So after seeing the Patriots come back from down from 28–3 in Super Bowl LI, many of us thought we saw one of, if not the greatest comeback in sports history. That was until this past Wednesday. I’m not quite going to explain to you Champions League aggregate scoring rules right now, but long story short, Barcelona needed to score 3 goals in the final 2 minutes (plus a little stoppage time, for those preparing to call me out). Somehow, they managed to pull off one of the greatest scoring outputs in history. Neymar netting two goals within two minutes and Sergio Roberto scoring on the final touch of the ball to push them ahead of PSG on aggregate to advance to the CL quarterfinals. With teams abilities to take the air out of the ball and run the clock at the end of matches, Barcelona’s ability to regain possession and score was one of the most impressive displays I’ve personally seen. It made for one of the most spectacular nights of soccer in Champions League history.

Solid set of tunes for you this week. New tracks from FKJ off his new album French Kiwi Juice, New Zealand rapper David Dallas, and up and coming Philly producer Louis Futon. Little bit of chill, little bit of funk, an ecclectic mix to start the weekend. Enjoy!
