3-3 now. Sociedad keeper flogging the Real Madrid equaliser on the night. 4-3 on aggregate now.

Real get it back to 2-3 and level the tie again. Both sides going for it.

Sociedad 3-1 up and now ahead in the tie.

Sociedad 2-1 up and level up tie 2-2 on aggregate. Good game this.

Madrid back level and a head in the tie.

This is only being done to benefit the usual two and not the rest of us. If they want to reduce fixtures for rest of top flight then ditch the league cup group games and go back to straight knockout format. Means could start league games earlier and create space later in calendar. Would not benefit either of the bigots but might others.

Real Sociedad level tie in Spanish cup semi final. On Premier Sports just now.

Just watched highlights of that. Neither team seemed capable of defending. Could easily have finished 5-5.

Really pleased with that performance other than the goal we conceded. Clarkson and Palaversa were excellent. Better from Okkels but no way I would pay a fee for him. Thought Gueye was lucky not to get a red for his challenge in first half without having seen if back on TV. Nisbet lead forward line brilliantly. Still not sure how his second dipped so much. Ross Hardie is a terrible referee and probably does need some time back in lower leagues. Should not be officiating top flight games. Very pleasant journey back to capital tonight.

As this is last season 3rd could be guaranteed European group football think we need to get in to get in and make the cash.

Match is a sell out according to club.

For fucks sake Manc where’s the game day thread. Mitov out and P&J reporting that Nilsen out injured for next few weeks as well. Really glad I booked that expensive train ticket.

Finished 4-1 to Argentina. They were well ahead of Brazil even without Messi. Brazil looked a very ordinary side.

Fantastic first half ending with the standard half time fight between the teams.

Be funny if both Palestine and Iran could qualify for the World Cup. Trump’s head would explode.

3-1 Argentina. Argentinians playing some fantastic football. Some atmosphere in River’s stadium.

Brazil back in it with first shot on target. 2-1 now.

2-0 Argentina now after 12 minutes. Brazil hardly touched the ball so far.

Argentina 1-0 up on Brazil after 5 minutes. Brazil did not touch the ball for first two minutes of game.

For any insomniacs Argentina v Brazil is on Premier Sport at midnight tonight.

On a brighter note U17s win 8-0. Fletcher Boyd among the scorers.

Thankfully I had meetings in work today so missed this. U21s under Gemmill seem to be getting worse every time.

To be fair Scotland would struggle in the Highlsnd league on last nights showing.

That comment was on train coming back tonight. Much like Brown Clarke is failing to learn from mistakes and being to loyal to players who have served him well in the past but may be no longer up to the task.
