Excellent match for Oliver in Madrid, and a good sign for
Barrott holding the numbers board.
Sozza with a UCL debut if I recall correctly, Im sure our
esteemed and veritable Italian expert Jad can confirm this!
Godinho under the Dallas radar too.

I'm not opening a separate thread under General Discussion. I
saw the 2nd half of the game at Real Madrid and Michael Oliver
kept a lid on things, particularly when Inter Milan sensed late
on that they could get something out of the game. The same did
not seem to apply in the Man City game at Porto where, according
to the Times, tempers flared, tasty tackles flew in on a
rain-soaked pitch, and there was a bust-up in the tunnel.
Referee was S Marciniak. I did not see any of that game and
wonder whether anybody else could comment on what went on.
