www.france24.com/en/live-news... Hello. This Saturday, I want the wackiest match you have. No, that's too wacky. My report from Leverkusen.

Will the real Leverkusen please stand up? My weekend preview. www.rfi.fr/en/sports/20...

Onion’s back.

Ok in two weeks we’ve gone from “prem teams are so unstoppable and Europe can’t keep up” to “prem just so tough how can we keep up with Europe”

Favourite son returns to do the damage

Huge (positive) reaction from the Leverkusen crowd as Havertz is subbed on.

Less than a minute into the second half and Leverkusen score against Arsenal -- from a corner...

This game needs some Patrik Schick.

Christian Kofane, playing in the Spanish 2nd div a year ago, has been great so far.

Leverkusen. Famous home of jazz.

No Havertz in the starting XI for Arsenal. Saliba makes it back though.

Guys I dont think Tottenham will win the Champions League.

www.france24.com/en/live-news... Live from Leverkusen -- Arteta says no quadruple talk (which seems totally reasonable tbh)

www.france24.com/en/live-news... Leverkusen's Kasper Hjulmand is the latest to question Arsenal's tactics this season.

www.rfi.fr/en/sports/20... After plenty of speculation, Carney Chukwuemeka is making the switch to Austria. A good call for all parties.

Was actually gonna write “licorice” but thanks for the pep talk, autocorrect

Great goal Romulo

Nartey by nature

Dortmund fans have a word or two to share

And front perspective

Yellow Wall in side perspective.

Game day

Music used to move us emotionally.

“Joe Broker” sounds a little bit too much like “go broke-r” for my liking.

Bochum fired up

lol -- what's that twin peaks meme with the 'it's happening again'? Well it's happening again. www.stern.de/gesellschaft...

www.france24.com/en/live-news... Spoke to Gregor Kobel in Dortmund yesterday about the Atalanta debacle -- and Bayern's visit on Saturday.

Update: Borussia Dortmund express their "surprise" at the "disproportionate" measures taken against their supporters en route to Bergamo, which they say are "completely incomprehensible." Full statement: www.bvb.de/de/de/aktuel...

www.france24.com/en/live-news... Bremen were set to play in Minneapolis, but pulled out saying "playing in a city where there is unrest and people have been shot does not fit with our values"

I like German headlines that work just as well in English.

Frozen Spree at night

www.rfi.fr/en/sports/20... Fool me once.... Leipzig missed the UCL once but once more would be a disaster. My preview of this weekend's Leipzig-Dortmund game.

Ah, well that’s that sorted then.

Don’t mind this at all.

Excellent stuff from Matt

Either a murderous clam on a rampage — a “clampage” as it were — or a typo. Most concerning. I’ll vote for the first party to stop the clams #stoptheclams

Word is Evangelos Marinakis offered his Olympiacos players 'record bonuses' if they beat Leverkusen. It seemed to work, for a while, until Schick happened. My match report. uk.sports.yahoo.com/news/schick-...

A “Czechoslovakian WolfDog”? We just out there making up dog names now.

Solid, controlled and drama free win from Dortmund. Not sure how long they’ll be allowed to keep doing that.
