Someone’s probably stealing it

For those that missed it and can view this replay (possibly geo-locked):



Also, this view:

Interesting view that, the keeper initially lined the wall up perfectly, with no gap, but the referee hadn't marked the walls distance, and when he does, he does a shorter line than the wall (he marks from left to right), and the right hand defender stands on the end of the line, which creates a gap, the keeper does check but doesn't do anything to move the wall.

I'm sure liverpool's video analyst if he see's this view, will be having a go at both keeper and defender for giving Messi the smallest gap to aim at.

That said its still brilliant to get it so perfectly into the corner.

The away dressing room right now...

girls fighting video

not slagging here, and i'm not a sensitive person, and i believe that "political correctness" is a poor substitute for common sense, but I don't think posting that is very fair to the girl on the receiving end, if this is a true life video.
If this is from a show or a staged event, then, ya...right on!

Can't see pic :(

No pics for anyone who criticises Rashford it seems ;)

I don't mean to be that guy but I'm pretty sure the freekick took a deflection.

I said earlier, the keeper didn't set that wall correctly it went round the wall not over it, very poor keeping.

See my post above, he set it perfectly, then the referee moved it, and he didn't reset it.

The Barca v Ajax final edges ever closer....

The final all neutrals want.

 

[MCFC1993]

Their fans? I don't know that it will wreck 'em mentally (there's not a lot to wreck mentally with the average candlegripper), but it will be verrrrrrrrrrrry funny, which is good enough for me.

The fans, the players, probably the manager as well, it'll be an awful summer for them.

Lets just hope we and Barca get our jobs done.

Mcpointyman questioned the amount of players in the wall as the free kick was so far out ,I know it was top corner but I think he has a point.....even a stopped clock and all that.

Oh, it definitely did.

And as far as when I talk to Liverpool supporters, Messi meant for it to. ;-)

Just been on rawk unbelievable!!! They still think they are going to overturn the result ffs?? About as much chance as Phil Thompson’s dick being as big as his nose

Van Dijk meant for it to too. Genius.

I initially thought so too, but that video from behind (above) shows it doesn't.

Some chirpy, cheeky scouser will have had it away soon as he looked down!!

Watch the closer angles that focus more on the side of the wall, it shows the spin of the ball change after it passes the wall.

That view from behind though seems to show a gap, he certainly moved his head, but the ball doesn't seem to move.

{edit - just watched it again, and it keeps bending towards goal, had he got his head on it, it would have to deviate}
