RB Leipzig

2-0

Game over. Leverkusen are far too good and Leipzig can’t defend without Orban. This back 5 formation should never be seen again though.

O ye of little faith!!

Haha if you'd seen them in that first half you'd understand. Like prime 2002 Brazil.

Quick highlights of the goals (thankfully, as it cuts out Leverkusen dominance)

RBL Matchday

Stinky international break is over, like 90% of the squad was away and thankfully no one came back with an injury but still more tired legs from double games. It's a home tie vs Union Berlin today and Rose has, surprisingly, decided to stick - it seems - with the 3-4-1-2 formation from the Leverkusen game whilst giving a debut to Geertruida who I'm excited to see but also still have no idea how to pronounce his name. Little bit confused they're going with quite a negative formation as 3 centre halves (presume Geertruida is the RCB) just aren't necessary except against the big boys. My guess is it's just to mirror Union's formation which is a favourite of Bo Svensson. They have 4pts from first two matchdays so won't be an easy game at all.

Game is LIVE from 14.30pm.

Openda misses a pen in the 74th minute. Was a soft one and he didn't look confident at all taking it (missed one last week for Belgium).

Game has been a snooze fest.

RBL Matchday

2nd round of CL fixtures and it's home tie against Juventus. Leipzig won comfortably at the weekend (4-0) but this will be a whole other proposition. Juve aren't what they once are in terms of star names but still got a brilliant squad and defensively excellent. Going to be a tough night, maybe a draw? Would be nice for Leipzig's strikers to come out and impose themselves early like they did against Atleti.

Game is LIVE from 8pm on TNT Sports 6

If COVID wasn’t making me want to just pass out asleep this game will. Two incredibly slow and defensive teams on display.

Erm like 3 seconds after posting that Sesko just scored a screamer out of nothing.

Juve denied a certain pen there by VAR. Bizarre to say the least.

1-1

It was coming. Juve the only team to come out of the changing rooms. Rose made a really defensive sub at half time and it’s just zapped the energy out of the side.

Juve down to 10 after keep sent off.

1-1

Penalty to Leipzig. Douglas Luiz just come on then blocks a free-kick with his hand. Openda was gonna take but thankfully Sesko took it off him.

Sesko slots pen c’mon.

FFS keep a lead you pack of nobs.

Absolute Ev. Wouldn’t be shocked if Rose is sacked soon.
