Brilliant freekick from Villa

Onana scores at the end

Watkins having a torrid start to the season. Another good chance missed.

Kilishihunter:
Yup you're right, Medvedev and zverev are still in the mix but I still tip a focused sinner to bring it home especially if he manages to get to the final, but this us open sha, we were in shock over alcaraz losing yesterday only to see Djokovic the next to be bundled out

I want Zverev to win. That nigga has been trying had but continually falling short. He's basically won everything else in tennis, except a slam.

Kilishihunter:
Lots of favourites have lost in this year's edition, I've not seen something like this for a long time, all eyes on sinner who's now the biggest favourite

Yup, this is a big chance for Sinner.

Zverev and Medvedev may also be licking their lips.

Leyqute:
In other news, Alcaraz has been dumped out of the US Open by Van de Zandachulp (rank 72). He lost 6-1, 7-5, 6-4. 3 straight sets.

Omo, Djokovic is out too

Full time, all level.

Look at this mumu Estupinian

FBS:
e shock you too abi? lol

They guy no look up at all

Ayari has to do better...Raya was so poorly positioned there, the net was almost wide open

Down the other end, Saka can't generate enough power to beat the keeper on the stretch.

Big chance for Havertz and Saka

There's the equalizer from Joao Pedro

Perhaps Gabriel could've put more in his challenge.

Red card to Rice??


Ok I've seen the replay. He nudged the ball, and Veltman kicked him instead. I thought Veltman was being sneaky and kicked him on purpose.

So unnecessary from Rice.

Still, that was soft. I still feel there was some ill intent from Veltman.

Brighton now increasing the pressure

AirBere:
Or I'm happy to have been proven wrong. There is always an excuse waiting on the wings 4 Alhaji

U don chop ban too? Very good

Make dem share am round

That was such pathetic defending from Dunk. Up against Saka and you can't even jump well

Emphatic from Nkunku

Penalty...thanks to the pace of Mudiaga

So KDH no fit release that ball on time


Na wa

timbros:
Omor... I understand absolutely nothing in this fixtures. I need to go study the new format.

There are now 36 teams, and the preliminary phase is in league format. Each team plays eight matches in the league phase (4 home, 4 away; you get to play each team either home or away, instead of the usual home AND away). The graphic I posted had the fixtures for Pot 1 teams. Same was done for teams in Pot 2-4.

After 8 games played by all 36 teams, the top 8 move to the round of 16 automatically. 9th to 24th engage in a double legged knockout phase (kind of like a round of 16 before the main round of 16) to determine the eight teams that will complete the round of 16. From there, the competition assumes it's usual format.

Omo I no understand this draw again o...or has that new format started

Modified: Indeed it has...this is the new league phase format

Some really interesting fixtures in here, I can't lie

These are fixtures for pot 1 teams

Unlimited22:
This guy dey play like say e be midfielder.

I'm not looking for Messi. I'm looking for someone whose priority is defending.

Calma

If we do get Araujo, that will add to the fast growing Benfica alumin/Portuguese contingent at the club

Ballzproblem2:
Breaking: Chelsea really appreciate Tomas Araujo and have him on their shortlist for new centre back in case one leaves in next days. (@FabrizioRomano) #CFC

CAN he lcb I no trust badiashile if colwill no dey available

If Colwill is not available, Renato Viega can play LCB

Unlimited22, you wanted a new CB - you might get your wish, albeit this one's not very experienced


Tomas Araujo

Quite highly rated

Yamal's consistency at this age is crazy

WhoDeyHause:
Mtchu this one just dey use plenty English whyne us.
Until Fabrizio romano or ornstein cooks I'm not eating.

The guy just doubled down sef

Still take with a grain of salt

Unlimited22:
She's not a DM

The person who I still wonder how she's escaped the cull this year na grandma Sophie Ingle.

I don see am well, she's a CM. She shares some similarities with Erin sha. Watched her comp against Arsenal, was thoroughly impressed. Lovely dribbling, passing and overall transition play.

They'll probably sign another DM.

As for Ingle, her time dey come, she has tried.

What a counter from Liverpool

Jota to Diaz, moving with blistering pace

Once anybody score Hattrick, rashford go dey trend

Santos scores for Strasbourg

Itsrm:
Has always been. Reminds me of Willian. Plays nonsense all game and uses activity to cover it up.

That's simply not true. But carry on

FBS:
And that is how you win a game - GOALS!

You won't score plenty goals every time. That is where your defense comes in. If you don't address both, you will suffer the consequences.

Very easy sturv to understand.
