LONDON (AP) ― Manchester United lost 2-1 at relegation-threatened Stoke in the Premier League on Saturday, leaving the defending champions with a huge task to finish in position for the Champions League.
United entered the game buoyed by the arrival of Juan Mata. Instead, the seventh-place club was sent to its eighth defeat of the season. Liverpool holds the fourth and final Champions League place and could go nine points ahead of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday.
Charlie Adam scored both of Stoke’s goals at Britannia Stadium. Robin van Persie had tied the score for United.
United’s day was complicated by first-half injuries to Jonny Evans and Phil Jones, forcing them to leave. This was Stoke’s first win over United in the Premier League and first since 1984.
Cardiff pulled out of last place by scoring two goals in 73 seconds at the start of the second half to defeat Norwich 2-1. That left Fulham, which was overwhelmed 3-0 at home to Southampton, two points behind in last place.
West Ham completes the bottom three even though it beat Swansea 2-0. Sunderland earned a second straight 3-0 win at Newcastle.
Spain
Barcelona stumbled to a 3-2 home loss against Valencia, giving Atletico Madrid a chance to move into sole possession of first place in the Spanish league.
Barcelona’s decision not to sign a defender during the January transfer window may have backfired after Valencia took advantage of a lethargic effort by its hosts at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona led through Alexis Sanchez’s eighth-minute goal but Dani Parejo tied it for Valencia before the break. Pablo Piatti’s header put Valencia in front before Lionel Messi’s penalty kick ― and first league goal since September ― evened it again. But Barcelona’s defense let Sofiane Feghouli burst free into the area to set up Paco Alcacer’s 59th-minute winner.
