European Leagues Thread 2012/2013

[double d]

Benevento lose in the last minute again!!!! Currently 0 points from 13 games. Pretty sure they won't get more then 10 points all season.

Apparently the first team in any of the major European leagues to lose their first 13 games of a season. Were previously tied with the 1930-31 Man United side.

3 of their defeats have been to goals scored in injury time. Sassolo actually missed a penalty after 91 mins but still found time to score the winner on 93'.

I am going to start supporting them out of pity now. Two promotions in 2 years to get up to Serie A, just seem to be luckless at the moment.

Luckless and possible completely out of their depth. Only finished 5th in Serie B last year and promoted via the play-offs.

At the weekend 2nd placed Basaksehir beat table toppers Galatasaray 5-1 with Emmanuel Adebayor scoring a hat-trick

Non Europe:

Until yesterday there was 5 points separating the top 7 in the V-League in Vietnam. 2nd place Quang Nam beat the team in 7th last night to go top and they now all have just 2 games to go.

The title race is now out of the top 4 who have 4 points separating them.

Next weekends fixtures are:

2nd Vs 1st
3rd Vs 4th

Mentz! (or fixed)

Results mean 3 teams go into the last day of the season all on 45 points and 1 team on 42 points

Saturdays fixtures:
4th Vs 1st
5th Vs 2nd
3rd Vs 12th

It's almost like it was scripted or summat!!!

Dortmund 4-0 up after 25 minutes at home to Schalke

Schalke then score on 61, 65, 86 & 94 to finish 4-4

[Winston Biscuit]

Top 2 against each other tonight. Valencia are the form team in Spain having won their last 6 scoring 20 goals

Bate Borisov were losing in the 96th minute of the last game of the season, Dinamo would have won their first title for 13 years (Bate have won the last 12 in a row), until Bate popped up to score, get a draw and go ahead in the league table on head to head record with the same points .

Amazingly, a near carbon copy happened in Georgia. Dinamo Tbilisi were playing Torpedo, top vs 2nd with winner taking the league
Dinamo were 1-0 in the 96th minute and got a penalty. Score, get a draw and win the league. Miss and their opponents win the league. Dinamo captain stepped up to take it and promptly was saved by the keeper! Scenes!

Brilliantly poor decision sees a Lionel Messi goal not given last night. Shot straight at the keeper but it went straight through him and landed a foot over the line, linesman wasn't up with the play.

And everybodies favourite losers Benevento lose again. 14 games played. 0 points.

Sigh.

Pretty luckless, aren't they? They have lost 9 of those 14 by just the one goal.

Softest of soft penalties with two minutes to go sees Celtic stretch their unbeaten run to 66 games.

Appalling decision.

Yep, also terrible. Apparently there was some 'clarification' with referees last season about when a red card isn't a red card, which might have clouded his judgement, but Mignolet should have gone.

Looks like we have uncovered another non Liverpool fan!

Sergio Ramos gets the 24th red card of his career.

[Winston Biscuit]

Still 15 minutes to go and it's 3-4 in the Sevilla Vs Betis match, often said to be the biggest derby game in Spain. It's kicking off a lot too.

Wot a belter.
