i tell you one thing

If it was Busquets instead of Nani, the defender receiving the studs in the chest would have gotten a booking for simulation

Have to feel a bit sorry for Man Utd after that one.

They had set up well, were pretty well in control of the game and were ahead, only for the ref to change everything.

Only real criticism I'd have of Man Utd would be that they didn't change their defensive set-up after the red card. They were still trying to mark, even though they didn't have enough players to do that. Should have just been a case of going to a bog standard two lines of four playing zonally and trying to deny Real any space in dangerous areas.

Real Madrid were poor. They either need to get a more attacking RB or get a RW who looks to go on the outside of his man. At the moment, there's nothing to stretch an opponent into covering that side, because there is no serious threat on that flank. Because of that, it is easier than it should be for a team to clog things up and make it harder for Real to play down their very dangerous left flank.

Real's defending in the last twenty minutes was pathetic.

Didn't think Nani's challenge had either sufficient malice (there was no malice) or recklessness to warrant a red card. If people consider that dangerous and worth a red card, I want to see red cards for all overhead kicks when there is anyone within a few yards of the player attempting the kick.

Also, you confessed to being an United fan already

Used to sympathize with them, not so much now-a-days. Truly I could careless now.

This is attempted murder totally diff from what Nani did

 

[Red]

So, is this a penalty+red card?

Certainly a penalty. No distance between the players, but if you go waving your hand around in the air there you are asking for trouble.

Also also didn't think there was much wrong with the goal that Real had disallowed in the first half.

Man Utd can complain all they want about the red card, but it was just a bad decision. No sign of the ref showing any bias through the rest of the match.

 

[JuveJay]

Agree with all of what you have said, Red. Also, United shouldn't completely blame the referee for their exit, even if he did alter how the game panned out. United had enough chances against a mediocre looking Real Madrid defence over the two legs to have gone through here regardless.

Mourinho might have been overly humble when he said the best team lost, but he knows his team were in a lot of trouble.

For me Manure can only blame Nani for the loss. Retarded challenge and a deserved red card. I know they usually don't show a red for that in the Premiership but that's their problem.

Considering the disallowed goal and the handball by Rafael I'd say the ref was more in favor of Manure than Real.

No English teams in the CL QFs.

No English teams in the CL QFs.

xD It was either that or no Spanish teams.

 

[Trequartista]

it should have been a PK ... maybe a YC, not a RC though.

No that is unintentional. It should have been a penalty, as it is a clear handball, but no card.

Nah, he headed it onto the player's arm.

I would have redded Nani but it would have been a yellow for the foul and a yellow for the play-acting.

Agreed, penalty and yellow card was what was needed.

anyone else realise how bad kaka was?

he really is awful ATM

he had that one good shot that almost went in, but other than that, yes.

[Red]

I can't imagine Keane not going mental if one of his teammates got sent off for that challenge.

 

[j0ker]

Keane going Vialli style.

 

[Gian]

He's been finished since 2009, nothing new really.

Thought he was better than Ozil today, who's really having a poor season imo.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

No English teams in the CL QFs.

1996 was the last time that happened

 

[Kasaki]

Thought he was better than Ozil today, who's really having a poor season imo.

I believe in the last two seasons he ha more assist than Xabi and Xavi combined

 

[ALC]

Ozil hasn't been having a poor season imo.

You know RTS has no rights to show the game tonight? Not just tonight but I mean every match that's being played on Tuesday?

Mourinho said that whole world will stop in order to watch this clash. So I opened Blic and I see this comment:

Murinjo, gresis. Pitaj Tijanica zasto se taj sudar nece gledati Srbiji. Pitaj ga, majku mu glavatu jebem.

I died laughing.

majktu mu glavatu jebem
