Last game day coming up in Bundesliga.. Hamburg - Wolfsburg is going to be just an insane match Imagine if Wolfsburg go down. I'd like to watch it but there's a law here against football matches being televised between 3-5pm on a Saturday, to protect the attendances at matches apparently. Might try and find a stream. Turns out I was talking shit and it was on TV here. What a game, 87th minute winner from Hamburg to guarantee survival. |

My next 'step' in learning more about European soccer is watching Bundesliga. A ton of the matches are on over here, and I like the Friday games since the Premier League usually isn't on. PLus it's a fun league to watch! For the first time this year I watched more Bundesleiga that BPL. The atmosphere just seems so much batter and the games are more exciting. My 6 year old loves BVB and Pulisic! I'm hoping Pulisic might be the best thing to happen to the USMNT in a while. Fingers crossed! |

Or at least some new blood that can replace Gyasi Zardes, there are 320 million people in the country and he's seriously the best we can do? |

Luckily Soccer is bigger than it ever has been in The States, if we're ever going to develop more Pulisic esq players in the youth system the time is now. In the mean time we can keep renting Germans who aren't good enough to play for Germany. |

Nice to see Ronaldo putting a stop to whatever potential slip up might take place last night inside the opening 2 mins vs Malaga  Barca nearly threw it all away as well. First league win in 5 years! |

What Zidane has done for Real is incredible..what a turnaround they've seen under him. Really exposed Luis Enrique this season.

I'm really missing the premier league in the UK now i'm living in New Zealand, but i went and watched the Southern Hemispheres version of the Champions League and it was hilarious! It was played in a park and was basically Auckland City vs Papa New Guinea and was free entry! You'd never see free entry to a Premier League or Champions League game in Europe  |

Was supposed to watch it with friends, but I switched shifts with a co-worker and now I'm working during the match. Oh well.
