GWT: UCL R16 First Legs

[Luigi Habs]

I thought Liverpool goal was undeserved. Inter has been better in the 2nd half.

Pavard clears a ball off the line with Bayern 1-0 down already. This draw is a lot more interesting than expected, Salzburg have some amazing kids.

 

[Evilo]

Switched games now.

 

[koyvoo]

Game over

 

[Live in the Now]

That'll be that.

 

[Burner Account]

Absurd ball with the weak foot by TAA

 

[Burner Account]

Also great job by Konate to leave it lol

 

[Live in the Now]

VVD just too beast mode in the air. Throws Diaz to the ground while winning that header lol.

 

[Chimaera]

Pay him all the money.

Liverpool wore them down, Inter look spent

 

[Chimaera]

There's no tactic/approach that works every time. If the game ended sixty seconds earlier, it's a master stroke. Leave alone, approach aside, they played very poorly.

I think it was less about away or not and recognizing there was a real chance they likely could have been out of it before half time.

Kingsley Coman with equalizer

Tie game now in Salzburg.

Yeah they were victims of their own good play here. They played so well that the manager made one sub because he didn't want to take any of them off. He left them out there to die.

 

[Evilo]

And they're old too.

 

[Live in the Now]

Just glad we won. Until they tired out that was quite poor. Konate and VVD played great though. Tough to get great scoring chances playing against those two.

 

[Live in the Now]

Record btw. Nobody ever did that before.

I thought he has been very poor since the AFCON.
Good for him to get a goal but hardly threatening performance from him.

 

[Savant]

It's offbase if you think the difference between the two is that Donnarumma isn't a "fulltime starter". The context is highly different for both goalies. PSG are playing Navas half the game because he's a world class goalie.

So is Courtois. Tie breaker goes to the full time player.

…Only Mo Salah…

 

[Juve]

It's disappointing to see another Italian team fail in Europe. I have no hope for Juventus......

 

[cgf]

Am I the only one watching the Salzburg-Bayern game? Your loss, guys.

That was a fun game, both teams left a lot of goals on the pitch.

 

[Duchene2MacKinnon]

Messi getting killed by the French media for his performance seems unjust tbh

 

[Evilo]

I'm a bit torn on this. I certainly don't rate his game as high as you do (you had him 3rd I think), but he was still the guy who made the most progressed meters with the ball.
His missed penalty cristalizes the critics, as well as his reaction on Mbappe's goal.

And his "celebration" with the team after the game. I hate seeing him like this. Emo Messi.

Ya I had Verrati and Mbappe ahead of him but I can’t think of any other psg player who played better. He could’ve easily had 2 assists his link up play was still elite as well. People will point to the penalty it is what it is. I just noticed the French media are quick to discredit his matches.

Not sure I get the celebration what happened there?
