Year Round The Football/Soccer Thread v2

So I managed to watch the Galatasary game over here in Dubai at like 11pm and WHAT A GAME IT WAS! Absolutely fantastic! Great goals and good end to end play!

So wenger thinks the gunners can do it! It's not impossible but really!?

Found this comment funny on bbc:

wenger puts out a weak side to prepare for a 1-3 defeat to munich , he then sends out a weak team to make sure he gets knocked out of the cl so he can get 4th spot so he can then qualify for the cl so he can then lose in the cl down the line so he can get 4th spot next season ...what a complete load of irish logic...wenger is an idiot.

The rich countries in the middle east "colonizing" European football is a long talked about topic. It will lead to the ruin of the good old football that is known in the continent. Money will ruin it.

Arsenal scored....

This is a repeat of yesterday!.....UEFARSENAL!

 

[Josef]

Lol, game on I guess.

Interestingly enough if Malaga goes through Spain will have three teams. Despite looking bad after the first round up matches.

Arsenal scored....

Cause I'm watching the game...

 

[Josef]

So in most countries the broadcast is from the Arsenal game, we have the Porto game here.

We have both matches!

i cant see arsenal gettin through,no wonder today

I only have Fox Soccer, I don't have Fox Soccer Plus...so they show the other game on taped delay afterwards. But I was more interested in seeing the Iberians initially. However, if Arsenal scores again this half, it might become interesting.

 

[Hardy]

I have Arsenal in ESPN and Porto in Fox Sports.

 

[Josef]

Well the state run tv station here " Macedonian Television" chooses the best match out of the day, according to them, the Porto game was more interesting. :/

Gary, don't you also have random Fox sports channels from other places around the country? They're shown on those. For example, I have DISH Network and I'm watching Fox Soccer (channel 390) and Prime, RTRM, Fox SW, Fox Arizona, Fox Mountain West, and a whole bunch of other Fox sports channels around the country show it.

I can understand that. Most people thought Arsenal was dead and buried.

Well, Fox has the Champions League, so they get it all. They have Europa League too. The only things on ESPN here are International matches and EPL matches on the weekend usually. beIN Sports has La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, Bundesliga...

I have digital cable, so no. We have Comcast sports net rather than Fox. Interestingly, they'll show Aston Villa matches midweek for some reason...

Doesn't ESPN still get to show like CL SFs and the Final? Or have they lost tv rights over even that?

Ah, I see. That is unfortunate.

Not really, we have two channels that are nothing but soccer, and then a couple that show them weekly or occasionally.

I think the final might have been on ESPN...maybe. But their big thing is the WC and Euros.

 

[Mazino]

now porto vs malaga seems on fire ...now that malaga tied

 

[Josef]

Lol, I guess in the end the station did choose wisely, the game was rather boring in the beginning, but one goal and one dismissed goal, this should get interesting.

 

[FrostyMouse]

It was wrongfully denied, in my opinion.
