Leverkusen rout Dusseldorf, head to cup final

Pep Guardiola has said he has to “prove himself” all over again after Manchester City’s six-game winless run and added the only reason there are not more questions about whether he should be sacked is because he’s won six Premier League titles.

Carlo Ancelotti said “we’ll see” if Real Madrid can add to their squad in January after an approach for Trent Alexander-Arnold was rejected.
