The last of the big leagues.

With just Serie A still playing next week out of the main European leagues, expect the quality of TOTWs to drop significantly, with leagues such as the MLS taking up the majority of places soon. With it being the last, there are a lot of very big names included this week, so let’s begin.

As the Premier League TOTS being in packs just now, Harry Kane will be excluded despite scoring 7 in his two games this week. Instead, Heung Min Son and Ben Davies should receive informs for their performances, with Son getting 2 goals and 2 assists over both games, and Davies scoring in Spurs’ 7-1 win. After missing out on the TOTS, Sergio Agüero should get an IF for his 2 goals and 1 assist from City's 5-0 thrashing of Watford. Finally, Georginio Wijnaldum was Liverpool's hero as they won 3-0 to qualify for the Champions League, with the Dutch midfielder scoring the first and assisting the 3rd goals.

In Germany, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice to steal the Golden Boot from former teammate Robert Lewandowski. However, as I expect him to get a TOTS this week, I have opted for his striker partner Marco Reus, who also scored twice in a 4-3 win, which secured Dortmund an automatic spot in next seasons Champions League. At the opposite end of the table, Christian Mathenia was the hero for Hamburg, as they avoided the relegation playoff thanks to an 88th minute winner. Mathenia was voted the Kicker POTW for his 4 saves, including one very late on to keep the game at 2-1 against relegation rivals Wolfsburg.

Real Madrid rounded off an excellent season with their first league title in 5 years thanks to a 2-0 win over Malaga. Keylor Navas made 6 saves to keep Real in the lead and guarantee the title. Sevilla had already confirmed a fourth place finish but ended the season on a high with a 5-0 win. Vitolo was their star, scoring once and setting up another two goals.

Juventus finally wrapped up the Serie A title with a 3-0 win over Crotone after Roma and Napoli pushed them all the way. Paulo Dybala claimed the MOTM award for his goal and assist to help them stay four points clear with one game to go. Elsewhere, Sassuolo were this week’s highest scorers, putting 6 past Cagliari as they won 6-2. Domenico Berardi was the MOTM thanks to his goal and 2 assists. Finally, I have taken a punt on Napoli's Kalidou Koulibaly, who scored in their 4-1 win. He was not MOTM, but with a real lack of defenders, I think he has a chance of making the cut.

The soon-departing Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette put on a show in what was probably his final game for the club, scoring twice in a 3-3 draw against Nice. Nicolas de Préville has been in fine form lately, and kept going this week as he carried Lille to a 3-0 win, scoring all 3 goals in the match. Lastly, Fallou Diagne helped bring the already relegated Nancy's Ligue 1 adventure to an end with a goal in their 3-1 win over Saint Etienne.
