It's always harder to beat a team twice in the same tournament
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you give examples of this being the case?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes, Germany beating the Czechs twice in 1996; Brazil beating Turkey twice in 2002; Greece beating Portugal twice in 2004; Belgium beating England twice in 2018...

Wait a minute -

So it's always harder to beat a team if you've already lost to them in the tournament?

Also Germany changed their entire 11 for facing England as they were already through. But maybe their 1st team is worse than their 2nd team

I kind of agree with the point overall though. I hate when United get a team in one of the cups that they play in the league the same week.

yeah they lose disgracefully every time

Boca & River in a bad way at the moment. Both looked poor

England lost 3 times in their greatest ever (legitimate) world cup campaign, in 2018.

Which is worse than Scotland's worst ever campaign, having only ever lost 2 matches at a single world cup.

Our world cup win was legit because we were playing drug cheats in the final, which pretty much supercedes any other controversies in that game.

Who iz dat?

Seems cheap to me, I use to live near the nou mestalla, it was half done with all the concrete laid out, they abandoned it due to the 2008 crises, surely they have to knock it down and rebuild it from scratch?

https://www.valenciacf.com/valencia-cf-successfully-completes-322-million-financing-for-new-stadium-nou-mestalla-will-be-one-of-the-largest-stadiums-in-europe

They don't have enough fans to fill anything close to 70,000. Unless contending for the league

if they get successful again they would

yeah Valencia are part of Spain's historic big 5 clubs

a decent Valencia side would get 70K every home game imo

Good game on guys, Juve V Man City

Yeah but it's that club world nonsense

Juve got to be mad to watch it

Juve got better things to do surely

Juve got to get away from it

bad mistake by Ederson for the equaliser

It's on me Ederson
