Magic Lamps

More like 5 now. I know we have always been wasteful for the last couple of years but how many chances do you usually get vs City? Cant remember any team including real madrid creating as many chances vs them and bottling them all.

Nicolas Jackson with his usual masterclass of refusing to score when it appears the easier option. Also he always makes sure to give the goalie a chance by not putting any real power into the finish be it on his left, right or head.

I am not sure. When the CL winner is among the top 5, one place gets pushed down the table but I am quite sure the same would not happen if the EL winner also came from that country. But if Roma or Atalanta finish 6th or worse and win EL, then yes, there will be 6 Italian teams in CL

The thing is even in the unlikely case we beat them by some lucky charm I could never celebrate cos we are guaranteed to lose the final.

Apparently they do. The yellow does not carry over to the shoot out

As predicted villa the only English team left and 5cl spots gone for PL

Bowen is totally off it. 2 clear chances fluffed

The ref is giving wham a hard time. Couple of clear fouls not given while Zouma gets told off for every shove

Kudus is really lively. Finds a way even in tight spaces and even tracks back

EMI Martinez the hero once more. Weird shoot out with him almost being sent off apparently. Best goalie in the world atm. Funny thing how he already looked this good when he started for Arsenal after the pandemic but they still sold him. Advocated us buying him back then

Leverkusen look a bit hungover from their meisterparty but I doubt wham can sustain this pace. They will tire and kusen will score

Yeah ridiculous selection. the only other European team who will be this much out of their depth at the CWC will be us lol

No, EPL is out of the running unless both liverpool and westham turn it around tmrw. If Dortmund go out and Leverkusen win EL, both of which is likely, BL will retain 5 spots and PL will stay at four. The other spot is gonna be allocated into another contingent and go to some dreg league winner.

Real and PSG both will have the 2nd leg at home, minor advantage.

Germany may end up with 6 CL spots. If Bayer Leverkusen win EL and Dortmund win CL, 5th and 6th will qualify for CL.

yeah but against City they would get hammered anyway. Real vs Bayern will be 50-50. Tommy will know exactly what to do. He has outcoached Carlo every time and only stupid errors have seen Real through on one occasion.

advantage bayern

ederson doing the 2012 neuer pen

Kovacic was not a great pen but Silva really was the one who lost this shoot out for them with his lazy ass kick

Lunin truly is no joke on pens.

wow two horrednous misses.

city have themselves to blame here for their likely demise on pens. Real socring with their only real chnance and city with 1 goal from 34 attempts or so. Now they are without their best takers.

thats quite a good quota there for lunin then. will be interesting shootout

No idea how good lunin is on pens but surely not better than ederson.

As predicted Arsenal are out without putting up much of a fight. Never in doubt.
