Yeah. Why not. Why not let an Atleti monument play the last 5 meaningless minutes just to show that he's a Barca bitch now. God these cunts..
It's extra funny because Arda said on some interview main reason he left Atletico is because they were too defensive, had to track back majority of the game and when you go forward you barely get support etc.

The ref has had a great game outside of that Torres red for me. I think it was more of a careless challenge, almost as if he's too old to slow down and it was more clumsy than intentional. It's not enough for a second yellow to me.

But he had to know he was going to make his life a living hell after he made the decision. 10 man Atleti with Barca playing 100% of the match in their box. What ref would sign up for that?

Younger Messi would have scored that
Messi will decline sooner than Ronaldo. His game relies more on pure speee than Ronaldo's and he's not the athlete Ronaldo is either. I don't think Messi will keep playing at the same level well into his 30's. On the other hand I can see Ronaldo score 40 goals as a 35 year old, much like I'd still be confident in buying Zlatan.

Did you notice when messi fell, he ran straight into the player ?

Younger, much more agile at speed Messi, would have banked hard to the left, and stift it over the keepers feet into the right corner.

He's loosing his agility at speed. Ronaldo has not visually decayed physically

It was one single moment, Zach.

Bayern would have the midfield and isolate their forwards, they'd make the game. Bayern is the only team who can go against barcelona, and win possession
They can do nothing against their counter attacks. The only 2 teams who could stop Barca are us or Atletico, and we've seen how that went tonight or last Summer.
