Celtic and Rangers face a nerve-shredding end to the Scottish Premier League season as the title race reaches its climax on Thursday.

Gordon Strachan's side travel to Dundee United, while Rangers visit Aberdeen.

Both Old Firm sides are locked on 86 points, with Celtic's goal difference four better off than their rivals.

Celtic captain Stephen McManus wants to win the title in memory of late coach Tommy Burns, while Gers boss Walter Smith has no regrets over the campaign.

Gordon Strachan is trying to steer Celtic to their third consecutive SPL crown, while Smith wants to add the title to the CIS Cup - with the Scottish Cup final against Queen of the South still to be played on Saturday and his side having also reached the Uefa Cup final, where th

Cristiano Ronaldo refused to confirm he will stay at Manchester United after Wednesday's Champions League triumph.

Winger Ronaldo, 23, has been repeatedly linked with a move to Real Madrid but United have insisted he is staying put.

"I don't promise nothing," he said. "I don't promise nothing to my mum, I don't promise nothing to supporters.

"I want to stay but the future - no-one knows. I want to stay. We are going to see in the next two weeks, I don't say I make a decision."

Ronaldo scored the opening goal in Wednesday's final against Chelsea but missed in the penalty shoot-out, before goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar won the trophy with a save from Nicolas Anelka.

Fulham manager Roy Hodgson has made Middlesbrough goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer his first signing of the summer.

The 35-year-old Australian has ended an 11-year career on Teesside by agreeing a two-year deal at Craven Cottage.

"I am delighted to have joined Fulham and look forward immensely to the new challenge in my career," he told the club's website.

"I spent many happy years at Middlesbrough and would like to thank everyone for their valued support."

He added: "Although I had other offers from some great clubs throughout Europe, it didn't take long to make a decision about joining Fulham."

Motherwell assistant boss Scott Leitch says neither he nor manager Mark McGhee have been approached by Hearts to become their new management team.

BBC Scotland understands Hearts' caretaker manager Stevie Frail is to leave the Edinburgh club.

Leitch has denied reports that he and McGhee will meet Hearts owner Vladimir Romanov next week.

"We've heard all the speculation, but no one has spoken to Motherwell about it," Leitch told BBC Sport.

England's friendly match against Trinidad and Tobago on 1 June could be cancelled in a domestic row over rental terms for the stadium.

The country's Ministry of Sports owns the Hasely Crawford Stadium.

But the Caribbean nation's football federation (TTFF) are in dispute with them over advertising and rental fees.

Fifa vice-president Jack Warner, a TTFF special advisor, said unless the terms of the agreement were changed the England match would be cancelled.
