lol - Hey, if Haaland plays, he's worth the price of admission. But yeah, this Chelsea team is lacking some star power.

Leicester is in an automatic promotion spot back to the Premier League at the moment, but they are in big trouble regarding FFP. Southampton are pretty much guaranteed a playoff spot in the Championship, but they certainly control their own destiny with games against teams they are chasing (albeit all 3 games against Leicester, Leeds, and Ipswich Town are away fixtures).

Real Madrid - Man City game was chock full of golazos.

I’m sorry but this is fucking crazy. How the hell can a ref legit say “ahh you know just a brain fart”? This is the fucking champions league that penalty could be worth a hundred million euros.

Just in case people don't want to click on BBB's tweet above, the rest of the tweet is the following:

“What makes us really angry is the explanation on the pitch. He told our players it was a 'kid's mistake' and he won't give a penalty for that in a Champions League quarterfinal. It's a horrible, horrible explanation. Kid's mistake, adult's mistake, whatever - we feel angry because it was a huge decision against us”.
