On The Continent: Cholismo reigns supreme, Neymar proves his worth, and Atalanta score even more goals

Published: March 12, 2020, 12:43 p.m.

Despite the Coronavirus pandemic forcing more leagues behind closed doors, and some into mid-season postponement, there\u2019s still plenty to discuss on today\u2019s episode of On The Continent; Andy Brassell is joined by Lars Sivertsen and David Cartlidge to review this week\u2019s Champions League action!


We begin with Atl\xe9tico\u2019s Cholismo-inspired win over Liverpool as Diego Simeone\u2019s side withstood a siege from Klopp\u2019s men. We discuss the Liverpool manager\u2019s comments about Atl\xe9ti not playing \u2018proper football\u2019 and the gradual emergence of teenage sensation Jo\xe3o F\xe9lix. Elsewhere, PSG beat Dortmund 2-0 behind closed doors as Neymar proved once again he can deliver the goods when it truly matters, while RB Leipzig breezed past another uninspired Tottenham side.


There\u2019s also time for chat on Atalanta's relentless goalscoring and the threat posed by Coronavirus to players, fans and institutions alike.


A quick note: we didn't do a Games of the Week section this week, due to the current situation involving league cancellations and postponements.
