Premier League
Liverpool 1 - 1 Manchester United
Went as how I expected. Mourinho parked the bus, gum up the works, etc
I knew you were trouble when you walked in, black cat
Klopp and Mourinho share a warm embrace at the beginning
The action on the field was... well, like I said, I knew Mourinho was going to gum up the works. Wasn't surprised that there was a 4-4-3 formation
Karius looked a bit tetchy, tbh
Oyyyyy, Sturridge
David De Gea got MOTM

Serie A
Palmero 1- 4 Torino
I watched this match this morning (insomnia, yayyyyy!). Joe Hart's communication is improving game by game. But sometimes Torino's defenders seem out to lunch, because...
Ljajic scored two goals, and with this, Torino are now in 4th place as in, amongst CL places in Serie A! Joe Hart might be tempted to stay, after all (if Torino gets into CL)
It's nice to see that Kappa kit still exists. It used to be popular in my neck of the woods as a girl, before PUMA set in.
