5 Unforgettable Champions League and European Cup Finals

Monte Rosa

Reading Time: 3 minutes Let’s have a look at 5 memorable finals in the Champions League and European Cup

As we anticipate tonight's Champions League clash between Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid, it has sparked memories of past finals involving Real Madrid and other great matches. After careful consideration, I've compiled my top 5 Champions League finals, including those from the European Cup era when the trophy was a two-legged competition. For those who might disagree about the inclusion of European Cup finals alongside Champions League finals, remember: the trophies may have different names, but the essence remains the same - competing for the coveted "cup with big ears." Throughout history, there have been some truly remarkable finals, and...

Here we take a look at 5 over-rated players currently plying their trade in the Premier League. Over-rated by fans, media and bloggers alike. Over-hyped disappointments who flatter to deceive, who have flopped for the majority of their Premier League careers. In no way is this article meant as disrespect to the mentioned players. We recognise there are factors off the pitch that could impact their performances and it is not a merely a case of players being over-rated, so we hope any players mentioned are getting the medical support and support from their manager and team- mates that they...

Title Race Battles: 5 Unforgettable Premier League Classics

Monte Rosa

Reading Time: 5 minutes We are probably witnessing the tightest 3 team Title Race ever! Let’s look back at some legendary EPL Title Race finishes

This season's Premier League title race is shaping up to be one of, if not the best in Premier League history. If this was an 1500 metre race, we would be at the stage where the runners are on the final bend approaching the home straight. 3 teams are separated by a few points and you feel goal difference could even decide the eventual champions. I honestly do not know who will win out of Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City at this stage. Every injury, suspension and spurned opportunity could be deciding factors as the games just get bigger and...

Admiral and MUNDIAL have teamed up with the Bob Marley estate to recreate the iconic fashion worn in London’s Battersea Park by the global icon and his band to coincide with the release of the film Bob Marley: One Love.
