            • My lord... anyone see the AZ v. Sporting game today? Sporting won 2-1 at Portugal, and today was the second leg. AZ were up 2-1 at the end of full time, so they went to extra time. In the second period of extra time, with the rain pouring down, AZ scored from a corner. But then... in the final seconds of stoppage time in the 2nd period of extra time, Sporting scores from a corner!

              That made it 3-3 on aggregate, but Sporting had 2 away goals to AZ's 1 and Sporting went on.

              One of the best games I've seen!

              • UEFA what? Premiership who?

                • Speaking of which, if Liverpool doesn't make into in the Top 4 of the EPL, they don't get to come back to the CL (doesn't matter if they win or lose).


                  (FA says only the the top 4 will make it. If Liverpool wins and finishes 5th, they are out of luck for next year.)


                  (UEFA says it won't give England 5 spots if Liverpool win.)

                  • I'll take winning the champions league and finishing 5th. Its in the history book. So you've won it 5 times.

                    We could end up runners up in the CL, get fourth and not win it next year. Nothing in the history book!

                    I still think UEFA will cave in though.....

                      Ah, the deluded fan.

                      Give it up... they won't do it... no way, no how.

                        • If the holders can't finish in the top 4, they don't deserve to get in. Why should they get an automatic pass? Earn it with your performance in your league!

                              Nope. The winners of the World Cup don't get in free anymore. And they shouldn't, neither should the CL winner. If you win the tournament, all that you've earned is the CL championship, not a chance to win it again the next year.

                              In US sports, at least, if you win the championship one year, you don't automatically get to the playoffs the next. You have to earn your spot every year, within the league structure.

                                IIRC, the winner goes straight to the finals week.
