Borussia Dortmund (A) - CL QF | Post-Match Thread

One or two need to stop focusing on that first 45 minutes.

It was the away Leg of A Champions League Quarter Final,it really wsant that bad, we kept it tight, and fell behind only to a screamer. We stepped it up second half.

For me it was a perfect European away performance,
I thought the first half was fine. Very unlucky to be losing
 
We got smashed for 25 minutes and it all felt very Lyon, Spurs, Liverpool, Monaco. Then we stepped up, in other years that pen would have hit overruled. We got stronger and they looked knackered in the end. Immense display second half.
 
Not convinced we can score enough to beat PSG because no way we will keep Mbappe and Neymar out. But I hope we have a go for it and not repeat what Mancini did against RM

What's up with you?

If you are just a brainless wind up merchant you should know it's working with me...

Stick your negative posts (and your fucking beetles) up your arse...

Clear pen imo, the position of the hand decided it imo. Also the ball was not bombed at him, he had time to control his body, when fullbacks often try to defend crosses with their hand behind their back, central payers must be careful too not to leave their hand out like that.

dont think it matter if just touched his head before, he did not change the direction imo with his head anyway.

emre Can was stupid, and he was stupid last week when they did not give the pen when he kicked Rodri in the knee by trying some stupid back kick.
 
From 25 minutes onwards the most professional European performance you'll see. Foden will get the headlines and rightly so, but De Bruyne truly put in a captain's knock, was everywhere!!!

It is an offence if a player:

  • deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, including moving the hand/arm towards the ball ...

  • touches the ball with their hand/arm when:
    • the hand/arm has made their body unnaturally bigger...
The above offences apply even if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from the head or body (including the foot) of another player who is close.

Except for the above offences, it is not an offence if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm:
  • directly from the player’s own head or body (including the foot)
Not even up for debate, it SHOULD definitely have been a penalty and we were definitely good for the win in that game.
