ah ha! So the team with the offensive name that you referenced in a debate about the Washington NFL team was either your highschool or college team.

Well thanks for dredging that discussion up again. Didn’t you see the part where I got yelled at?

It was more of a quiet word - no worries mate, though Warbler somehow missed the request to get back on topic.

G! O! - O! N! I! O! N! S!, or something 😉
 

Smart ground Philadelphia has, good to see the MLS evolving and it’s clubs having their own purpose-built stadiums - ‘B’ teams and leagues for upcoming players (at a substantial discount on ticket prices) - with some clubs featuring strong community links too.

Am quite intrigued to see how hosting the 2026 World Cup will have on soccer in the US (and Mexico & Canada too).

^ not one for the footballing purist that Super Cup game 😉

Why is that?

Atletico aren’t known for their attractive football - they grind out results, and it’s not easy on the eye to watch at times. However, it is very effective, they are masters at it - and they were underdogs for many years, so fair play to them for playing that way (big respect a good organised defence). For Real, - of late they seem have become somewhat of a flat-track bully - easily good enough to beat most teams - yet when they play a similar quality team that resort to somewhat negative tactics, and rely heavily on a piece of brilliance to get them the win. The quality of flowing football isn’t there as it once was. Again, nowt wrong with that - each to their own etc - yet not pleasant to watch at times.

Masreille and Liverpool - generally try and play open attractive football - almost to a fault. Both overplay at times when they should see a game out (take the sting out of game) or defend as a unit for a period of the game and then go again. It makes for an appealing spectacle - even when it all goes wrong and they’ll lose - you’ll see some quality footy, goals and a bit of excitement. This is often reflected by both teams’ fans - loud, passionate and can intimidate an opposition side at times.

So, from a ‘footballing purist’ point of view - and that Mala and me support both those clubs - if our teams had won we’d have met each other in the Super Cup - and it would be a pretty enjoyable game or spectacle to watch. Real vs Atletico - not so much. Just my opinion, of course… 😃

What does “smart ground” mean?

A ‘neat’ ground, a cool ground - with a superb view of the bridge! Seems modern and purpose-built - so better suited for a soccer fan. You can see it may likely have a soul when the fans are in it; cheering their team on.

Manchester Utd beat PSG away 3-1, going through on the away goal rule (after losing the 1st leg 2-0). Highlights - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYd_hE0At1o

 

Juventus beat Atletico 3-0 and go through. Highlights - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOozEgRbMO8

The Champions League Quarter-Final Draw:-

Spurs beat Man City, 4-4 on aggregate (Spurs go through on away goals) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=insYFfPrrFo
Liverpool beat Porto, 6-1 on aggregate - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qp3i_TVlI5k
Barcelona beat Man Utd, 4-0 on aggregate - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G84nbLfT95w
Ajax beat Juventus, 3-2 on aggregate - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q5g8kD92nY

^ Man City thinking they’d scored a 93rd minute injury-time goal, in a fantastic end-to-end and topsy-turvy match, to take them through to the Semi-Final - yet to only have it ruled out by VAR for offside… that must hurt…

 

The CL Semi-Final Draw is:-

Spurs 0-1 Ajax, Spurs come back from 2-0 down to win 3-2 in the 2nd leg… in injury time!

Barcelona 3-0 Liverpool, then Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona in the 2nd leg - https://streamable.com/cf1zg 😃

I just can’t stop laughing about the fourth goal 😄

I like Ajax but Klopp deserves to get the Cup this time. And if only City could do a draw this week end…

😃

It was like schoolboy / amateur stuff - everyone switches off and turns their back on the play…
 

Loved the way Ajax has played this season - I don’t think they’ve received the full credit and respect for beating Real Madrid and Juventus that they deserve, especially in the manner they did. I hope they do well tomorrow vs Spurs - should be a cracking game too.
 

and c’mon Brighton for the weekend vs Man City 😉 Though Liverpool may have a few injuries and tiredness after from tonight’s exploits - and Wolves are a decent side playing good footy…

Good luck to Liverpool and Arsenal next week.
It is shame and unfortunate that Mkhitaryan is not playing Europa final for Arsenal because of Azerbaijan not liking Armenians. UEFA must do better when choose a place to play final

This one, mate?

I was very, very nervy 😃 The referee made some ‘interesting decisions’ throughout… Flamengo were quality and dogged, and probed away well and forcing Alisson into some quality saves). Yet thankfully we managed to get a couple of quality ‘final balls’ through to make the difference…

Great to be ‘Champions Of The World’ 😃
