It's been all Italy so far. The Norwegain resistance will surely

Pesky Norwegians somehow manage to hang on until half time, but it
surely won't last.

Swiss mercenary playing for the Italians gives away a silly ball at
the back, and the Norwegians pounce to make it 4-1 on aggregate.
Still, the Italian superiority is much too superior, they will come
back.
Fair enough, they want to try and make it interesting. 5-1 to Norway
on aggregate.

To be fair, that second Norwegian goal was pretty good.
The commentators just mentioned that Sondre
Brunstad Fet actually beat Klubo in a cross-country
youth competition before focusing on football.

Tell that to the team from Azerbaijan that [somehow] found
themselves in the Champions League knockout phase play-offs
and are losing 9-3 on aggregate to a mediocre English team...
interesting it is not!
There has to be something wrong when a Champions League knockout
play-off is so one-sided.

Italy pull one back thanks to the honest and unfairly maligned Bastoni
(with some help from GLT). Game on!

Not even close to the CL aggregate record though
(Bayern-Sporting 12-1 in 2008/09).
And technically itrCOs the same margin by which Chelsea
lost to Bayern in the Round of 16 just six years ago.

Atleti takes care of business at home versus Club Brugge and advance

Ciao,

Juventus had already missed a few chances before Torreira slid in on 35 minutes with a ridiculous challenge from behind to give away a penalty
which Locaetelli converted by sending the keeper the wrong way to put Juventus 1-0 up. Juve have been banging on the door since.
As predicted there is life in this tie yet, we're in first half injury
time and Galatasaray lead 5-3 on aggregate.

Juventus had Kelly sent off early in the first half for stamping on

In first half injury time this happened - Galatasaray finally found
Osimhen free and he put the ball through the keeper's legs to make it
3-1 Juventus, 6-5 Galatasaray on aggregate.
Juventus missed a very good chance early on but Galatasaray had more attacking play in the first half of extra time. Is the man advantage and Juve tired legs finally telling?
RM
Juventus deserved to win the tie in the 90 minutes, they really were
that good (and Galatasaray really were that awful). Galatasaray only
really started to look like a team in extra time.
I told you there was still life in this tie!
It sounds as if Juventus for once did not suck, but football still
does.
Thanks for the reports, and good luck to Cimbom in the next round!
