2020/21 International Club Football Thread

neat moment for Robbie Savage, who is doing colour for BT Sports tonight, as his son is coming on for United.

[devo22]

here's the draw:

Benfica - Real
Villareal - Man City
Atletico - Bayern
Salzburg - Liverpool
Inter - Ajax
Sporting - Juventus
Chelsea - Lille
PSG - Man United

right now there's confusion whether it will stand though. They forgot to put United into the draw for Atletico. He says United have already been drawn, which was wrong - they had drawn United with Villareal at first by mistake and had to re-do it. What a mess.

Haha, they’re redoing the draw. They really are hilariously inept.

They know that they can mechanize this process right?

They dont have to drag up some half-dead old dudes to futz around with kinder-egg containers on TV.

Just program it with the parameters, press the button and release the results.

Inter and Real Madrid have to be pissed about that now.

Go from Ajax / Benfica to Liverpool / PSG

[devo22]

if Perez is pissed, it was worth it.

I mean pure idiocy from Kounde, but what an all-time flop by Jordi Alba, full head snap even though the ball hits him in the shoulder.

That Bayern match was a chore.

I'll take that Liverpool result though.

The Serie A might be the best domestic league right now in terms of entertainment, and great title races every year.

But it's because the league doesn't have any of the top club teams in the world that will make noise on the Champions League stage right now.

Not a Rangers fan at all but that was a great result and performance against Dortmund. A positive look for Scottish football.

Gonna go to a Costa Rican primera match this weekend.

Deportivo Saprissa (my friends favourite team, from San Jose and I believe the countries most popular), vs Guadalupe who are top of the table. Although, decent parity and only about 6/7 matches played. Will be at Saprissa’ stadium, that holds 20,000.

Should be fun!

With the current situation with Russia, it’ll be interesting to see if the CL final is moved. I can’t see many of the European countries excited to hold the final there at this point.
