Real Madrid won the competition by playing balanced football. They were defensively astute when they needed to be, they were well as equally able to shift a gear in attack when they needed to do so.

People saying they parked their way to the CL are just desperately trying to suit their narrative.
They did park the bus. They gave away possession and defended deep. That’s parking the bus 101.

No that's not lol. Parking the bus would be what Chelsea did to Bayern in 2012. This is not even remotely close to that.

Infact Real looked more dominant in the 2nd half. What the hell is the wrong with you people. Don't even watch the game and write a load of nonsense.

Liverpool were also terrible against spurs in the champions League final few years back.
People try to pretend this wasn’t the case, but Spurs outplayed Liverpool far worse than they did us the season before in terms of possession and shots on goal. They just didn’t finish their chances. I actually gained a lot of respect for Klopp for adapting to use “Dinoball” tactics against Spurs and win that final.

Real Madrid did slightly better in the second half only because they had more space to push forward as Liverpool obviously needed a goal. But they still sat deep for the vast majority of the game.

They got outshot 24-4, dude. When we win a match like this, the forum has an aneurysm and if possible the Allegri bashing gets worse.

Besides, to your point, no one is comparing the abomination we witnessed at Juve this year to Madrid. Not in terms of players, or performances, or tactics. This is more so about the nonsense revisionism going on about our first Allegri spell and it being impossible to win a CL final playing the style we did then (which is now being called Dinoball too lol). We put in more progressive performances than what Real did today or Chelsea did last year in the 2015 and 2017 finals and ended up losing to better teams. Sometimes it just doesn’t work out.

Lol, exactly what we’ve been saying all this time about Juve. We do have the budget, yes, but Tici squandered it on turds like Arthur, Rabiot, Ramsey, Kulu etc.
Inter and Milan have better and more balanced squads than ours. Plus we lost Ronaldo before the season got going and Chiesa for half the season. Our team sucks and no other manager would have changed much for us this season.
