It's still quite warm in Madrid this time of year. Would you be donning a nice frock with hairy legs? I wouldn't.

Arsenal looks like they're going to get a rowdy bunch of Germans visiting the Emirates tonight.

Too many for them to cope with, by the look of things:

Arsenal's Europa League game against Cologne at Emirates Stadium has been delayed by an hour "in the interests of crowd safety", and will now kick off at 21:05 BST.

Thousands of ticketless away fans turned up outside the ground and no supporters were allowed in.

German side Cologne had only been given a ticket allocation of 2,900, but around 20,000 of their fans brought central London to a standstill earlier in the afternoon.

Don't mention the war.

 

[Motown Fox]

There looks like loads of them in the ground. More than the approx 3,000 allocated to them.
They're creating a great atmosphere and what a goal to give Köln the lead.

How on earth do they manage to get flares into the ground?

No searches apparently, after all the problems outside the ground.

Yes, don't bother doing searches when there are ~17,000 unwelcome guests outside and s massive crowd inside.

Makes perfect sense to me.

Absolutely. I'm surprised in some ways that the game still went ahead.

As was Wenger!

Unfair play:

 

[Blue Maniac]

Unfair play:

Ehh. If he wanted play to stop he should have kicked the ball out.

 

[SwedeFox]

Unfair play:

Ended 2-2 as well with the same player scoring a late equaliser.

Italy will not be at next Years World Cup.
I bet Swede Fox will be happy.
You can run where you like to celebrate Swede.

People moaning about England really ought to look at Holland and Italy, and take a little stock
