Champions League in the summer

Day -715. WorldCup2018‬

There's always football, in these days of almost never ending seasons. With Europe getting bigger, more countries more teams, I wonder if the Champions League Season 2018/19 will start before the 2018 World Cup, just a few weeks after the end of Season 2017/18. It may just all become one continuous season.

Today, in the midst of the Euros, the supposedly summer tournament, the Champions League qualifiers started. Of personal interest, Maltese champions Valletta beat Faroe Islands' B36 Torshavn 1-0 in the first leg. A great start then on the road to the final in Cardiff. I'm not a gambling man but I will predict that for whoever wins this tie the road will end in the next round against Red Star Belgrade.

Ah well, the dream was good for a week. Next year.
