Spurs vs Monaco wednesday. Interesting rematch from a Europa matchup from last year that Spurs won 5-2 in aggregate (4-1, 1-1). Hoping they get off to a similar start in the Champs league.

Is this the thread where we laugh at Barca for losing at home to a team who just got promoted to La Liga this year?

Awful start for Spurs. Down 0-2 in the first 30 min.

Can't lose a home game in group stage. Their group is tough enough. No great teams but no god awful teams which you usually get in the group stage of Champions League.

Dropping points at home in group stage of CL is bad enough but to drop all 3 is almost asking for a death sentence.

Surprised to see Madrid struggle so much at home with Sporting CP. They just scored again. 2 goals extremely late to win 2-1.

Terrible start for Spurs. They dominated the 2nd half but couldn't find the net. Gonna have to really step up now to get out of the group.

Spurs need to find a point in their match vs CSKA. Going to games with no result will be difficult to climb out of.

Spurs got a big win 1-0 with several normal starters sitting out due to injury/rehab. Back in the thick of things.

Is Ronaldo fit?


I guess so. He looked really strong out there.

Benfica in third place thanks to humiliating Napoli loss :L

It's one thing to know that literally half of your team is out with injuries (and we sold our top player in the offseason)...but to see it destroying your championship chances :L

So halfway through group play of champions league, here is how the groups look.

Group A- Arsenal & PSG are clearly on their way to the round of 16.
Group B- Tight group between Napoli, Besiktas, & Benfica. Will come down to the wire
Group C-Barca is through. City should advance but only 1 point up on Monchengladbach. If they don't come out of their next match (home against Barca), things may get interesting.
Group D- Atletico and Bayern will advance.
Group E- Another tight one because Tottenham has dropped the ball big time. 3 points separates the 4 teams. Tottenham can't drop points at home anymore.
Group F- Looking like Real Madrid and Dortmund
Group G- Leicester City is advancing. 2nd place out of this group will come down to Porto and Copenhagen
Group H- Juventus and Sevilla should advance

Sevilla playing at home against Dinamo Zagred on Wednesday. A win here and if Juve win, it will mean that we automatically advance.
