Who dares doesn’t care.
Are people really righting off Arsenal bottling the 2nd leg, losing 3-0 then going out on penalties?
Yes
They won’t concede 3 goals
They might. But Real are just junk at the back right now and I cannot imagine them keeping a clean sheet. For all the talk of Arsenal’s injuries it was Real with a makeshift team out there, made even more challenging by Tchouameni being suspended. He will be back for the second leg, and maybe dropping him back ito midfield will allow them to shift Camavinga into LB and put Alaba out of his misery. But it’s still an approach that leaves holes and leans on them still using a kid with only about 15 first team appearances alongside Rudiger
My initial reaction on Rice’s two goals was that the second was the better one because it had just that bit more “fucking 'ave it” about the strike. But I just saw an angle from behind on the first one and it was just sensational. The movement, how far outside of the wall it started (the second one was a badly constructed wall but there was no wall that could have addressed this one), and the placement…it was just unsaveable. Genuinely one of the best free kicks I can remember seeing. Comparable to Messi’s against us in the first leg in 19
Kelleher saves them both mate.
Camavinga is suspended for second leg…
Always think his name sounds like some kind of infectious disease…but heyho…just me…
If Real Madrid score an early goal - and they have every chance to, with a passionate home crowd and all their attacking talent - it could then be game on.
We would then see what Arsenal are made of. Will they buckle under the pressure? Or will they play their game, offer their own threat, and advance to the semis?
It’s not over, but obviously it is advantage Arsenal. Probably 75-25.
As for today, it will be interesting to see if PSG hit the same level they showed against us. If they do, I think they will win the whole thing. Villa did well to strengthen in January and it has put them back in with a shout of qualifying again for next season. If things click for them they could nick something, but that PSG side is the best I’ve seen this season.
“Your Royal Highness has travelled all this way”
Rio, it’s like an hour flight bud. Relax.
Let’s hope it goes to extra time. That would be best for us.
Going to be a long night this for Villa.
I can see Villa hanging on by the skin of their teeth until the 87th minute and then snatching a late winner…nah that could never happen..
Cash yellow very harsh…barely a foul.
Goal Barca but was Raphina offside when he stole the goal from his team mate?
Nah he was on…lucky. pure stupidity.
What a selfish dumb cunt. Very lucky.
Much more eloquently put than i did
Adeyemi lucky to escape a second yellow
Villa ahead away at Paris. Rogers.
