Why aren't Gundogan and Bernardo back man-marking the runners?He was marking Rodrygo in the box for the Real Madrid second goal and completely switched off, managed to both lose his man completely and miss the ball, Rodrygo gets a free header and we go to extra time.
Sometimes it feels like people on here don't even watch the game.
Ball bounces off Asensio's head which takes it over Laportes?
Could be closer to Rodrygo but bit of a freak/lucky goal.
Totally agree. Don't understand why people always have to look for somebody to blame for everything. Sometimes shit just happens.Ball bounces off Asensio's head which takes it over Laportes?

Laporte is waiting in the box for the cross and he runs in unmarked and it found his head perfectly.
I don't know enough about tactics to know where the blame lies completely but it's definitely not ALL at Laporte's door like some are saying.
Outside of twitter though, in the real world, shots on target is a shit measurement of defending, isn't it.
If a defender passes the ball to the striker who manages to miss an open goal, it's still a mistake by the defender.
Laporte is perfectly good enough to be our 3rd CB but he's not in our best partnership and Aké will put him under pressure if he keeps making progress.
