And imagine telling someone from the 2000s that having a Milan Derby as a Champions League semi-final would be seen as "the underdog clash" because the other one, featuring Manchester City, was somehow bigger and more hyped up
I admit I found it rather odd that he only covered the last 5 seasons. Especially when, as you pointed out, there literally was a season full of underdogs to cover right before this time frame
So youre basing it mostly on how clubs place in their league? Because Ajax was a very big CL underdog. Getting to the semis wint only a hair away from the finals
