Manchester United's Paul Pogba warms up on the pitch ahead of the Premier League match against Leeds United at Elland Road, Leeds. Picture date: Sunday February 20, 2022.

18 things we loved this weekend: Pogba, Thiago, Kane, Keane & more

The weekend’s headlines were dominated by the thrilling Premier League match between Tottenham and Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with Harry Kane scoring a late winner that re-opened a title race that had seemed closed.

But there was plenty of other entertainment to be had, both in the Premier League and elsewhere. The Roses Derby between Leeds and Manchester United was a cracker and there was plenty of action to lap up from around Europe and the world.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the field.
