I'm pretty sure Beckenbauer did that double.

Yup.

Didier Deschamps

I knew that. I knew a soccer question!

Massive result for Villa away at Brugge this morning. Would have regarded a point as a great result but to go back home with a 2 goal lead is huge. Tyrone Mings how did you keep that header out!

Arsenal with no strikers score 7 at PSV. Odd!

[KiwiPie]

This is the goal of the season

[Billy Tell]

I can’t believe what I just watched. Liverpool completely and utterly dominated by PSG but Allison a masterclass in goal and Elliott a goal against the run of play and Liverpool steal it.

And the shot attempts and xG were quite similar for both teams.

UCL Quarter-Final draw is interesting
PSG v Villa
Arsenal v Real Madrid
Bayern v Inter
Barcelona v Dortmund

PSG should have too much for Villa but former PSG coach Emery is sure to have some plan to contain them and hit them on the break.

Real Madrid also scraped through on pens but as usual they will be favourites as they generally get through.

Hard to pick between Bayern and Inter - actually fancy Inter for this one.

Barcelona should trounce Dortmund, Pedro, Raphinha and Lamine Yamal are purring at the moment.

And on the weekend games, how the hell did Bournemouth not beat Spurs? They really should have had 4 or 5 and then Spurs scored with a freak cross/shot and Kepa blundering into Son for a penalty

2 nil up and should have been possibly 4 or 5 and then the freak goal and kepa mental collapse, it was definitely points lost

PSG were impressive at Anfield. Especially in extra-time. As much as it pains me to say it, they deserved to go through.

Good thing for us is that we're away in Paris in the 1st leg. If we can come away behind by 1 at worst, then we can really target the home leg.

Ironically, our best player currently is PSG loanee Marco Asensio.

North West London is full of Northerners this afternoon. It's the League Cup Final. Liverpool trying to win their first trophy under Arnie Slot. Newcastle United trying to win their first major domestic trophy since 1955.

Tickets were going for £900 each on Friday.

0-0 after 35 minutes.

[sparky]

Big Dan Burn scores just before half time. Newcastle 1 Liverpool 0.

[sparky]

Isak puts the ball in the back of the net for a second, but the linesman's flag goes up. No goal.

[sparky]

And Isak does get a second. The Toon sent into ecstasy and delirium.

Newcastle 2 Liverpool 0

If it stays like this, it's goes to be a messy, messy evening and night on the Tyne.

[sparky]

A twist. Liverpool get one back in the 4th minute of Extra Time.

Newcastle 2 Liverpool 1.
