We have to win it before extra time or we’re toast.

 

[TinFoilHat]

We've got this.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I agree with this. Inter compact and defensively tight, but we still had the best chances. Their chances have come about because through our own making in giving possession away cheaply and they do break fast. Sometimes it’s been down to their press, but quite a few times it’s all our own doing.

But that's always how they were going to win. They've not going to outplay us, so keep the game tight and there's always a chance with a set piece, a mistake, a break, etc. They're playing it perfectly and we look poor. Hopefully they're relying a lot on their press and will weaken over time.

the weather is hard conditions with hot weather and 80% humidity which plays into how hard we can run... Inter will get tired

Bullshit excuse this isint the sahara

 

[Brewster's millions]

It’s nerves. Nothing more, nothing less.

We just need something to go for us, a goal from a set piece, deflected shot - anything - and we’ll get into our rhythm.

For me, spot on tactically means creating chances yourself, not just stifling your opponent. The Match Day thread is no surprise, but to all those proclaiming an Inter masterclass, it is 0-0 at half time, so get a grip...and don't be defeated before another half of the match is played.

 

[TrentGrisham]

We shouldn't be so hesitant to just go long sometimes. Make them play it out from the back.

Most champions league finals are tight affairs. This is no different. We have to trust our defence and play with a bit more tempo, and chances will come.

 

[Metal Biker]

They definitely didn't dominate us but they are playing well, 1-0/2-0 would feel very fortunate I don't think there's been anything to separate either side

Tell THAT to the negative nancies on this thread.

 

[Bill Walker]

Ref has been fine

Except when Jack was dragged down
