Brilliant article, but it’s shameful that a person loses job opportunities because of the football team he supports.

Not much mention of the original and most quintessential sportswashers no more no less the 13 times winner Real franquistas Madrid
Course they are part of the "istreeee" cabal so therefore intouchable
Without el Generalisimo and his vile and vicious dictatorship that club would be pretty irrelevant these days as they were before Franco's coup

Worth ten minutes of anyone’s time and for those who struggle to do so, a useful resource for explaining to rival fans the error of their ways.

Factually correct

Reus scored the away goal that would have knocked us out if the game at Dortmund remained 1-0

 

[Sky Blue]

Factually correct

Nope. Said 'away goal'.

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Factually correct

Except Bellingham didn't score an away goal

 

[give it to gordon]

All this talk of sport washing it's been going on for years. In the uk we have utd and liverpool rammed down our throats every single fucking day. Utd this liverpool that. The uk press/media have been involved in sports washing for decades.
Unless it involves liverpool fans misbehaving than its ignored didnt happen.

None of them do
At half time they were discussing us trying to score but under no circumstances leave ourselves open for dortmund to score.
In theory if dortmund scored again we still only needed to score one to stay in the tie and take it to extra time. So there logic was straight out of the window

Nothing changed in the tie after they scored we still needed a goal , that was obvious.

Strange, lower level European football being covered on BBC Breakfast this morning, Champions League results didn't happen for the beeb yesterday, least we didn't have to suffer Silly Sally.
