Saw it live, you saying they edited in couple minutes footage just before kick off?
That's always a possibility, yes. I didn't think they ever did this, but a couple of months ago one of the commentators on Belgian tv made a remark about this. It had something to do with images of a manger shouting at his players in a frantic fashion, but apparently he was seated while they showed it.

Craig Burley the fucking dumb @Scottish bastard :)P)

And yeah, he's deluded. Love how they talk about why Barca didn't win and barely a mention about Juventus. English language coverage of Italian teams is pathetic.
When I was younger Craig Burley was my favourite Celtic player. Of course I have since found out he's a bellend.

I skipped through that video to about the start of each 'minute'. First time they were talking about Juve was at 15 minutes. I noticed through the game yesterday the commentators were saying every 5 minutes 'They did it against PSG' or 'Right, this is it!' as though we weren't even playing. The Champions League is the Barca Story not anything more. Real Madrid are the villain team so there's only one other option to repeatedly cover.

I realised though that they don't talk about Juventus due to a lack of respect it's that they haven't got a fucking clue. Everything from Andrea Bonucci (or whatever it was) last week to the commentators being 'surprised to see' Mandzukic on the left for us. Even calling Dybala our most important player because he scored those two belters last time. They don't know a thing about us but I get the feeling that that's all about to change in the next few years.

Monaco (21:16)
Real M. (28:15)
Atletico M. (13:5)
Juventus (17:2)

These are the goal differences of all 4 teams in this year's CL.
The numbers tell the story we all know by now. Real Madrid are a team that can score at any time. Atletico can defend, Monaco can attack.

I hear people wanting Real in the semis, but I'd much rather avoid them, despite the good history we have against them in knockouts. They have so many players who can score from anything, anytime. With Atletico we can nullify each other and those two matches can go anywhere, with a single shot deciding the whole tie.

That's why I prefer Monaco. I didn't watch them yesterday but I watched their previous 3 matches against City and Dortmund. They can press and attack well for 45-60 minutes and then they usually collapse. If someone can contain their attack, it's us, while their defensive display is even below Barca level. Of the remaining three teams, they suit our game the most.
And then we can hope that Atletico and Real will murder eachother and get tons of yellows and red.
Exactly what my friend,a neutral dying for Liverpool fan just stated about who should we best draw tomorrow.
