I will get to more World Cup stuff tomorrow. Today was Europa Cup day. Arsenal, Lazio, Marseille, CSKA Moscow, Sporting Lisbon, Atletico Madrid, RB Salzburg and RB Leipzig are one step closer to finally making the disappointment of qualifying for the tournament they didn't want be in pay off.
There's some good teams in there. Just imagine an Arsenal-Atletico Madrid final. Or Marseille-Lazio. Or how about the two Red Bull teams? The jokes would just be too easy, wouldn't they? All that Red Bull in the stadium. All those fans full of energy. That is, if UEFA allow the sale of Red Bull in stadiums.
There was a good chance that one of either Salzburg and Leipzig weren't even going to be in European competition this season. UEFA had to make a decision as to whether the two teams were breaking the rules of having two teams with the same owners playing in the same competition. They did announce before both teams played in the Champions League at the end of last summer that there was nothing preventing them from playing because Red Bull are only a sponsor of Salzburg and not an owner as they are with Leipzig.
And I don't really have anything else tonight but am struggling to end this. Shall I grab a Red Bull?
