Tough challenge, but definitely looking forward to it. Fighting for a 3rd place finish needs to be our goal.

I can understand your excitement, although hopefully you boys will be able to contain it to negate your need for the domestos.
Did you get anyone else on the draw, or is it just us that left you peeing your panties?
Who???

Israeli teams always play in European Competitions as they are not really welcome in local competitions.

Yes…and also Asia…as is Istanbul
Istanbul, the largest city in Turkey and the fifth-largest city in the world by population, is considered European, yet it occupies two different continents. One part of Istanbul lies in Europe and the other part lies in Asia.

Yes, but was/is it actually in Europe? Just because they play finals in Turkey, that doesn't necessarily mean it's geographically in Europe.🤔

As in half of it in Europe, the other half in Asia, or meaning the whole country's in both continents?🤔

It's on the border between Europe and Asia. By modern definitions of Eurasia, there are five countries which are on both continents - Russia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkey.
In each case, part of the country is considered to be in Europe, and part in Asia.
All 5 are members of UEFA.
