Inter Milan (N) | Champions League Final | Post Match Thread

[Chi-town blues]

I just watched that Rodri goal again for countless times and it gets better and better every time .

 

[Gremlin]

Mad to think that, whilst we are all still on a high from the final, the whole things starts again on Tuesday next week.

Preliminary round semi-finals:

Atlètic Club d'Escaldes (Andorra) v Budućnost Podgorica (Montenegro)
Tre Penne (San Marino) v Breiðablik (Iceland)

Book your seats now!

I still can’t watch their chances. Convinced eventually they’ll score.

It’s like an inverse Ricky Villa moment.

Pinpoint accuracy but at pace. It's a technique most players can only dream of. There is only a fraction of a second between his sweet strike and the net bulging.

Keeper had no chance.

Flew in like an arrow.

 

[Gremlin]

Flew in like an arrow.

Not quite like an arrow - there was some bend on it to get it round the defenders. Makes it even more impressive!

Watch this:



It'll make you feel a little better!

An emotional Pep.

That brought on tears. City haven’t done that to me since 99.

Mission accomplished MEN souvenir edition just arrived. Well worth it for a fiver inc postage.

Ordered it yesterday; near enough a tenner for postage. Tw@s!

Wow! Some of those misses are incredible. Makes Sibierski look like prime Haaland.

Me too. I love to see what it means to the manager and players. Pep has had that monkey on his back since he's been here so it must have been a relief to finally get it off. For me as a fan since 1968 it hasn't fully sunk in yet just what we have achieved this season. Forget the rags treble, this one was much harder to win due to every club in the premier league being stronger than in their season, owing to the massive TV revenue. In their year the top four were miles ahead of the rest because of the champions league revenue they got every season. Fact. For us fans who stood on the terraces of Wembley against Gillingham in 1999 this is a dream we never thought we'd see.

Thank fuck Edin was already taken off, he would’ve buried at least one of the chances that red reject spurned

 

[levets]

Incredible to think that this is Nepal......

That’s mad! How quickly we are growing

 

[MadchesterCity]

Sorry if already been discussed but was there a valid shout for VAR to check for handball if Rodri’s shot didn’t go in? All the players were appealing

Not sure if anyone answered, I think the shout was more out of hope, I shouted the same in the stands lol

 

[MadchesterCity]

My old fella got lost last night, he’s 76 and would’ve been stressed out big time, he didn’t get into the game ( he’s devastated) but a Turkish man saw he was distressed and translated for him and travelled on all the transport with him back to his hotel and paid his fares as my dad had no money
He bought the man a meal and drinks back at the hotel as a thank you

Nice to know there’s still really good people out there

May I ask how he never got into the game?

And United spent the same on him six years ago as we did on Haaland and Álvarez combined last Summer.

That’s mad! How quickly we are growing

Have a look at the Oasis documentary Lord Don’t Slow Me Down from 2005. They go to Japan on the tour and loads in the crowd have City scarves, flags and shirts.

May I ask how he never got into the game?

The 3 of them were stood in queue for the shuttle to the fan park, he told his cousin to hold his coat while he nipped to the loo ( his coat had his phone/ticket in
He never saw them again, he thought they’d got on shuttle without him and they thought the same about him
He walked for miles back but had no idea where he was going and he was genuinely frightened which for him to admit he must’ve been really worried
I was also going up until the Thursday when I realised I just couldn’t do it with working away commitments so obviously feel it wouldn’t have happened had I been there
He said the not getting to see the game wasn’t the worst part of the night it was the being alone in middle of nowhere, not knowing how he was going to get hold of anyone or even the name of his hotel, he said apart from bereavements it was the worst day of his life.
All the family are completely gutted for him, he’s been to every Wembley visit since 1956 and he misses the European cup final like that
His mate rang me 2 minutes before KO telling me we’ve lost your dad and he’s not in the ground so I didn’t enjoy a second of the match with worry

Another spine-tingling video from City Studios

That’s the beauty of it. From behind you can see that lovely bend and the intended placement.
From the side it’s a blistering rocket that’s bulging the back of the net before anyone knew what was happening.

 

[Spanishbob]

Still haven’t got my head around this. European cup winners nooooo its all a dream and we’ve been beaten by gillingham and gone into administration.
