They beat Club Atlético de Madrid 5-1 over two legs to claim the 1973/74 European Champion Clubs' Cup, and then beat Valencia CF 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in the 2000/01 UEFA Champions League final in Milan. • Getafe by contrast are up against German opposition for the first time. • Rubén De La Red can at least claim to have seen the inside of the Fußball Arena München before, having been an unused substitute as Real Madrid CF lost 2-1 in the second leg of last season's UEFA Champions League first knockout round. His side lost on away goals with the aggregate score 4-4. • Bayern coach Ottmar Hitzfeld has never won the UEFA Cup before, although he has twice triumphed in the UEFA Champions League – with BV Borussia Dortmund in 1996/97 and in his first spell with Bayern in 2000/01.

To overcome this challenge, we use data from professional soccer, where employees of the same club face different external career opportunities de- pending on their nationality. We test whether the career prospect of being selected to a Euro Cup national team affects players' pre-Cup performances, using nationals of countries that did not participate in the Euro Cup as a control group. We find that the Euro Cup career prospect has positive effects on the performances of play- ers with intermediate chances of being selected to their national team, but negative effects on the performances of players whose selection is very probable.

The results indicated that there were three distinct lightning flash regions in mature typhoon, a significant maximum in the eyewall regions (20–80 km from the center), a minimum from 80–200 km, and a strong maximum in the outer rainbands (out of 200 km from the cen- ter). The lightning flashes in the outer rainbands were much more than those in the inner rainbands, and less than 1% of flashes occurred within 100 km of the center. Each typhoon produced eyewall lightning outbreak during the periods of its intensifica- tion, usually several hours prior to its maximum intensity, indicating that lightning activity might be used as a proxy of intensi- fication of super typhoon. Little lightning occurred near the center after landing of the typhoon. super typhoon, lightning, WWLLN, the Northwest Pacific Citation: Pan L X, Qie X S, Liu D X, et al.

The best 28 track data, advanced satellite microwave imagers, high spatial and temporal 29 ground-observed radar images and rain gauges are utilized to study this unique eyewall 30 evolution process. The large-scale environmental conditions are also examined to 31 investigate the differences between the contracted and non-contracted outer eyewall cases 32 for tropical cyclones that reentered the ocean.
