What a squad
vini copping some horrific vilification from racists.
Juve docked 10 points just before kickoff today
It has totally shook me to my core. Not only am I a Madridista but have close personal ties to Valencia. Horrific, calculated, racist abuse beyond belief. I have spent today in a daze wondering if I know folks in the crowd who did this, or worse, who are related to my extended family.
There is literally just one way to stop it. Starve these racist arseholes of the one thing they care about. Their team. Their sport. Ban ALL supporters for a few games and dock their team some points. If anyone sat silently while an entire section made monkey noises and loudly called Vini a monkey then they ARE all complicit.
This is a disaster for La Liga that has been years in the making. Good on Vini for saying “no more”.
players leaving countries with known racist proclivities to other nations, will see government bodies stamp down on it.
ie all the players of colour leaving spain for england, for example, will see drastic social change.
The issue in Spain sadly is that folks don’t even consider stuff like this racist. They think they are just winding the player up. It is shocking ignorance at a societal level.
they’ll start to believe if people get arrested, and clubs have to play behind closed doors due to racism incidents from club sanctioned ultra groups
Bein Sports gone soon from Foxtel/kayo.
■■■■■■■■
Where will it end up, Stan or another streaming platform?
It’s bullshit that Foxtel just removes content and doesn’t compensate it’s users!
BeIn will still have their own app you can watch it on. Also on Fetch TV still.
La Liga has gone to Optus and both Optus and Paramount+ will be on Foxtel
You have to pay extra though, don’t you?
Yes
Everything just goes around in circles, still remember Optus Vision getting the Fox Sports channels in the early 00’s
I don’t anticipate him staying in Spain much longer
Alll time bottle job from Dortmund
Lens RC have secured a CL spot by confirming 2nd place in Ligue 1 behind PSG with a round to go. Fair effort from a club in League 2 three years ago and with a (relatively) small budget. The mercurial Brice Samba has had quite the ride in goal over the last two seasons.
Sevilla win the Europa League over Roma on pens after it was locked at 1-1 AET.
Bad night for Mancini with an OG to give Sevilla the equaliser and then missed a pen.
Sevilla prevailed 4-1 in the shootout with some pretty ordinary Roma pens.
Montiel with the winning pen just as he did in the WC Final.
