Those two moments swung the game firmly towards Madrid, and they were both incredibly unlucky
At 2-1 I literally said to myself ‘Nothing silly now. Just get to Half Time and go again’, and literally the next thing that happened was the Keeper fucking up.
Christ’s sake Ali. Can’t we even have a laugh at Courtois with you topping him?
Because it’s their fault that Ali gifted Madrid the equaliser. Or that the defence stood around like statues for the header. Or that the ball was deflected for the fourth. Or that Fabinho gave it away for the fifth.
damn… there u go, u optimist u!! even at 2-0, i knew the boys in the middle would run out of legs and we would be wide open. At worst i thought we would lose by one and maybe tie 2-2 at best… didnt see us winning the game to be honest…
Still remember being able to say Real never beat us…
Enter Brendan Rodgers and that team…the rest is history, and now we are on the receiving end…
Anyway, fortunes will turn again at some point we’ll beat them again…
He played better than he has done, probably his best game this season, and maybe the bar wasn’t that high but he wasn’t miles worse (or better) than the rest.
And that’s the rub. Madrid probably lick their lips when they come up against us because they know we will come to play football, especially at home, which is exactly the type of competitor they want to play. Because they know in 95 games out of 100 they will be far more clinical than this Liverpool team over 90 minutes. ‘Liverpool wants a shootout? We are happy to oblige.’
That’s nothing for us to be ashamed of. They are Real Madrid. We are not 18/19 or 19/20 Liverpool.
