yeah i'm very disappointed in bayern still tbh

this is what i was saying about two games vs one, they knocked out two teams better than real madrid but in a single game the tactical advantage is reduced

they begin having to score at least once in 90/120 vs 180/210 so the defensive/attritional paranoia that animates them in a psychological as well as tactical sense is sort of neutralized; no away goals rule

So Torres is still shit after all?

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 28 May 2016 19:47 (seven years ago) link

not really he's been playing fairly well in la liga but with madrid playing deep there's not a lot he can do

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 19:51 (seven years ago) link

atleti 433 now probably so should be competitive

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 19:52 (seven years ago) link

Oh fuck.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 28 May 2016 19:56 (seven years ago) link

lol griezmann looked almost sorrowful beforehand
so easy to fuck with even good penalty takers if the goalkeeper can carry off the tom o'bedlam routine, especially if they are either a penalty specialist or have already saved their penalties
very good value booking

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 19:59 (seven years ago) link

Athleti look much better this half.

Matt DC, Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:13 (seven years ago) link

yeah
niguez, koke, griezmann, carrasco is a really good attacking midfield
something they didn't have two years ago

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:19 (seven years ago) link

aha!

And the cry rang out all o'er the town / Good Heavens! Tay is down (imago), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:27 (seven years ago) link

Praying for pens

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:31 (seven years ago) link

yeah

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:32 (seven years ago) link

Real win on pens. 121st minute winner would be so much better.

Matt DC, Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:43 (seven years ago) link

navas has 9/29 saved, oblak 7/24 so not a lot of difference
oblak has saved 2/3 since he has been at atletico, vs messi and muller

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:46 (seven years ago) link

long day, Atleti so much more imposing in the 2nd half of real time, down to the audio coverage now

Noodle Vague, Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:50 (seven years ago) link

they are in atleti time now tho

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:51 (seven years ago) link

I hope Clattenberg's learned the Spanish for 'your mother is a whore'.

Matt DC, Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:52 (seven years ago) link

juanfran is a more competent attacking wingback than had been suspected

And the cry rang out all o'er the town / Good Heavens! Tay is down (imago), Saturday, 28 May 2016 20:57 (seven years ago) link

than will have been suspected by less seasoned liga bbva viewers

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:00 (seven years ago) link

torres needs replacing by correa unless the latter is useless (maybe idk)

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:01 (seven years ago) link

it took pepe 110 minutes to get booked, it's like a new beckett play

And the cry rang out all o'er the town / Good Heavens! Tay is down (imago), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:13 (seven years ago) link

New Beckett play

Daithi Bowsie (darraghmac), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:14 (seven years ago) link

lol / lol xp

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:14 (seven years ago) link

As John Hartson would say, it's looking like pels.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:17 (seven years ago) link

find it almost impossible to envisage torres scoring a penalty

Don't think I ever wanted a player to die as much as Pepe. This is really bringing out he worst in me.

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:22 (seven years ago) link

Thank you babby Jesus for the pens

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:23 (seven years ago) link

Feeling not sorry for Loltorres already

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:27 (seven years ago) link

you weren't here but i called that miss

And the cry rang out all o'er the town / Good Heavens! Tay is down (imago), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:35 (seven years ago) link

that's disappointing but some consolation from the notifications

Jay Andrews ‏@jayandrews076 9m9 minutes ago

Can't believe Pepe never got yellow carded for his play acting. Don't like to see that ever

Ndalni Luigj Xhaka (nakhchivan), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:36 (seven years ago) link

if ever, if ever a situation called for a panenka, that was it

And the cry rang out all o'er the town / Good Heavens! Tay is down (imago), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:37 (seven years ago) link

Anything on the telly tonight?

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:38 (seven years ago) link

oh look one of barca and real won

Van Horn Street, Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:39 (seven years ago) link

They've turned the tellyvoff in the pub, I wanted to see Gareth Bale announced as player of the match by BT Sports viewers.

Larry 'Leg' Smith (Tom D.), Saturday, 28 May 2016 21:39 (seven years ago) link

big risk from zidane picking young lad to take the first peno and leave ronaldo last. if kid missed and they lost 4-3 on pens they'd be calling for his head. 5th pens are prob not taken half the time but i suppose ronaldo knew it could be the one for glory

Neptune Bingo (Michael B), Saturday, 28 May 2016 22:19 (seven years ago) link

Real having their open top bus printed up with 11 Times Champions or whatever and rolling through the streets of Madrid within nine hours of winning the trophy in a completely different country is some next level shit.

Matt DC, Sunday, 29 May 2016 10:40 (seven years ago) link

they know a thing or two about making buses run on time, true
