Explain to a dumb American how something like this can happen?
scoar sam fackin goals arryyou yell this enough times and it happens
Summon a wild Brazilian they will explain.
>>144511646It's easy to explain, the rich club beat the poor club. Try to explain how it is possible for Croatia to have a positive ratio against Germany in official matches.
>>144511723because in international matches you must have a set amount of actual home grown players and not mercenaries you buy from other coun.......
>>144511646>49' Bruno Petkovic
In theory it could happen in any game, so every so often, thanks to the magic of statistics, it does. Especially when one team is one of the best in Europe and doesn’t even have to try against their usual opponents most weeks, and plays a match against Yugoslavian farmers who will probably steal the copper from their dressing room on the way out.
>>144511742>will probably steal the copper from their dressing room on the way out.
The miracle is that the peasant team scored twice.
whats so special about this? bayern does this to EPL teams all the time... and they are not "poor"
>>144511742>Yugoslavian farmers who will probably steal the copper from their dressing room on the way outMario mandzukic 109
>>144511646Pic related but it's not just about the money, Bayern also managed to win 8-2 against Barcelona so it's a combination of factors, both lack of quality players and really bad tactical preparation.
>>144511646>Explain to a dumb American how something like this can happen?I think I can help: So basically it's like when Thanos got all the infinity stones and the avengers went to fight him in space and he was like KABLAAM BAZOOOM and Iron Man died and we thought it was over but then they were just like "BOOM WE GOT A HULK" and he went all like "this is for George Floyd" and smashed him. Anyway, so now we're gonna get a whole multiverse most likely
>>144511646Its honestly a great argument for the super league. Zagreb clearly dont deserve to play the best of the best just because they won the croatian farmers league
>>144511951Dinamo didn't automatically get in UCL, there was also a playoff against Qarabag where Dinamo won 5:0 on aggregate. But yeah at best Dinamo should play in Europa League in current form
>>144511951The wrong logic that has destroyed all the smaller countries and leagues. That's why Ajax will never win CL again. The difference would be reduced and equalized if the rule that each team is allowed to have 2 or 3 foreigners is returned.
>>144511646new UCL format it's shitsimple as
>>144511646>Explain to a dumb American how something like this can happen?Maybe think of UEFA Champions League like March Madness except at the professional level for all of Europe. There's a massive pool of teams from D1 leagues in Europe.In early rounds you have high seeds against low seeds and frequently lopsided scores. Like in 2013 you had top-ranked Syracuse playing Montana and the final score was 81 to 34.
6-2 happens frequentlyput 3 penalties on it, suddenly it's 9-2how is it any different than the dolphins raping the broncos 70-20?
>>144511646Remember that time the dolphins beat Denver 70 - 20?Exactly like that, a bunch of stadpadders frauds vs a bunch of random jobbers
>>144512002that just forces players to play for whatever teams in countries they were born in which is against labor lawswhat is actually needed to level the playing field is for UEFA to become a centralized TV/advertisement deal for all leagues and money is distributed hierarchically across all leagues based on performance
>>144511646Zagreb would relegate if they played in first bundes
>>144511733Bro... compare the croatian team to the likes of france
>>144511973More like conference
>>144512294Probably yeah, that's why I said "at best"
