Aston Villa get Ajax in the conference.
This post shows that Norwegian fans haven't improved and are still small minded. They weren't robbed of a penalty and the two yellows were correct and you also didn't mention that Ajax' red card was a very light one.Yesterday at least shows how much Norwegian football has improved. Bodø/Glimt should have beaten Ajax by 6-7-8 goals over 2 legs. Yesterday they were robbed of a penalty, got a player wrongly sent off, hit the woodwork 3 times, had a player channelling his inner Torres and missing an open goal after rounding the goalkeeper - and Ajax cleared the ball off the line 3 times. If there was an XG yesterday - it would probably end as 5.0 for BG and 0.2 for Ajax - and Ajax won 2-1
And then Molde went to Poland and destroyed Legia with 3-0. At home they also went 3-0 up after 25 minutes, but in that game Legia fought back to 2-3. So 6-2 on aggregate. Add to that - Brann last season first beat a team from Portugal before going out on penalties to AZ

Probably German bias, but it feels more like "who stops Leverkusen from winning a treble". Hope those two teams play the final, should be awesome.Europa league a case of who plays and loses to Liverpool in the final.
Norway is the new Netherlands. And we're the new, well, judging by last night, still NetherlandsThis post shows that Norwegian fans haven't improved and are still small minded.

https://kassiesa.net/uefa/data/method5/ccoef2024.htmlAnyone have an overview of how the coefficient thingy is developing with regards to which countries get extra spots in CL next year. Think Italy and Germany used to be above England, but very little between the three.
Wondering if WH/Freiburg and Brighton/Roma might be decisive for that coefficient?
Aston Villa get Ajax in the conference.
Tricky? Have you seen Ajax this season?Thats a tricky tie for Villa this stage in the Conference but they should do it. We need most of these EPL clubs (except Liverpool) to get good results as we will need that 5th place to be CL this season.
Been traveling so haven't seen the game but italian radio commentary made it seem like Atalanta should be winning 35-3 or somethingWatching the sporting and Atalanta game. Sporting with a beautiful team goal. They play out so well. Amorim is gonna be eyed up in the summer. Highly rated coach.
The hit the post a few times. Sporting started of the better team but dropped of when they went in front. Doesn’t make me change my opinion of there manager though.Been traveling so haven't seen the game but italian radio commentary made it seem like Atalanta should be winning 35-3 or something
Atalanta was superior no doubt. I'm happy with the result. We are suffering with injuries to crucial players like our goalkeeper Adan, our best defender Inácio and our best creative midfielder Pote. The players are visibly tired since we have been playing from 3 to 3 days and our squad is short. I think our manager is prioritizing the league and domestic cups, that's why he benched Gyokeres and Hjulmand. I agree with his decision. Atalanta is favorite since they appear fresher, will decide at home and our manager will rotate the team again. Doubt we will play at full strength. I prefer we focus in our league since I don't think we are strong enough to do a real run at the cup.Yes Atalanta much superior than Sporting today, they did hit three posts and overall created more chances but just couldn't finish.
SCP should be good enough to give troubles to Atalanta in the next game anyway so the tie is still quite even.
Weren't some Roma fans involved in some similar stuff a few years ago in a European Cup situation? Correct me if I'm wrong.Two Brighton fans robbed and stabbed in Rome in the build up to the Roma game.

This was a mugging, not fans violence thoughWeren't some Roma fans involved in some similar stuff a few years ago in a European Cup situation? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Not watching what type of luck did they get today? two leg tie over after after 25 minutes.Liverpool's luck...
