Sporting CP (A) - CL Last 16 - Tue 15th Feb, 20:00 - Pre-Match Thread

[mat]

Hopefully third time lucky for City in Lisbon tonight. Not been the site of any good memories after 2012 and the Lyon match in 2020.

Indeed.

Can see us being 2-1 down to give UEFA a semi before smashing them at home.

Long as we don’t lose it be a good result.

But sadly there are too many numpties on here who may have never heard of the great man. Before their time, perhaps.

This has Archbishop Desmond written all over it...Tutu (2-2)

Is that you Mr Merson.

Due to media reports about their game vs Porto I watched the highlights. They will be a handful and probably diving all over the place.
But they conceded plenty of chances so we will definitely score. Although away goal advantage doesn’t count anymore.

Any 10 with Ederson will do.
Get a result. Finish it off tonight if possible.

Are there any other archbishops called Desmond to get him confused with?

Anywhere in town recommended for the game?
I’m at the Salford end so imagine most there will be showing the rags so may have to venture further out

Well surely all the local rags will be at the game having so many local fans ! Iam sure all the pubs in Salford will be empty.

Tough game this tonight a team very quick and clinical on the counter attack seem really suited to play against us though will they be good enough defensively to keep us out? There results against ajax make me think not. Don't think pep will be to ott tonight and we will be a little cautious as always first goal will be crucial to us.

Any pictures from the fans in Lisbon?

They've sent me fuck all
