World No. 56 Juan Manuel Cerundolo pulled off a stunning upset at the 2026 French Open, knocking out top seed Jannik Sinner in a dramatic second-round comeback at Roland-Garros. Sinner dominated early, taking the first two sets 6-3, 6-2 and leading 5-1 in the third before the match turned sharply in the Paris heat.

Crystal Palace didn’t want to be in the third-tier Conference League and Jean-Philippe Mateta nearly left the club. On Wednesday, it was Mateta’s goal that won Palace the title. A season which began with pleas to play in a higher competition ended with Palace’s first-ever European trophy as Mateta’s goal lifted his team to a 1-0 win over Rayo Vallecano in the final. The French forward, who was close to leaving in January before a transfer collapsed, scored on a rebound in the 51st minute after Rayo goalkeeper Augusto Batalla parried Adam Wharton’s long-range shot. Along with giving outgoing coach Oliver Glasner the perfect send-off, Palace’s win, which came in its first season playing in Europe, keeps English teams on track for a sweep of the three main European men’s club competitions.
