Even worse, it’s the semi finals of the supercup, which has semifinals for some reason now.

Yeah I only became aware of the concept of supercup semi-finals very recently reading about the Spanish ones. What an awful concept. Lol Saudi Arabia and all that but I can't blame them for not wanting to see a glorified friendly semi loving final.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
How is that different from an FA cup semi-final?

e; oh LOL it's semi-finals for the charity shield, gently caress me dead

Besides money, I guess the rationale is they realized it was boring having the same two or three teams contest the super cup every single year.

The real solution to which would be something like actually enforcing FFP rules and, uh, lmao

Oh apparently playing the final outside Italy is something that happens regularly

wikipedia posted:

Of the 35 finals played to date, the venues have been as follows:

Twenty times at the home of the Serie A winners;
Four times in China;
Three times in Saudi Arabia;
Twice in the United States;
Twice in Doha, Qatar;
Once in Tripoli, Libya;

Still, lmao at the blatant cash grab of semifinals for a pointless final

Saudi "fans" bringing a LAZIO MERDA banner to the charity shield semi-final because Sarri had the audacity to say that such a thing was bad and fail, and there not being enough people there to actually hold it up properly

The Turkish Super Cup match between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce was supposed to be played in SA but the SA officials said no to players wearing Ataturk shirts during warm up so both teams packed their bags and returned to Turkey at the last minute
