Lazio playing Bayern, Atalanta Real.
Who acutally expected the italians to go through here? It's 1st vs. 2nd tier teams.

We were worse then the both of them...
We at least tried to win and pushed on till bitter end. Atalanta just rolled over.

That's my problem. It's not them losing. Its them losing this way.

Ah gone back 2011-2013 period with Serie A being garbage in Europe.
Italian teams as a collective have been consistently garbage in CL. It's not just those years.

Just 3 semi-final appearances in like 10 years is beyond pathetic.

- - - Updated - - -

Even quarter final appearances have been very limited.

Since 2011:
11-12 - Milan
12-13 - Juventus
13-14 - NONE
14-15 - Juventus
15-16 - NONE
16-17 - Juventus
17-18 - Juventus, Roma
18-19 - Juventus
19-20 - Atalanta
20-21 - NONE

This is beyond embarrassing. It won't be pretty reading when we compare this to other top 4 leagues' QF/SF appearances in the same timeframe.

Yes, we were worse than both of them. But we are better than both of them. Ipso facto, Italians teams are just awful.
Serie A might score more than ever, but it's still slow as fuck; players have twice as much time there than in Europe, where you dont have a second to think and have to improvise on the spot or rely on automated moves.

Italians fucked themselves with Calciopoli.

Spain would NEVER do something like that to their football.
