September 18[edit]

Introduction of penalty shots in the old European Cup[edit]

Technical question: if they were introduced into the competition as early as 1971, why was the '74 final between Bayern Munich and Atletico Madrid repeated? Thank you. -- 93.41.98.158

We've had this question before (7 March 2020).

Although shoot-outs had been a staple of UEFA competitions since 1970, penalties were not used to decide a title in those days. So for the first -- and, as it would turn out, the last -- time, a European Cup final went to a replay.

From Bayern Munich's historic 1974 win over Atletico began their dominant era. Alansplodge (talk) 15:22, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Same IP user, too, by the looks of things. --Viennese Waltz 08:06, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

And from the same general area in Italy. Deja vu all over again! ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 14:55, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

At least the Swiss IP who constantly asked questions about fencing has given us a rest. Hope I didn't jinx it :-) MarnetteD|Talk 15:12, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Documentaries about cities[edit]

I've watched a great documentary about Dubai in 2014. It showed the cities and everything happening under it (oil and water underground). I remember that it was a series of documentaries with other cities and they were always about what is under the cities. I've tried to find it for several days but I can't find the titles. Does anyone know about it? Ericdec85 (talk) 05:53, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds kind of like Cities of the Underworld. ←Baseball Bugs ^{What's up, Doc?} carrots→ 06:29, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe Strip The City? --TrogWoolley (talk) 23:12, 18 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
