UEFA Cup 2006/2007

[Tanel]

I'm going to watch Levadia vs. Twente today. 1:1 first leg at Holland. I've been excited ever since the morning.

It may be a historic day for our club football in case either Flora or Levadia gets through to the first round. Estonian clubs have never gotten past the qualifiers.

Flora drawed at home vs. Brondby 0:0.

Levadia atm is the biggest team in Estonian and they'll probably be that for many years. They have loads of talents, great youths in Estonian terms, enough money. In league they haven't lost this season yet and it's like 23 games already into the season.

I would've not been suprised that if they would've been in CL for us instead of the chokers of TVMK it would've been atleast third qualifying round for them + UEFA Cup first round.

Well, good luck to your team..

This season I'm going to follow more than usual UEFA Cup because my hometown club Dinamo Zagreb has pretty good chance to make some success this year..I dreamt we could play in CL, but the draw was cruel and surprise, surprise - we got Arsenal..Now, this afterall is our realistic target and chance to play in European competitions throughout the winter..

I don't know much about Estonian football, but I guess it's pretty the same we have in Croatia..One or two stronger clubs that have reasonable grounds and players to achieve something, but rarely do so..The problem, IMO lies in fact that our clubs don't face though opponents, they usually win local league without sweating..Another problem is lack of experience in European competitions..Money, well, we all know our clubs can't compete with other established clubs..We have plenty of talent, too, but can't resist to tempting offers made by wealthy clubs..

Anyway, I would love to see Dinamo in Group Stages of Uefa Cup so I can watch the matches live..

LEVADIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELL YEAH!!!!

History is made!

Levadia 1:0 FC Twente

 

[Mustafa]

Slavia Prague 0 - 0 Karvan (2-0 Agg.)

10 mins. remaining. I am still hoping for miracle, that Karvan will score 2 goals.

 

[Michal]

I love Slavia. They were always unlucky in CL qualifications so I hope they will succeed at least in UEFA Cup...:star:

Czech & Slovak teams:

Liberec (CZE) v Červená Hviezda (Belgrade)
Sparta (CZE) v Hearts of Midlothian
Marseille v Mladá Boleslav (CZE)
Slavia (CZE) v Tottenham

unlucky draw for Czech teams

Ružomberok (SVK) v Brugges
fc11m artmedia (SVK) v Espanyol

only Ružomberok has real chance to play group phase...

Dinamo Zagreb - Auxerre

I'm happy with the draw, attractive and not too strong opponent..We definitely have chance..good..

 

[brehme1989]

Only Atromitos from the Greek teams can't pass(theoretically)
Ethnikos Achnas, from Cyprus, will find it extremely hard.

Anyway, Panathinaikos:star: will win the UEFA so end of discussion

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas...

Any team could win it,except for the green b*tch!!!!

 

[Forza ragazzi]

"My" teams from Norway has faced tough rivals for the next round. Start, of Kristiansand, will face Ajax. There could be changes due to the Portuguese clubs thing, though. Anyhow, Start promoted from the first division (2nd level) to Tippeligaen (top division) in 2004 and last year they nearly won the league right away, beaten by only a point by Oslo team Vålerenga. Rosenborg, winner for 13 consecutive years before last year, didn't win for once. Both Vålerenga and Start are struggling mid-table this year and risk relegation battle if they don't get themselves together. Rosenborg? Back in the top this year. To the point, Ajax should proceed if the matches are played.

As for Molde, which is the club Ole Gunnar Solskjær was transferred from to Man Utd, they'll face Paul Le Guen and his Rangers. They are struggling this year, lying at the bottom of the table after 18 (of 26) matches. They shouldn't have a chance.

And the current leader of Tippeligaen, Brann of Bergen, bizarrely lost 4-5 on aggregate to Swedish 2nd level team Åtvidaberg. They're not doing well in the league either.

Great victroy today by Palermo away at West Ham. Maschreano and Tevez made their debut for Westham, but looked completly ineffective against Barzagli, Zaccardo and Diana.

 

[M.Adnan]

Palermo played a great great match.

Diana + Bresciano. :star:

 

[Pajo]

Damn, our champion Rabotnicki lost 6-2 to Basel. they played like shit, I didn't watch the first half though. At least they managed to score two times in the last 5 mins of the game.

 

[brehme1989]

Those bloody Portuguese Why do they still feel bad about the Euro? We just destroyed them twice in their home in a month's time, no biggy

That Portuguese ref made a bad PAO start even worse! Now everyone is against everyone in the team(like almost every year )

We got fouled many times and didn't receive them, including 2 clear penalties.

Our main keeper, Mario Galinovic, got injured for 3-4 months

1-1 final score

Other Greek teams:
Wisla-Iraklis 0-1
Atromitos-Sevilla 1-2
Xanthi-Dinamo Buc. 3-4

And Cypriot:
Ethnikos Achnas-Lens 0-0

 

[NimAraya]

Palermo is one of the interesting teams in these 3 years of appearing at the first class of football, specially in her first season 3 years ago!

 

[Wittmann]

Dinamo Zagreb - Auxerre 1-2..

Funny how most of the people here in Cro were sure we're going to crush Auxerre, typical for our mentality..Of course, this euphoria lasted for 30 mins after the match started and then we got classic KO..:wallbang:

Lol yeaj, I also thought that Dinamo will win. Maybe not crush Auxerre, but still one, two goals difference. In fact, I bet on tham that they will win. That game and Rabotncki (I played tham 0-2 goals) costed me almost 100 Euros.

 

[Michal]

Mladá Boleslav wiped Marseille 4:2 and will play in 2nd round.

WHAT THE HELL???

:wth:

Congrats anyway...
