Summary

European Nights returns as Rog and Rory Smith break down a dramatic week across the Champions League and Europa League. They begin with Real Madrid’s commanding first-leg win over Manchester City, where Federico Valverde’s stunning hat trick exposed Pep Guardiola’s bold tactical gamble. Then attention turns to Premier League clubs after a bruising round of results raised questions about England’s success in Europe, including brutal nights for Tottenham goalkeeper Antonín Kinský and Chelsea’s Filip Jörgensen. The two then look ahead to the decisive second legs across the continent. Plus, the remarkable rise of Bodo/Glimt and one Europa League tie to watch.
