We didn't see the Barça of 1,000 passes in Newcastle. Did you see the 1,000 passes Barcelona makes every week in Spain? No. Newcastle are exceptional in their intensity and high pressing, playing man-to-man and with a wide range of tools.

Daniel Maldini was still able to experience the youth sector journey at Milan like his dad. He made his senior debut in a red and black shirt and even scored his first professional goal in a season that culminated with a Scudetto win. However, unlike Paolo, he departed for pastures new.

Well, the VAR is never going to overturn a referee's decision to give a penalty when there is contact, and there clearly was. That does not fall into the category of "clear and obvious error". However, to say it was a soft one would be an understatement.

Paris Saint-Germain had a bit more trouble separating itself from its Ligue 1 rival Monaco than predicted, but rode a 3-2 first leg win to a 5-4 aggregate victory. Newcastle demolished Qarabag, 9-3. Atlético Madrid turned a 3-3 first-leg draw around with a 4-1 second leg at home to dump out Club Brugge. Bayer Leverkusen vs. Olympiacos was a snoozer, won 2-0 on aggregate by the former.
