Ep. 42: LASK Roll, Milan Go Top, Stamford Bridge Drama & Euro Round-Up

Recorded on a business trip in a Vienna hotel room, this fast-paced Football Talk episode breaks down another dramatic weekend across Europe.We start in the Austrian Bundesliga, where LASK make it six wins in a row with a massive 3–0 at Rapid Vienna — who just sacked their coach. Salzburg drop points in Altach (with a penalty shout ignored), Blau-Weiß Linz lose their relegation duel and also fire their coach, and suddenly LASK are one point from the top… but I’m still avoiding the “C-word” (championship!).In Serie A, Milan go top with a gritty 1–0 win over Lazio thanks to a beautiful team goal finished by Leão. A late handball controversy around Pavlović had everyone talking, but the no-penalty decision felt right to me. Roma lose at home to a revitalized Napoli, Fiorentina look in deep trouble, and tensions are rising among their supporters.Then to the Premier League, where Arsenal and Chelsea draw 1–1 in a statement performance from ten-man Chelsea. City nearly bottle a 2–0 lead against Leeds but win late through Phil Foden. Liverpool finally get a win (without Salah), and Crystal Palace suffer another loss, with coach Oliver Klaassen clearly unhappy.We finish with a quick tour through France, Germany, and Spain:– PSG surprisingly lose at Monaco– Marseille miss the chance to go top as Toulouse equalize late– Bayern hang on to their win against St. Pauli– Barcelona beat Alavés, Real Madrid drop points to Girona– Atlético look like they might just re-enter the title raceA short roundup of the upcoming midweek action closes the episode.Use this RSS Link to never miss an episode in your favorite podcast app: https://anchor.fm/s/f9d49078/podcast/rss You can also find me on YouTube: @MySoccerUniverseFootballTalk Also, check out my main Youtube channel @MySoccerUniverse If you want to hear my takes on the Austrian Bundesliga in general, and my team LASK in particular and understand German, you can subscribe to my other podcast, too: @MeinLASKUniversum or https://anchor.fm/s/107a5b448/podcast/rss Recorded on a business trip in a Vienna hotel room, this fast-paced Football Talk episode breaks down another dramatic weekend across Europe.We start in the Austrian Bundesliga, where LASK make it six wins in a row with a massive 3–0 at Rapid Vienna — who just sacked their coach.
