kristapsk


All national leagues have commenced. Still very early to see a trend though Real Madrid , Barça, Arsenal, Liverpool are undefeated and have not lost any points. PSG also counts matches as wins. 

## Premier League

**Liverpool** and **Newcastle** played on Monday night to close week 2. The Reds, thanks to 16 year-old Rio Ngumoha, won the match at 10 minutes of added time in the second half. Newcastle was able to come from behind to equalize a match that they were losing 0-2 at 46 minutes of play.  Ekitike scored again for Liverpool. **Chelsea** and **Arsenal** both scored 5 goals to beat West Ham and Leeds respectively. Gyökeres, recent Arsenal’s signing, scored twice to add his first goals in the UK. Finally, **Man City** and **Tottenham** disputed the other Clash between Champions League teams. Spurs defeated 0-2 Citizens and it seems that Guardiola’s team is still struggling. 

## La Liga

Easy games for **Villarreal** and **Real Madrid** this week. They beat 5-0 and 0-3 to Girona and Oviedo, respectively. Mbappé scored twice and Vinicius, who only played 30 minutes, scored the third and assisted Mbappé to score his second goal. The Brazilian had enough time to get a yellow card and to cause some trouble to local fans who were angry after making signs that means relegation for Oviedo. 
**Barça** won the match against recently promoted Levante at the added time. **Athletic Bilbao** added a back to back win against Rayo Vallecano. **Atletico** completed another weak performance drawing 1-1 against recently promoted Elche. 

## Bundesliga

**Bayern** completed an impressive display on Friday against RB Leipzig, beating them 6-0 with a hat trick by Harry Kane. Luis Diaz, recently signed from Liverpool, scored his first goal in Germany. **Eintracht** was not far from Bayern’s performance as they beat 4-1 Werder Bremen. **Dortmund** only could draw 3-3 against St Pauli, who managed to equalize the match after Borussia had a player sent off at 85 minutes. They scored twice in the last minutes of the game. **Bayer Leverkusen** commenced the league losing against Hoffenheim (1-2), first match after Xabi Alonso’s depart to train Real Madrid. 

## Serie A
Week 1 in serie A with a stunning win by **Inter Milan** against Torino. **Napoli** and **Juventus** followed them, beating Sassuolo 0-2 and Parma 2-0, respectively. **Atalanta** only could draw 1-1 against Pisa, who recently promoted to Serie A.

## Ligue 1

**PSG** got a back to back win in week 2, against Angers, to remain at the top of French League. **Marseille** recovered from losing the first game, beating Paris FC 5-2. Finally, **Monaco** lost the match against Lille. 

## Elsewhere

European Football Leagues: Week 2 Recap

While we are waiting for the Last 16 Round to commence our pool, I will update you with the results of previous rounds. 

## Top 10 seeds

All of them went through without major issues. Sinner, Alcaraz, Zverev, Fritz, Shelton, Djokovic and de Minaur finished their matches in straight sets. Sinner was the fastest, staying in court just 98 minutes. 

## Seeded players upsets

There were just 4 upsets among the top 32 players of the tournament. Highest seeded, Medveded (13) lost against French player, Bonzi (who ranks 51 in the ATP), in 5 sets. Other top seeded player eliminated were Humbert (22), Michelsen (28) and Griekspoor (29). 

The shortest match was played among the Czech Machac and the Italian Nardi. It took Machac just 80 minutes to go back to the dressing rooms. On the opposite side, German player, Altmaier, spent almost 5 hours in court to defeat Medjedovic. His next rival, Tsisipas,  has to be very happy as it took him just over 2 hours to go through to round 2.

Just listened to episode! Great as always. I can see you look forward to starting the new season. 
Regarding the UEFA contest will include only Champions League matches and it will start mid September. This initial group phase will be very similar to last's year. I will make some changes to the second part of the season , which will start in February 2026.

Thanks @grayruby! You can send it to carresan@blink.sv

App looks great and it would be awesome we could use it!

SN’s 2025 US Open pool

I hope that Sinner recovers well from virus earlier this week.

Hahaha, it worked really well last time. 🤣

We are heading towards the 4th Grand Slam of this 2025 season and I was thinking to run another pool as we did with The Championships at Wimbledon. 

The idea would be to start at **Men’s Last 16 round** with the same format. 

+ No buy in, everyone can participate. 

+ Stackers should provide the winner for each match and number of sets that they will last. 

+ Points will be increasing from Last 16 round to the Final as it follows: 

   + Last 16 round: 1 point to guess the winner and 2 points to guess correct number of sets. 

   + Quarterfinals: 2 points to guess the winner and 4 points to guess correct number of sets. 

   + Semifinals: 4 points to guess the winner and 8 points to guess correct number of sets. 

   + Final: 8 points to guess the winner and 16 points to guess correct number of sets. 

+ The **prize will start at 2k sats** and all sats received by the posts headed with “SN's 2025 US Open Pool” will be added to the pot. Winner gets them all. 

Hope you enjoyed Wimbledon’s pool and willing to take part in this one!
