Yeah, because it's the last "match day", so they play at the same time to avoid that 2 teams, for example, agree to draw because the other 2 teams that played earlier would end 3rd and 4th then.


Oh yeah, we did that with Sweden some years ago and got Italy knocked out

I had a break from about 2009-2012 when RS kinda took over my life a bit (also Ronaldo left United, which made me sad), but after finding out Man City won the league, I realised a lot had changed, so been watching again since the 2012-13 season.

Football seasons are so great, like finding out there's an FA Cup/CL game you didn't realise was on that evening, makes you so happy.

I'm at the point where I'll watch almost any game that's on, it could be two mid-table teams but it could be a great game, so I watch. An example I can think of is when Everton beat Sunderland 6-2 earlier last season. Not an eye-catching fixture, but a fun game to watch.

Might start trying to get into other sports, though. Feel a bit one-dimensional, but I'm comfortable.

Every 4 years there's a great summer: Euros + Tour de France + Olympics.

2016 is one of those years! Woot!


My favourite sports events are (in this order)

-World cup football
-Euro cup football
-Olympics
-Champions League
-Europa League
-Roland Garros (tennis)
-Wimbledon (tennis)
-Tour de France
-Confederations cup (football)

For some reason I never really got on board with the whole Olympics hype. Hardly watched any of it, even when it was in the UK in London in 2012.

Just a bit meh, in my opinion. Lots of sports I care very little for.

100 metres/general track events are probably the pick of the bunch.
