Social Zone: Father's day comes early for Robbie and Tiger, while Barcelona face more misery
Robbie Savage and Tiger Woods both enjoyed heartwarming moments with their children this week, while Barcelona have had less fun during their Champions League campaign.
SOCCER: A heartwarming moment in the Champions League yesterday as Robbie Savage was able to commentate on his son's debut. It meant we had to endure actually listening to Robbie Savage, but heartwarming nonetheless.
"Coming on for Man Utd, Charlie Savage for Juan Mata..."

"Wow, I never believed I'd say those words, what a proud day!"

SOCCER: However, at least young Charlie Savage only had to wait until he was 18 years old to make his Manchester United debut... not 35.

SOCCER: And Gary Lineker found United's game an opportune moment to roll out the dad joke of the evening, take a bow Gary.
Seems right against this opposition that @ManUtd are playing some of their young boys.

SOCCER: Elsewhere in the Champions League, things didn't go so well for Barcelona. They lost their must-win match against Bayern Munich 3-0, meaning they were demoted to the Europa League.
Thomas Muller opened the scoring, marking his eighth goal in seven games against Barca, and the German forward decided to rub salt in the wounds afterwards too. Ouch.

SOCCER: It's fair to say Barcelona were missing one man in particular. But while they were being hammered by Bayern, he was busy showing them what they were missing... against his kids.

GOLF: It wasn't just Robbie Savage that was able to share his sport with his son either. Also with his son named Charlie, Tiger Woods is set to return to the PNC Championship and play alongside his 12-year-old.
More memories will be made. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/v38hs8zoTu
