Driussi too
He’s doing really well in the MLS tooI think Driussi is still in MLS.
- AEK Athens win the Greek title, their first since 2018, like in the Eredivisie the usual dominant club, Olympiakos, have really struggled, will likely finish 3rd and miss out on the CL themselves, though maybe their owner is more pre-occupied with Forest
Those are the confirmed ones for now, looking elsehwere not too many surprises, there are tight title races in Bulgaria and Romania which can see fairly "new" winners, Ludogorets the dominant club in Bulgaria only have one point lead over CSKA Sofia while the current leader in Romania are Farul Constanta (managed by Gheorge Hagi) are looking to win their first title since 2017
Aside from Sparta winning the Czech league after a long drought, subjectively more impressive is that my local side Bohemians finished fourth which puts them in Europe (conference league qualifiers) for the first time in the post-revolution era.
With 4 (out of 6) MD's completed in Belgium's championship playoffs, we could see Antwerp win the league next weekend. Antwerp were 3rd at the start of the playoffs but then won at Union, they beat Genk at home and last week were down 0-2 at home vs Brugge but a 97th minute goal gave them a 3-2 lead and first place in the playoffs. This afternoon they lost 2-0 at Brugge, but then the Genk v Union game ended in a tie which means with two games left, Antwerp and Union are tied for first place (Antwerp hold the tiebreaker), with Genk 3 pts behind. Next weekend Antwerp host Union and a win would see them become champions for the first time since 1957.
What surprised me most was Priske going there and immediatly winning the league. He was pretty shit in Belgium last year. Does Sparta play nice football?
Copenhagen won their 2nd straight Danish championship yesterday to complete a remarkable comeback in the league. For a long time it looked like they wouldn't even make the championship playoffs.
Nordjaelland led the league for the entire regular season, but yesterday lost 5-1 at Brøndby which puts them 4 pts behind Copenhagen with only one game left. They only got 2 pts from their 5 away games in the playoffs.
Most league are just about finished now. The only champions yet to be decided are Armenia (FC Urarte lead defending champions Pyunik by 2 pts with two games left, one of them against eachother), Bulgaria (with two games left, CSKA Sofia hold a 1 pt lead over Ludogorets who've won 11 straight league titles), and Turkey where Galatasaray have a 5 pt lead over Fenerbahçe, they can win the league tomorrow in their away game at Ankaragücü. Crazy stuff can still happen though because Gala v Fener is the final MD.
edit: also worth mentioning but in Serbia, champions Red Star Belgrade have completed their 2nd unbeaten season in 3 years, their only loss in that period was last season in an away game at FK Radnik Surdulica. That's 1 loss in their last 112 league games. (actually 113 because they lost the penultimate game of the 19-20 season)

What's interesting in 2nd place was TSC Backa Topola, so they will be in the CL qualifiers; they too are politically backed of course, one of the many regional clubs Orban's cronies are taking over to create some phony 'Greater Hungary' through football
