Soooooo many errors.
Yeah that's a great observation.
... which is why you almost have to talk about CL history before/after 1997-98, when multiple teams from the same country were allowed entry.
When Steaua won the European Cup in 1986, the 32 teams included:
— Rabat Ajax (Malta)
— Omonia (Cyprus)
— Shamrock Rovers (Ireland)
— Kuusysi (Finland)
— Lindfield (Northern Ireland)
— ÍA (Iceland)
— Jeunesse Esch (Luxembourg)
The 16 teams in Champions League 1995-96.
Different times.
Second Barça election in a row where Haaland is being used as bait. Even if they're even more unlikely to get him now than five years ago.

Yep! Ikke så ille som man skulle tro.
Anyone aware of a more sensational period of form from a tiny team in the Champions League/European Cup?
Genuinely asking. I can't remember any.
PSG 5 goals from 0.87 xG!
Bodø/Glimt leading Sporting 2–0 at HT, pretty much as expected from a team who just beat City, Atlético and Inter (twice).
Not firing Tudor after this display would be almost as bad a call as it was to hire him.
The two Liverpool-Wolves games — same teams, same locations, three days apart — were a nice little experiment to show just how volatile soccer is from a game to game basis, even when nothing fundamental changes at all.
Another fine piece of charismatic leadership.

I wouldn't even worry about the low output at this point. We know what Arsenal can and can't do, and in a brutally physical season where hardly anyone seems to play well, it may well be enough.
Shots: 7
xG: 0.43
Possession: 40%
Gotta respect Arteta for replying to the 'boring football' criticism with one of the ugliest wins of the season.
Can't recall a more uninspiring managerial entrance than that of Igor Tudor.
Basically getting paid to tell everyone how bad the players are and how hard his job is. Demoralising just to read the quotes.
Bodø/Glimt can obviously (.... !) beat City and Sporting, but this pretty solid from the latter.
Barely dropping points in the league, too.
This Juve v Gala game .... mental!
Skrev en sak om Roman i helgen.

Bodø/Glimt vs Real Madrid please.
Én kamp kan være et mirakel.
Når det skjer tre ganger på rad, blir det noe mer.

Lenge siden jeg har kost meg så mye med en fotballkamp. For en omgang i Madrid.
Analyse av Norges skumle januar.
Mest bekymret for slitasje/skade på Haaland. Håper på overganger for JSL og Wolfe.
Mye som helst skal skje før vinduet stenger.

Tenkte mest på VM her
January seen with Norwegian eyes 🇳🇴
— Haaland 0 goals from open play
— Ødegaard out of form
— Strand Larsen out of lineup
— Møller Wolfe benched
— Ajer injured
— No transfers yet for Bobb, Nyland, Schjelderup
— Senegal win AFCON
— Mbappé 5 goals in 3 starts for Madrid
😅
Ødegaard: Off again before the hour mark.
Haaland: 9 games 0 goals from open play
Glad the World Cup isn't next week 🇳🇴
So many issues at City, been feeling Arsenal have been the best team by far, and yet ..... just 4 points down.
Great goal Estevão. Seen so many players get caught in those situations, but kept up his pace really well.
