    Promotion Playoffs.

    Fulham (2) vs Derby (1) - Fulham advances to the final.
    Aston Villa (1) vs Middlesborough (0)

    Boro hired Pulis so fuck Boro they can stay down.

    Is this a thing? I thought only the top two in the CL got in and the playoff winner got in?

    PL gets 4 slots. 5 if the past years winner is also PL but not top 4.

    Same goes for Spain, Germany, and Italy.

    It was changed in 2016. Starting in 2018+ top 4 leagues get four group stage spots, no qualifiers needed.

    Atleti win Europa League, surprising exactly zero (0) people.

    Formality after they knocked out Arsenal.

    I hope ESPN makes it easy for us to watch the promotion playoff final.

    I'll half-heartedly watch the FA Cup Final at home, but we'll go to the pub for the CL final--the last bit of excitement before the WC a month later.

    We've been terrible at finishing our chances for the last two months.

    Being robbed by refs doesn't help. But we played like shit.

    They will get VERY close to doing so and then inevitably fucking blow it.

    who's your if-not-Germany pick?

    Brazil then Spain, France, Argentina, Belgium, so say the oddsmakers

    how far will the shenanigans go during Russia's matches?

    they'll make the knockouts via some bullshit

    If not Germany I'm going with Belgium.

    I don't trust Argentina or Brazil.
