[CL] Atlético de Madrid 2-0 JUVENTUS [February 20th, 2019] (2 Viewers)

[Ronn]

They've been playing bad lately, won 1-0 against Rayo but they were horrible apparently, some say their first half was one of their worst and they've recently been beaten by Real at home. But still they rise up to the occasion against good teams in general so nothing taken for granted

They were bad. Their goal was a fluke, and probably even offside. They needed a super save from Oblak in stoppages to hold on.

Game of Thrones of clubs. Solid 4 years ago, progressively going down the gutter since then

Season 8 is out soon (April) and I'm ready for the shitstorm. But hopefully they'll get their shit together to end the series on a high

I haven't followed la Liga at all for some time. How have Athletico been doing this year?

Real really destroyed them at their own turf and they didn't look that solid in defense.Nothing special .We will get a good result Wednesday.

What language does the girl speak after the Asian? It looks like Japanese ? @JuveJay

Bruh I'm not Japanese, but that doesn't sound like nihongo.

Goal was definitely offside. And they were also bad but when they were 1-0 ahead they were "conserving energy".

Yeah I thought it was offside too. I thought La Liga implemented VAR better but I was wrong.
It was obvious they were looking forward to CL match as well. Diego Costa was brought in from 60th minute despite being visibly unfit not playing for more than 2 months. Morata was utterly useless in a match where they could not counter, and I lost count how many times he was offside. It feels good to win our CL group, and not having to play home in the first leg for a change. We can absorb pressure in Madrid.

I feel like the team has become pretty suited to playing home first and away later so that's a shame. We had many great match ups, Dortmund (2015), Spurs (2018), Barca (2017), almost for Bayern (2016), Real Madrid (2015), etc.

But Morata was not interfering with the play so the goal was deemed legal

Thankfully last year quarter final first leg vs Real Madrid was not mentioned

What? he provided the assist.

Yes when cross arrived Morata was in offside position but was not interfering in build up play

Guys they have performed really well against big teams this season other than the last game against R Madrid. They are great at keeping the score line down. Super organised.

I think we need to throw them off their game by creating confusion with the below tactic.

———————-Woj————————
Cancelo—chie—-Bon———-AS
——manbro-pjan—dybala———-
Bern————CR7————Dcosta

Athletico will be so confused who to mark.

[vodka]

Atletico's bad form gives me hope, otherwise I would be very nervous. Now not so much, I think we will win

 

[Al Birdie]

Wtf is this talk about MDS as the defensive option? Just because he is incapable of attacking, doesn't make him a defensive option. His defensive "skill" is what effectively kicked us out last year in the opening 3 minutes of the QF.

 

[JuveJay]

You've watched Cancelo trying to defend?

It's better to play at home first.

Pressure and tactical flexibility/predictability play a part.

If you're chasing you can only attack while the other team has multiple options to choose from.
