Kevin Phillips and Niall Quinn combo there.
"Zlatan - that bicycle kick you scored against England was class. Best one touch goal I ever saw!"

 

[Cormcolash]

And the best bunch of wankers to do it against too

UEFA Cup Final:
Spurs 1-0 Man Utd
Crap match. Funnily enough for an Ange team Spurs defended well

 

[Cormcolash]

One of the Spurs centre backs had a great game, dunno his name mind. Keeper did well too aside from that one ball he dropped that almost resulted in a goal.

Most important moment was Van der Ven's amazing clearance off the line after keeper completely fecked up punching the ball. Cristian Romero's battle with Maguire in last quarter when Man Utd got desperate was funny as fuck. He totally got in Maguire's head and Romero made sure he stayed down for ages after Maguire got booked.

After all his brilliance Son finally won something despite being a shadow of himself this season.

Total coincidence I found out this this morning.

Vote for Gary Lineker for TV presenter of the year in National TV Awards (whatever that is).

Lineker is in the 6th category.
The amount of total garbage TV in this is staggering.

I watched the match in a fairly neutral London pub. Just before full-time, a (grown man) Spurs fan stood beside me and whipped out his phone to start filming his reaction video.

He started off filming the tv, then himself talking about "this is it...we're going to do it...", then he started running around the pub shrieking and fell to his knees in front of the tv shouting "I can't believe it! We've won the Europa League!" - all the time filming himself.

I know reaction videos are a thing but this was my first (and hopefully last) time ever seeing it in person.

That sounds horrific.

I watched it with two ManU fans, one Spurs, one Liverpool and one neutral, and me.

All very congenial and nice. No bullshit or nonsense. Wouldn't want to watch a game like that any other way.

Aaaaand:

Napoli 2-0 Cagliari after an hour.
McTominay (42) scored a scissors kick and Lukaku (50) a solo effort.
Crowd going nuts.

Inter are 1-0 v Como whose keeper Pepe Reina (42 y.o) was sent off in final match of career.

Watching the women's champions league game on a moody Swiss feed.
Swiss ads are amazing. The game has been rubbish thus far.

Arsenal 1-0 Barca. I fell asleep during the first half - Arsenal scored and when I woke up it was disallowed. Nah - I just was tired.
Arsenal defended well and Barca never really showed up.
Katie McCabe inevitably swore during her interview afterwards.
The players from both teams were cool afterwards they were were watching out for each other. The pundits really excited and Ian Wright also on pitch in tears - he didn't cry when the Palace won last week.
Delighted for McCabe - and a friend of mine who went out to the match.
The Arsenal manager is a young wan. They sacked the Swedish lad.

 

[Cormcolash]

Disappointing, McCabe is a dickhead!

Feckin' English teams!
Hahahahahahaha - you once memorably described McCabe as a ''HEADMELTER''. 110% correct.
Barca were really poor. The pundits were really excited and only when Ian Wright came over near the end of the TNT broadcast did we get any proper analysis.

I forgot the Celtic match was on. Sheffield Utd also threw it away. I missed beginning of women's match to watch end of that.
