Real Madrid (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

[Bald fraud]

TNT hate us with a passion! That coverage tonight was an absolute disgrace! It’s gone on for years now since the bt days. They constantly cheer for the foreign team when we play shocking coverage of an English side from an English Channel

That referee was an absolute disgrace. Every single 50 50 went their way and he even needed to be told by VAR to give an obvious penalty. That Valverde tackle that didn’t even get a yellow and then Rudiger not getting sent off. Good job we won!

DOKU must have been shagging his Mrs
He was kicked and fouled that many times tonight. I thought they should have brought him off on the stretcher when we subbed him

 

[Yue Wollongong]

Why first 20 pages in post match just talking TNT? We have a lot positives that’s really on the pitch. Savinho did well for the task he was given- keep ball in control and make them run back.

 

[LongsightM13]

Only the first week of December, and of course we could clown show and Bozo it like so many recent second halves lately

But, I don’t know, that feels big, feels significant.

And also a coming of age for a few of the newer and youngers in terms of belief

 

[Sebi]

Good win. Worst referee performance ever seen and i've watched alot of football.

 

[Colin Barretts bouffant]

Real Madrid 1 - Manchester City 2...That is all

 

[East Level 2]

Bloody typical City. Madrid scored with their only shot on target.

 

[RobinHood]

Well in City ,Courtois was they`re man of the match ,closely followed by the Madrid based Ref shocking performance by him as usual ,always against 12 ....

He's a bloody great keeper.

Big Clive Myrie had a twinkle in his eye reporting our win in Madrid! Brilliant result against a team of utter cunts.

 

[Sir peace frog]

When I saw the subs I did a groan.

And another when he left Bernado on.

But fair fuks they did well.

Thought the subs were bang on gave us that little bit more energy

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Great game, it wasnt techincally brilliant and we werent creative enough at all. And I tink RM were relatively poor. Nonetheless for players like ORielly and Cherki to step up and perform, and for the team to stay solid despite going down and playing against the ref at times, at their ground.. I was quite please.

Savinho was poor too - Not piling into him, but he had space there at the end, they were stretched and he wasted a couple of good chances, even though he probably created them.

 

[ysmsa]

An excellent win despite being nowhere near our best.

Very professional 2nd half performance to see it out.

Up against 12 tonight. This referee is better than that performance he put out there tonight.

Up to 4th!

What did the Referee do wrong?

Rudiger second yellow maybe but what else, he could have ignored our penalty and looked at 2 incidents in our first goal.

 

[lefty goldblatt]

Looking at Khaldoon talking to the TNT 2@s......

Cooler than the North Pole

The coverage was terrible mate. It’s an English channel covering an English team. We aren’t given an equal billing to the others. You can hear how pissed off they were when we won. Joke

 

[Blue and true]

Fucking sensational result. Many standout performances but Nico deserves the plaudits; Ait Nouri will be regretting his life choices right now.

 

[super_city_si]

He's a bloody great keeper.

Gigis good but courtois is the best.

 

[1961_vintage]

Not at our best and yet we pull-off a fantastic result in Madrid. Well done lads.

Then mute it and stick the radio on!

 

[gingerprince]

Great Win in the end after poor start.

NOR deserved MoM and it will have also significantly boosted his World Cup goal

Be great to see him playing for England in
the Summer.

 

[bluemc]

Whilst I acknowledge we didn't play Madrid at their best or their strongest given some of their injuries, in the second half especially that was a mature away European performance by the blues (or dark greens, to be precise). Defensively resilient, O'Reilly and Nunes superb, and Cherki put in a shift that I hope becomes the norm. Doku looked shattered on 70mins but he was running them ragged.

Makes up for the shambles against Leverkusen, and hopefully Tebas goes to bed tonight absolutely fuming.
