    Kevin-Prince Boateng cries after “bitter” Hertha Berlin relegation

    Former Ghanaian international, Kevin-Prince Boateng, was captured in a tearful state following the relegation of his boyhood club, Hertha Berlin, from the German Bundesliga over the weekend.

    Hertha Berlin’s descent to the Bundesliga 2 was confirmed after a 1-1 draw against Bochum at their home stadium on Saturday.

    Boateng, who was in the starting lineup for the match, played for 64 minutes, aiming to assist his team in their battle against relegation until the end of the season.

    However, that was far from being achieved as they settled for a stalemate, confirming their relegation.

    The 36-year-old was left emotional by the relegation of Hertha Berlin to Germany’s second tier.

    “I can’t realize it yet,” Boateng told reported after the game. “It is just bitter, I love this club. I came here and I knew that not everything would be rosy. The fans are angry, disappointed and sad, that is completely normal.

    “I can understand them, I am a Hertha fan myself.”

    And now, a supercomputer has predicted how the final table will look with just two weeks to go.

    Arsenal’s 3-0 loss to Brighton did them no favours in the title race after Manchester City cruised to victory over Everton.

    Meanwhile, Manchester United took a big step towards the Champions League after beating Wolves 2-0.

    The pressure will now be on Liverpool to deliver against Leicester this evening if they hope to catch the Red Devils.

    Southampton’s relegation from the top flight was also confirmed after a 2-0 loss to Fulham.

    Draws for Leeds and Nottingham Forest against Newcastle and Chelsea respectively are keeping the bottom teams honest.

    But what does the final table look like?

    Well, using data provided by BETSiE from bettingexpert.com has predicted how the final table will look at the end of May 28.

    At the top of the tree, City will cash in on their new lead to win the title over Arsenal by 5.2 points.

    The top four will also see a change in the order, but not from the outside, with the computer predicting Man Utd to overtake Newcastle for third by the slimmest of margins – 0.1 points to be precise.

    It means Liverpool are predicted to finish fifth, with Brighton joining them in the Europa League while Tottenham compete in the Europa Conference League as Aston Villa miss out on European football.

    At the bottom, Leeds and Leicester are predicted to join the Saints in relegation to the Championship, with both sat roughly two points adrift from Everton and Nottingham Forest.
