Real Madrid (H) | Post Match Thread

[Postman Pep]

What a fucking incredible game of football that was.

 

[Bluearmy]

Exactly that mate. The reasons for feeling a tad disappointed are pretty obvious.

To be fair to Madrid its a trait we dont have. Cant remember the last time we played awful and got an undeserved result. I know we beat Madrid but thats never a 3 2 game. But theres loads of games weve dominated and not won. Lets hope it doesn't come back to bite us on the arse next week

Correct me if I am wrong but if madrid win 1-0 they will advance

Wrong, no aways goals rule now.

 

[Indaparkside]

Thank fuck they've done away with away goals

Why we’ll score 4 there:)

 

[bhayes]

What do madrid need to advance?

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

First goal crucial in Madrid, we get it, we'll go through to the final easy, they get it we'll be in a proper game, bring it on.
Are you not entertained?

Yep, we score first & they need 3 unanswered to go through, next goal massive

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Did either keeper make a save? I can’t remember one…

 

[Indaparkside]

Weong, no aways goals rule now.

He’s not Chinese

 

[Cricket Blue]

In British sports media it won't

Rags will be back page on giving Phil Jones a new deal

 

[xgorton]

Correct me if I am wrong but if madrid win 1-0 they will advance

No,extra time will be played.

 

[baggy]

Very entertaining game and excellent atmosphere in the stadium but how tf do we score 4, miss another 4, allow only 4 attempts against us and go to Madrid only 1 goal in front. Thank god away goals dont count.

Correct me if I am wrong but if madrid win 1-0 they will advance

You're wrong. :)

That’s not in the laws of the game, I think it changed at the start of the season. I’m not sure if the text you have was ever in the the laws, or if it was just premier league guidance.

It got put in the rules in 2019 and got taken out for this season.

I’ve always thought with the handballs like Laportes though, it’s more deserving of an indirect free kick than a penalty, seems an overly harsh punishment for the crime. Admittedly it’d be a nightmare at times to decide though.

From the BBC match feed

This is the sixth time Real Madrid have lost the first leg of a Champions League semi-final - they've failed to reach the final on any of the previous five occasions they've lost in the first leg.

Fuck it, I've changed my mind. C'mon City, Paris here we come!

 

[MichaelFrontzeck'sBathroom]

Lost control of the game too many times for me.

Slight worry if we’re honest

 

[Octavian]

What do madrid need to advance?

Win by two clear goals or win by one goal and then on penalties.

No away goals this year.

 

[Postman Pep]

Did either keeper make a save? I can’t remember one…

Now you mention it ..... me neither. Mad stat in a game like that if true.

 

[Bald fraud]

We are better than Madrid. And any other team in the world for that matter!

 

[dobingsdobber]

Always has. But at least he doesn't blow over in the wind anymore.

And don't forget,he's only got tiny little legs.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

This Madrid team plays in small, huge moments, though, don't they. Like a proper hard hitting boxer in their final match knowing all the tricks in the book. No accident that they've done PSG and Chelsea, I've never seen anything like it.
