All traditions are a novelty at first. Feel like the climax to the new CL group stage might be one of those that becomes A Thing, like transfer deadline day or FA Cup 3rd round weekend. 18 games, all at once, all contingent on each other. It's...fun. www.nytimes.com/athletic/609...

Enzo Fernandez was brilliant against Leicester, but it’s not just his quality on the ball, the goal, the assist, or even the off ball work he did… It’s the intelligence

Think @blayasensat.bsky.social said it, but Barca lose a lot when Raphinha has to create rather than run. It’s not that he’s a bad creator, I really like the directness of his passing. But there’s nobody else replicating those runs.

🇪🇸 🏆 ⚽️ FT: #Celta 2-2 #Barcelona A wild match ends in a draw! #Barça squander a two-goal lead in a disappointing performance, missing #LamineYamal’s spark once again. 😕 #RealMadrid now have two games in hand and a chance to close the gap at the top to four points. 🔥

Rodri may be the most pivot-al player in the world, but this isn’t all him. A lot of it was simmering last year — but they just kept hitting bangers. They had 26 goals from 18+ yards out, 16 more than Arsenal, and they were often of the “bailout” variety

1) "Sportsball!!" people are weirdos. Not for disliking sports, but for making it a personality trait 2) Sports Twitter coming here is part of what's giving it juice. Not because any of us are more important, but because this type of platform thrives on live reaction, which sports makes a constant

No other club is as cancerous for football and for women's football in general than Real Madrid. Their rep protests La Liga's decision to invest money into women's football. 8-10 million EUR "too much". May they rot in SAD hell soon! www.relevo.com/futbol/liga-...
