17 things we loved this weekend: Aubameyang, Saka, Kane, Levitt…
Barcelona maintained their recent momentum and stole the show over the weekend with a stunning 4-0 win against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
Elsewhere, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Crystal Palace booked their place in the FA Cup semi-final and Roma beat Lazio 3-0 in the Derby Capitolino.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.
Luke Ayling
Ayling’s Robbie Keane impression didn’t exactly go to plan.

Harry Kane & Son Heung-min
What a duo.
20 – Over half of Harry Kane's Premier League assists have now come for Son Heung-min (20/39); only Frank Lampard (24 to Didier Drogba) and David Silva (21 to Sergio Agüero) have assisted a single teammate more in the competition's history. Wavelength. pic.twitter.com/mA1dmBr1aA
