Around Europe: Mourinho's masterclass, Dortmund's emotions, Milan's direction
After a dramatic, and traumatic, week of Champions League action, league games were back on the agenda over the weekend, and there were plenty of talking points to take.
There was a twist in the Premier League title race when Manchester United beat league-leading Chelsea at Old Trafford, opening the door even more for Tottenham to get closer.
In Spain's La Liga, Athletic Bilbao could be after a new coach, while in the German Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund is still coming to terms with the horror of last week’s terrifying bus attack.
There was a Chinese feel to the Milan derby (which had a dramatic ending), while in France, Lyon encountered even more fan trouble, the latest incident at Bastia, which caused a match to be abandoned.
