Football never lets up, and today we woke up with the emotional aftermath of a historic celebration in San Sebastián and the European glory of Real Madrid’s youth team.

While Madrid’s first team is fighting for its life in the domestic title race, FIFA’s offices are buzzing over the venue for the next World Cup final.

Álvaro Arbeloa’s side faces an early final at the Santiago Bernabéu. They host Alavés with the absolute need to take all three points to stop FC Barcelona from pulling away for good in the standings. Any slip-up today would leave LaLiga all but decided in the Blaugrana’s favor.

La Fábrica is ruling Europe once again. Real Madrid’s youth team were crowned Youth League champions yesterday after a nerve-racking penalty shootout against Benfica. Goalkeeper Javi Navarro became the hero of the night by saving two spot-kicks, bringing this prestigious trophy back to Madrid’s cabinet after six years without it.

Donostia experienced an unprecedented "massive party" yesterday. More than 200,000 people flooded the city’s streets to celebrate Real Sociedad’s Copa del Rey triumph. A blue-and-white tide that shows the total bond between the team and a fanbase that had waited decades for a success of this magnitude.

The other side of the coin comes from England. Wolverhampton have officially become the first team relegated from Europe’s major leagues this season. Their defeat last night sealed a disastrous campaign, marking the end of a cycle for a club that failed to turn its sporting crisis around in time.

The battle over the host venue is heating up. Although FIFA still prefers the Santiago Bernabéu in Madrid for the World Cup final, Morocco is not backing down. The Moroccan government continues to push hard to bring the decisive match to the new stadium in Casablanca, in what has already become a clash of geopolitical interests.
