We have different opinions on these incidents and that's fine. But you acting all self-righteous about this and complaining about us complaining is rather ironic. It's perfectly fine for us to be upset about certain incidents we view as being factors in the outcome. If you read my discussion with Swag, I've said multiple times that I'm upset more so that not one of the three fouls on Pogba was called, and more so the re outside the box, one of which have Barca the counter for their second goal. We always know a penalty is going to have be pretty blatant for it to be awarded in a CL final. So that's not the end of the world, even if I think it was pretty cut and dry penalty from watching replays. Considering the ref called every little contact against Barca, the two thee fouls on Pogba should have been called.
I don't subscribe at all to UEFAlona crap or conspiracies. I do think the ref was poor and called the game in a way that favoured Barca by not allowing any physicality, but that was to be expected. What was not expected was Pogba being fouled 3 separate times and not a single one of them being called. So I'm upset about that 1 day after the final, as those 3 foul non-calls were factors in the way the game went.
Do I think we would have won if they aren't called? We may have, the chances were there, but in all likelihood Barca overwhelms us anyways and wins, I just don't like that the match turned as quickly as it did by allowing back to back fouls on Pigba that directly led to Suarez's goals.
I'm allowed to be upset about this for a couple days. Many others are too. Many others agree with me.
I don't really think we were robbed of a victory. I think poor refereeing made a likely win for Barca a guaranteed win for Barca. That's my right to think this. As it is your right to think differently. But for you and others to be complaining about us being upset about these incidents is equally absurd and you should leave us alone to deal with the loss and our interpretation of these incidents how we want to.
I seriously doubt any of us are going to be freaking out about this a week from now, let alone a month. So stop with self-righteous stuff about how your way is the only right way to react. It isn't. Barca deserved to win, the ref was poor and made that win more likely with a couple missed calls at a crucial juncture. One doesn't exclude the other. That's my take away from the match.
Anyways. I'm proud of this team, I'm prid of their performance, and proud that even after going down 2-1 we still pressed to score with Pogba putting a free header over an open net and Pereyra and Llorente bungling what should have been a brilliant chance in the box late on. They put in a gritty and determined performance and I'm excited to see what next year brings.
