Agree Salah hasn’t been sharp enough. Really looks like we are relying on Mane; or Dias to suddenly get some space in the box. Have felt Thaigo has been a little deep too - wonder if we could get Keita on for Hendo (very bold/dangerous decision I know)
Right, half time, regroup.
We were well in control for most of that, and we looked much the better side. Courtois kept them in it. Then some iffy stuff at the end nearly saw them get a goal. VAR studied it for 4-5 mins (so therefore not clear or obvious) and couldn’t find a way to award a goal.
Regroup and go again second half. Slightly better finishing and we ta
Not arsed about looking good this Madrid team are they? All about the result. Kind of admire it in a way, that are just the opposite of what you think of when you picture a Real Madrid team.
Konate needs to wake up and take charge of such situations when it happens.
Clear your lines!
No dilly dally in the box please. You have a chance to clear, then clear.
Ref allowing the game to flow, which is good. However, when Casimiro has both hands around Diaz to prevent a counter opportunity, a yellow HAS to come out.
He got away with it, and will use that chance to stop another counter in the second.
Tell them all from me, to go fuck themselves.
Go fuck yourselves UEFA for your ineptness and Real Madrid for thinking you could derp your way into a lead at the end of the half — got what you deserved. Regroup and go again.
Came down to who the ball was played by before being penalised
It was a spectacle watching Carvajal lose his cool as the half wore on. He can’t handle Luis and he’s been amping up the shithouse tactics in attempt to slow him down.
Good half. Very slow tbh. Teams look nervy. Mo needs to get the shooting boots on. Same with the others. Thiago doing well but looks a tad off 100%. Konate playing well bar the last 5 same with Ali. Need to get a goal though. Come on
Media now crying LiVARpool because glorious Madrid aren’t winning
Real will not start playing until 85th minute.
has not had them since AFCON
Thoughts on the ref?
My take is that he’d let Sadio be stabbed and not give anything?
COYR YNWA
Ferdinand is gutted.
We still struggle to score goals in finals.
Bit of an overreaction that isnt it.
Rio Ferdinand not understanding the explanation from the official
If there is no obvious outlet to clear, Our CDs need to boot it!
Klopp will be furious with Konate!
