From Arsenal to Hällevik: Champions League Nights and a Swedish Fairytale- Morning Espresso, 10.21
The game never stops — and neither do we.
It’s Matchday 3 in the UEFA Champions League, and the midweek magic is back. Arsenal chase their 100th win in the competition as Atletico Madrid come calling, while Real Madrid and Juventus rekindle a classic European rivalry. PSG head to Leverkusen, City travel to Villarreal, and Newcastle welcome Benfica to a rocking St. James’ Park. We break down the biggest storylines and the numbers behind the matchups that define the week.
Beyond the lights of Europe, a fairytale unfolds in Sweden — where tiny Mjällby, a club from a Baltic fishing village, have shocked the world to win their first-ever league title. From Hällevik to the Emirates, it’s a reminder of what makes football truly global.
