Cardiff City lost the Carling Cup final against Liverpool on penalties after a brave 2-2 draw.
They may have lost the game but there were signs that this Cardiff team could be realistic promotion candidates this season.
Outstanding
The Bluebirds players were simply outstanding. They fought for every ball, they stopped Liverpool from playing and at times they tried to play football. I don’t think their supporters could have asked for anything more against a team from a tier above.
Inspiration
I really hope they take inspiration from this game into their Championship campaign because at times they have looked superb in the second tier this season. Their league form has suffered slightly in the last few weeks but they are still sixth …

Luciano Spalletti hopes Inter s 0-0 draw away at Juventus will prove to his players they have the required quality to compete in Serie A this season.
The Nerazzurri became the first side to prevent the reigning champions from scoring in a home league game since Udinese in August 2015, with the stalemate enough to see them retain top spot in the table.
They needed the help of the woodwork to pick up a point though, with Mario Mandzukic s first-half header kept out by the crossbar in a game of few chances.
While they barely tested Juve goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, Inter s stoic defensive display on their travels is a further indication of the talent in the squad, according to their head coach.
In the first 20 minutes, we kept the ball well right up to …

Obviously it affects us, Varane told Europe1. We follow what is happening and what is being said.

Crystal Palace striker Christian Benteke is the quintessential target man and should thrive on the endless crosses being whipped into the box.
Crystal Palace recently confirmed the signing of Belgian striker Christian Benteke in a bid to bolster their impotent attack, and the 25-year-old man will have a point to prove after his failed spell at Liverpool.
New teammate Damien Delaney highlighted how good support will see him shine this season, and support from cross-happy wingers is something Palace have in abundance.
Benteke’s Premier League scoring record bodes well for Palace
Goals were a problem for Crystal Palace in 2015/16. The Eagles were the joint-third-lowest scorers in the Premier League with 39 goals from 38 games, while having failing to scor…

Renato Sanches has completed a reported €25million move to Lille days after bemoaning Bayern Munich s apparent refusal to sell him.
Portugal international Sanches looked one of world football s most exciting talents when he starred on the big stage at Euro 2016, earning a lucrative transfer from Benfica to Bayern.

The midfielder said Bayern twice prev…
