The Champions League finalists were decided this week and it’s Real Madrid v Liverpool! A hatful of goals were scored over the semi-finals and there will be more on the 26th May in Kiev when these two teams meet. We look at the semi-final games in our review section and also talk about some football language based on questions from Dave and Amadeu in Brazil a€“ a€˜draw the stinga€™, a€˜sit backa€™ and a€˜fire blanksa€™ all feature. There’s a little chat about a new book by Tom Williams – Do You Speak Football – and we’ll look at games from the Premier League in our predictions section, including Chelsea v Liverpool and the Women’s FA Cup in England between Arsenal and Chelsea.
