We obv weren't watching the same match. At no point in the entire match did the U23 team show anything close to putting together a chance, much less having a shot to tie it late. Not to mention a tie does them no good, they had to win the match to advance at that point.

Ref was awful, but Colombia could've been on ten men and would've still won.

West Ham vs Arsenal right now is probably game of the year for me. End to end entertainment.

Major controversy in the Atletico - Barca game... Should be going into extra time, but instead of a penalty and second yellow for Gabi, the referee spotted the ball just outside the box. 3-2 Atletico

it was awesome. also very good for england. The longer City and Liverpool stay in Europe the more they will lock up 4 slots for champions league. Italy is out. So every point is big.

Does the 4th spot become guaranteed instead of a playoff?

no 4th is always playoff. but only the top 3 leagues in europe get 4, the next level gets 3. england is 3rd, italy is 4th. after next year they were virtually tied. but italy flamed out this year so the more points that city and liverpool get, the more buffer they have to keep having 4 teams.

Leicester are going crazy right now. WBA just got an equalizer vs Tottenham in the 74th minute.

The Martial goal this weekend was absolutely terrific, I lost it.

Leicester proved me wrong, I just happened to be fixing the spelling since I saw it. I pegged the Foxes to finish 3rd when they were leading at the International break but they avoided injuries and fatigue better than I expected. No European games was probably big for them as well

Isn't this one of the most unexpected, greatest runs in the history of any sport?

Or at least that's kind of what I remember reading a little about

For context.. Browns are 200/1 to win the Super Bowl.
