European Nights is back! And ahead of Matchweek One, Rog and New York Times Chief Soccer Correspondent Rory Smith are here to give a primer on the new Champions League format (that is not at all whatsoever in any way, shape, or form a Super League knockoff).

Plus...kibbeling. Lots and lots of kibbeling.
