2016-17 Champions League

Can't say I disagree with any of this tbh. Bayern especially unimpressed me on their home soil.

Vidal missing the penalty (which was called incorrectly) was the turning point of the whole match. Bayern was completely dominating, i guess missing that penalty killed their momentum. I wanted Bayern - Madrid to be the final honestly, i dont like teams who have a defensive playstyle reaching the final because games like that bore me. Also looking forward to watch El clasico this sunday.

Vidal shoulda been sent off 10 minutes before. What can i say about Robben, hes notorious for diving just like ronaldo so it shouldn't have been a penalty. Ramos OG came from an offside from Lewa, ill give you that ronaldo's second goal was offside but the third was debatable, it was the linesman's fault for being slow. Then vidal comes out bitching to the press when it's his fault Bayern lost. Madrid was the better team in both games and certainly deserves the pass.

The tackle on Robben WAS a penalty, he tackled him without getting the ball - simple as that and there was contact so it's not even debatable. You said because he is notorious for diving it wasn't a penalty? So no matter what he does it's a dive because of his reputation? I would take the view that he always over-exaggerates contact, not dives - completely different. He did this in that tackle as well.

Also I get the impression you said because the linesman was slow it makes it onside? This makes no sense, if it was offside - it's offside obviously disregarding the linesman's decision.

I never said it makes it onside. I said it was debatable. Learn to read ffs.

Also, Robben dive against madrid. People don't fall for that, if there was touch it was minimal, are you seriously gonna tell me thats penalty worthy in a UCL quarter-final match? Literally dives the same way. Who cares if it was or not, again the decisions affected both teams and it was still 6-3 for the better team. Hala madrid losers

I am salty still.
Not a Bayern supporter by any means.
Even if you believe, wrongly, that Vidal's tackle deserved a second yellow, then Casemiro should have been off for certain.

Both goals were definitely offside. Credit to Madrid, not necessarily their fault the refs got it wrong, but it really makes seeing a lack of bias difficult.

I feel the same way bro, and I really didn't care who won. Just the fact there's controversy and doubt surrounding such a gaudy fixture is enough to get upset over.

I'm more disappointed in Bayern for a lot of obvious reasons though.

I can't be. They played really good football in the second leg. The game was scrappy, from both sides, which makes me think Vidal was playing within the pace of the game; officials called it loosely. I think it's hard to play with 10 men, against Madrid and bad decisions. That's just me.

I was moreso referencing the first leg and the missed opportunities. But I agree.

I am not beefing you so please don't take my opinion as a personal attack.

are you seriously gonna tell me thats penalty worthy in a UCL quarter-final match?
This makes no sense to me at all. A penalty or a free kick should be the same decision regardless of the stature of the match which you refer to.

The foul against Robben was a penalty. Bayern Munich got robbed with the red card. They were playing better football than Madrid until the red card happened. The goal scored by Ronaldo assisted by Ramos was the next terrible decision that the match officials missed.

Not a UCL game but anyone catch the Barca-Real game today? Crazy good gm.

Yeah i did. Very good game, madrid had its chances and didn't manage to capitalize. They deserved to lose this clasico. I thought the game ending 2-2 was a strike of luck but that last minute goal was well deserved for barca.

 

[nevernotspurs]

Yuck Classico so commercial and boring now

 

[Syfiends]

Mmmmmm Madrid winning it all again my boys.
