No disgrace going out to real madrid on penalties. We are the better side and we were the better side but we didn't do enough.
We scored 3 goals from outside the box in Madrid, they've got their third choice in net, why are we not shooting more? Can't score if you don't shoot. for all the dominance, and we did dominate them, we created very few scoring opportunities and that's been an issue all season long sadly.
First half was awful. No tempo in our game at all, players looking lost and not sure where they should be or whonthey should be marking at times madrid had men free everywhere, we were lucky to keep it to just 0-1. Second half was much more like us, we played a great second half in everything up until the last pass or shot. Have to say credit to madrid too they defended excellently and as the second best team on the planet after us
i expect them to comfortably win it now. That was the final. little bit disappointed arsenal didn't go through now, would have enjoyed them getting a spanking and 2 extra games.
The impossible dream of a double treble is dead now. need to move on. FA cup is going to be a real slog now, I don't see how we can be fresh enough to go into that all guns blazing, lot of players looked floored but a loss there too this weekend can really harm us. We now have to win all our remaining games in the league, that's our saving grace.
Ref was utter wank, tried his very very best to ruin a game of the highest order he didnt wuitr manage it but its nothing but a footnote.
Fans second half were outstanding, can't say we didn't back them right until the end.
Now is where we see the true mentality of this side. Heads up and step up a gear to make sure this season is still a success.
