Anderlecht scoring would still send them out, though ...lucky for me several decades of supporting Spurs, and that late night Dead Space session on Tuesday, means I don't get so nervous I need a urinal installed near my computer
Apoel have been getting stronger and stronger over the last 10 years they had a good CL run a couple of years back.
Lovely piece of skill by Ziyech, but it comes to nothing, unfortunately. Little flick, nutmegs his man, then shoots wide. Reminds me a bit of Taarabt, but with a better attitude.
Olympiakos, Apoel, Besiktas, Roma, Anderlecht and Ajax all through in the early games. Nobody's gone to extra-time, though a couple of sides were very close.
The Daily Mail are claiming that Leicester have sacked Ranieri. That's disgraceful, if true. He earned a chance to keep them up, at least.
Won the title with a combination of anti-football and refs turning a blind eye to their fouls and diving - CHECK Followed up winning the title by being utterly pathetic in the league - CHECK Sacked their manager within nine months of winning the title - CHECK Not606 board modded by a ****ehawk who starts **** on other boards - CHECK Wear blue - CHECK ...oh, wait, maybe they are Chelsea.
So much for the "unwavering support" then. Who do they think can do better with these players than the manager who had them so massively overperforming that they won the league?
In 100 years time, Ranieri will be still be remembered as the only Leicester manager to win the league
He'll also be known as the reason so much landfill space was taken up with those quickly rushed-off "Leicester Fairytale" books that have been clogging up shelf space at Waterstones...
