Champions League Games 7/8 August

[The Stockport Iniesta]

He is obstructing the defender from kicking the ball surely ?

Getting your leg in between the defenders leg and the ball is fine. Wouldn't have been a problem if kk wasn't fast asleep and aware that Messi was there, he didn't have a clue.

I still think it was a tackle from behind by Messi, also against the rukes

Just madness really. I’m At the point of apathy towards it all if it doesn’t involve City. Haha

If you’re Sterling maybe with a possible yellow for good measure!

I was just about to edit my post to say exactly that.

Of course it's not a booking for Messi.

So if Messi is about to shoot & a defender sticks his foot in front of Messi as he's about to swing through the ball, it would be a free kick against Messi ?

According to the rules. Now if they don’t give it as a free kick against Messi then we can them fuckers. Mind you, we call them fuckers anyway. So we’d need stronger words :)

Not difficult tbf.

Garcia will fit straight in.

Great run by Sergi Roberto.

Koulibali was poor, but it's a booking when forwards do that outside the box.

I don’t get how that is a pen either.. Messi simply didn’t have the ball anywhere near under control. He literally just stuck his leg in front of KK as he was winding up to clear it.
