Paris Saint-Germain (A) - CL SF | Post-Match Thread

[Nascent Blues]

Very disappointed that we didn't try and score more goals given the man advantage. Zinchenko for Cancelo made the difference.

We did try. It just didn't come off.

Can I just add.....that mazy run from our Phil was sublime and dare I say Messi-esque

The lad has it all, had his effort gone in at the end of that run

Proper City 2020/21 performance. Totally dominated the ball, starving the opposition and then death by a thousand cuts with our mesmerising passing.

Stupendous

Fucking brilliant! I want to win this comp so much!

Fantastic second half but worried we might pay for not ramming home our advantage.

Amazing dribble from Phil, just a shame he didn't toe poke it in.

Great game, from 2 very good sides.. They were the better first half but we had chances.. Whereas the 2nd half we dismantled them and they barely ticuejd the ball in our half.

One of the best 2nd half performances I've ever seen by City

 

[Blu1]

Only half time blues nothing silly & we can score another 2 at home.

excellent game by city & pep for changing it

One of the great European nights. Brilliant by City to come back like that. Really bossed the second half. Zinckenko made a big difference but I thought Walker had an awesome game. Phil showed flashes of sheer brilliance and Mahrez came up trumps with the winner. Tie is far from over though.

If Phil had scored that goal. Would have been a worldly

Watershed win Blues. Lets get this Like count up.

Absolutely fantastic. They tried to blow us away in that first half, we rode it out and knew we would ware them down. That second half was a masterclass, they could not handle it, total domination and all they could resort to was kicking us, and hoofing long balls.

That ref was fucking shocking for 20 minutes of the second half, but even he couldn’t ignore the shit housery. Very happy Gundogan got back to his feet.

 

[Blumooniac]

I take it Tyldesley and Beglin will cry themselves to sleep. C**ts. CTID.

 

[Cornish_Blue]

Unbelievable result.

We defended well 2nd half.

Walker was really good.

ZINCH, proving that he deserved that place.

MAHREZ- superb.

BERNARDO- like a crazy terrier.

Fabulous 2nd half performance. Structured and focused. We made lots of chances. People saying we NEED a striker, perhaps we do, but we are STILL scoring.

Hopefully Gundo is ok. That was a disgusting assault. It deserved 2 reds. Even my spud mate txt and said that’s a disgrace. He could have broken his leg.

PSG just seemed to run out of steam. Perhaps the extra physicality / speed of the PL showed through. Tiredness causes rash decisions!

 

[Don Karleone]

Must admit, it's more fun being a happy clapper.


Get in CITY!!!!!!!

 

[Cityzen_89]

Foden is better than Sterling in every way except pace. I don't see Sterling sitting out too many games and being happy but he isn't playing anywhere near Phil's level. Could be off come the Summer window.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

I don't understand this. PSG outplay us in the first half like nobody else, and then we outplay them even better in the second half. Perhaps they got tired after we upped the tempo.

I think we were just in awe of them in the first half, or even scared. Then once we got through a couple of times at the end of the first half our players got a bit of belief. Hopefully that’s a catalyst for us to be able to be ourselves in the biggest games.
