Great Reaction. The World Cup does not start until 21st November and is continuous for one month. Manchester City's opponents Real Madrid were 170/1 to beat City in the 90 minutes to force an extra half hour and were 200/1 to qualify for The Final in a 2 horse race! Otherwise, it would be City v Liverpool and Real Madrid v Liverpool will be a great atmosphere but do you want a SENSATIONAL ATMOSPHERE? Then watch the Secondary European Final called The Europa Cup between 2 incredible sets of fans who will both fly over 100,000 fans to Seville in Spain for the Final THe Ground only holds 43,000 LOL
U picked the wrong team for the final. Real Madrid on big finals in CL is different team altogether. (UCL champs-13times) Although current RM is not strong as they used to be but they got winning DNA from CR7 and Sergio Ramos. But Liverpool have score to settle from finals 4 yrs ago. Before watching finals I would recommend u to watch highlights of 2018 CL final. Liv 1- 3 RM
@@farhaan8260 Real Madrid won that final but our goalkeeper had a concussion that was not discovered until after the game. They won fairly though. This time I'm hoping my lifelong team of Liverpool get revenge ! YNWA
30 years ago all football clubs in Spain were owned by the fans. Because of high debt almost all of them, were forced by the government to convert to registered companies. The four remain fan-owned clubs, the ones having no debt at that time, are: Osasuna, Athletic Club of Bilbao, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. You can hate the fact but that's reality, and you can find videos of full (5 hour or more) socios assemblies here in youtube with Florentino Pérez presenting and voting the accounts and the budget for the next year, and even famous electoral debates among candidates.
@@vikhyath. I think he does not hate the clubs owned by socios. However, he is not wrong that those clubs actually are not "that" owned by socios. True the club is owned by members. However the actual power of normal members in managing the club or controlling the direction of the club is not that big. The chairman and the board of directors actually control the clubs. Since there is a Spanish law stipulated that the board of directors and chairman is liable for the running loss of the club for two years or more consecutive financial loss seasons. They can be sued by the government and may need to pay for the loss. Thus only very rich guys dare to be chairman or directors. In reality a bunch of privileged very wealthy men and women are controlling those clubs. It is not as rosy as it seems. There are also a lot of problems.
The maker of this video has a classic American view of football. I'd watch European content to fully understand the beautiful game as this guy is to dismissive and doesn't really know the true history of football.
Yeah. It also really grinds my gears when americans like him say "european soccer", as if soccer was an american invention and what we have here in Europe is just a copy or a lesser version. 😠
When Americans say european soccer, they don't mean it in a bad way. Even Americans that don't know anything about the sport, know how much better it is in Europe. Almost like it is a different sport, hence why they call it european soccer.
@@module79l28 Well if you live in England and want to talk about football in Brazil you will probably say Brazilian football or football in Brazil. You arent mean towards them just specifically talking about them.
The PL bias is also pretty common in American fans of the sport, they almost exclusively watch that league and act like no other leagues exist or are worth watching which is very annoying
German coaches are really on top right now. Last 3 Champions League titels were won by german coaches. Jurgen Klopp won with Liverpool 3 years ago, Hansi Flick with Bayern 2 years ago and Thomas Tuchel won with Chelsea last year. This years Final again features a german Coach with Klopp and Liverpool . I guess that´s the point he was making.
the disrespect to Real Madrid in this video is crazy.. Real Madrid is definitely the greatest team in football history. they also have the most champions league trophies (13) which is miles ahead from their next contender bayern munich and ac milan (7).
Real Madrid are recognised by football fans as one the finest, if not the finest club side in Europe. That being said I'll be backing Liverpool because 🇬🇧 you know.👍
A very important thing about REAL MADRID team: There aren't two Real Madrid teams, the "Real" Madrid, and the "Fake" Madrid. The word "real" in Spanish has got two meanings: REAL from Reality but also REAL means ROYAL, so the correct translation would be the "Royal Madrid", that's the reason there is a Crown in the crest of the club. Greetings from Spain:)
@@ExternalInputsWell turkey want us to turkishise their country's name to suit them, rather than saying turkey because the spelling and pronunciation is much easier for English speakers than türkiye
Let me be clear, I like the dudes jokes and how he makes the videos. I don’t like how he undermines the other leagues, specially the Bundesliga (German League). I really liked your video. Keep it up
1/ By a long distance: ENGLISH League 2/ Spain 2/Italy 4 German 5/France I can not wait for Frankfurt to encounter 100,000+ fanatical Glasgow Rangers fans in Seville. They are in for an almighty shock regarding the atmosphere:)
@@Isleofskye Really looking forward for Frankfurt vs Rangers! Two traditional clubs with amazing fans that actually appreciate the opportunity of the Europa League and are giving it everything they've got.
@@Isleofskye as do clubs everywhere ..it is great watching FA cup games where lower league clubs have a great chance of winning...this is especially true here at Tranmere Rovers..
This video was made by an American so obviously it's will be bias towards the English league (Premier league). Real Madrid is the greatest club in football history, they've won more than any other club, they alone have won more champions league than all the current Premier league Clubs combined. I do agree that the English league is the most competitive league recently, but they don't have the best teams, 2 years ago Bayern won the champions league after destroying Chelsea and Tottenham (2 top 4 premier league teams at the time) Real Madrid just knocked Man city out of the champions league a week ago, and City is the best team currently in the premier league, Real Madrid is the best team in the Spanish league. Eintracht Frankfurt (placed number 12 in the German league) just knocked West Hamm (placed number 7 in the English league) out of the Europa League. Roma (placed number 7 in the Italian league) just knocked Leicester city (placed number 14 in the English league) out of the conference league
The greatness of a league is not justified by how a team dominates but the level of competitiveness between the teams to win the league. Premier league is the best because it is the hardest to win. And you're wrong about madrid having more ucl than all english clubs combined; real madrid 13 ucl, english teams 14 ucl
@@arroe8386 well the second tiers are a different case because they have a new champion every year. Only two spanish teams have won the ucl whereas five different english teams have done the same. So how many times a single team has won it does not mean it's a great league. The level of competitiveness does. That's why the premier league brings a lot more money than la liga because people want to see fierce competition.
@@mr.noodles3954 now it probably becomes the Brazilian League... The last statement obviously wasn't because of the amount of different winners, but if that's your measurement; the Premier League has the same amount of different winners as the League 1 in the last 6 years, but you guys constantly call that one the biggest farmers league of Europe
@@arroe8386 why only 6 years, why not the whole decade? I agree before the psg takeover, ligue 1 was very very competitive, but now it's the very definition of a farmers league. Its not just my logic, its everyone's opinion that a league is only good when it has a healthy competition. Its not a very complex thing to understand.
The Kyiv picture is from 2018, as the final was held there then. You should check out the walkout for the final, great performance by 2cellos. It was Liverpool vs Real Madrid then too.
"Juventus who are the Real Madrid of Italy," Im laughing so hard 🤣, they even last won the UCL in 1996, and have only 2 UCL trophies 🤣, compared to AC Milan who have 7 UCL trophies, they haven't even reached half of that 🤣
Real Madrid unlike PSG and Man City or Chelsea isn’t owned by one person. It’s owned by fans that pay monthly also known as “socios” Florentino Perez is just the president but can be voted out during elections. Real Madrid has a lot of money because of the brand that they’ve built throughout the years and not an injection of cash like the teams mentioned before did have.
RM have also benefited from some pretty shady gvt deals such as selling their parctice ground for millions to the city- and then leasing it back for peanuts.
@@JL-uq6dq clearly you have all the details on the deal to be saying these things right? You have some liability proof or some mischievous document for it? Surely right???
I’m a Real Madrid fan but this guy although I respect the video and the way in which he presented it, he got a lot wrong. Literally disregarded atletico madrid as if they are a bottom low tier team 😂
The narrator really don't know about the leagues and it is very uneducated on football when you undermine other leagues. The leagues he was bashing on for no reason have knocked english teams out in the Champions league. The champions league before the last one 4th team in french league knocked out the Premier league champions. Yes, 4th team from french league knocked out the champions of premier league. And about the spanish league, I request to check who were the champions of Europe in last 10-15 years. It's always Barcelona or Real Madrid except for a season or two when they slip up. So according to quality, Spanish league is the best league in the world. The only thing Premier league is best at is the competition and the revenue. But The english team have alwyas been beaten by the spanish teams and we will see another demonstration of that in the final. Altho I hate real madrid and want them to lose but they are gonna win. The ignorance form premier league fans are unbelievable.
Take a look at 2 stadiums in England. Tottenham in which Richard Hammond of top gear shows how it all works. Also.there's a time laps film about Wembley. It shows how it was demolished and rebuilt.
For the last decade, the spanish team is the most dominant team in europe. Literally for the last 10 years, atletico, real madrid, and barcelona reached 5 finals in the ucls especially real madrid Edit: with real madrid in the finals this year, spanish club has reached 6 finals now in the last 10 years
not only that, Real Madrid has reached 10 out of the last 12 semifinals. and the 5th in 12 years. the guy in the video undersells Real Madrid. which is simply the best team in this tournament history.
Historically, English clubs are the most successful in Europe. England has had 6 different winners of the European Cup/ Champions League. English teams won it for six years in a row, and would have won more, if not for the 5 year ban. England has had more quarter finalists than any other nation. Only Real Madrid and Barca have won it for Spain.
It was a good thing that you did the Liverpool vs. Chelsea livestream at the beginning of the season as you already have a good insight into the Liverpool players and their style of play. ⚽️😊
Pulišić is pronounced Poo-lee-sheech, cuz that's a Croatian surname Also, Florentino Pérez doesn't OWN Real Madrid, he's the club president. Spanish clubs are owned by the "Sócios", meaning fans that have a club membership and sócios can vote who the club president is, just like a nation within a country. Also, also if he thinks Lewy isn't impressive physically, he clearly didn't seen him shirtless. 21:56 This is Bayern Munich stadium, Allianz Arena
@@WKogut If it's your name, you get to decide how it's pronounced. If he pronounces it that way, that's the right way to pronounce it, and I would argue it's respectful to pronounce a name the way that person pronounces it (same goes for how locals pronounce place names, etc.).
13:01 - the "team you probably never heard of" was Spanish La Liga champions last year, so... Manchester United are more like the Tampa Bay Bucaneers since they've the same owner.
it is also a team that has recently made it to the Champions League final twice. I feel like there is a general big underestimate of the spanish league and spanish teams in the video
Liverpool have won the Champions League in 2005 and 2019, but also won the European Cup (which was the competition the Champions League evolved from) in 1977, 1978, 1981 and 1984... Back when it was called the European Cup, the only teams permitted entry were the teams that won their domestic leagues the previous season, plus the reigning European Cup holders, and the competition was a straight knockout from the beginning - no group stages like we have now. The only two teams with more European Cup/Champions League wins than Liverpool's 6 are AC Milan (7) and Real Madrid (13) - Bayern Munich share third with Liverpool on 6.
@@tupacshakour9102 Cannot agree more. That freaking Swiss system serves no good to football. It just serves UEFA's interest to increase the number of games i.e. money for them.
I own a Barcelona shirt, doesnt mean I'm a barca fan. I own a portugal shirt, doesnt mean I'm a portugal fan, I own an italy shirt, doesnt mean I'm an italy fan. You can own a shirt of anyone if they're not a rival of your own team
I am a simple girl. I see another woman wearing a Spurs top, and I click the video. Edit: plus, the new Tottenham Hotspur stadium is one of the most beautiful stadiums in the world. Well worth looking it up if you're interested in stadiums
One thing about Florentino Pérez, people usually call him Real Madrid owner and compare him to Abramovic or the Arabian sheikhs but actually he doesn't own Real Madrid. In reality both Real Madrid, Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao are controlled by its football club members and not by its presidents.
PSG and Barcelona most exciting ? hahaha, the final is between the big guns, Liverpool vs Real Madrid, everybody in the world has heard of these two :)
Yay, rooting for Liverpool SoGal! A Team from the English Top Flight with a decent history. Kudos to Real Madrid, also European Football Royalty. Should be a good game.
News Update: Chelsea has now been bought for around $4.9 bn by a consortium headed by Todd Boehly (an American). He part-owns the LA Dodgers baseball team.
I don’t think he mentions it (not finished the video yet) but there’s actually a group stage in the Champions League before the knockout games start. It’s 8 groups of 4, each team play each other twice, once at home and once away and the top 2 teams from each group go through to the knockout stages. 2 teams from the same country can’t meet in the group stages and it’s based on where you finished in your league the last season, so all the teams who finished top of their league can’t meet in the group stages either. They actually messed up the draw for the knockout stages this season as they took Man United out of the draw so they wouldn’t meet one of the other English teams (they can’t meet until the 1/4 finals) and forgot to put them back in so they had to have a redo
Fun Fact: According to his dad, Robert Lewandowski was named Robert rather than a more traditional Polish name because his father new he would be a world class footballer and wanted to make it easier for English commentators to pronounce
John Henry is actually american (I think? but his companies is.) He also owned the Boston Red Sox. He's the one who approached Oakland Athletics for their moneyball theories. My opinion on the leagues. 1. Premier League - the most competitive league, the hyped league, the peak-career league. Proven youngsters will go here for the competitive nature. Decent Champions League record. Featured 2-3 clubs consistent there with Liverpool leading the race. A lot of great managers goes here to take a bite. 2. La Liga - the endgame league especially for Americas region. Big history of stars played here. Featured 2 of the strongest club in history. Their clubs also performed well on Champions League and Europa League with Real Madrid leading. 3. Serie A - old school league. Kinda slow league. Dubbed the defensive league because they had long history of great defenders here. Decorated in Champions League. Ac Milan were strong. Right now, most of them are in rebuilding mode. Sometimes veterans on the game would go here to finish the career. 4. Bundesliga - the entry league for proven Asia players. The crop league 😂 Because Bayern will get all the talents here and more. Bayern is one of Champions League favourite every year. 5. Eredivisie - the other entry league for players all over the world. Birthed tons of talented youngsters over the years. Ajax is one of the best academies. Maybe consistent Champions League records. 6. Ligue 1 - there's PSG. One of the richest clubs in the world but personally, the dropout league. Failed players from other leagues often ended up here to restart career or just retired. Nothing impressive here except for PSGs money.
Hello, Sarah! It's always a huge pleasure to see you wearing that beautiful Tottenham jersey. This season, Spurs Women finished fifth in the Women's Super League. As for the men's team, they have played in the Champions League many times and still have a chance to qualify for next season. As if you needed any more convincing in addition to Marina, I can tell you that when it comes to famous actors, Tom Holland, Kenneth Branagh and Jude Law are all big Spurs supporters. Sir Kenneth is a season ticket holder and has his own luxurious executive box at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium from where to watch games. Since you have already reviewed that most amazing stadium in the world, any other stadia after that would only mean going downhill. This summer, Guns N’ Roses and Lady Gaga will perform at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Later in the autumn the venue will organize more NFL games. For example, the Green Bay Packers will play their first ever game outside the US there.
@Waldorf73. My manager is a Green Bay fan as he is from there. I will make sure he knows about their visit to UK, though he probably already booked tickets.
please take that ugly shirt off and put an arsenal one on instead if you choose spurs as your team then you will only be disappointed with no trophies and endless disappointments. if you decide instead choose arsenal then you're going the right way. Arsenal has the youngest team in the premier league this season and it's full of talent so within a few years Arsenal will challenge for the title again unlike the spurs who never win anything. Arsenal are the biggest team in London
@@Waldorf73 Having read Tobias' comment I am reminded that you previously told me how to spell Captain Mainwaring and of his potential response to Pike.
@@alansmithee8831 Spellings can be tricky - especially if you're a foreigner like me. I remember how dumbfounded I was when I learned that "Fanshaw" is actually spelled Featherstonehaugh. 🤣😄
If you can find them you should really watch Real Madrid's semifinals against Manchester City. Probably one of the greatest ties in the tournament's history.
Loves your videos. Pure and honest, an absolutely joy The video is very very uninformed sadly. Champions from ALL European leagues can qualify for CL. It kind of hurts when he speaks about European football as if there is only five leagues in Europe. Truth is that there is 55 continues with league systems and FAs Anyways, keep on the great work😺 Greetings from Copenhagen Forza FC København ⚪🔵⚫
Liverpool are the 3rd most successful team in the competition history winning it 6 times. They are behind AC Milan 7 and Real Madrid with an unbelievable 13. It will actually be Liverpools 3rd final in 5 years. I think it will be a close final.
Managers/Coaches from different nations are often known for certain attributes and philosophies. German coaches is often known for their direct play style and hard work, Italian coaches are known for being more defensive minded, Spanish coaches are often known for focusing more on possession and passing, English coaches are kind of all over the place but they tend to favor a more physical play style.
A note to the surprise package in this season's UCL, Villareal from Spain: They play in an all yellow kit. Hence, their nickname is Los Submarineros :)
Wrong! The team has the nickname "El submarino amarillo" ("The yellow submarine"), but nobody has ever called they "los submarineros", at least not here, in Spain.
I feel as if this video fails to mention how Real Madrid are by far the biggest club in football. They have won 13 champions leagues, whereas these other teams don’t even come close
You should react to the highlights of previous rounds from recent weeks, even if they're blurred, there were some amazing games this year! They're really easy to find on RUclips
Number of Champions League Trophies won by the Finalists: Real Madrid - 13 Liverpool - 6 2018 Champions League Final was between these two sides, Real Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1. Liverpool are the better team now, but Real Madrid just have this way of always performing in this competition, their last 3 opponents (PSG, Chelsea and Manchester City) all completely dominated Madrid over their two games home and away, but against all the odds, still beat all three and made it to the Final. NEVER underestimate Real Madrid…
John Henry heads up Fenway Sport Group that owns Boston Red Sox, Boston Globe and Liverpool FC. Liverpool are the most successful english club in the CL and one of the most successful in the cups history. Winning 6 times from 9 finals.
Tottenham Hotspurs are the greatest team of all time (despite the haters!!)! I followed your channel ish. Now I’m a devoted fan! Keep it up and keep on supporting The Mighty Spurs!! ❤️ Go Gal, So Gal!! 🍻🍻
I don't know if you have already but if you're supporting Liverpool in the final, it's worth watching the 2005 final in its entirity. Liverpool were playing AC Milan (who were probably the best team in the world at that point). I won't spoil it for you but it's known as the 'miracle of istanbul' for a good reason. Also, I'll be supporting Real Madrid so come on Los Blancos!
@@allanmanaged5285 Ha. I'm a Birmingham City fan but I follow Real in Europe and La Liga. Basically my first girlfriend supported them when we were 13 and she bought me a shirt and I've followed them ever since. Loved the galacticos era and am a CR7 fanboy as well (over Messi anyday) plus my grandparents moved near Madrid when they retired and sent me the new shirt every year.
@@joemarkham5142 That's fair enough mate, and a genuine reason to support them. I thought you might be one of the all too common LFC haters, I've never understood why they exist, not real football fans in my opinion. May the best team win.
@@allanmanaged5285 Liverpool FC's fans got English clubs banned from Europe for 5 years for killing 39 Juventus fans, so PLENTY of reason to not like them.
I feel like there is quite an underestimation of leagues and teams in the video, and the guy puts the Premier League and its teams higher than they actually are in comparison with the rest. Specially when it comes to Spain. There are also a few things that he ommits when talking about Real Madrid that I think are very important for you to know what to expect on the final (which by what he says it seems like it would be an easy Liverpool win). First of all, Real Madrid is historically the king of Europe when it comes to Champions League. They have 13 Champions League titles, which is almost double what AC Milan has (7) and that's the second team with the most titles. Liverpool is tied on third place with Bayern Munich and they have 6 Champions Leagues each. It is also important to know that these numbers are not just because Real Madrid has a very long history. In the last decade Real Madrid has won 4 Champions League titles in five years (only time that has ever happened) and three of those four titles were in consecutive years (also fist time ever). When it comes to this year's final, there is some extra spice to it because in the 2018 final the score was Real Madrid 3-1 Liverpool. Liverpool has a very strong team this year and I'm sure they'll be looking for revenge. However, you shouldn't underestimate Real Madrid as they have won the spanish league title and have proven they have a very strong team: over the elimination rounds Real Madrid has defeated Chelsea (the former champion), PSG and Manchester City (two of the favourites). So yeah, whatever happens in the final I'm pretty sure it will be a really good and competitive game. Really enjoy your videos. Best of wishes from Madrid Edit: We won the Champions League again. You just can't beat the King of Europe!
Hi, Sarah, the 2018 final was played in Kyiv so that probably explains The Road To Kyiv sign. This year final was moved from St Petersburg to Paris because of the invasion of Ukraine. Hope final goes well.
Just an aside it's stadia not stadiums as stadium is Latin. My team Birmingham City were the 1st British team to reach a European final way back in the 60's but we lost, not much chance of us emulating that any time soon though.Good to have you back.
Jajaja, soy seguidor del Real Madrid y el video es tan sesgado que me ha provocado risa. 1-Florentino Pérez no es dueño del RM, es su presidente, los dueños somos los socios. 2- Florentino Pérez no es un oligarca ni mucho menos, estudió y trabajó duro hasta llegar a convertirse en el presidente de unas de las constructoras mas grandes del mundo ACS.
John W. Henry owns the Boston Red Sox and for the last 10 years or so, owns Liverpool FC. Yup, he is an American. Manchester United is also own by another American.
Funny how that song can have two vastly different reactions with me depending on which team's fans are singing it. Liverpool and I get shivers. Celtic fans and I'm spitting hatred and venom.
Unfortunately, the video you saw was basically him talking about the premier league not what the champions league is about or it’s history! Fact, it wasn’t always called the champions league to begin with!😢
Real Madrid have been the team if the season in the champions league, they were 1-0 down to Man City with about 10 mins to go, scored 2, in 3 mins, this team knows how to come back.
"The young talent didn't pay off" 😂 my guy talked too early, the young talent Rodrygo literally became the best supersub in champions league history vs Man City, and Vinicius the young player contributed against every knockout team (Psg, Chelsea, Man city and Liverpool) like thats literally more than paid off 😂😂
5:09 Don't let media or anything/anyone dictate your choice of support. There are any number of reasons to follow a club... ethnic or religious background, political affiliation, the established culture of the club's supporters, trade union affiliation, etc. It's perfectly OK to root for an American player when he's wearing national colors, and against him if his shirt bears the wrong crest in club competition. European football leagues are like American leagues in the sense that players jump from club to club all the time. Finally, it's just fine to support an MLS club. No, our domestic league isn't as good as the best of Europe. So what? It is an entertaining enough league... and it's HERE. You don't have to wake up at 6AM to watch your team. Good enough reason for me.
@@mtk3755 CL matches are generally prime time in Europe, which means early to mid afternoon in most parts of the US. But domestic league matches often start at noon, GMT. That's 7 am in NYC, 6AM in Chicago, 5AM in Denver, and 4AM in LA. I follow Celtic FC passionately, which means a lot of early weekend mornings.
@@hastaar2161 Starting times are staggered - at least for British clubs. The most common start times for English and Scottish matches seem to be noon and 14:30 - 15:00, GMT. Noon GMT is 7:00 AM in New York, and 6:00 AM where I live. I'm a Celtic fan (order restored, League Champions, Hail Hail), and wake up very early to watch a lot of games. True, there are some games which take place in the late afternoon or evening, GMT. But, the time difference is undoubtedly a factor around which foreign fans of European clubs must plan.
You should livestream the Premier League match of Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal in a North London Derby as it will probably be the biggest one since the early 2000’s
Liverpool have produced 2 of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history, both of them being worthy of a video in their own right. In 2005 in the unlikely venue of Istanbul, they came back to beat AC Milan on penalties having been absolutely battered in the first half, in 2019 they overturned a 3-0 defecit in the semi final to knock out Barcelona en route to beating Tottenham in the final.
Just as a general rule, the top 5 leagues are: England, Spain, Italy, Germany & France (and then Portugal's & Netherland's maybe), so the top clubs of those countries are usually the ones that make it pass group stage c: PS. The Real Madrid way to the final was ridiculous, to say the least. What you heard they did vs PSG, being 2-0 down and climbing back to knock them out is LITERALLY their whole knockout stage. Its so stupidly ridiculous that sounds like a movie script. They were also 2-0 down vs Chelsea, and they ALSO came back and beat them. At semifinals, vs Man. City, guess what? they were 2-0 down AND ALSO CAME BACK. Literally in the last 2 min of the game they drew 2-2, went on extra time and won. And they did the same in the domestic league vs Sevilla who were #3 in the league. Its just ridiculous
Well, if you cant support a club just because they havent won a trophy in a certain time period, then you wouldnt be able to support 99% of clubs available.
Liverpool is actually the most succesfull english footballteam ever, by counting trofies and titles. Yes, thay have had a struggle during the 2000's cuz of recent owners almost drove them into bankruptcy (hours away), but in 2010 FSG with John Henry bought the club and since then the journey to their first PL-title in 30 years began. Now Liverpool (together with Real Madrid) is the best football team in the world, no doubts about it.
I'm loving your reactions, and no offense, I wasn't expecting to from an American, but I'm glad there's people in the US that know the world isn't a single country
You want to watch highlights of the 2019 CL it’s the greatest one I’ve seen not just because my team won but because it had everything you’d want in a tournament, you had an underdog in Ajax beating the likes of juventus and madrid, multiple shocking comebacks and so many wtf just happened moments. If I was trying to get someone into loving football that’s the tournament I’d show hands down
When talking about Real Madrid, it is simply the winningest men's football club in history, comparable to what the New York Yankees did in baseball (In Europe, sports institutions can compete in tournaments in both men's and women's branches , in addition to other sports such as basketball, handball, futsal, tennis, etc.). The record of Real Madrid as a men's football club is: - 14 European Cups (8 as Champions League) - 7 Club World Cups - 2 UEFA Cups (Today Europa League) - 4 European Super Cups - 35 Leagues of Spain - 19 Copa del Rey, from Spain - 12 Spanish Super Cups - 1 League Cup (similar to the Carling Cup) - 2 Latin Cups (Predecessor to the European Cup) - 2 Small Club World Cups (Predecessor to the Intercontinental Cup and Club World Cup) - 23 Regional and Joint Tournaments (predecessor of the League).

He didn't mention Liverpool has the best European history out of all English teams. Man City has zero history. 6 European cups (champions league), and 3 Europa cups and 4 world club cups . Man City has zero.
I would also like to mention that the teams that got in lower places in their domestic leagues play in the Europa League and Europa Conference league which are basically the same as the Champions league but for weaker teams
I asked a Rangers fan why they were totally outsung in the stadium despite their superior numbers and he said all the original 10,000 allocations went to Family Members because there was none of the intensity they have for a European night at Ibrox Park. Congratulations to Frankfurt and their amazing fans :)
Somehow I can't find a good video on youtube explaining UEFA's "playoffs", in the form of Champions League (UCL), Europa League (UEL) and Europa Conference League (UECL). A good insight in the machinery to see how everything is intertwined, would be the UEFA association coefficient ranking of national leagues and the qualifying period from the very beginning to the knockout phase of each "playoff". If you choose to go that rabbit hole, you might as well scrupulously explore the UEFA Nations League and the qualification for the Euros and World Cup
Just support my team, Millwall. They can't even get in to the premier league, let alone the champions league. This would stop the confusion and keep things simple.

As you are rooting for Liverpool in the final, watch this video for some context on what Jurgen Klopp has done for Liverpool. Before he came in, we were going through what was considered a banter era. Hadn’t won a league title since 1990. Had European success in the unforgettable 2005 champions league final, but what was missing was a league title. Then in October 2015, Klopp comes in and slowly bug surely turns the doubters to believers. The video goes in order season by season. It is a great video that shows what a legendary man he is. ruclips.net/video/Jji57n06Zhk/видео.html
I think the biggest tell is the fact that while Real Madrid have won the most European Cups/Champions league competitions. England has produced the most participants in the final and the most participants to win it. There have been nine different English teams to reach the final of the competition, only three have not won it. That includes the fact that for five years English teams were banned from the competition.
Champions League is a european tournament where the best teams play and in the end Real Madrid always win!! We have 13 of them and bout to win the 14th.. Best Club in the history , Kings of Europe!
Don’t get fan love for the ‘top’ premier league teams! You’re wearing a Tottenham jersey, WE ARE THE BEST! We just need to win more! We got to champions league final a couple of years ago. Historically. Watch ‘Tottenham vs Ajax champions league semi final’ 👍😁😁
His comments on the French league and PSG were complete nonsense and just in general a lot of things he says in these videos are false. I wouldn't suggest taking his opinions seriosuly since he definitely doesn't really know what he's talking about.
One stupid remark: I am always confused when somebody, an adult wants to choose a team to follow/support. It's impossible without roots and roots coming from your childhood in this case too but...maybe I am totaly wrong and this is valid only in my bubble :-) I never told my child (11 yo) who to cheer for but since he was five he has been there with me at almost every home game and sometimes accompanying him to away games as well. The same thing happened to me. When 3 generations support the same team together in the stands (happened couple of times), Bill Shankly's words make sense: Football is not a matter of life and death, much more....... One big mistake of this explanation that it missed the group stage. CL is not only a play-off system, before play off 32 teams of Europe are in 8 groups*, one group 4 teams each team play with the 3 others one in home and one in away which means 6 rounds (3x2 games) and the first two teams of each group will go to the play-off system. 8 groups x2 teams = 16 teams in playoffs first round than 8, 4, and the final. In the playoff teams play 2 games once at team A once at team B, and the winner (based on these 2 games) goes to next round, the final is only one game. One more thing for the groups. Based on the performance of the previous years teams are also ranked, so the best teams based on this list cannot play in the same group. The "real" CL starts with group stage, the big money starts there, teams get money from assosiaction, if you go further, if you won more times, if you score more you will get more money. But which teams can play in CL? There is a country rank of UEFA (United European Football Associaction) and based on this list the better countries can send maximum 4 teams to CL (Italy, Germany, England, Spain currently as I know) other countries can delegate less teams. In the domestic leagues it gives more interest to the teams to reach for example the 4th place because it means CL participation and opportunity to get more fun and money. *Before groups stages the are qualification games for the group stage. This qualification stage provides a small chance to reach group stages for lower ranked teams. At this qualification stage all member of the UEFA (only the champions from lower ranked countries) can participate. The big teams do not have to play in qualification stage they have reserved place in group stage. The 2022 final is just ahead us and also the next season of CL will start soon with the mentioned qualification stage :-) ps.: empty stadiums dont count, the supporters on the stand give the style to the building, it doesnt have to be "high-tech", the things happen on the pitch, if you have seat or place to watch it from inside of the stadium than you have everything.
THEY SAY THE PREMIER LEAGUE IS THE MOST SUCCESFULL IN THE LAST YEARS JUST BECAUSE THEY WON TWICE WHILE THE SPANISH LEAGUE HAS WON LIKE 13 OF THE LAST 20 CHAMPIONS, THATS PRETTY BIASED
C'monn Liverpool FC,, Bayern Munich stadium is cool was rebuilt for The 1974 and 2006 World Cup Finals used to be The BMW Stadium, check out videos for the new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium $800 m 67,000, Real Madrid New Stadium 86,000, Nu Camp Barcelona, 99,000 seated, just to fill you in John W Henry owns the Boston Red Sox, Sheik Mansur owns most of the good thorobrereed horses the good ones he's a Saudi Prince and Manchester City owner, the Champions league final was to be played in St Petersburg in Russia but moved to Stade de France in Paris..
So the guy's "PSG always lose because the French league is crap" hypothesis is fatally flawed. Bayern Munich are one of the most successful teams in Champions League/European Cup history & they play in the German league which is arguably worse than the French.
I say stick with Tottenham Hotspur. We've had notable American talent such as Kasey Keller, Clint Dempsey, Deandre Yedlin (granted he only played like 1 game for us) or Brad Friedel (who rejoined the squad as a coach after managing New England Revolution). Plus I've mentioned before, it is the Team of choice for the cast of Star Trek Next Generation with the exception of Patrick Stewart who is a Huddersfield Town supporter.

Great Reaction. The World Cup does not start until 21st November and is continuous for one month. Manchester City's opponents Real Madrid were 170/1 to beat City in the 90 minutes to force an extra half hour and were 200/1 to qualify for The Final in a 2 horse race! Otherwise, it would be City v Liverpool and Real Madrid v Liverpool will be a great atmosphere but do you want a SENSATIONAL ATMOSPHERE? Then watch the Secondary European Final called The Europa Cup between 2 incredible sets of fans who will both fly over 100,000 fans to Seville in Spain for the Final THe Ground only holds 43,000 LOL
U picked the wrong team for the final.
Real Madrid on big finals in CL is different team altogether. (UCL champs-13times)

Real Madrid isn´t owned by Florentino, its actuaally owned by the fans, Florentino is just the president that the fan chose.
People actually still believe this stuff? Lol
30 years ago all football clubs in Spain were owned by the fans. Because of high debt almost all of them, were forced by the government to convert to registered companies. The four remain fan-owned clubs, the ones having no debt at that time, are: Osasuna, Athletic Club of Bilbao, FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. You can hate the fact but that's reality, and you can find videos of full (5 hour or more) socios assemblies here in youtube with Florentino Pérez presenting and voting the accounts and the budget for the next year, and even famous electoral debates among candidates.
@@sortiztube "You can hate the fact but it's reality". Why would someone hate that those clubs are owned by socios?
@@vikhyath.mostly premiership fans having their clubs in the hands of filthy rich criminal owners
@@vikhyath. I think he does not hate the clubs owned by socios. However, he is not wrong that those clubs actually are not "that" owned by socios. True the club is owned by members. However the actual power of normal members in managing the club or controlling the direction of the club is not that big. The chairman and the board of directors actually control the clubs. Since there is a Spanish law stipulated that the board of directors and chairman is liable for the running loss of the club for two years or more consecutive financial loss seasons. They can be sued by the government and may need to pay for the loss. Thus only very rich guys dare to be chairman or directors. In reality a bunch of privileged very wealthy men and women are controlling those clubs. It is not as rosy as it seems. There are also a lot of problems.
The maker of this video has a classic American view of football. I'd watch European content to fully understand the beautiful game as this guy is to dismissive and doesn't really know the true history of football.
Yeah. It also really grinds my gears when americans like him say "european soccer", as if soccer was an american invention and what we have here in Europe is just a copy or a lesser version. 😠
When Americans say european soccer, they don't mean it in a bad way. Even Americans that don't know anything about the sport, know how much better it is in Europe. Almost like it is a different sport, hence why they call it european soccer.
@@module79l28 Well if you live in England and want to talk about football in Brazil you will probably say Brazilian football or football in Brazil. You arent mean towards them just specifically talking about them.

A very important thing about REAL MADRID team: There aren't two Real Madrid teams, the "Real" Madrid, and the "Fake" Madrid. The word "real" in Spanish has got two meanings: REAL from Reality but also REAL means ROYAL, so the correct translation would be the "Royal Madrid", that's the reason there is a Crown in the crest of the club.

This video was made by an American so obviously it's will be bias towards the English league (Premier league).
Real Madrid is the greatest club in football history, they've won more than any other club, they alone have won more champions league than all the current Premier league Clubs combined.
I do agree that the English league is the most competitive league recently, but they don't have the best teams, 2 years ago Bayern won the champions league after destroying Chelsea and Tottenham (2 top 4 premier league teams at the time)
Real Madrid just knocked Man city out of the champions league a week ago, and City is the best team currently in the premier league, Real Madrid is the best team in the Spanish league.
Eintracht Frankfurt (placed number 12 in the German league) just knocked West Hamm (placed number 7 in the English league) out of the Europa League.
Roma (placed number 7 in the Italian league) just knocked Leicester city (placed number 14 in the English league) out of the conference league
The greatness of a league is not justified by how a team dominates but the level of competitiveness between the teams to win the league. Premier league is the best because it is the hardest to win.
And you're wrong about madrid having more ucl than all english clubs combined; real madrid 13 ucl, english teams 14 ucl
@@mr.noodles3954 with your logic the 2. Bundesliga is the best league...
Edit: No, he isn't wrong. Nottingham Forest isn't in the Premier League
@@arroe8386 well the second tiers are a different case because they have a new champion every year.
Only two spanish teams have won the ucl whereas five different english teams have done the same. So how many times a single team has won it does not mean it's a great league. The level of competitiveness does. That's why the premier league brings a lot more money than la liga because people want to see fierce competition.
@@mr.noodles3954 now it probably becomes the Brazilian League...
The last statement obviously wasn't because of the amount of different winners, but if that's your measurement; the Premier League has the same amount of different winners as the League 1 in the last 6 years, but you guys constantly call that one the biggest farmers league of Europe
@@arroe8386 why only 6 years, why not the whole decade? I agree before the psg takeover, ligue 1 was very very competitive, but now it's the very definition of a farmers league.
Its not just my logic, its everyone's opinion that a league is only good when it has a healthy competition. Its not a very complex thing to understand.
The Kyiv picture is from 2018, as the final was held there then. You should check out the walkout for the final, great performance by 2cellos. It was Liverpool vs Real Madrid then too.

Real Madrid unlike PSG and Man City or Chelsea isn’t owned by one person. It’s owned by fans that pay monthly also known as “socios” Florentino Perez is just the president but can be voted out during elections. Real Madrid has a lot of money because of the brand that they’ve built throughout the years and not an injection of cash like the teams mentioned before did have.
RM have also benefited from some pretty shady gvt deals such as selling their parctice ground for millions to the city- and then leasing it back for peanuts.

The narrator really don't know about the leagues and it is very uneducated on football when you undermine other leagues. The leagues he was bashing on for no reason have knocked english teams out in the Champions league. The champions league before the last one 4th team in french league knocked out the Premier league champions. Yes, 4th team from french league knocked out the champions of premier league. And about the spanish league, I request to check who were the champions of Europe in last 10-15 years. It's always Barcelona or Real Madrid except for a season or two when they slip up. So according to quality, Spanish league is the best league in the world. The only thing Premier league is best at is the competition and the revenue. But The english team have alwyas been beaten by the spanish teams and we will see another demonstration of that in the final. Altho I hate real madrid and want them to lose but they are gonna win. The ignorance form premier league fans are unbelievable.
Actually Lyon was seventh in the league when they knocked City out

Liverpool have won the Champions League in 2005 and 2019, but also won the European Cup (which was the competition the Champions League evolved from) in 1977, 1978, 1981 and 1984...
Back when it was called the European Cup, the only teams permitted entry were the teams that won their domestic leagues the previous season, plus the reigning European Cup holders, and the competition was a straight knockout from the beginning - no group stages like we have now. The only two teams with more European Cup/Champions League wins than Liverpool's 6 are AC Milan (7) and Real Madrid (13) - Bayern Munich share third with Liverpool on 6.
The CL is the European cup but not the other way around. A bit like how the PL is the top flight but the top flight doesn't just consist of the PL.

I don’t think he mentions it (not finished the video yet) but there’s actually a group stage in the Champions League before the knockout games start. It’s 8 groups of 4, each team play each other twice, once at home and once away and the top 2 teams from each group go through to the knockout stages. 2 teams from the same country can’t meet in the group stages and it’s based on where you finished in your league the last season, so all the teams who finished top of their league can’t meet in the group stages either. They actually messed up the draw for the knockout stages this season as they took Man United out of the draw so they wouldn’t meet one of the other English teams (they can’t meet until the 1/4 finals) and forgot to put them back in so they had to have a redo

My opinion on the leagues.
1. Premier League - the most competitive league, the hyped league, the peak-career league. Proven youngsters will go here for the competitive nature. Decent Champions League record. Featured 2-3 clubs consistent there with Liverpool leading the race. A lot of great managers goes here to take a bite.
2. La Liga - the endgame league especially for Americas region. Big history of stars played here. Featured 2 of the strongest club in history. Their clubs also performed well on Champions League and Europa League with Real Madrid leading.
3. Serie A - old school league. Kinda slow league. Dubbed the defensive league because they had long history of great defenders here. Decorated in Champions League. Ac Milan were strong. Right now, most of them are in rebuilding mode. Sometimes veterans on the game would go here to finish the career.
4. Bundesliga - the entry league for proven Asia players. The crop league 😂 Because Bayern will get all the talents here and more. Bayern is one of Champions League favourite every year.
5. Eredivisie - the other entry league for players all over the world. Birthed tons of talented youngsters over the years. Ajax is one of the best academies. Maybe consistent Champions League records.
6. Ligue 1 - there's PSG. One of the richest clubs in the world but personally, the dropout league. Failed players from other leagues often ended up here to restart career or just retired. Nothing impressive here except for PSGs money.

Since you have already reviewed that most amazing stadium in the world, any other stadia after that would only mean going downhill. This summer, Guns N’ Roses and Lady Gaga will perform at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Later in the autumn the venue will organize more NFL games. For example, the Green Bay Packers will play their first ever game outside the US there.
@Waldorf73. My manager is a Green Bay fan as he is from there. I will make sure he knows about their visit to UK, though he probably already booked tickets.
@@alansmithee8831 Excellent!
please take that ugly shirt off and put an arsenal one on instead if you choose spurs as your team then you will only be disappointed with no trophies and endless disappointments. if you decide instead choose arsenal then you're going the right way. Arsenal has the youngest team in the premier league this season and it's full of talent so within a few years Arsenal will challenge for the title again unlike the spurs who never win anything. Arsenal are the biggest team in London

If you can find them you should really watch Real Madrid's semifinals against Manchester City. Probably one of the greatest ties in the tournament's history.
The first 85 mins were terrible, Real played very poorly and it wasn't a good match to watch, it just had a fantastical ending.
@@markjones127 what about the first leg?
Loves your videos. Pure and honest, an absolutely joy
The video is very very uninformed sadly. Champions from ALL European leagues can qualify for CL. It kind of hurts when he speaks about European football as if there is only five leagues in Europe. Truth is that there is 55 continues with league systems and FAs
Anyways, keep on the great work😺
Greetings from Copenhagen
Forza FC København ⚪🔵⚫
Liverpool are the 3rd most successful team in the competition history winning it 6 times. They are behind AC Milan 7 and Real Madrid with an unbelievable 13. It will actually be Liverpools 3rd final in 5 years. I think it will be a close final.
Joint 3rd
Bayern 6
This is Madrid 5th final in 9 years, they have won 4/5, one of them against Liverpool themselves
Managers/Coaches from different nations are often known for certain attributes and philosophies. German coaches is often known for their direct play style and hard work, Italian coaches are known for being more defensive minded, Spanish coaches are often known for focusing more on possession and passing, English coaches are kind of all over the place but they tend to favor a more physical play style.
english is more direct football and platying from the wings.
A note to the surprise package in this season's UCL, Villareal from Spain: They play in an all yellow kit. Hence, their nickname is Los Submarineros :)
Wrong! The team has the nickname "El submarino amarillo" ("The yellow submarine"), but nobody has ever called they "los submarineros", at least not here, in Spain.
I feel as if this video fails to mention how Real Madrid are by far the biggest club in football. They have won 13 champions leagues, whereas these other teams don’t even come close
This year's final was actually gonna be in St. Peterbursg. Now it's gonna be in Paris.
You should react to the highlights of previous rounds from recent weeks, even if they're blurred, there were some amazing games this year! They're really easy to find on RUclips
Number of Champions League Trophies won by the Finalists:
Real Madrid - 13
Liverpool - 6
2018 Champions League Final was between these two sides, Real Madrid beat Liverpool 3-1. Liverpool are the better team now, but Real Madrid just have this way of always performing in this competition, their last 3 opponents (PSG, Chelsea and Manchester City) all completely dominated Madrid over their two games home and away, but against all the odds, still beat all three and made it to the Final. NEVER underestimate Real Madrid…

Congratulations, Tottenham 3-0 Arsenal
I don't know if you have already but if you're supporting Liverpool in the final, it's worth watching the 2005 final in its entirity. Liverpool were playing AC Milan (who were probably the best team in the world at that point). I won't spoil it for you but it's known as the 'miracle of istanbul' for a good reason.
Also, I'll be supporting Real Madrid so come on Los Blancos!
Why will you support Real Madrid ?
@@allanmanaged5285 Ha. I'm a Birmingham City fan but I follow Real in Europe and La Liga. Basically my first girlfriend supported them when we were 13 and she bought me a shirt and I've followed them ever since. Loved the galacticos era and am a CR7 fanboy as well (over Messi anyday) plus my grandparents moved near Madrid when they retired and sent me the new shirt every year.
@@joemarkham5142 That's fair enough mate, and a genuine reason to support them. I thought you might be one of the all too common LFC haters, I've never understood why they exist, not real football fans in my opinion. May the best team win.
@@allanmanaged5285 Liverpool FC's fans got English clubs banned from Europe for 5 years for killing 39 Juventus fans, so PLENTY of reason to not like them.
@@handsolo1209 I don't mind you disliking those fans but why dislike the present day fans and the team ? They had nothing to do with it.
I feel like there is quite an underestimation of leagues and teams in the video, and the guy puts the Premier League and its teams higher than they actually are in comparison with the rest. Specially when it comes to Spain. There are also a few things that he ommits when talking about Real Madrid that I think are very important for you to know what to expect on the final (which by what he says it seems like it would be an easy Liverpool win).
First of all, Real Madrid is historically the king of Europe when it comes to Champions League. They have 13 Champions League titles, which is almost double what AC Milan has (7) and that's the second team with the most titles. Liverpool is tied on third place with Bayern Munich and they have 6 Champions Leagues each. It is also important to know that these numbers are not just because Real Madrid has a very long history. In the last decade Real Madrid has won 4 Champions League titles in five years (only time that has ever happened) and three of those four titles were in consecutive years (also fist time ever).
When it comes to this year's final, there is some extra spice to it because in the 2018 final the score was Real Madrid 3-1 Liverpool. Liverpool has a very strong team this year and I'm sure they'll be looking for revenge. However, you shouldn't underestimate Real Madrid as they have won the spanish league title and have proven they have a very strong team: over the elimination rounds Real Madrid has defeated Chelsea (the former champion), PSG and Manchester City (two of the favourites).
So yeah, whatever happens in the final I'm pretty sure it will be a really good and competitive game.
Really enjoy your videos. Best of wishes from Madrid
Edit: We won the Champions League again. You just can't beat the King of Europe!
Hi, Sarah, the 2018 final was played in Kyiv so that probably explains The Road To Kyiv sign. This year final was moved from St Petersburg to Paris because of the invasion of Ukraine. Hope final goes well.
between 2009 to 2018 Spanish teams won 8 times in 10 years: Barcelona 2009,2011,2015, Real Madrid 2014,2016,2017,2018 , So Spanish league is the best.
hearing a united fan describe supporting liverpool as being basic is absolutely hilarious. have fun down there in mid table united lol
Nothing basic about Liverpool whatsoever. Rich rich history, tradition, passion etc.
Man City are basic.
Just an aside it's stadia not stadiums as stadium is Latin. My team Birmingham City were the 1st British team to reach a European final way back in the 60's but we lost, not much chance of us emulating that any time soon though.Good to have you back.
And stadia is greek
Wow. Tottenham Hotspur! Come on you Spurs! Been a fan since I was 8 in 1981. You are really beautiful, and this shirt so suits you.
Jajaja, soy seguidor del Real Madrid y el video es tan sesgado que me ha provocado risa. 1-Florentino Pérez no es dueño del RM, es su presidente, los dueños somos los socios. 2- Florentino Pérez no es un oligarca ni mucho menos, estudió y trabajó duro hasta llegar a convertirse en el presidente de unas de las constructoras mas grandes del mundo ACS.

Real Madrid have been the team if the season in the champions league, they were 1-0 down to Man City with about 10 mins to go, scored 2, in 3 mins, this team knows how to come back.
But if they lose the final they will officially be the worst finalist ever with 5 defeats in a campaign.
"The young talent didn't pay off" 😂 my guy talked too early, the young talent Rodrygo literally became the best supersub in champions league history vs Man City, and Vinicius the young player contributed against every knockout team (Psg, Chelsea, Man city and Liverpool) like thats literally more than paid off 😂😂

Don't let media or anything/anyone dictate your choice of support. There are any number of reasons to follow a club... ethnic or religious background, political affiliation, the established culture of the club's supporters, trade union affiliation, etc.
It's perfectly OK to root for an American player when he's wearing national colors, and against him if his shirt bears the wrong crest in club competition. European football leagues are like American leagues in the sense that players jump from club to club all the time.
Finally, it's just fine to support an MLS club. No, our domestic league isn't as good as the best of Europe. So what? It is an entertaining enough league... and it's HERE. You don't have to wake up at 6AM to watch your team. Good enough reason for me.
6am? I thought champions leagues comes at 3pm in us?
@@mtk3755
CL matches are generally prime time in Europe, which means early to mid afternoon in most parts of the US. But domestic league matches often start at noon, GMT. That's 7 am in NYC, 6AM in Chicago, 5AM in Denver, and 4AM in LA.
I follow Celtic FC passionately, which means a lot of early weekend mornings.
@@kentgrady9226 in the top 5 leagues most league games are 9pm-3pm U.S so I think it's daylight time
@@hastaar2161
Starting times are staggered - at least for British clubs. The most common start times for English and Scottish matches seem to be noon and 14:30 - 15:00, GMT. Noon GMT is 7:00 AM in New York, and 6:00 AM where I live.
I'm a Celtic fan (order restored, League Champions, Hail Hail), and wake up very early to watch a lot of games.
True, there are some games which take place in the late afternoon or evening, GMT. But, the time difference is undoubtedly a factor around which foreign fans of European clubs must plan.
The structure of MLS sucks, too many teams and they keep on adding new ones just by paying for it and no merit
You should livestream the Premier League match of Tottenham Hotspur vs Arsenal in a North London Derby as it will probably be the biggest one since the early 2000’s
Liverpool have produced 2 of the greatest comebacks in Champions League history, both of them being worthy of a video in their own right. In 2005 in the unlikely venue of Istanbul, they came back to beat AC Milan on penalties having been absolutely battered in the first half, in 2019 they overturned a 3-0 defecit in the semi final to knock out Barcelona en route to beating Tottenham in the final.
Just as a general rule, the top 5 leagues are: England, Spain, Italy, Germany & France (and then Portugal's & Netherland's maybe), so the top clubs of those countries are usually the ones that make it pass group stage c:
PS. The Real Madrid way to the final was ridiculous, to say the least. What you heard they did vs PSG, being 2-0 down and climbing back to knock them out is LITERALLY their whole knockout stage. Its so stupidly ridiculous that sounds like a movie script. They were also 2-0 down vs Chelsea, and they ALSO came back and beat them. At semifinals, vs Man. City, guess what? they were 2-0 down AND ALSO CAME BACK. Literally in the last 2 min of the game they drew 2-2, went on extra time and won. And they did the same in the domestic league vs Sevilla who were #3 in the league. Its just ridiculous
I don't know what you watched, but those weren't the scores
@@kingdomloco You can google them and find them

Liverpool is actually the most succesfull english footballteam ever, by counting trofies and titles. Yes, thay have had a struggle during the 2000's cuz of recent owners almost drove them into bankruptcy (hours away), but in 2010 FSG with John Henry bought the club and since then the journey to their first PL-title in 30 years began. Now Liverpool (together with Real Madrid) is the best football team in the world, no doubts about it.
Love the shirt!
I'm loving your reactions, and no offense, I wasn't expecting to from an American, but I'm glad there's people in the US that know the world isn't a single country
You want to watch highlights of the 2019 CL it’s the greatest one I’ve seen not just because my team won but because it had everything you’d want in a tournament, you had an underdog in Ajax beating the likes of juventus and madrid, multiple shocking comebacks and so many wtf just happened moments. If I was trying to get someone into loving football that’s the tournament I’d show hands down
When talking about Real Madrid, it is simply the winningest men's football club in history, comparable to what the New York Yankees did in baseball (In Europe, sports institutions can compete in tournaments in both men's and women's branches , in addition to other sports such as basketball, handball, futsal, tennis, etc.).
The record of Real Madrid as a men's football club is:
- 14 European Cups (8 as Champions League)
- 7 Club World Cups
- 2 UEFA Cups (Today Europa League)
- 4 European Super Cups
- 35 Leagues of Spain
- 19 Copa del Rey, from Spain
- 12 Spanish Super Cups
- 1 League Cup (similar to the Carling Cup)
- 2 Latin Cups (Predecessor to the European Cup)
- 2 Small Club World Cups (Predecessor to the Intercontinental Cup and Club World Cup)
- 23 Regional and Joint Tournaments (predecessor of the League).

Yeah you should do a reaction to Real Madrid, they have such a storied history with the most champions league wins at 13.
That video was a disservice to the CL and its history.
He didn't mention Liverpool has the best European history out of all English teams. Man City has zero history.
6 European cups (champions league), and 3 Europa cups and 4 world club cups . Man City has zero.
Man City have 1 european title mate, at the FFP courts
Man City won a European trophy 3 years before Liverpool did.
They've won cup winners cup
You know it’s gonna be good when the video is about champions league and she’s wearing a Tottenham shirt
I would also like to mention that the teams that got in lower places in their domestic leagues play in the Europa League and Europa Conference league which are basically the same as the Champions league but for weaker teams
I asked a Rangers fan why they were totally outsung in the stadium despite their superior numbers and he said all the original 10,000 allocations went to Family Members because there was none of the intensity they have for a European night at Ibrox Park.
Congratulations to Frankfurt and their amazing fans :)
Somehow I can't find a good video on youtube explaining UEFA's "playoffs", in the form of Champions League (UCL), Europa League (UEL) and Europa Conference League (UECL). A good insight in the machinery to see how everything is intertwined, would be the UEFA association coefficient ranking of national leagues and the qualifying period from the very beginning to the knockout phase of each "playoff".
If you choose to go that rabbit hole, you might as well scrupulously explore the UEFA Nations League and the qualification for the Euros and World Cup
Just support my team, Millwall. They can't even get in to the premier league, let alone the champions league. This would stop the confusion and keep things simple.

As you are rooting for Liverpool in the final, watch this video for some context on what Jurgen Klopp has done for Liverpool. Before he came in, we were going through what was considered a banter era. Hadn’t won a league title since 1990. Had European success in the unforgettable 2005 champions league final, but what was missing was a league title. Then in October 2015, Klopp comes in and slowly bug surely turns the doubters to believers. The video goes in order season by season. It is a great video that shows what a legendary man he is.
ruclips.net/video/Jji57n06Zhk/видео.html
Yeah, Klopp and Liverpool is a great story.
But,you'll be the same sh.t when he leaves.
I think the biggest tell is the fact that while Real Madrid have won the most European Cups/Champions league competitions. England has produced the most participants in the final and the most participants to win it. There have been nine different English teams to reach the final of the competition, only three have not won it. That includes the fact that for five years English teams were banned from the competition.
Don't go chasing front runners with questionable owners like ManCiteh, PSG, Chelsea. Stick with Tottenham. It will build your character.
Champions League is a european tournament where the best teams play and in the end Real Madrid always win!! We have 13 of them and bout to win the 14th.. Best Club in the history , Kings of Europe!
Don’t get fan love for the ‘top’ premier league teams! You’re wearing a Tottenham jersey, WE ARE THE BEST! We just need to win more! We got to champions league final a couple of years ago. Historically. Watch ‘Tottenham vs Ajax champions league semi final’ 👍😁😁
Love your channel, respect from Santos 🇧🇷
His comments on the French league and PSG were complete nonsense and just in general a lot of things he says in these videos are false. I wouldn't suggest taking his opinions seriosuly since he definitely doesn't really know what he's talking about.

SoGal Spurs:
One stupid remark: I am always confused when somebody, an adult wants to choose a team to follow/support. It's impossible without roots and roots coming from your childhood in this case too but...maybe I am totaly wrong and this is valid only in my bubble :-)
I never told my child (11 yo) who to cheer for but since he was five he has been there with me at almost every home game and sometimes accompanying him to away games as well. The same thing happened to me.
When 3 generations support the same team together in the stands (happened couple of times), Bill Shankly's words make sense: Football is not a matter of life and death, much more.......
One big mistake of this explanation that it missed the group stage. CL is not only a play-off system, before play off 32 teams of Europe are in 8 groups*, one group 4 teams each team play with the 3 others one in home and one in away which means 6 rounds (3x2 games) and the first two teams of each group will go to the play-off system. 8 groups x2 teams = 16 teams in playoffs first round than 8, 4, and the final. In the playoff teams play 2 games once at team A once at team B, and the winner (based on these 2 games) goes to next round, the final is only one game. One more thing for the groups. Based on the performance of the previous years teams are also ranked, so the best teams based on this list cannot play in the same group. The "real" CL starts with group stage, the big money starts there, teams get money from assosiaction, if you go further, if you won more times, if you score more you will get more money.
But which teams can play in CL? There is a country rank of UEFA (United European Football Associaction) and based on this list the better countries can send maximum 4 teams to CL (Italy, Germany, England, Spain currently as I know) other countries can delegate less teams. In the domestic leagues it gives more interest to the teams to reach for example the 4th place because it means CL participation and opportunity to get more fun and money.
*Before groups stages the are qualification games for the group stage. This qualification stage provides a small chance to reach group stages for lower ranked teams. At this qualification stage all member of the UEFA (only the champions from lower ranked countries) can participate. The big teams do not have to play in qualification stage they have reserved place in group stage.
The 2022 final is just ahead us and also the next season of CL will start soon with the mentioned qualification stage :-)
ps.: empty stadiums dont count, the supporters on the stand give the style to the building, it doesnt have to be "high-tech", the things happen on the pitch, if you have seat or place to watch it from inside of the stadium than you have everything.
the Champions League is a competition played by the best teams in Europe and almost always won by Real Madrid

So the guy's "PSG always lose because the French league is crap" hypothesis is fatally flawed. Bayern Munich are one of the most successful teams in Champions League/European Cup history & they play in the German league which is arguably worse than the French.
Except that Bayern's domination of the Bundesliga is a more recent phenomenon than their European success.
Yeah plus man city who dominate the best league in europe struggle like psg every year in champions league lol. So his argument is stupid..
I say stick with Tottenham Hotspur. We've had notable American talent such as Kasey Keller, Clint Dempsey, Deandre Yedlin (granted he only played like 1 game for us) or Brad Friedel (who rejoined the squad as a coach after managing New England Revolution).
