One year ago today the Chapecoense team was wiped out in that terribly, sad plane crash. Last week, they ensured they will not be relegated form Brazil's top division this season. It's a wonderful achievement for a team that came from nowhere to be in a continental final, only to have to start all over again.
Today, Tottenham proved again that they can't do well in both the Premier League and the Champions League in the same season. It seems to be one or the other and this year the Champions League looks like it's the one.
Tomorrow Toronto FC play Columbus in the second leg of the Eastern Conference final. For TFC it's simple: win and they are in the MLS Cup Final for a second year in a row. And the chance at redemption will be even sweeter as it will take an incredible turnaround from Houston Dynamo to overcome Seattle Sounders in their second leg. Let's not plan ahead here but a TFC-Seattle re-match, in Toronto on December 9th, is a real possibility. Will it happen, will it be colder than last year, will we see the orange ball again and will Seattle have a shot on goal?
