I didn't get what you mean by road to tier1 player reward??

it is off-topic, related to sorare game, as per points earned per round
in a league (D4 global) where I set my best team (that includes Maximiano), this week top 54th positions earn tier1 player (which is a good player, that is a usual started, but not a star, valued at $300-$600 or more if from best clubs), and between 54th to 200th is tier2 player (not a starter, but usually a substitute (valued between $100-$300), while between 201 and 600th is tier3 player (substitute/reserve, valued between $60-$100)

with clean sheet for Maximiano, I would enter top50 (and get tier1), and without it will be around 200, probably tier3 - almost same situation as last Monday, where Barca scored in last minutes, to deny clean sheet for Maximiano, and I end up 205th position, instead getting tier2

saying that Aspas missed penalty is diminishing Maximiano effort to save his goal, and that was a great save for him
with that penalty saved by Maximiano, I was on a road to tier1 player reward on sorare, but Celta scored in overtime, and send me back to tier3 reward, which is also good, but tier1 would be much better

Sorry I didn't mean to do that, I was just highlighting how difficult it is for Aspas to get back to his scoring ways, and that missing a penalty (or getting it saved if we want to credit Maximiano) is only going to affect his psychology more.

Granada and Celta Vigo both are playing way out of their usual form, even Aspas missed a penalty so he must be so angry at himself.

nevertheless, great play by Luis last night, can't wait to see him on Portugal national team goal

overall, shitty round in the pool, but had Celta to win, which brings slam point as well

I think that crypto business sponsorship in sports already become such regular thing that I'm not even surprised about it anymore. Besides all crypto sportsbooks, most frequently I see Crypto.com and Bitci.com ads. And as you said, it's not just football, it's also F1, UFC, basketball and other sports.
Yeah, Monday's game wasn't most exciting, but Celta managed to win after very late Denis Suarez goal. While Granada have very poor start of season, maybe not as bad as Getafe, but still very poor. And just last season they played solid both in La Liga and Europa league...

Crypto.com is an exchange I've always thought was a scam actually, but they seem to have overcome their old problems (they were called Monaco when they did their ICO and man they were like a big scam like every other project). But they bought crypto.com domain, and rebranded and all the old Monaco nonsense faded away. I believe they are one of the most successful forgotten scams in crypto, now they even got American basketball sponsorship!

Just watching Celta game and I saw another bitcoin connected service marketing on the pitch. I believe it was called bit2me. Crypto projects have started targeting sports sponsorships more and more. It all started with Sportsbet - Watford deal, and now just one season later we already have many more. It is also spreading on other sports as well.

Quite boring game by the way, switching back to PL

I will just bet against Barcelona today as this team really doesn't deserve to be on the podium right now as they produce almost 0 football but you can't blame them when this team worked in a system where Messi was vital piece for success.

Levante never had love for Barcelona as they have some friendship with Real Madrid so I'm expecting full force from Levante in order to secure at least a draw.

I fully agree with you and yes we won 3 goals to none yesterday but you are still correct. Is it ironic we didn't have Koeman at the game and they played better? I know it's only Levante but it has been a long wait of 10 months for our boy Ansu Fati to come back and play. Honestly at the point we are at now I was just happy to have him back.

And I'd also agree with your paragraph too, they should just let Koeman go already... It's not all hopes lost for the club tbh, Aguero would surely form quite an attacking threat with Fati and Depay, and Coutihno wasn't bad today too, keeping these players fit would just be the major hurdle imo.

Aguero I think a great finisher but he still needs the supply lines and this is when I hope Countinho finds his form and magic that we paid him for.

Ansu Fati returning to field was another positive thing to take home, he looked as though he's not been out for almost year without football.

Not the best week for me, so many upsets and unexpected results left me with just 4.5 points so far.
Week started with strange results but then continued with rather expected ones. It is looking significantly better for most of us after Barca, Sociedad and Rayo wins. Too bad I did not manage to snatch at least one more correct score from these three matches.

I am gonna be a little toxic and say Barca won this easy because Koeman was not on the bench Smiley Fati returning should help them significantly in the attack. Not cool to depend on Depay so much, especially since he just came to the club. Looking forward to see how Aguero looks on pitch after he finally gets back from injury.

Yes, the week is getting to a really interesting end for me quite unbelievably , I've been able to rack points from the last 3 games and I really could have easily snatched 3 points from at least 2 of them though, but seem Betis is going to hand me what would be my second exact point of the round, but I'm a bit about the 7 additional minutes being given in the games even though it's understandable due to series of injuries interruptions.

And I'd also agree with your paragraph too, they should just let Koeman go already... It's not all hopes lost for the club tbh, Aguero would surely form quite an attacking threat with Fati and Depay, and Coutihno wasn't bad today too, keeping these players fit would just be the major hurdle imo.

first spoon for me, as it looks at the moment, Rayo win is far from expected from my side, they are on fire certainly, but that will probably stop, since I do not see them this good
was outside whole day, so did not watched football at all, but Barca win and all comments looks that they were really confident in their play

left tonight is Betis, and almost all contestant in the pool agree about home, it is just goal matters, where nobody expects a lot, will be interesting to see Getafe win

No Koeman in the game - easy win. Coincidence? Maybe Cheesy. But seriously, this game left only positive emotions. Confident win and we completely dominated like good old times. Return of Ansu Fati after almost year without football and he even scored a goal today. It was very emotional moment for him and his family.
And I'm a bit surprised that most of pool players are still backing Barca after few por performance, even Madridistas are doing it Cheesy.
@Harkorede, it's probably worst week for me in all 3 pools combined, but today's Barca, Rayo and Real Sociedad wins will bring me some points and also money in betting. I also need Betis win later today.

A really more promising and positive day for Barcelona, they ran over Levante like it was no big deal, the easiest game Barcelona has played so far this season.

Ok. Probably next time when I bet against Barcelona they will play against a better team than Levante who simply stood no chance today. However, it seems to be all honey and sweetness in Barcelona squad but I do fear that as some point they will get bad results ...maybe in a row.

Now all I have to do is to wait Betis and pray for a Draw.

@tomahawk9 @slaman29 @Trofo Yeah, that was what I call a good day for Barca (and Sevilla), everyone slipping up and precious points collected. As I said, there can't be any real hope for Barca to fight for anything more than a top 4 finish, but it's interesting to everyone as neutrals to keep the race on the table look as close as possible, for as long as possible.

Only two games snagging points for me so far with Sevilla and Barca (assuming score stays like this the rest of the game), hahay the big winner on this week of upsets!

It's one of those matchweeks where all the stars align, title contenders drop points except for Barca who win their game and the result boosts their confidence ahead of a few tough fixtures (Benfica, Atletico, Valencia)...I predicted 2-1 home win  Lips sealed
I am also thinking this the moment Barca must use to get their season back on track. All competitors dropping points (except Sevilla) and they have a home match against opponent who is nothing special.

What is the deal with Koeman? I was just reading yesterday that they agreed everything with Martinez and that he will take over Barca after national league final but then again I was not able to confirm that news so I am thinking just speculation.

Only followed Real-Villareal until HT, but yeah, it looked like an extremely dull encounter
What a frustrating match. Lack of ideas from Ancelotti, some RM players looked gassed, Villareal solid in the defence and even looked threatening on the attack...it just wasn't our day

Well, Real lost the momentum (5W in a row), but hopefully they'll get it back after the mid week game in the CL

Atletico lose, Real draw, normally this would be a nice day for us Barca fans right?

Atletico lose, Real draw, normally this would be a nice day for us Barca fans right? But I think the only one smiling now is Sevilla, who seem to be slowly finding a way up. I really wish them luck.

No manager on our match today and again on normal times, nothing for us to be concerned about but we're so fragile now I think even Levante is frightening for us Smiley

I will just bet against Barcelona today as this team really doesn't deserve to be on the podium right now as they produce almost 0 football but you can't blame them when this team worked in a system where Messi was vital piece for success.

I don't know, maybe it's only for me, but it feels like Atletico have to lose against complete underdog every season, and often it happens when they're in good rhytm. But this lose was something, I don't even know how to call it. Alaves were more than awful until this game - 0 points in 5 rounds with just 1 goal scored. Interesting stat that both teams today made just 2 shot on target combined.
Didn't watched Real - Villarreal game in full, but seems that it wasn't most exciting game and I didn't missed much.
And mate, I doubt that you would find many Barca fans who can see team fighting for title this season. Personally, I will be happy if we will finish in Champions league spot - it won't be easy with such performance.

Only followed Real-Villareal until HT, but yeah, it looked like an extremely dull encounter, didn't even have as many cards to spruce up the game (and yeah I lost Blackjack too, and a Real win + Under 3.5 goals bet). Annoying weekend, and one of the worst as I kept adding to my bets and many games ended up in draws.

Barca: yeah. Loved them and their style, philosophy, whatever you want to call it. But they don't even seem to have that anymore. Only good news I've read now is Fati's back. I will never forget that boy and wish him all the best!

Well, it had to happen, didn't it? I thought Getafe would do it last week but it was the other bottom team who did, and now the path is clear for Real Madrid to win their game in hand and put themselves in the driving seat for La Liga. I think their momentum should carry them all the way through, the way it's going. And the Madrid clubs only meet in mid-December, so there's plenty of time to put even more distance between themselves.

And yes, I'm totally discounting Barca from the race.
