Real Madrid (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

[City Raider]

Yeah Rodri gave the ball away a few times but out of possession he was immense - again

 

[David Silva]

Forget our Quality, Our Fitness in that 2nd half is the real danger we hold over the teams from Europe.
We have a patched-up back four no wingbacks KDB out and John Stones Bossing the midfield over Bellingham,

Real Madrid, Giants of the game my arse...

Definitely right there. They looked fucked around the hour mark and we were going up through the gears. The subs absolutely saved them in fairness, modric particularly. We would have smashed them if they hadn’t made the change.

 

[NLW Blue]

I thought City were brilliant for the majority of that 2nd half. To dominate Madrid on their own turf like City did was fantastic. This is a Madrid team that haven't lost at home for over a year and are 8 points clear at the top of their own league.
It was a great game and anyone who says City play boring football is mental. When 2 good teams come up against each other and go for it, this is what can happen. Its just the rest of the shithouse premier league teams tend to park the bus against City to make games boring.

Good draw

Better second half, quite a few poor performances though, so I'm glad we come away with a draw.

Yeah thought rodri was quite poor tonight unlike him

 

[Worsleyweb]

Magnificent night. Proud of the lads. The match day thread is a joke. Complete joke.

We have a real chance of 2 trophies this season which will be simply incredible. Three I suspect will be a bit too much.

 

[footballmanager]

? presumably Real were also shambolic

they were pretty good for their standard, if we up our game at home like we should we go through

 

[bennyboy]

Bellingham is never going to United unless he's on a free transfer, Madrid are not that daft and have him under a long contract with a buyout clause worth more than all of the utd starting 11

He is a **** so every chance he will go to one of the 3 red clubs.Fit in nicely with Saka diving on both sides.

 

[Barcon]

Just finished watching on a delay.
Cracking game.
Good result.
We were the better side.
Referee was great.
Bellingham is a ****.

 

[Vic]

I thought they looked like we'd tired them out. Fresh legs saved them.

 

[Mancity1980]

Can't believe Bellingham didn't pick up a yellow in that game

Wouldn’t he have been banned for the second leg? I think that might be your answer.
