Every so often the sporting world throws us a curious little oddity. Like it has done this upcoming weekend. Due to Huddersfield Town winning their FA Cup replay against Leicester City last night, they will now face Wigan Athletic at the John Smith Stadium on Sunday. However, the Super League meeting between Huddersfield Giants and Wigan Warriors is also taking place at the John Smith Stadium this weekend. So I think for the first time ever, the same fixture is being played at the same ground on the same weekend, but in two completely different sports!
Saturday, Super League Rugby: Huddersfield v Wigan
Sunday, FA Cup Football: Huddersfield v Wigan
Can anyone else think of a similar occurrence? Or any other sporting oddity?
I don't know whether this is a oddity or not, but I'm pretty sure the Super Bowl is supposed to be the most watched sporting event of the year worldwide. I'm pretty sure tonights Real Madrid v Man Utd game is expected to beat it.
(Come on Madrid!!)
