😂 Very good!
For those who didn't see it, he's already had a big long celebration over the hoardings, then comes back to start round two with "the succulent Jordanian meal" and that's why he gets a second yellow 😅 Incredible!

If asked "Name an inspirational person in your life" how many of them would pick a role model, not a parent? (Because of course like 95% of people are inspired by their parents.)
People are seeing the Serena answer as kind of a joke, but it's the only proper answer 😅

I absolutely love the early rounds of the UEFA competitions!
Looking forward to being around the grounds of Europe long before the "big teams" get started 🙌
🏆 There will be no Real Madrid, Man. City or Bayern Munich when the 2024/25 Champions, Europa & Conference Leagues start this week.
So who are the clubs in the qualifying rounds? And what do you need to know about them? Let us introduce you to 10 of the participants.

The first goalscorer at LASK's new stadium was none other than Katharina Mayr, the captain and first ever signing when they launched their women's team.

Urgh. Bad for Austria, and terrible for Austria.
Is this a strong case to suggest that bottom half teams shouldn't get a European place after all?

They gave it their all, and came up just short tonight against a very talented Belgium team.
There were clear plans, and for a lot of the time they worked well. Sometimes really good players just hurt you. On another day Austria could have picked up a result.
