Thursday Night Lights: The 2014/15 Europa League thread

well that's one of the weirder penalty saves I've seen

Could tell from the run up he was not going to score.

It’s a shame. Frankfurt were the better team for most of the match. Some good last ditch defending from Chelsea though.

kepa redemption narrative or something

there was quite a collection of tics, stutters, etc, in that shootout

The Jorginho hop was pretty good.

yeah it's effective too

so it's an all-england final in both huh

the defence is just not to move and rely on your reflexes though (which Ederson did in the Carabao Cup final)

This is pretty appalling and I’m surprised something couldn’t have been worked out,

yep, disgraceful for UEFA

Though it does look like the Azeri government had assured him he’d have no travel issues and that a security plan was in place, so I’m not sure what more they could have done, really. It looks like it was a personal decision from Mkhitaryan in the end.

I heard they had made assurances it wld be fine but it was clearly p vague. azerbaijan probably shouldn't be holding the final, UEFA probably shouldn't exist etc.

Tempers fraying in the Chelsea camp? 😡

Not even bothering to use VAR when it's available for a penalty shout seems weird.

Arsenal playing p well so Chelsea will probably score soon.

this is shite

Just feels like the ‘final’ of a made up pre season tournament

Feels like the season was so so long ago to me. I feel weirdly emotionally removed from the upcoming champs lge final as well.

great advert for English football

Although if LFC lose that will change p sharpish.

There it is.

Giroud hedging his bets with the celebration there

And there's the clincher

Lol falling apart now

great advert for English football

tbf there was only one English footballer on the pitch

not was is. I hate Chelsea with a passion but Arsenal falling flat on their faces is never not funny.

And he just gave a penalty away

That was sweet from iwobi though

Beautiful beautiful

Nice goal. I love Hazard, so happy he's leaving this odious club

I've had like the hardest week. Emery out.

Good hustle from Ozil there

Can't they cancel this final now, it should never have happened in the first place ;-)

Just so fucked off, can't we nationalise this fucking club already.

which club?
