So I think Hearts can effectively wrap up the Scottish Prem this weekend if they beat Motherwell Saturday and Rangers win the Old Firm Derby Sunday. Of course, it also depends on the sorting rules which I'm not too familiar with. But for sure if they win Saturday, then beat Falkirk next Wednesday, we'll finally have a new Scottish Champion for the first time in 41 fucking years. But again, it all hinges on Celtic losing Sunday.

First time in a long time I think I can skip the Champions League final without FOMO.

Emery is a magician at clubs that operate on the fringes of Champions League spots.

My math might be off, but if I did the math right (American decimal points, sorry):
If Freiburg lose tomorrow, it's over. Spain gets an extra CL spot and Germany gets 4+2+1.

Freiburg winning tomorrow with Rayo Vallenco losing, would put Germany ahead (I think) by 0.004. With no more teams in competition for Spain, Germany would claim #2 in league coefficient and thus the extra CL spot. Freiburg then winning the Europa League would give them an automatic Champions spot and... I don't know if someone else gets their (potentially) Europa or Conference spot. I think it goes to the next highest qualifying winner of one of the smaller leagues, but I can't find that info on a search.

If both Freiburg and Rayo Vallenco (the last Spanish team competing in Europe, in Conference) win, the gap closes 0.31 (from difference of 0.42 today - Bayern losing didn't do anything). Freiburg would then have to win the Europa final, and Rayo Vallenco would have to lose the Conference final, for Germany to overtake. If both win out, I think the coefficients end up at 22.41 for Spain and 22.21 for Germany.

Edited: my math was shit, did the work on the edit.

My math was off, and Spain clench with Rayo Vallencano's place in the finals. Womp womp für Deutschland.

Yesterday for Libertadores, Independiente de Medellín hosted Flamengo and the match had to be stopped with barely a couple of minutes in because the Independiente barras went to the stadium to cause a huge ruckus in the stands in protest of the team's bad performances and the board of directors' mismanagement and open disdain against the club's fans.
