Real Madrid (H) | Post Match Thread

Feels a bit like the 2-2 game with the Scousers where we've technically got a good result but still feel a bit disappointed as we dominated so much of the match and had so many chances.

Still very happy with the win and a very entertaining game to watch, but we've given ourselves more hard work and pressure than we really needed. Feels like both teams will score several more and it could end up being a Monaco style 8-7 aggregate game or something like that. Just hope we're on the right side of it and am confident we will be.

Mahrez needs to do a LOT better in front of goal. Really shockingly wasteful.

i’m concerned the whole tie smells of the Monaco and Spurs fun fests

it definitely had those vibes. Just a serious lack of game management, seems a trend with us in this competition.

Can't help but feel like we wasted a golden opportunity to put this tie beyond them and it will end up biting us in the ass in the return leg

Anyone feeling disappointed in that match and score maybe football isn't for you, or maybe you need to start watching the other madrid team

Some fucking whinging on here, of course I would of liked a 4-0 but that was a fucking great game and get walker and cancelo back and we would of been home and dry.

Looking forward to the next leg, should be another cracker, and I think we have got too much for them

The problem is despite scoring 4 we just don't take our chances in these games.
Hopefully Haaland solves that.
I think we've spurned a big opportunity tonight

You're looking at it the wrong way. The big opportunity is next Wednesday ;-)

Tonight feels like a missed opportunity even though we won. We should have been out of sight, but I still think we will get the result in Madrid we need to get to the final

It is going to be a classic for neutrals, but for me it was complete and utter shit game, the only good thing is away goal does not count. The goals we are conceding, there should be rule the team conceding such goals should not be allowed nowhere near the final. I might be hugely disappointed and talking shit, but there is something wrong with Pep's teams in CL, the game management is total crap. Instead of being 4:0 up, you end up 2:1, and then you miss another 3-4 100% goal chances and let another 2 goals. That penalty and everything leading to it is a comedy of errors.

You’re talking shit.

It’s Real Madrid we are playing, not Watford and it’s a Semi Final of the CL, not some dead league game.

We won an incredible game of football, fucking cheer up.

This wasn't a good result.

It was a fun game and I know some people are just giddy because City have beaten Madrid, but this was a rare opportunity to kill the tie in the first leg, and avoid next week when they will have Casemiro back, they will be better because they're at home, and Ancelotti will adapt.

Very similar to the 2-2 Liverpool game. We left them alive.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Vinicius doesn’t go past Walker the way he did with Fern.

Walker would have probably been up the pitch.

 

[KnaresboroughBlue]

Imagine how frustrating that would have been had Sterling started

More frustrating than Mahrez??
