Luca Marelli - referee specialist of TV channel DAZN - thought it was a 100% penalty kick and a second yellow card for defender Loic Bade.There was not even a var check .
I'm actually happy that they didn't call that penalty. You just know that this team would sit back after equalizing to defend the draw instead of pushing for the win. And since there were still a few minutes to play I wouldn't be surprised if Sevilla scored another one because of that.

add to that, that when we are trailling the score, every, totally every clearance of the defender is sending the ball to the opposition goalkeeper or throw in, we never try to keep the ball. Even when there is a lot of space to keep the ball, we wont risk it.
Also there is always 2, max 3 players attacking, rest will join after 2 minutes or so.
I would add to that our most often used attack pattern which is -> Pass the ball around on either of the wings between a winger, a central mid and Di Maria. Repeat this process for 2-3 minutes without getting close to the opponents penalty area. Pass the ball back to a central defender. Central defender proceeds to kick a long ball into the opposition penalty area for the GK to catch or an easy clearence by their defenders.

Holy shit lol. I would barely pay €29 to watch a EL game, even if it's a semi final. We've turned into Chelsea or Spurs without the PL fanfair and London mark up. Scandalous.
