Thought Bayern were tactically very very good in that second half. Completely suffocated Arsenal in midfield.
Jorginho off didn’t help Arsenal.

Not a chance there’s 107 schools in NI playing rugby. That’s over half the schools. I presume some primary schools play rugby as well. In 2022/23 there were 1,079 schools in Northern Ireland, compared with 1,178 in 2010/11. The majority of these schools are primary schools, of which there were 794 ...
