Leipzig lead the Bundesliga, but Spurs fans are pretty relieved.

Madrid-City is going to be epic.

Well Man City better make this year count because they won't be playing CL football for the next 2 years.

Very few teams that I would cheer for Real to beat.

City is definitely at the top of the list.

Euro 2020 will be affected. What bad luck to have the tournament in multiple locations in a year like this.
Could see Champions League affected, maybe even the entire European clay court tennis swing cancelled.

I guess Mourinho's strategy was to have his players play cynically and hoof the ball up to the left corner where nothing happens... again, and again, and again.

And then, why bother making subs to bring on fresh legs when you can make some sort of petulant point at the expense of your players.

Jesus - what a shitty hire.

Away goals in overtime is dumb. Actually overtime in two legged ties is dumb. Just go to penalties after 180 minutes.

As Roger Bennett said this week, Jose is already in year 3 excuse mode. Not a good sign.

Spurs got "Concentrated Mourinho" a few good early games with inspired performances from players who were languishing followed by a few lacklustre wins followed by total collapse with players being thrown under the bus.

3 years condensed into 4 months.

Madrid (do people refer to Real Madrid as just Madrid?) on quarantine before a decision is made means they should be forced to forfeit.

Champions League starts back up.
1.) CBS All Access to watch the games..$6/month but 30 day trial...and you get some Startrek spinoffs
2.) US Youth Konrad de la Fuente made the game day roster for Barca tomorrow v. Napoli (9 Barca B-players called up because Barca has all kinds of roster turmoil right now). In the roster depth chart he is behind Messi, Griezmann, Suarez and Ansu. Did a great job in the 3rd division playoff and has been training with the first team
3.) Some interesting 2nd round games before we enter the 1 game knockout mini-tournament.
