Real Madrid (A) - CL R16 Post Match thread

[RayCTID]

Has someone farted in that studio?

The ref died

 

[willipp]

He gets a lot of stick on BM and in general me included. However big credit to gundogan, I thought he was brilliant tonight. I don’t remember him having many better games for city.

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

I think deep down Souness has a soft spot for City. Always has something decent and constructive to say

not a soft spot. He is just an honest pundit. Calls it all for what it is no bias or prejudice

top pundit

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

No goals scored by any other English team in the CL so far. Liverpool LOSE in Madrid to a ‘very good’ Atletico team. City win in Madrid, against a team 10 points ahead of Atletico, serial winners of the CL but they’re ‘very shit’. At least they’ve decided not to even pretend anymore.

@TCIB keep the lights on. I wanna view all the post match wind down :)

Chin up rio

 

[Rochdale Blue]

Wonder how the dippers are feeling, Ramos sent off but we win in Madrid.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Don't underestimate the difference Sterling made when he came on. Won the penalty, played a big role in the first goal too.

He changed the game. Pace is key for us, we need at least one of sterling or sane on form, it’s makes us so hard to play against.

 

[roy.or.r]

Uefadrid have to score atleast 2 at Etihad right? Can I stop panicking then?

 

[cookster]

Is it because it’s changed in the EFL Cup? Loads thought it was the same tonight in the match thread.

Cheers

 

[colorado blue]

Ref was very good tonight.

 

[asahartford1]

A big shout out for @B\connellblue .

You know what you are.

 

[Metalartin]

Would have been harsh to book Jesus for the penalty appeal by Sterling tbf.

Haha fair enough that was a different incident but the red card was significant.

 

[meltonblue]

Showed both sides of Guardiola tonight.

Up to the goal, the tactics he utilised should have seen us winning. After the goal, it showed trusting the players sometimes is all it needs. He’s taught them all well, let them loose and they can beat anyone.

'Pep deserves massive credit'
Real Madrid 1-2 Man City

Micah Richards

Former Man City defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

This was a masterclass. So many times people question Pep - to not start David Silva, Sterling, Aguero, Fernandinho - he deserves massive credit.

Tonight he showed that if he's not the best in the world, he is one of the top three.

 

[@BluePhil8]

Were by far the greatest team the world has ever seen!!!

 

[AliBobbyJ]

Magnificent. Should have been 4-1
Madrid fans say City deserved to win.

Second leg cancelled because of the virus.

 

[Marvin]

At 1-0 I thought here we go again.

It was written in the stars that we'd win the game with a pen.

what a **** he is. He can’t hide it.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Best ref in five years.

They've lined up Antonio Masoni for the second leg! Taylor and Mason have registered with the Brastislava FA!
