Haaland is out; Molde has Leverkusen away, and Bodø/Glimt is
travelling to Brugge. It's 1066 all over again.

With double points these leads means nothing. A single winner will
gain at least 10 points on number 2.

Makes it very interesting especially since teams guaranteed top spot, or

Points are doubled in UtN, not in the actual competitions!

I know. What I meant was that the stakes are doubled in the least
predictable round in our game. So picks need to be adjusted quite a
lot, like picking Vertessen for example.

Yes, good pick. So far goals by Vertessen and Nketiah, both last minutes UtN subs. But the most shocking result of all is that Sevilla is about to be knocked out of the Europa League!

Not quite yet...Sergio Ramos makes it 1-1 from the penalty spot (on the second try). Big goal for the Siglo too!

Ramos with a chance to be the hero in the 94' minute, but he skies it over the bar from 8 meters out (with two defenders rushing to close him down, to be fair).

... and Fulgini makes it 2-1 to Lens in the 96th minute. Sevilla out.

If I'm not mistaken, Arthur Cabral's 92nd minute goal sends Benfica into the EL, and Salzburg out of Europe. Ouch.

Yes, I had a front seat view. At least it was a very nice goal. Cabral had just come on a minute earlier, too.

Overall, it seems like there will be some leaner years ahead for us. Salzburg and other Austrian clubs have
punched above their weight in recent years, but now it looks like regression to a previous mean. It's the usual
cyclic nature of the UEFA ranking between (roughly) ranks 10 and 20 (Scotland and Serbia will go the same path),
although the effect of the new format starting next year is still unclear.

aargh, work stuff such as proofing final exams distracted me from making
lineup changes and as a result I still have Openda and Simons in there,
who did not start. At least they are on the bench.
Rodri also not starting but I did not pick him. I will be more alert at
12:30 our time.

That's a 3-4-4 formation, as far as I can tell. I know the Siglo is good, but do you really want to play shorthanded? I'll make your 12th player a placeholding forward that plays tomorrow.

As I was saying...Captain Ferran Torres' goal propels the Siglo to the top of the match day standings (and the overall standings too, I think)

Boniface, Diomande and Tijani not starting. We are going all in on Genk, including forward listed as midfielder Yira Sor. Also, Cape Verdean Leandro Andrade of Qarabag gets a start. Updated Wakas:


DF: Mbemba, Tapsoba, Ogbu
MF: Sor, Bukari, Leandro Andrade, Anguissa
FW: Orban, Osimhen(c), Paintsil, Aubameyang, Moumbagna

Moumbagna likely a placeholder

And the same mistake again. At least Lukaku has scored. Tielemans not
playing. Gravenberch has come on as a sub.

Only one Pellegrino goal in the late matches, gets the Vikings off zero. I'll post the full results and standings later, but for the moment:
