It was "fun" while it lasted - Europa League 2019-20

pen looked more than a bit soft but i'm saying heck yes just to give my jittering heart a breather

Some run that

Terrible pen.

Awful!

It’s the kind you know the player is going to miss because of their stupid run-up.

Nani (yes, *that* Nani) missed one like that for Orlando City just a few weeks ago, then he did it again and we all wanted to murder him.

i hate this. I've seen like 20% of the match cos of training, though I did see the trip in the box and the missed PK.

going to try and see more of the second half when my class is doing assignments (thank the Lord).

Raul put the pen exactly where he put the Olympiakos one so that was poor but we've played that half well otherwise

Goalkeeper had done his homework.

Wide open match, good performance from Wolves bar that miss, nervy as fuck

beautiful run by Adama up to that point too, but i pretty much knew he was going to get mugged. for that reason - easier for a GK to block a Pen then stop Traore from a sure goal like that.

Interesting half. Sevilla absolutely dominant without looking very threatening, Wolves potentially capable of scoring on the break at any point.

I hear the dominant thing but I think we've threatened more, as I say penalty aside I'd take that performance

All the hallmarks of a late 2-0 win to Sevilla. Sorry lads

Jiménez should have overhit his penalty as much as he has every pass so far

Not sure where a Sevilla goal is going to come from, tbh. it’s not dissimilar to watching Spurs.

Shakhtar look pretty safe in the other match.

Assumption these days is ‘a penalty’

Definitely just sucking it up now

I'd've subbed Saiss instead and dropped Donk to centre half but that was coming

4-0 Shakhtar. The semi vs Inter should be a blast.

O no.

Welp

The rare player taken out after the shot penalty

Bruno is stupidly good from the spot though

He’s the only person who should be allowed to do the silly run-up.

Bizarre from Williams there

anything Sevilla can do

that skill from pogba at the end there

Rashford has largely been terrible post-lockdown

It's killing us

ref is a cunt

Dreadful defending from United

Lindelof just like "nah"

Ole is such a chickenshit. Should have brought Ighalo on for Rashford at half-time - gives him three minutes of injury time

Hope we're making some signings!

Pyatov’s kicking is terrible.

Inter look very comfortable.

5-0 Inter. Shakhtar have been shocking.

managed to miss this from conte earlier in the season

Antonio Conte, sharing with L’Equipe the advice that he gives his players about how to approach their sex lives. “In periods of competition, it should not last long: you need to put in the minimum effort possible, so it’s best if their partner is on top. It’s preferable to do it with your own wife, that way you are not obliged to put in an exceptional performance.”

^ thread title still on point

How is Diego Carlos still playing? Three penalties in three consecutive matches and should have been off.

All unbelievably stupid.

This is great. 2-1 Sevilla, Conte has a yellow card, everyone’s trying to get everyone else sent off.

2-2!

Fair play to Lukakau. He doesn't usually score when the chips are down

Darude’s going to get some decent royalties from Spurs tonight but I don’t think any of the goals will match this one.

Rijeka's goal at Copenhagen tonight is the new best goal of all time. More enjoyable every time you watch it. (📷 via @CRO_Scout)pic.twitter.com/IPt1dFM6On

lmao

haha

Lovely worked goal from Spurs there

Bale and Doherty seem to be on roughly the same wavelength, which is promising.

Nobody on the same wavelength so far tonight.

That goal was some dire defending, no-one even close

Celtic somehow beating an on-form Lille 2-0 away from home despite being chronic generally and historically shit away from home in Europe
