Last time at this stage, we got an English team at home first, and went out.
The year before in the knockouts, we got an English team at home first, and went out.
It has to be third time lucky now.
We certainly can win, but we'll need to win the home game and go from there. Unlike the last time we went to that neck of the woods in "Europe", we have no issue with their fans, they've no issue with us, both endured the 20 years of oppression from the common enemy down the road after all. Same goes for the coaches. It will be a clean contest off the pitch, and played in excellent spirit on the pitch. Assuming it stays 11 a side, it will be everything football at this level should be.
