GWT: Champions League - Semifinals

[Sad People]

Lets go Vini Jr!!

 

[Tony Romo]

Toni Kroos, you are wonderful.

 

[hatterson]

Vini has pace, Bayern defenders not so much.

Yea I'm not sure Eric Dier vs Vini is a fair race

And Kim isn't exactly Usain Bolt either.

 

[cgf]

Bayern need to start converting on these openings.

...

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

I fully expect to watch Bayern impotently ping the ball around the outside of the box for the next 65 minutes.

This team desperately needs Tel's verticality

 

[Brunkmeister]

But football ain’t always fair. Bayern had the luck against Arsenal but might be unlucky here instead.

 

[Tony Romo]

Rough touch by Vini. Good play by Kim.

 

[Evilo]

That Bayern central D is catastrophic on the goal.
Kim going way too high for no reason and too slow to recover and Dier watching instead of plugging the hole.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

classic madrid. Do nothing for a while and first chance it's a goal

 

[Bringer of Jollity]

Musiala is dire.

 

[JoVel]

Arsenal fans should really stop excusing Arsenal's underperformance against Bayern as just bad luck.

Yeah, Muller has had his 30 min to make a difference, now it's time for a live body.

 

[luiginb]

Musiala is dire.

"Bambi" indeed tonight

Mazraoui ain't it either, no idea how you start him in his off position while you have two better offensive left backs available.

Yeah, that farmer's league team just got out classed

 

[Tony Romo]

Nacho, dude.

 

[cgf]

Nacho, dude.

Right? It's musiala, anybody can stop him

 

[Tony Romo]

Red, in my humble honest non bias opinion

 

[luiginb]

Right? It's musiala, anybody can stop him

That was his best play tonight, and the reason why even though I'm on his ass I still like him and see him as Germany's best left wing: the breaks in the rhythm and the verticality (which is also one of the reasons he losses so many balls tbf)

 

[cgf]

Smart of Mazraoui to commit that foul outside of the box.

Mazroui sucks bad. Bayern looks liable to concede every time Real attack.

 

[Tony Romo]

Feels like our set pieces need a LOT of work.

I just don't agree, he's made multiple runs like that already and more often than not when he gets the ball it sucks in a 2nd & 3rd defender.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Typical madrid game. Defend, have one chance and score.
Madrid are going to win this comfortably as expected.
I hate myself

 

[cgf]

Both teams' set pieces have been trash TBH

TT should bring Pavlovic on for Mazraoui and Tel on for Müller. Kimmich & Laimer at FB with Pavlovic-Goretzka behind Kane, Sane, Tel, & Musiala. Mazraoui is a good defender, but I'm not sure I trust him to make it through another half against Real without picking up a 2nd card
