I didn't watch the game but it sounds like Dinamo was completely hosed on a good goal today that was called offside. If VAR was used in the game, the goal would have stood. I'm not trying to make excuses here because I'd rather Dinamo play in the Europa League group stage compared to Champions League, but they still need to get there. It sucks that they had to go on … [Read more...] about No Bjelica, No Olmo, No Champions League: Dinamo Out

France Beats Croatia 4-2…Again; With Own Goal & Trash Penalty Call
By 151 Comments
Not just did France beat Croatia with another 4-2 result - just as they did in the World Cup Final - but they did it with another own goal and undeserved penalty call. Obviously, not that big of a deal this time around as UEFA Nations League is no World Cup and both sides were without their best players. Here are my notes from the France game: 1. After the … [Read more...] about France Beats Croatia 4-2…Again; With Own Goal & Trash Penalty Call
Portugal Defeats Zero-Intensity Croatia 4-1
By 174 Comments
I'm just going to leave this right here. No need for me to repeat myself. I hate these games. We put out a decent lineup but the players either are told not to play or decide they're not going to play for whatever reason. At that point, better to put out the U21s or HNLers and let them play their hearts out. Croatia have never beat Portugal in … [Read more...] about Portugal Defeats Zero-Intensity Croatia 4-1
