St Johnstone

Eskişehirspor-St Johnstone. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GfTGovAIKao

St Johnstone came to Eskişehir for a match in 2013, and from the video I see they have very friendly relations. [:)]

In the next match in Scotland both supporters in the same bus to a stadium.

aye, Perth is a small town on the south edge of the Highlands and the team and supporters are relaxed and friendly, so it should be a pleasant experience.

Then there was the communal singing between the two sets of supporters.

Which makes me once more wonder if FFP is really a thing. Chelsea, PSG and City dodges stuff others do not.
Either FIFA needs to stump down on FFP, or abandon it I suppose, as right now it is a joke.

Mo Salah scored in his 5th season opening in a row, a record for the PL.
Liverpool is now also the 2nd team in the English league system to have scored 8000 goals.

To start with a win is always nice, especially against a weaker team (sorry Norwich fans).

Italy-Bulgaria 1-1

Italy is always at her worst in September, due to the late start of the Summer holidays for the players. Still, there was also a lot of unluck. Bulgaria scored on the only serious attempt they made while Italy wasn't able to finalise, among other things, 10-0 corner kicks (another indicator of how the game went).

Pity, because Italy, while still not firing all the cylinders, totally dominated the game. But Bulgaria erected a wall and was able to keep it up. Kudos to them.
