good atmosphere / game that Qarabag game

Israeli clubs should not be allowed to compete in UEFA competitions. Not ordinarily for obvious geographical reasons and certainly not this season while they're involved in the ongoing slaughter of innocent civilians. Fingers crossed for a home win in Florence to send Haifa crashing out. 

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

I said in July when the Dons got PAOK that they were a great attacking side and they have proved that in their Conference campaign. 5-3 on agg against Dinamo Zagreb. Looked like extra time was on the cards, but PAOK powered on to get two more goals, the third a pen. Excellent attacking side, they should be top of the Greek league, but they slipped up against Aris at the weekend.

Huns are out, they played well, but Benfica were relentless and the Huns weren't, they didn't have much ideas.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

I'm rooting (steady) for Qarabag and Molde. Bodo/Glimt did well in 2021/22 Conference, beaten 5-2 by Roma who won the cup against Feyenoord.

Atalanta might be a dark horse in Europa, come to think of it. Italian clubs are such a cunt to beat at home. Libson might do it, though, 1-1 on agg there.

 

Liverpool / West Ham / Roma for the Final, surely? Weird shit will happen, always does.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

It's weird as fuck that Ajax are in Conference. Villa can do it. It will be some match...

Bloody ridiculous. I don't do international football but that's just sickening.

Russian and Belorussian athletes will be at the Paris Olympics this year, but as neutral athletes not representing their countries.

I'm not in favour of banning athletes from their sports when they themselves have done nothing wrong. Their job is to train hard and play by the rules. Their governments have to adhere to international law and human rights. The two pursuits aren't related. What the English F.A. and national team get up to is not related to what the politicians in Westminster get up to.

Russia should be allowed to play in Nations League and World Cup qualifiers, I feel. Russia has been largely absent at the World Cup this century so far, apart from poor performances at 2002, 2014 and their excellent performance at their 2018 World Cup. Bans like this don't help the game. Indonesia's hosting of the 2023 Under-20 World Cup was terrible, a farce, it had an impact on the attendances with the hosting being shifted to Argentina.

No, I'm not a fan of banning nations in sports. Kenya being suspended by FIFA was ridiculous. It's so arbitrary, FIFA don't have solid criteria for whom they suspend. They should only impose fines, banning just creates rancour and FIFA aim to promote friendship and harmony through football, so it makes no sense to disinvite nations to their world parties.

Go on the Carrier Bag .

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

56 mins: Leverkusen 2 - 3 Qarabag!

Q'bag on the counter, Zoubir with a header, he briefly played for Hibs on loan, Butcher didnae like him (racist cunt).

63 mins: Q'bag down to 10 men again, same guy who got sent off in group stage.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Villa 3 - 0 Ajax

Ajax have looked soft, fans will be losing their shit.

Well done to Villa, emulating West Ham in Conference. 

 

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Leverkusen 2 - 4 Qarabag!

Great goal by Juninho, a late bloomer! Game over, I reckon. Park the bus with those 10 men, Q'bag.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Maccabi Tel-Aviv 5 - 5 Olympiakos

The Greeks have fought back!

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Ajax down to 10 men, game over.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Leverkusen goal, Q'bag should have tightened up and gave no space or chances. Naive.

[GAME OF BILLIONS]

Leverkusen 5 - 4 Qarabag

Oh man! Fucking Hell. Naive tactics from Q'bag.

Nice to see the Scallies get humped by Atalanta at home last night. "World Class Defender" Van Dijk getting dragged about like a rag doll was pure bliss to observe. 😄

PAOK still in with a fighting chance of qualifying for the semi-finals of the ECL.

Prioritise the Premier League.

Makes that Liverpool result seem even more embarrassing.

Knew someone would shit it and I expected it to be Liverpool but Arsenal as well. Mad.

City to dominate from here on in.

Aye, pretty shit tbh. Liverpool looked red hot a couple of months back. I’d blame Ramadan

I've seen it happen so many times before. I knew deep down Liverpool would fold at some point.

Still not done Sky will say... but IMO it is.
