Real Madrid post match post mortem

[City Raider]

Yeah Kev had it but Rudiger missed a big chance for them too. We reduced them to relegation fodder tactics.

 

[blueinsa]

Can’t win it every year.

Bag the league and I’m a happy bunny again.

Congrats to RM.

 

[madloaf]

Proud of the fight. But we absolutely threw it in extra time. Madrid were completely on the ropes, we took haaland off, and that was that. Don't make that substitution and I think we win. However...probably need a couple of beers to assess properly!

 

[chris85mcfc]

Pathetic from us overall

Had them on the ropes at 1-1 but continued to pass the ball, recycle it backwards, and again had 31 attempts, and 17+ corners and I swear to God I don't recall their keeper making a real save

Bernardo penalty summed us up, tepid in front of goal and we've been sucker punched tonight

 

[Zablo Pabletta]

Fine. Ancelotti is a master at this.. His players did their homework. We haven't hit the heights that much this season so it's hard for me to think we "deserve" more than losing to Real, considering we are fighting for an unprecedented 4th consecutive PL title, and have a great shot at the FA Cup.

 

[Blueknows]

Wtf were thempens from Bernie and kova , can't fault the effort best team out

 

[PragueBlue]

Deserved to win it normal time but bad misses cost us. Not going to blame Bernardo and Kovacic. At least they had the balls to step up. Shame we didn't still have Haaland and KDB on for the penalties.

Played well but wasn't to be. Proud of the lads and their performance.

 

[Blue-Ghana]

Doku should have started this game . Carvahl was the obvious weakness

 

[wolviedinho]

Nothing but respect for how we played tonight. Pens is a shit way to leave.

Not scoring enough goals this season.

It’s was always going to be a huge task getting to even this point in the season.

No excuses, no let’s go for the league and fa cup etc. Shame we have not been able to score but it does sum up our current predicament. Conceding too many and not scoring enough.

Well done everyone. Next year we go again.

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

Well done Real Madrid.

We had our chances
We played like shit,
We shot penalties like shit,
We deserve to be out!

We have no one to blame but OURSELVES!

How on earth can you say we played shit? We absolutely dominated the game man.

 

[Silva&Silva]

Hope for nothing but pain for Carvajal

 

[Josh_D]

Proud of the lads.

Can’t even utter a negative now. City and pens, just not meant to be.

Worst thing as well. Played till ET and still have to play on Saturday. Fucking hell. Not even Sunday. Hope they’ll be able to go again.

 

[homerdog]

Not being able to finish off teams after dominating them has been a theme this season, as has conceding from their first chance.

Let's face it RM were shit, cheating, cunts, which makes the defeat feel worse.

 

[Scottyboi]

Sleepwalking for the first 15 minutes was fucking stupid. No threat in extra time was all very predictable.

 

[pavelsrnicek]

Over 30 shots, 20 corners, one goal. Brilliant up to the box, dreadful in the box. We’re out against an average Real Madrid side because a horrible defensive howler first half and 2 of the worst penalties I’ve ever seen.

Our set piece coach is stealing a living.

 

[Worzel Gummidge#9]

We nullified their threat it was one way traffic the vast majority of the game, their goal was a very scrappy one, but we weren’t clinical enough and didn’t create enough really good chances, I thought Erling had a pretty poor game to be honest

 

[I'm Blue]

Well played City.
Unfortunately we shouldn’t have let it get to penalties with that dominant display.
Too wasteful.
Then getting to pens and Eddie saving the first one we then handed it to them on a silver platter.
League is a must from this position.

 

[Bodicoteblue]

DeBrune eight yards out!

Can you believe we had Resl Madrid playing like Luton!

Arguably the two best footballing sides that have come to us - Arsenal and Madrid- both parked the bus.
Maybe ‘ironically‘not ‘arguably’.

 

[platty7]

Go and do the double now

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

I don't know why after the goal we just tried to walk it in, did we take a single shot from the edge of the box in the last 60 minutes of the game?
