funny thing y'all might enjoy: I have to memorise a map of the Mediterranean for a quiz for my course on the Roman Republic, and one of my mnenomics for a city (Alesia) is the existence of Alessia Russo lmfao

Just realised this, but the new WCQ for CONMEBOL is so stupidly useless. 6/10 teams qualify directly and 1 more goes to playoffs. Why take most games seriously besides traditional rivalries?

Then again, Chile is shitting the bed so hard that even Venezuela beat them 3-0 today...

I always love the CannonStats KPIs, great way to balance out the eye and vibe test. My personal take is that we've performed exactly as the stats would indicate, Sp*rs have vastly overperformed, and City and Liverpool have slightly underperformed.

Paris is almost there for a win against Wolfsburg to knock them out of the UWCL as well. What the fuck are they feeding them down there

And it's happened. The finalists last year didn't even make it to the UWCL proper.

Wolfsburg and Man U tears :) Especially Man U cuz who tf their manager think they are, you're a 5 year old club built on a sense of pride and accomplishment
