I've created a Champions League trivia game where you will be given random players and you need to name the clubs that this player has played for in the Champions League.

3 difficulty levels to get through.

Atletico Madrid join the list of teams that would've gone through via the away goals rule but are beaten in ET/penalties. How has removing the rule affected European football? #RealMadrid #Atletico #UCL

Add PSV to the list of home teams who have won in extra-time in the CL ✅.

Since the removal of the away goals rule, most extra-time ties have been ending on penalties, away teams have quite the disadvantage in extra-time 📉.

Kiwior cannot allow Jimenez the inside there, overcommits to covering the run up the line #FULARS

Roughly 10% of all throw-ins during the 2015/16 Premier League season ended in a shot. ~1% ended in a goal.
