What to say..
- AS is the worst I;ve ever seen
- MDS is less worse but I dislike him
- Pjanic is probably ill but playing like a wank
- midfield is acting like pussy's
Haven't read any of the comments but no, it's just people shitting themselves. Apart from a couple of shit moments by Matuidi and De Sciglio making poor choices there hasn't been a massive threat from Atletico so far. It's pretty much what you'd expect from Atletico vs Juve, pretty tight and not many chances.
Just as expected. More relaxed now. I think we wanted to contain them in the first half. Let's see what we will do in the 2nd. Atlético is a disgusting team. A
Bad setup by Allegri. Not re the starting XI but players' positioning and movements.
Defending with only 3 in midfield while not committing either of the FBs forward. Ronaldo hanging out on the right. Helps neither in defense nor attack.
We have been. We've had the best chance the match. 60% of possession. More shots at their goal, from better positions, forced the best save of the match. Atletico didn't do a single thing after the FK from a Costa dive in the 29th minute.
If you think this is Atletico dominating us I have no idea what match you are watching.
Sandro isn't looking real good but that's what happens when the other team knows the focus is going to be down that left flank. Cancelo would make all the difference.
He had the most difficult job. He had to play against Costa, and the entire Atletico attacking strategy was intentionally focused on his spot. He wasn't good (nobody really was), but all in all not that bad either, considering all circumstances.
We survived the first half, that's all that matters in this encounter. We just need that 1 goal and we would be going back home as HUGE favorites to qualify.
