We just beat Real Madrid 4-3 in the semi Final of the Champions League.

We go over there as favorites.

Think only of the positives on such a wonderful night for our great Club.

We also just put on a great game of football for neutral fans Globally.And beat the greatest Club in World football.

Also i actually prefer 4-3 to 4-2.

Reason being you have a couple of goals advantage you change mindset, try and consolidate the advantage, and deviate away from playing your natural game.It can actually work against you.Chelsea were actually unlucky not to put Madrid out in the end, after losing that first Leg.

We will play our normal game and go Toe to Toe,we have nothing to fear.

Nailed it, absolute classic tonight. I'll be amazed if we don't score a couple over there. Defending was patchy for both sides but that just added to the fun.
 
Could of killed the game completely, but still ahead. We'll have players back but they'll have home advantage and Casemiro back!

Need to start strong there

So should a penalty be given every time the ball hits a player's hand in the area?​

No. The exceptions are if the ball hits a player's arm directly from the player's own head or body and if a player is falling and their arm is between themselves and the ground for support. There is also room for interpretation as to what makes a player's body 'unnaturally bigger'.

Surprised that the experts and the ex referee haven’t actually mentioned this…

That’s because that’s the old rules, that got taken out for this year by IFAB. It’s now all just about whether the hand/arm is deemed to be in an unnatural position.

Spot. On.
 
Whoever scores the first goal will go through I think. If they score, they are just mentally too strong and lucky to not advance. I think we need to go with a slower tempo. I doubt they will come to attack us after seeing how good we are at counterattacks. If we have Walker available, I am sure we will beat them

Bravo sir.
 
Brilliant, brilliant performance, came out with "just" a good result instead of a brilliant one. They could not cope with us from the start, we genuinely should have been 4 up before they scored and that's not the cliche line where you name every slight opportunity we had, we had 4 glaring goal scoring opportunities before they scored and only took 2. On a similar theme, we scored 4 goals against Madrid, an impressive feat on its own but it genuinely should have been 7 at least! That doesn't happen often to them, even when they're shit they don't take a pounding.

It's a positive result and no reason to feel like we shouldn't go through but it does feel like a missed opportunity tonight, we should have made the second leg a stroll. instead, they're one moment from swinging the tie in their favour. Believe we will get the job done but we could have made it so much easier. Having cancelo back will help, having walker back would be huge. Back of the mind for now though, Leeds need a smashing this weekend.

Great game, great entertainment, but it's difficult to be happy with a one goal advantage when we were two up three times during the game.
And we should have scored more. For about the millionth time this season.
And the two pitch invaders should be banned for several years as I doubt we got the full amount of stoppage time thanks to them.

I'd ban the "responsible" adult who was with the little kid, don't think the lad decided all by himself to go on the pitch.

Bunch of know nothing cunts, it's if they are trying to impress us with their disappointment, how the fuck can you be negative about any of those city player's tonight, of course there were mistakes, but every single one of them tried their heart's out and as a city fan that is all i ask
Superb game

100% every single one of them gave their all in a blue short, Tells you how much effort they put into a game when Bernardo asked if Phil could talk first in the interview because he said he was too tired! Bernardo possibly the fittest player on the planet. The way we play we take risks and against players like Benzema you'll get punished with even given half a chance. I wouldn't want it any other way when they got back to 2-1, 3-2, 4-3 ect we kept going wanting another goal.
To call players out after that honestly just go watch another sport, Or go support the Rags...I don't know. Spoiled brats.
