I think after all that complaining by Bayern post HSV, Hoffenheim just never had a chance today.
Both penalties are a travesty. Even worse, this is all happening in front of a global audience.
It’s a terrible look for refereeing and German football.

Well can turn that game off. Atrocious red card and penalty decision.

It is astonishing how Dortmund have stumbled back into this title race.
The difference today was Amoura incapable of scoring. But Dortmund won’t care, they are now within three points.
Also Bayern have shown some real weaknesses in the second half.
Despite all that, still a long shot for BVB.

I have had MLS executives tell me they have turned down offers from Brazil because teams that have done business down there in the past haven’t been paid.
This is just one example.

Atlanta United has reached a settlement w/Botofogo on the transfer of Thiago Almada. Though it sounds less like a settlement and more like total victory. #ATLUTD.
Atlanta's statement says, "Botafogo will pay the full transfer fee, plus interest, under the terms of this settlement."

🚨 Hansi Flick on Deco: “I’m very happy with this situation. We trust and believe in ourselves. We’re looking for the same players”. "We have the same philosophy, and it allows us to work, which is the most important thing. I’ve never had anything like this”.

BC Premier David Eby was on CKNW’s
Jas Johal Show today talking #VWFC
Is this short-term deal a “little step” that’s genuinely enough to keep the #Whitecaps in Vancouver long term or is this about buying time here?
