⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Winners: Eintracht Frankfurt!

[cryptofrka]

A really hurtful defeat for Dinamo yesterday. West Ham had an easy win against Genk, which would have made a good result against Rapid even more important.

The whole performance was below par, I expected Dinamo to be the dominant team which they were not throughout most of the game.

The most important game now is probably Rapid at home, where we will need a much better performance.

One thing I love about europa league is that there's always goal galore, if your analysis is right you can win almost often with over 2.5 goals, Napoli finally gets their first win, a well deserved victory without conceding a goal, 3 nil, a shock result came out from Glimt vs Roma, can't believe that Roma will conceded 6 goals from Glimt, I'm just wondering what excuse Mourinho will have to say to the press, despite playing without no red card

Mourinho fielded a weak team which culminated to being thrashed 6-1 by Bodo/Glimt, I think he underated the Norwagian side thinking that they will not pose a serious threat or challenge to Roma thus by changing the main team giving other hard working players a chance to play unfortunately it backfires, though he admitted that he was responsible for the loss, meanwhile David Moyes side continue to lead their group as they eye a place in the knock out stage by defeating Ghenk 3-0, Moyes had turned the hammers to a very formidable club whose performance in the EPL and Europa league has been very encouraging.

Also, I just found out about a player I didn't even realise ended up at Leicester: 4-goal hero Daka.

It was impressive and I did take a look at his performances then turned out that he was quite impressive for the last two season in Salzburg with total of 59 appearances and 51 goals in Tipico Bundesliga. He hasnt scored in EPL yet so far but I'd say that this player has the potential to be a decent top tier striker in EPL though

Yeah, he does seem a bit confident, apparently said he could be as good as Mane and Salah in the Prem, haha. But actually, he did score already his first goal in EPL, an injury time insurance goal against Man United in his second start for the Foxes!

Time will tell, but I'm happy Vardy's got someone else to share the goal burden with.

After losing points in the first two matches, Napoli Group's top team Legia Warszawa won 3-0. The entire match was controlled by Napoli's players. Napoli scored the first goal in the 76th minute of the match. Napoli made a total of 29 shots, 10 of which were on target. Legia's players, on the other hand, were not able to make any on-target shots. After dominating Serie A, Napoli will now dominate the Europa League too.

It was a really good day for Galatasaray yesterday as they defeated Lokomotiv Moscow by 1-0. It was a late goal but it could really be one of the best goals of the season in the Europa League I think. You can watch the goal from the link below:

And the other match of the group was Lazio - Marseille. It was a really competitive match also and it ended in a draw by 0-0. This helped Galatasaray a lot as they consolidated their lead in the group.

Unfortunately this is football and it's going to be unfair on the coach to say that he fielded a weak team when maybe this was purely based on merit....but the again Mourinho is known for such stunts in trying to punish a few players by not giving then the game time.

though he admitted that he was responsible for the loss, meanwhile David Moyes side continue to lead their group as they eye a place in the knock out stage by defeating Ghenk 3-0, Moyes had turned the hammers to a very formidable club whose performance in the EPL and Europa league has been very encouraging.

Great to hear Moyes making the headlines for the right reasons, I guess coaching a big club like Manchester United was to hard of a task...now his found the perfect team.

Napoli just crushed Legia by 3-0 last night. Napoli dominated the whole match from the start to the end. Legia managed to resist Napoli in the first half. And in the second half, Napoli manager decided to have their biggest players like Osimhen entered the game. And it changed everything about the match. Osimhen scored also and Napoli got a comfortable win. Politano also entered in the second half and got 1 goal, 1 assist. Legia had nothing to do against a powerful game plan like this. They didn't have even any shot on target.

[KTChampions]

The end result is super good for everyone except Spartak fans  7 goals in one match, plus poker, plus a game changer and intrigue until the last minutes 
As for the history, I agree with you, for betting I do not even take into account the results of the last season (since in each season we have actually different teams), I am interested in the short-term indicators of the team. For example, now United looks weak, but with certain changes (for example, replacing a coach), it can become on a level with City and Liverpool in just a couple of months.

Predicting the outcome of a football game through history is never a good idea, to begin with because there are some certain activities that determine the team that will win every single even a weak team can win at some point footing the activities like determination, fitness level of the team, etc which also what make Sheriff club to defeat Man United in the champions league but unfortunately they lost to Villarreal.

I think you confused the Sheriff team with the Young Boys - what you are talking about happened with the Young Boys, and the Sheriff is in a different group. And it seems to me that you are confusing single random results with patterns that can be traced at a distance of more than one or two matches.

One of the things that must have led to Mourinho's team suffering that heavy defeat was the fact that he must have underrated the Norwegian club. And that is what Tottenham Boss also did. Mourinho forgot that Bodo/Glimt is sitting first in the Norwegian Eliteserien league and they have only lost 3 in 22 games this season. And I do not understand why many teams are fielding their B teams, they're not taking this conference league seriously, just like Spurs, who played their fringe players. Again Roma will be playing Serie A league leader Napoli on Sunday so I believe he wanted to rest some first team players and allow his second team to play in the Europa. I think the changes were too much, about 9 changes. I pray he wins against Napoli on Sunday.

It looks like Napoli have yet to dominate the Europa League considering they have only won 1 match out of a total of 3 match they played. So far Napoli have only collected 4 point from the result of 1 win, 1 draw and 1 loss so they finished second in Group C. They still have 3 more match to play in this group stage and I think Napoli can still improve their performance good for leading a group. In that match Napoli struggled to score for 75 minute before finally winning the match with a score of 3-0.

Napoli maximized the goal in the 75th minute and went on to score perfectly even in the first half continued to attack with several shots but still nothing, but with his hard work this could make Napoli their first win in the Europa League.
With the remaining matches, I think Napoli can be even better and I think their struggle is not only in Serie A but also focuses on the European league despite having had few points in the group phase.

With this victory, Napoli managed to end their negative trend in European competition this season, the victory over Legia was their first victory and an additional 3 points made Napoli now in second place in the standings with 4 points, although now their chances of qualifying are still wide open, but they can't make a mistake in the next match because it could be that other teams will benefit and make Napoli fail to qualify, moreover I see if all the teams in group C still have a big chance to qualify for the next phase, because all teams have a very big difference in points small from one team to another.

Thanks for the correction are actually talking about the Sheriff team with the Real Madrid which took almost every football fan by surprise. I guess I had much thought about the Man United ever since their spectacular winning against Atlanta on Wednesday.

The Europa next game will take place next month between

Galatasaray vs Lokomotiv Moscow
Marseille vs Lazio
Leverkusen vs Real Betis
Leicester City vs Spartak Moscow
Sparta Prague vs Lyon
Do you think Sparta will lose against Lyon again just like they lose in the first leg?

[boltz]

I know that Sheriff Tiraspol has made some big financial efforts in the last 3 years in order to build this team. Don't forget they are from Republic of Moldova which is exactly near my country and they speak the same language like Romanians so building such an expensive team in a country like this takes great risks but in the end it payed off right ? Anyway, enough with UCL and what happened last night with Bodo vs Roma ?? Did mourinho forgot how to build his defensive ? or was Bodo on a great night that any effort from the other team to stop the goals were in vain.

Napoli got their first win and this is huge for them. But they can't afford to make any mistake right now. Legia has 2 more points than Napoli as they have won 1 more match than them. Napoli and Leicester City have almost the same stats. Napoli is ahead on goal difference. So Napoli can't consider losing right now because they might have to pay a heavy price for that. If Napoli even draws, Leicester City might just go ahead of them in the points table. Right now all the teams have legit chances of qualifying in my opinion though.

Already corrected, thank you @poldanmig.

right now Napoli is at the top of the table. They have played 8 matches and won all of them. And AC Milan is in the 2nd place with the same matches played and only 1 draw and 7 wins. They are only 2 points behind Napoli. So Napoli can't afford to make any mistake right now. Inter is in 3rd place with 17 points so they don't pose a threat for Napoli right now. Still Napoli should be careful and play real serious.

Sorry Bro @Minecache , It looks like you are in the wrong thread if you want to discuss the Italian league standings competition , because this thread is intended only for discussions of the european league not the italian league, Although napoli is an italian football team, but of course you can discuss this in the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1159855.msg58242074#msg58242074

Although this is Napoli's first win, they are now second in the points table. At the same time, Napoli has scored the most goals in the group. Napoli has scored 7 goals. However, Napoli's performance this season is very good. They are able to overcome any obstacle. Although they shared points in the first two matches, they will play to their full potential in the next matches. Napoli's next match is against Legia. I hope Napoli will win the next match and rise to the top of the points table.

I would not hesitate to say that Napoli will qualify for the next phase at the Europa League. They will certainly be more focused this time to maximize the opportunities that exist to qualify for the next phase by winning at least 2 more match. In Serie A Napoli also have to maintain a consistent win if they don't want their current position to be taken over by AC Milan and I don't think Napoli will lose focus on these two competition.

I didn't know about the past of the club until now. It seems like them investing a hefty amount has paid off. The most important thing is that they have got the recognition needed. I bet barely anyone knew about them before the Real Madrid match. But they deserved the win and I'm very happy if they make it through to the next round.

One thing I love about europa league is that there's always goal galore, if your analysis is right you can win almost often with over 2.5 goals, Napoli finally gets their first win, a well deserved victory without conceding a goal, 3 nil, a shock result came out from Glimt vs Roma, can't believe that Roma will conceded 6 goals from Glimt, I'm just wondering what excuse Mourinho will have to say to the press, despite playing without no red card

In fact, there are more goals in the Champions League, but I think it's not as interesting to watch, because there everything is obvious, almost always. In this case, the europe league. Absolutely unpredictable matches. Who knew that MU could lose? Nobody, they miraculously won. The same can be said about the match of the second round of Napoli - Legia. In the Champions League in the last two years everything is more than predictable and you can only watch the finals, and that's purely out of interest.
