Wolves deserve their lead but can they keep it up?

That was an unbelievable miss by Aubameyang. The one player you expect to score and he f**ked it up.

Incidentally, the effect of all of tonight's results is that Scotland are not yet *quite* guaranteed a second UCL spot from 2021-22 just yet. It's almost there, but not quite. They're 14th in the coefficient table but until such time as Olympiakos and FC Basel are knocked out, Scotland can still be overtaken by both. They need to be in the top 15 to get a second UCL place.

It's very unlikely, but still possible. Also, 14th (as opposed to 15th) also puts the Scottish champions into the third qualifying round, as opposed to the second qualifying round (the champions of the 15th and 16th ranked league go into the second qualifying round).

Scotland are sitting in 14th and should remain there barring some very good results for either Olympiakos or FC Basel but nothing is guaranteed yet.

AFTV will be legendary tonight. Absolute banter club. Manchester United have had their moments in the post Ferguson era but Jesus Arsenal are just another level altogether. Brilliant stuff altogether.

I hope someone thinks to remind Arse Feck Tee Vee that Olympiakos are only in the Europa League because Spurs pushed them into 3rd place in their CL group earlier in the season. Wink

It’s all a bit of fun and jest. Every club gets the banter when these results occur. Spurs made olympiakos bang average and they probably are which makes the result hilarious.

"Bang average" is probably being kind to Olympiakos.

A poor Spurs team made hard enough work against them, but in the end, moving up a gear for a 30 minute spell in the 2nd half of the 2nd leg at WHL was enough to put them away. I didn't see tonight's game, but it's hard to know how any half decent PL team couldn't have done the same.

Meanwhile, I note that yet again, the Arse didn't have a single British or Irish, never mind English, player in their starting XI. There were two young English players on the bench, with just one of them playing the last 6 minutes of the 90 (plus ET, obviously).
