Martinelli hat-trick sends Arsenal past Portsmouth in FA Cup, Man Utd beaten

Gabriel Martinelli scored his first hat-trick for Arsenal as the Premier League leaders beat second-tier strugglers Portsmouth 4-1 to reach the FA Cup fourth round on Sunday, Reuters reported. 

The Brazilian was criticised in midweek for his behaviour after Liverpool's Conor Bradley suffered a serious injury near the end of their Premier League clash on Thursday but ended the week in style with his first goals in the FA Cup.

Manchester United bowed out though as they lost 2-1 at home to Brighton and Hove Albion with Danny Welbeck on target against his former club, according to Reuters. 

Milan salvage draw at Fiorentina with late Nkunku goal

Christopher Nkunku scored in the 90th minute to earn AC Milan a 1-1 draw at Fiorentina on Sunday but, despite extending their unbeaten league run, the visitors continue to lose ground in the Serie A title race with their second stalemate in four days, Reuters reported. 

Milan remain second on 40 points, two behind Inter Milan who could increase their lead when they host champions Napoli later on Sunday, while Fiorentina are third from bottom on 14 points.

"I'm not thinking about it (Inter v Napoli) at all," Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri told DAZN, according to Reuters. 

Bayern crush own-goal kings Wolfsburg 8-1 to stretch lead at top

Bayern Munich, helped by two record-breaking VfL Wolfsburg own goals and two from man-of-the-match Michael Olise, demolished the visitors 8-1 in the Bundesliga on Sunday to extend their lead at the top, as the league resumed after its winter break, Reuters reported. 

The reigning champions, who are undefeated in the league this season, are on 44 points, 11 ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund. RB Leipzig, with a game in hand, are third on 29, as many as Bayer Leverkusen and fifth-placed VfB Stuttgart.

"It's not normal (for such a result), it's not a given and we should not forget that," Bayern coach Vincent Kompany said. "The first half was really not easy. But I had the feeling that when they get a bit tired, we'd create even more chances – and that's exactly what happened in the second half."

The match at King Abdullah Sports City Stadium turned into a thriller, with four goals packed into a breathless phase at the end of the first half.

After an even opening spell, Barcelona gradually asserted control before the interval, and were rewarded in the 36th minute when Raphinha burst into the box and drilled a low shot into the far corner to give his side the lead, according to Reuters.
