Summary

The Playoff Knockout Round is behind us, and we're here to break it all down.

It was a day in which favorites prevailed, though not without strife. Fiorentina did a Fiorentina and survived by the skin of their teeth, while Nottingham Forest performed a decent impression for 50 minutes. Elsewhere, Celta Vigo and Stuttgart stake their claim as major players in deciding the Europa League crown, Lille turns things around in Belgrade, Panathinaikos prevails on penalties, VAR drama, and Crystal Palace muddles through.

We also take a moment to look ahead to the Round of 16 draw, featuring some stellar matchups in both divisions.

All that and much more on today's show!

Cheers to Claudio Giráldez!
