The new footy thread

this one is pretty near the top of my list
(not ZZ of course, but speaking of great goals)

Bergkamp has a few on his resume that drops the jaw. The feed from De Boer was perfect, too.

First game of mls featured a female fan flipping the bird at jozy altidore and it ends with another

Another successful mls season comes to a close

I am unclear on what happened exactly, but apparently the entire city of Columbus is up in arms over being jobbed by refs.

Must have been some kind of important game for the average local to notice something other than college football.


Edit: That lady is not an average local. Far above average.

HAHA You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The first is 'never get into a land war in Asia' - but only slightly less well known is 'never put a disappointed Ohioan on the jumbo tron!'

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They thought they were watching college football

This might be one of the most dramatic group stage matchdays I can remember:

First-place Wolfsburg vs. second-place Man U, with PSV still in the running for group lead but also risking missing out on Europa league if they lose to CSKA Moscow

Benfica vs. Atletico in Lisbon for first place in Group C

First place in Group D up for grabs, though Juve and City aren't playing each other

Second in Group E totally up for grabs, though Roma control their own destiny and advance if they master BATE

Can Arsenal beat Olympiakos in Athens and complete a remarkable Champions League comeback after being for all intents and purposes fucked after matchday 2?

Porto look for their first ever win in England against a Chelsea who...who knows what the fuck has happened there. Porto enter the day in first, but will be knocked out without beating Chelsea (unless Maccabi Tel Aviv beat Kiev, which won't happen) and their former manager

Gary Neville manages his second game for Valencia after tying Barca(!!!) in his first game on the weekend, needing a win vs. Lyon and for Gent (??!!) to not beat Zenit (who are already through) in order to qualify for the R16

This is gonna be fun!

ManU ties it up only to see the emission cheaters re-take the lead two minutes later.

VW emission cheats 3, ManU 2 (FT)

tremendous stuff at stadio olimpico

Roma draw Bate 0-0 and advance on 6 points

stadium announcer "La Roma agli ottavi di Champions League” > "ROMA HAVE ADVANCED TO THE KNOCKOUT ROUND OF THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE!"

everyone in the stadium starts whistling lol ... home fans not happy with their team



Ma la protesta dei tifosi giallorossi continua. Altri cori, tra cui “C’avete rotto il ca**o” canta tutto lo stadio.

translation: but the fan protest doesnt stop there, other start singing "you guys broke our dicks" (literal vulgar expression translation which effectively means "we're sick of you guys" but in a more forceful way because if someone really did break your dick youd be very angry with them lol
