Shows the potential ups and downs that are always evident in a two-leg semi final. I mean, I don't think many would have had Villa down to lose over two legs to Olympiakos, and definitely not 6-2...!! Shows that whilst we should be confident, anything can happen
Olympiacos possibly have more European experiences as they compete at some level year after year. In contrast, Villa's is more sporadic. And perhaps their focus lay elsewhere.
Thank you for the updates. The "new" Olympic Stadium was the former home of AEK.and, I think, Panathinaikos. So it's just back to the athletics
I'm old enough to remember Panathinaikos losing to a Cruyff inspired Ajax in the 1971 European Cup final.
This first link is a short video of a blind mascot at Wolves, that shows Mario Lemina to be a great person. The second link a longer version if you want to see more about the lad.

Anyone seen this ? Sweden is the only elite league in Uefa's top 30 to not have VAR. BBC Sport went to find out how and why supporters turned against it. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/videos/c6pyp32n198o
No chance it'll pass sadly. Was triggered by just one club and they'd need another 13. If there was that sort of support for scrapping it it'd have already happened. Big respect to Wolves though. Love to see it, I wonder if they consulted the support.
Bolton Wanderers 0-1 Oxford United after 31 mins at Wembley. Interesting start to the L1 playoff final. Oxford good value for their lead
I thought there was quite a hefty push in the build up to the second goal. Still, Oxford very much the better side.
Bayer Leverkusen have become the first side ever to complete a Bundesliga season undefeated. 28 wins, 6 draws.
I thought Oxford were playing a ringer, when I saw Josh Murphy. Didn’t realise that Jacob Murphy had an identical twin.
