The Europa league often has smaller name teams who find form over the season and ride a wave of the momentum/hype that comes with that. It tends to take them past big name sides who on their day are better than them but are having inconsistent seasons.

I saw it with Rangers and Frankfurt last season. Freiburg have the potential to do similar, it could be a tricky draw.

These are the same neckbeards on this forum who said Di Maria is a finished player.

Why are your fellow Frenchies so butthurt?
Juve has a history with France, we have always eliminated French clubs. We beat Nantes in 1996, on their only European campaign, they are bitterness because of that.

This filthy Serie A is tarnishing our image, they don't know anything about how it works in italy, but as they read 2 lines on l'Equipe, they have a clear opinion. Before the match their supporters put up a banner "Club of cheating, scheming and repression. For 27 years, always the same leitmotif". The red card+ penalty combo was an excuse to vent their bitterness.

The thing is Rangers weren't having a great domestic season last year. Their run in Europe was astonishing in that context. Mcgregor was huge for them so many times, big game goalkeeper.

K.O. football is just different, takes a different skillset and mental belief, been shown many times. Of course having great players/coaches helps win any game but we've seen lots of mediocre league sides over the years do well in cup games.

30m is nothing. uefa keeps 1/3 of the revenue from all of their club competitions just to spend it on administrator's wages who can pose as important people. 150k goes to board members, ceferin earns above 2m (and gave himself a raise during covid years when clubs he's milking lost billions lol), overpaid nobodies who are given way too much importance

the fact that juve has been mismanaged doesn't change the fact that the whole uefa scheme is a farce
