"If we didn't suffer, we wouldn't be ourselves."

For @vittleslondon I wrote about Atleti's departure from the Vicente Calderón, through the medium of gallinejas and entresijos (fried lambs intestines), a very special and uniquely madrileño dish

@nqatpod Iraola has shown this consistently though. In 2020 he took a third division side to the copa del Rey semifinal for example

@sidlowe He's amazing. Obviously euro 2024 gutted me but of anyone who could have got the winner, I'm happy it was him

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@futboleslaleche Thanks very much!

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@Atleti @muhammadbutt how do you feel about Alemany from his time with you, by the way?

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@DVSANightmare @muhammadbutt There are options that are not either breaking the wage structure for Zizzo or keeping onana/altay. Eg, lammens

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@LaLigaMichael @kevvwill Nice! Where in Spain are you?

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@sajeraj Or just referring to him as a cousin without any working out

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@muhammadbutt If only that mount was there today

@muhammadbutt I'm glad you've been able to enjoy Valverde conceding 4 goals in a semi final second leg for once

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

.@icevolcanoes you have the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time in three days time

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@BrendyBoyle Eibar have quite a thing for goalies scoring, I remember Dimitrovic taking a penalty against Atleti in the 20-21 season

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@thesefootytimes Özil and his chip/bounce thing

Unexpected doppelganger found today. Tomas Roncero or Egyptian singer Farid Al Atrash

@loloutlaw La regla 14 ya tiene una sanción definida de tocar el balón después de que entra en juego (tiro libre indirecto para el otro equipo, así que aplicar el 13 es incorrecto) - pero como decís en el tuit siguiente, solo entra en juego cuando "it clearly moves"

When the tie was announced: it's fine, this game won't be able to hurt me more than other past games
The game:

[Brendan Boyle @BrendyBoyle]

Atleti inventing new, more cruel ways to lose to Real Madrid in the Champions League since 2014.

@muhammadbutt @tinscognito__ First thing it reminded me of was the 2022 cl final tbh

[Matoke enthusiast @KebAbbas]

@muhammadbutt Really quite some timing for us to have this conversation 😬
