The match is really solid and it just needs goals to make it good. Also that Real Madrid goal that was cancelled by VAR due to offside to me is wierd becuase i think the ball came from Konate that got hit with the ball,so i think Real Madrid should have leaded in this match

It is difficult to assess the shape of the Ukrainian national team now, many players have been without a game for months and this will certainly affect their physical form. It’s not worth talking about the psychological state at all, Scotland in this situation looks like a favorite. If Ukraine can win, it will be a huge feat, and a very big miracle. But to be honest, I don't even know what Ukraine will be capable of in the final part if they manage to beat Scotland.
Having been inactive for a long time, of course, will affect the performance of the Ukrainian players, indeed, Scotland will benefit from qualifying for the world cup in Qatar. but it's true that because their country's condition is not good, it could make the fighting spirit of the Ukrainian players increase rapidly to be able to make their country proud on the football stage. it will be a very tough match. How many players of the Ukrainian team have been inactive? Surely there are quite a few that play in other European top leagues? It is true that all those things will affect Ukraine's performance, but Scotland is no unbeatable opponent either. I think both teams have a fair chance to progress into the final qualification game. Odds for progression are currently at Scotland 1.6 and Ukraine 2.2, so roughly 60-40 in favor of Scotland. For me its realistic that any of this teams wins. Even with Ukraine being in war it shouldnt effect that much the football team maybe it should even give them a boost. If they call players that havent been effected by the war and were playing they should have a good chance |

What I've read from the news reports is that both teams will be almost complete at kick-off. Then we also get the most exciting and fun final that way. The bookmakers think Liverpool is the favourite, but I am leaning more towards Real Madrid. They also won their last game against Liverpool in the previous final, that will still be in the minds of the Liverpool and Real players and may also be the deciding factor.
Liverpool will try to revenge for the last final and for this they will play attacking football, I think. On the other hand, Real Madrid is always good in the UCL and they are strong opponent for Liverpool. Both teams are strong and have ability to change the game result anytime. Can't wait to watch a high voltage final match between Liverpool and Real Madrid. Liverpool have no choice than to win the Champions League, it is a revenge indeed for Liverpool. Liverpool is a good team and they deserve to win the Champions League. The game won't be easy for the both teams , I don't think Liverpool will give Real Madrid to win them again this time around. On the other hand, Real Madrid will also surprise you in this match. We will obviously be presented with 2 big clubs that will definitely perform optimally. What have we each prepared for this final? moments where each favorite club is ready with the ideal squad. Liverpool and Real Madrid return to form after Liverpool past defeats will surely make it a place to break the curse. Liverpool has more motiv and to win to get their revenge against Real Madrid for what happened a few years ago. Also their motiv after the loss of the premier league title gives them a little more boost to want the champions league title even more then normal. |

Everton is nice and all, but they are not out of the gate yet. Lampard didn't show amazing glimpses of success yet. I do not really have that much trust in them to think that they will be any good next season. I am guessing that they will be fighting for relegation again. Being a bottom 5 team is a very dangerous thing and it is quite stressful as well. I think Everton has a great squad and they had a rough season but I think it's gonna change next season. For most of the part in mid season, Calvert-Lewin was injured, Richarlison was also and that kinda dragged them down. They need some backups so maybe recall Moise Kean? and get some few players in loan again. It's gonna be some tough decisions to bolster the squad and ready for the season again. If they are not hit by injuries again then I am sure they will perform better than the 16th position. I think some players need too leave and get sold so they can have a budget and get some players that will actully make a difference. They have top quality players but just dont go with each other and that was Evertons problem this season in the premier league. |

Intresting fact regarding next season in the championship is that Norwich have already sold their maximum amount of season tickets around 21000 tickets. This is really an insane amount for a team that just got relegated a few days ago and they probobly believe that they will be back again in the premier league next season

Currently with how the market is going down i dont really know what would be smart to invest in. I think this trend of going down will continue at least for a couple of months more. Its really sad too see my money just going down and down each day.

all the easy 3:0 today, except for Isner, that is out 2:3
one is currently not expected, and that is Norrie to be out by Khachanov, currently really close to happen, 0:2 in sets, 2:4 in third set
Alcaraz is on track, with 1:0 in sets, but struggle in second set, could be another longer match for him in the end
Really unexpected loss from John Isner today maybe he was just tired but he cannot lose to such weak ranked players at this high level tournament. Also Norrie playing really bad and is close to getting knocked out. Djokovic and Nadal just destroying their opponents 1 by 1 |

Still not change on position standing Bundesliga next season with Bayern Munich, Dortmund, Leipzig and Bayern Leverkusen keep as dominance for finish on top standing place. I think if have any new club promoting with lower budget keep exist on Bundesliga is great achievement without drop back to Bundesliga 2. Right now experience and historical team not really important except with how most active on window transfer opening and get new player, if can't get any new player maybe keep stay on Bundesliga is good priority.
I think that the main stagnation in the Bundesliga is connected with the first place - Bayern has dominated for many years in a row and does not give the championship to anyone. As for the top four, things are obviously better here - Leipzig is historically a new club and its presence in the top four is a strictly positive development if we're worried about any diversity of results. The Leipzig team is pretty good. But I don't think they will compete with Bayern Munich for the title. Bayern Munich is still a very strong team. And they are very strong financially. If Bundesliga clubs add star players to their squads. And if other clubs can spend money like Bayern Munich, Then I think club line Leipzig or Dortmund will be able to compete with Bayern to win the title. Yes Clubs Leipzig performance should be appreciated.As we can see that Clubs Leipzig is able to rank in the top 4 and if Clubs Liezpig wants to win the title in the bundesliga or compete for the top rankings maybe Clubs Leipzig also needs to make changes to the squad or recruit new players. Based on the statistics of the German League standings,Clubs Leipzig is only one ranking difference from Clubs Dortmund. Clubs Bayer Leverkusen also cannot be underestimated,because they are able to stay in 3rd place and are superior to Clubs Liezpig. Clubs like Leipzig are here too just make money and not win titles as far as i have seen it. They arent like Bayern Munich that is focused only on titles. I think Leipzig dosent have that mentality to risk it and fight for the title. They were close last years but now mentality to win all games |

The warriors have already advanced to the NBA Finals. They are now in waiting mode for the winner of the Celtics vs Heat series.
Not sure if they will still be listed as the favorite if the Celtics win tomorrow, but regardless, I believe the Warriors will win.
What I like about the Warriors is they are hungry for this win, they have been here many times before, so now they will try to win again.
That was a great game earlier, although I already figured out who will win today just by looking on their performance on the 1st half. Klay Thompson was hard to defend as he can always do his thing anywhere in their homecourt, he scored 32 points (48.0 FG%). I bet the Warriors will still be the favorite on the Finals even if the Celtics will close Eastern conference tomorrow against the Heat. The Warriors are much more healthy than the Celtics and they have a lot of key players too, even the bench players can do some job for the team. Right, Warriors has better standings on the regular season compared to Celtics and also they dominate all the teams they fight on there playoffs run while Celtics barely win against Bucks and possibly Heat if they have no injury issue. Warriors bench is much effective than Celtics and also Celtics play is always center to Tatum which is very easy to counter by the warriors with an overall shooter players. How about Jaylen Brown? Do you think he cannot lead the team? There are times when Tatum struggled and Brown came to the rescue, this team is not only all about Jason Tatum although I believe that he is the best player in the team, just like Curry, take Curry out and for sure the Warriors are not the same team anymore. Yes Brown is to lead too but Tatum usually has the play same with Mavericks and Nuggets that focus on Doncic and Jokic despite they have other support players too that step up when the main star is not performing well. I just want to emphasize the balance of GSW players since all of them can step up and cover Curry in case his game is not good. There's a lot of player to choose like Thompson, Poole, Green and Wiggins which can lead the team if needed. I agree boston celtics has the best defence in the league but i just think they wont be able to cover all of their top players on the field and warriors already know how to play against those strategies and create chances to score easy buckets. So it will be intresting |

 The current NBA champion betting odds. I still believe that the eastern conference winner will take home the Larry O'Brien Trophy. Unless there are major changes like game suspensions and injuries barring vital players from competing. I am actually more concerned if Jimmy Butler's previous poor performance was due to his knee getting worse. At least Boston Celtics duo are still in their mid 20s and are healthy. Marcus Smart might is questionable though. Maybe they will rest him since Boston already beat Miami without him. Marcus Smart will be key in shutting down GSW's superb offense. If Boston ends the eastern finals in game 6, they will be expected to become favorite to win the finals. Boston has a bigger roster of players that can score and have a lot more good shooters other then Tatum so this is a huge advantage for them. Miami cannot play without a good Jimmy Butler on the floor and that was seen in the previous games. So expecting Celtics in the final |

So, Eredivisie 21/21 season come to the end today. There was enough surprises in final round. Ajax only in last minutes managed to achieve 2:2 draw with Vitesse. Walwiijk quite unexpected won against AZ away. Feyenoord at home lost to Twente 1:2.
If we already knew exact positions of top 4 teams, now we also know which teams will fight in playoffs for spot UEFA Conference League qualifiers. It's AZ, Vitesse, Utrecht and Herenveen.
The match between vitesse and az Alkmaar was quite disappointing on the part of AZ. I was expecting that they will put in a good fight but all pointed to vitesse. Even if there is the possibility of coming back and turning the game around in the second leg, but then they lost the opportunity to get in the lead in the first leg. I think they are evenly matches but Vitesse at home is a team that plays a lot better so im not surprised in this result at all. Also expecting AZ to win in next match for sure and maybe take this match into overtime or penalties to decide the winner |

Just checking in to say I got my prize (w00tw00t) so thanks again Captain!
Yeah, just sent out all the payments to those who sent me their address. I will speak to jeremypwr about sponsorship for the next pool before I officially announce the sign-up thread so we know what sort of prizes we are playing for. Hopefully we can get 50+ users this year and a bigger sponsorship pot to entice others in. I will also be doing a World Cup pool but that will be nearer the time as it doesn't start till November. I'll update everyone in here when they sign up pools go live in Games & Rounds. Thanks for the prizes sir. Im a little dissapointed that they were so low expected at least like it was stated on the first post. Hopefully next year we get more users to join the pool plus the increased prizes. Also would be nice to know next season what are the prizes |

I think Golden State will finish this series so they can finally move on to the finals and that is looking like it will be the Celtics the way the Heat played in their last game.
I agree. It probably should have been Warriors vs Bucks, but the Middleton injury. I would’ve rather seen Warriors vs 76ers also, but the Embiid injury… That Boston team is a good one though and they’ve been through a lot together, so I’m not mad about it. I do think the Warriors will end up on top though, further cementing the legacy of that squad. Yeah, the Warriors and Celtics will most likely face each other in the final series. Honestly, I would like to see the Heat in the final, but they are clearly not playing like champions, especially during the last couple of games. By the way, many other teams also had great potential to reach the final series, but the championship will be won by the least injured team as injuries are always the deciding factor in winning. I dont see Miami heat at all in the finals due to how bad they are playing against Boston. If Jimmy Butler dosent score or plays well o most for sure is that they will lose. Honestly i would like to see the final between Warriors and Celtics it will be intresting |

I see that Auxerre and St Etienne are having a great rivalry against each other for the Ligue 1. Auxerre managed to save the draw by the goal came in the last minutes. The game wasn't one sided actually too. Hence, the rematch can be very exciting as well. I feel like St Etienne are going to make it. They will win the rematch and stay in the Ligue 1. Maybe they didn't have a good season this year but I still think that they are strong enough to move Auxerre out of their way.
Its really sad that St.Etienne didnt win this match they had a lead and should have won. Its honestly a great shame if a club with such a name gets relegated. They have the most trophies in history and i think they can save themselfs at home in the next match |

AC Milan and Ibrahimovic have the title! And now comes Ibra with his injury. He had massive problems. For the last six months he had pain in his left knee. Half a year of pain and bad sleep. He trained very little and played only minutes not hours. But he has one target and now he can laugh about it.
Rumors currently circulating that Ibrahimovic is rumored to be retiring in the near future due to the injury he suffered. even though ibrahimovic is quite important for AC Milan this season because he is able to bring enthusiasm to other players on the field. but the current reality is that ibrahimovic has to be out for six months. Of course, AC Milan had to look for other stickers to replace Ibrahimovic. He is currently really old for football and shouldnt be playing at all. Now with this injury i think he will retire for sure but with how his fighting spirit goes i wouldnt be surprised if he tries again once he recovers but it will take a miracle to get back into form honestly at that age |

Medvedev also made a nice against a really good player on clay Laslo Djere. I think the advantage of Medvedev was that Djere had a leg injury as far as i seen. Medvedev playing much better on clay then usual. How far can he go that is the real question

I don't want to act as one of the Liverpool fans in this forum but it is clear Liverpool is winning this championship and there are no two ways about that, real Madrid has been a good opposition but be quite sure that Liverpool has all it takes t walk away with the cup the season.
I agree with u Liverpool is lifting this particular UCL no matter what, I know Real Madrid is also a stronger and skillful team.Liverpool lost their last Champions league final match with this same team so I dont think Liverpool will like to loose against them again this time around, i know it gonna be a tougher match but Liverpool will still lift the cup. I also think that Liverpool will win the champions league but with Real Madrid you just cannot never know. They already made a few big comebacks in the knockout faze amd that was just insane i wouldnt be surprised if they win in the final |

oi, where's everyone else? secretly celebrating City's title or what?  well, only winner today is the city of Manchester. Brighton helped Man United stay in the europa league and Man City are the champions, pure ecstasy in manchester tonight Gerrard's trending worldwide on twitter right now *sigh* Good performance from Aston Villa, but as soon as City scored the first goal, we all knew what was going to happen. Nice to see Spurs are gonna play Champions League football, tbh i'd rather watch Sonaldo and Kane in the CL than Smith-rowe and Martinelli, great workd from Conte Superbru is Superoverloaded right now, will comeback later tonight or tomorrow to congratulate our new EPL pool winner 👍 As far as i see they have updated the results. A little laggy still when you try to get into the app but they have updated. CasperBGD is first. Tomahawk you are 7th and im 8th so this closes up the pool. Happy with the top 10 position and waiting for the rewards. Also what are the total rewards for each position and when will we receive them? |
