The stalemate was enough, however, as Mansfield’s defeat at Oldham left the Stags nine points behind Danny Cowley’s team with just two matches remaining. The point also secured a play-off spot for Tranmere.


Mansfield lost 3-2 at Boundary Park, where Mohamed Maouche scored in between Gevaro Nepomuceno’s double for the Latics. Tyler Walker and Neal Bishop replied for the Stags, who twice found themselves two goals behind.


Bury moved above Mansfield into second place with a 3-1 home win against Northampton, who led through Andy Williams’ strike. Goals from Chris Stokes, Danny Mayor and Nicky Maynard completed the turnaround for the Shakers.















MK Dons, who host Mansfield in the final game of the season, missed the chance to move into the automatic promotion places after they had to settle for a 1-1 home draw with Port Vale. Kieran Agard saw a first-half penalty saved and Tom Conlon put Vale in front early in the second half. However, David Wheeler quickly equalised.


Forest Green also made sure of a play-off spot with a 2-1 home win against Cambridge. Gavin Gunning and Christian Doidge scored either side of Paul Lewis’ equalising goal for United.


Exeter stay in the final play-off place after coming from behind to draw 1-1 at Stevenage, who are one of the teams trying to chase them down. Kurtis Guthrie put Boro ahead but Ryan Bowman levelled things up before the break.


Colchester remain in the hunt for a top-seven spot despite drawing 1-1 at relegation fighting Yeovil. Jake Gray put the Glovers in front and the visitors then had goalkeeper Dillion Barnes sent off but managed an equaliser through Tom Eastman.

Yeovil remain in the relegation places and two points behind Macclesfield after the Silkmen’s goalless draw with Newport, while Notts County stay bottom of the table and two points adrift of safety after a 1-1 draw at Crawley.


Craig Mackail-Smith scored to give the Magpies an early lead but Ashley Nathaniel-George equalised midway through the first half. Notts County survived a red card for Ben Barclay after 55 minutes to earn a point.


Joe Grayson’s injury time goal gave Grimsby a 1-0 win against Carlisle at Blundell Park while Morecambe were 4-0 winners against Cheltenham. Aaron Collins missed a 21st-minute penalty for the Shrimps but he made amends by completing the scoring late on after goals from Vadaine Oliver, Kevin Ellison and Sam Lavelle.


Chris Porter scored twice in Crewe’s 2-1 win at Swindon, who pulled a goal back courtesy of Michael Doughty’s penalty.

Tottenham vs Liverpool: Loris Karius ‘turns down invite to attend Champions League final’

Loris Karius has reportedly turned down the chance to watch the Champions League final in Madrid over fears he will be a distraction.


The shot-stopper played a major role in last season’s final for Liverpool against Real Madrid – for all the wrong reasons.

His two calamitous errors in the showpiece in Kiev ruined Jurgen Klopp’s chances of winning his first piece of silverware as Liverpool boss.


Klopp subsequently packed him off on a two-year loan to Beskitas, with few believing he will feature again for the Reds.


Despite that, he is understood to have been invited to attend the match against Spurs this weekend along with other players who have been out on loan.


But the Daily Mail claim Karius has decided to go on holiday rather than attend the showpiece at Atletico Madrid’s Wanda Metropolitano on Saturday evening.


Liverpool chiefs are said to be supportive of his decision to remain out of the limelight for the match.











Since his nightmare night in Kiev, things haven’t got much better for Karius.


He has made several high-profile errors in the Turkish Super Lig this term and Beskitas boss Senol Gunes recently had some harsh words for the glovesman.

Gunes said: “He was at fault for the goals he conceded. Karius has gone a bit stagnant, something is wrong with his electricity, motivation, enthusiasm for the game.


“It has been like that since the beginning. He does not really feel a part of the team.

“It’s something we haven’t been able to work out and, of course, I am partly to blame for this.


“Something is wrong, he has also been unlucky. [He] is talented but it hasn’t worked out and we have a problem.


“Let me put it this way, if I still had [my other goalkeeper] Tolga available I would play him.”


Karius’ partner Sophia Thomalia, a German actress, also revealed the word ‘LOSER’ had been sprayed on her car on Tuesday.


Thomalla, 29, sarcastically captioned the snap on her Instagram; “na klasse” – which translates to ‘no class’.

The Yorkshire-born winger made his debut for Wales last November, with Old Trafford legend Ryan Giggs handing him his first cap. He scored his first goal on his second appearance, netting the only strike of the game in a March defeat of Slovakia.


James was close to joining Swansea’s Championship rivals Leeds United during the January transfer window, with the player reportedly at Elland Road ready to be unveiled before the move collapsed.











The Manchester Evening News reported that new Brighton manager Graham Potter, who managed Swansea last season, wanted to take the winger to the Amex Stadium.


The Seagulls have given up on that pursuit, though, with James all but certain to move to Old Trafford.
