#UCLFantasy Playoffs 1st Leg Wrapped Up ✅
GW Points: 106
Total: 765 | OR: 7,202 🌍
Another small green arrow in a round that was completely flipped by Anthony Gordon’s giga haul.
- Four goals vs Qarabag.
- 27 points.
- 54 for those who captained him.
That wasn’t just a good call.
It was potentially season-defining for those who went there and brutal for those who didn’t.
Clean sheets were scarce.
Only Real Madrid, Dortmund and Leverkusen managed one; and from the latter, very few (if any) would have gone with their assets not named Grimaldo who, once again, delivered. At this stage, going without him is more bravery than logic.
For those who owned only one Newcastle defender rather than doubling up, conceding might actually have been convenient.
And for those on Thiaw alone, probably the best realistic outcome we could have asked for.
Inter rotation backfired. Chivu gambled, underestimated the tie, and now faces a two-goal deficit heading into the return leg. That’s the Champions League. You don’t speculate at this level without consequences. Lesson learned, perhaps.
As for my team, I decided to roll the dice with Thuram despite the late Sky reports suggesting he might start on the bench (news that surfaced Wednesday). It was essentially a one-point swing versus my best sub, and I backed the idea that he’d get minutes. Sometimes the marginal bet lands.
Sometimes it doesn’t. This time, it didn’t.
Knockouts compress margins.
The gap between a green arrow and a red one is often a single captaincy call. Or in this gameweek going Guirassy/Osimhen vs. Lautaro/Dembelé.
Second leg ahead.
Plenty still in play.
Let’s reset and go again next week.
How did you guys make? Any high ORs out there?
