UEFA Cup Group Stage Matchday 3

Anderlecht 1-1 Tottenham FT

Not a very high quality game, but fairly entertaining. Spurs looked poor and but for some poor finishing they could have lost (although in fairness they created chances themselves).

Wow, we had an upgrade in lols there.

Braga only gets the one point... damn.

Congrats Luso you overtook us:

You're in deep $h!t next season when you loose 10 points & we only 5.

Good second half from Braga,only one chance for Aris,a header,and they messed it up.Braga controlled the half and mopped everything up before it even reached the penalty area,but were no threat on the break themselves.They kept it simple and closed the game up.Three B's to go through from this group!

and germany will lose only 4,7 points, and france 13,5 points, so we will be the 4th best league in the world

so far this seasons looks not bad for the germans, and with bremen and schalke i am confidnet that both will win there final matches and will join the next round

And don't you forget HSV vs Bayern in the UEFA-Cup final next may.

We will only recover an higher spot when we play with 4 teams(3 bigs plus 1) as that is the best way to maximize our rating.

As it is we also play with minion teams that ruin our stats completly.

Saying that we will also lose in the next 2 seasons Porto's points so we will suffer badly in european spots the next 2/3 years.

Of course we can compensate that with a good Sporting/Benfica campaign in Uefa cup (i doubt Braga will go far or even qualify after the draw last night), and above all with a super Porto in the CL

Yeah we were $h!t last night to be honest, however not suprising as our away form is wretched this season.

Players looked like their minds were on the league - amazing how we've been hardly anywhere near top gear yet pretty much cruised through the group.

I want Bayern in the knock out stages, so far this UEFA cup season has been far from exciting

Zokora had a poor game and generally the passing was poor but they got the result required and for once, Robbo had a relatively decent game.

leverkusen - sparta prag 1:0 (friedrich)

It's the same for Holland if we (would) get too many spots the average goes down. That's why the countries in the sub-top like us will have a cyclic movement up & down the tables.

Romania's recent rise is an example too, they'll get more clubs, average goes down, so they'll get less again & have to hope for all their topclubs having a good run, to get more spots.
