September 18 Information

Introduction of penalty shots in the old European Cup

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

And from the same general area in Italy. Deja vu all over again! ← Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots14:55, 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

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? carrots06:29, 18 September 2021 (UTC) reply
Maybe Strip The City? -- TrogWoolley ( talk) 23:12, 18 September 2021 (UTC) reply
