20 things we loved this weekend: Mount, Martinelli, Sancho, Pep & more
Instead of action from the players, it was the anti-Glazer protest from Manchester United fans that led the news in the Premier League this weekend.
Elsewhere, Inter Milan clinched their first Serie A title in 11 years and Rangers rubbed salt into Celtic’s wounds with a 4-1 win in the Old Firm derby.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the field.

The best moment from the United protest.

Lukaku enjoyed a one-man victory parade after Inter Milan were crowned Serie A champions.
