UEFA Champions League 25/26

That was a football masterclass reminiscent of Walter Smith’s Rangers going to Celtic Park and winning 1-0 against a Tommy Burns Celtic team who would throw several kitchen sinks with the texture of marshmallow at them.

Some renaissance for Luis Enrique. Lads had him written off after the World Cup with Spain in 2022.

Arsenal psg has the potential to be a cracker…

Both the rugby and soccer European finals are attack v defence.

I suspect both arsenal and Leinster will end victorious.

This is the first time the Champions League has been played out between two capitals? Last European Cup final was?

Madrid v Partiizan Belgrade in the 60s. I can’t think of any others bar Madrid benfica which would have been earlier .
Could argue Ajax v Panathanikos was one also maybe - not sure when Den Haag became capital of holland and some say it’s still Amsterdam anyway
