Match Thread | Manchester City v. Al Hilal (CWC) 01/07/25

[SWP's back]

Ederson really is an average keeper at best..... that 2nd goal was poor but poor all round from the corner. His stops to shots on goal ratio must be appalling.

Been in the bottom two in the league for the last four seasons.

 

[vmsuhail]

Is there a reason Bernardo hasn’t been taking our corners for the last decade?

KDB

 

[BigJoe#1]

They will claim they hae had all the big decisions go against them.... and they might have a point.

 

[Boo or Boo-urns]

Khaldoon on the fat loss jabs.

 

[phargrave]

If it goes to penalties we’re fucked!

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

Is Kolo our clapping coach? He’s good at that.

 

[york away to this!]

Because Ruben Dias wins the ball, it can't be a foul.
Insightful there from Townsbellend.

 

[Luke The Blue]

The things I'd do for Vincent back.

 

[Mattyc55]

Can’t believe Dias is still on the pitch he’s absolutely all over the place

 

[urban genie]

love this ref, no nonsense

 

[01cravend]

If Dias was a young player he'd not be seen again for 6 months, don't get the blind spot he seemingly plays in.

These lot are a bunch of absolute pussies.

 

[SWP's back]

They attack with pace, we attack with zinner frames, ffs we just play at 1 pace unless we get ball and then do trys to go around everyone

What space do you want out players ti run into?

 

[ElMago_DSilva]

Tarkowski pops up with the odd goal at least

And he wins aerial duals.

 

[gray740]

Cheating diving wankers fuck right off.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

The commentary on Channel 5/DAZN (for our games at least) has been so, so bad in every way. Constantly getting names wrong, not seeing offside flags, now screaming whenever Al Hilal get near our goal.

 

[Black&White&BlueMoon Town]

Sorry to show my ignorance but does it go to extra time or straight to penalties if it stays this score?

ET, pens, and No Sleep Till Brooklyn!

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Might be because I’ve had no sleep but the commentators are really fucking me off. I’ve never heard such fuckwittery.

Fucking raging like reprobates every time an Al Hilal player so much as breathes for fuck sake. Also seem to not understand the rules of football.

“I think because he gets the ball it cant be a foul.”

Saying that in a commentary box and pretending you’re fucking Plato should be a sackable offence.

 

[Eccles Blue]

That was not a foul. When, oh when will we get commentators who like City or at least are fair to City?
Is that too much to ask?
