Battles for qualification, triumphs and embarrassments, and storylines galore - Europa league is finalized in Matchweek 8!

We were treated to our first Europa League Phase conclusion, and it certainly did not disappoint. Almost every club had something to play for, with both the knockout qualification spots and many of the Top 8 byes still in play. We cover each match, its effect on the table, and take you through the drama of the final moments which decided who made the knockout rounds and who was left out in the cold. Then we take a look ahead to the bracket, take a dip in David's coefficient corner, and speculate whether Americans like this new UCL/UEL/UECL format more than Europeans. Cheers to Joseph Oosting!
