DOUBLE EUROPA FINAL GTC GTG R28: SC Freiburg v ASTON VILLA Weds, 20th May!

[Louzie0]

Welcome to our DOUBLE EUROPA CUP FINAL Round 28 of GUESS THE CROWD and GUESS THE GOAL (in alphabetical order)! SC Freiburg v ASTON VILLA will KO at 8 pm in the Tupras Stadium, home of Besiktas FC in Istanbul, Turkey!! 🥅🥧

Wiki on Freiburg:

Sport-Club Freiburg e.V., commonly known as SC Freiburg is a German professional football club, based in the city of Freiburg im Breisgau, Baden-Württemberg. It traces its beginnings to 2 clubs founded in 1904. It plays in the Bundesliga, having been promoted as champions from the 2.Bundesliga in 2016.

Freiburg will face Aston Villa in this season's Europa League final following semi-final wins over Braga and Nottingham Forest respectively.
It is Villa's first major European final since winning the European Cup in 1982, while Freiburg have never been in a major continental showpiece of any kind before.
Famous ex player: Joachim Low, the winning manager in the 2014 World Cup.

Freiburg are described by the BBC as, ‘efficient rather than spectacular: nine wins, 25 goals scored and 10 conceded, all built on a disciplined defensive shape. Set pieces…  eight goals from dead-ball situations, while their shot numbers show a willingness to take risks going forward.
The trade-off is a lack of clinical edge. They have taken more shots than Villa but scored slightly fewer goals, leaving games more open than they might like.’
Nickname- Breisgau Brazilians!

Capacity of Tupras Stadium: 42,684

However,

Reasons to be cheerful -

we’ve got a great team!!
we’ve got Unai Emery!!
we are going for a cracking finish to the season!!

Good morning H&V, and what an absolutely great season this could yet be, for The Villa. We're still well in the game! Congratulations to Unai and the lads for winning the place in the Europa Cup Final and beating Liverpool to secure Champions League next season!👍

This is a Double Round, so you will need to Guess:

                          * the attendance figure at the Final, according to the BBC report of the match, and,
                          * the minute a goal is scored in the match - and hope it’s ours, although they all count!

Please remember, no editing of your post.
So, If you post a crowd number and accidentally forget to include your goal guess, or vice-versa, you can post it separately. I can cope! 😃👍                     

                         
GTG: Guess any minute from 1-90. You can guess 45+ or 90+ if you’re strangely drawn to extra time drama.
GTG usually finishes for winning points when the ref blows for full time after 90+ minutes, but in the event of a Half hour of ET or penalty shootout, you can guess a minute in that half hour ( ET x or Villa Penalty 3…) if you want to! Only one minute is the rule.

The usual bonuses apply for both GTC and GTG; the Brucie Bonus (wild), Emery’s Extras, and Ollie’s Star Subsidy!

There is also the NEW Super Shirt Bonus for this match; if you guess the minute of what turns out to be the winning goal, you get the number of points on the back of that player’s shirt  added on to your usual 11 for the spot-on 🌟 guess! Oooooh!

Let’s hope all our lads have their scoring boots 🥾 on!

And now…it’s time to invoke the big ‘un, to frighten Freiburg and beat those Brazilians!

…Yippee aye yay….yippee aye oooh!…COYVB!!!

UTV!
