Internazionale have been eliminated by a team outside of Europe’s big five leagues (England, Spain, Germany, Italy & France)in the Champions League for the first time, with Feyenoord the last such team to knock them out of a major European Competition (in the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup in 2001-02).

Bodø/Glimt are the first team from outside of Europe’s big five leagues to win four consecutive games in a European Cup/Champions League campaign against opponents from those leagues (England, Spain, Germany, Italy & France) since Ajax in 1971-72, who won the European Cup that season.

Here comes VAR…..to fuck it up….he ducked his head and an accidental knock.

But no it’s a pen and a 2nd yellow.

Moronic by the goalkeeper

100% a penalty. If that isn’t dangerous play then I don’t know what is…

Benfica have done a remarkable job over the course of the last few weeks of taking me from someone who celebrated like hell their heroics in the group stage to now begrudgingly hoping they get their pants pulled down today

Gala trying to get knocked out to a 10 man Juve.

Well, well, well, Juve drew level in aggregate scores.

Astonishing performance from Juve, but this one will really, really hurt if they lose it now.

Gala just scored

Through the 5-hole, Osimhen gave the Juve keeper a much better chance to save than he should have.

I just switched on my stream to watch Juve vs Gala…and immediately Gala scored. Juve’s supporters must be cursing me (albeit my stream is a couple of minutes late from reality). :rofl:

That was some save by the Gala’s keeper. I thought that was going to be a Juve goal.
