When Villareal lined up last Tuesday, they weren't given a chance. By half time, they had more than a chance - the 2 goal deficit had been overturned and they were starting to dream. Klopp knew it and swapped out Jota for Diaz and the game changed in an instant. Liverpool did enough to not just win on aggregate, but to come back and win on the night and they'll surely be favourites going in to the final.

A final, which many predicted would be against Manchester City. Especially when on 73 minutes, Riyad Mahrez scored to put Man City 2 goals up on aggregate. But it's a familiar story now, you don't write off Real Madrid at the Bernabeu and as in the Liverpool game, it was a substitute that turned the tie. Rodrygo scoring twice in as many minutes to move momentum to Los Blancos who would go on to win in extra time. It's been a remarkable run for Real Madrid and you wouldn't put it past them to do it again in the final.

Semi Finals - 2nd Leg Winner

It was a very close Gameweek with just 4 points separating the top 5 players - captains varied with 4 different player selections and Karim Benzema proving the difference for @the-gorilla and his top score of 65 points.

Things couldn't be closer at the top going into the final. @brahmaputra and @the-gorilla are joint on points with @chenty just 10 points behind in 3rd place. A lot can change by getting the best captain selection so there's still hope for @titopx in 4th place, 12 points behind @chenty but I wonder if @jimah1k's 24 point gap to the podium is a leap too far. With the final being played on 28th May, we have a bit of time to wait before finding out.

Really an interesting one it was. The finals including me myself tip Man City to be there and even win the competition because of their previous performance and their consistency through out the season.

However the white angles caused another supernatural surprised again. As they have been doing in this season UCL as against PSG and Chelsea they added Man City. I wouldn't be surprise if another one occurs at the finals favoring the white angles.

Great competition we have got here from these members. Now that @brahmaputra and @the-gorilla are on the same points, great things is expected to happen. May the best win😅😅.

Sera difícil, justo porque solo es a 1 partido y una sola mala elección te puede dejar fuera de la pelea, no creo que sea imposible el top 3, pues hace algunas fechas estaba muchísimo más lejos.

Lo cierto es que lo intentare, a ver que sucede y sin riesgos no se conseguirán nada. Nos veremos el 28 de Mayo, saludos a todos.

Congratulations. I was here beating myself up for not captaining Rodrygo all week. What could have been 😤😭.

so there's still hope for @titopx in 4th place, 12 points behind @chenty but I wonder if @jimah1k's 24 point gap to the podium is a leap too far.

There’s no hope for @jimah1k I’ I’m afraid 😅. He’s done here 😁😂

Why the powerdown? Are you leaving Steemit?

Oh not at all. I have some financial difficulties right now. I’ll be withdrawing just the first one.

👍 I've seen a lot of people powering down lately. Including people who have been doing well in my Fantasy Sports contests. It's a shame and I'm hopeful you'll still be here next season 🙂

I’ve noticed that as well but I’m definitely going nowhere. I’ll be here to wreck more havoc 😅. If you’ve noticed you’ll realize my delegations are still intact.

Ha ha - I did notice the delegations remain... your withdrawal might move you into 10% delegation to WOX Sports territory!
