Europa League 2012/13 - Now NOT Featuring Falcao

Crap, that's quite a good team...

Here's Lazio - Marchetti; Cavanda, Biava, Dias, Lulic; Ledesma; Gonzalez, Hernanes, Onazi, Mauri; Klose

The players in bold are kids and pretty much untested at Serie A level, never mind Europe.

I didn't realise how strong they can actually look. Just put money on Defoe to score a brace 7/1.

JONJO

Oh Brad Jones was pretty good tonight as well. I know he conceded 3, but couldn't do much about any of them, and was impressed with his command of the area and catches during crosses as well as the quick distribution. Good to see, especially with Reina so shaky.

Fuck sake Newcastle...

Here we go...

Bilbao behind to a random team called Shmona.

Bale thinks he's Ronaldo.

Cute.

Inter behind to Kazan, both Milan clubs have been shocking so far this season

Old news.

Inter have been shocking at home in Europe, lost both qualifiers I think

Edit - lost one drew one, either way, both were games they should have won.

It's really quite sad how much he seems to have believed his own hype.

Inter are level.

Halfway there. Spurs have been the better side and punishing us down our left but we've had a few chances on the break, shame Klose left his shooting boots in Rome.

Credit to the Lazio fans in the ground, totally out singing the Spurs fans throughout the half.

Rapid Wien 0-1 Rosenborg HT
Tarik Elyounoussi 19'

\o/

0-2
Mikael Dorsin 60'

Perfect.

Spurs have had two very close goals disallowed.

That second should have counted.

Hate footballers.

Bale with his head in the turf, hitting the ground in agony and then suddenly perks up when the play is stopped for him.

Rapid Wien are getting closer. First they equalised and then got a penalty, which Örlund thankfully saved.

Phew! 2-1 the full time score. Played awful, would have lost to a better side I'm sure.

Well done Lazio. Thought Tottenham would win tonight.

Inter saved themselves I see, bloody hell.

Thank god that's over. Spurs maybe should have been given that goal from the corner but the other two calls were probably right.

I thought that Dempsey goal looked onside.

Napoli \o/

Vargas looked really good out there. Not that AIK offered much opposition, mind.

Uefa have opened disciplinary proceedings against Lazio after the racist chanting from 50 or so of our 'fans' in the Spurs game last night. It's our first offense so it's likely to just be a fine but the sad thing is it won't do any good. Those doing the chanting were almost certainly from one of the right wing groups that infect the Curva Nord in Rome and their loyalty is to their group first and the club second.

Hapoel Kiryat Shmona are beating Lyon 1-0 8)

And losing 2-1 already...

HIF leading over Twente at half-time

Relatively strong team to face Udinese:

Reina; Johnson, Coates, Carragher, Robinson; Henderson, Allen, Shelvey; Assaidi, Downing, Borini.
