Any takers for adding Wednesday night against Real Madrid to your Top 3???
Watched it on TV in a hotel room, so had volume on low. However, just got home from a trip, watching a replay with the sound on 11, and it was BANGING at the Etihad on Weds night!
CONGRATULATIONS to all who were there and created a night to remember!
Watched it through cold for the second time on City + on Thursday. That's easily our greatest CL performance, and perhaps our greatest performance. The first forty-five minutes are staggering. The media kept going on and on about 14 times champions, the competition was invented for them, they always find a way to win, etc., etc.
They truly looked like nervous little boys against fully grown footballers. The last time I saw anyone do that to Real, it was Barcelona, the 5-0 match in 2010.
Yes, probably our greatest night match ever. I want to put the 2-1 against Liverpool close to it, though, for an entirely different reason. That was Ali against Frazier. Two worthy champions slugging it out — but there can only be one champion.
