Just to solidify the notion that Wenger runs Arsenal.This is so frustrating. Its obvious thr players have quit on Wenger after losing to Crystal Palace, he's been there too long and now his instruction is falling on deaf ears. He needs to go. He's alienated his best player and the best striker in the BPL, Alexis Sanchez because he thinks he can find someone better I guess. Wenger over- pursues the transfer marker with more misses than hits and then employs puzzling lineups and predictable formations. The protesters are going to torch north London, this is going to be an infuriating next "two" years
That really was a masterful job. They had Chelski mystified for large portions of the game. It's not like they were hunkering down either. There was still plenty of attack after the 1st and 2nd goals. Great win for Morinho since he had yet to get that signature win. Hopefully they can continue the momentum and beat Anderlecht this week to get to the semi's.
Casemiro should have been sent off for the foul against Robben, already had a yellow Vidal CLEARLY played the ball, should never have been sent off Ronaldo way offside But Ancelotti completely messed up with his substitutions: Costa for Ribery, are you kidding me? I never want to see Costa in a Bayern jersey again, seriously. Also, you leave Lewandowski in at that stage. Crazy substitutions all around.
Ref destroyed the game, this is utter bullsh**. 1. Makes absolutely no sense to call the penalty without a card, would've been yellow-red for Casemiro and 40min advantage for Bayern. 2. Bullsh** send-off for Vidal. 3. TWO(!!!) offside goals.
Think Lewandowski wanted to be subbed out, still hasn't recovered from his injury. Not sure about Ribery, but he didn't get mad either.
Well... ****! It's heartbreaking how our guys fought back against all odds and then got heavily disadvantaged by the referee. Really proud of Hummels and Boateng, don't even want to imagine the pain they were going through sacrificing their bodies. Key players going down, missing penalties, disadvantaged by the ref. We're fn cursed. Good thing there's no big tournament this summer. Hope all our players stay away from that stupid Confederations Cup. Even with Lahm gone, we'll be back even stronger.
Would be pretty infuriated right now if I was a Bayern fan. The ref bottled a lot in favor of Real Madrid this game. They really should introduce video refereeing on scoring plays at least.
That was really unfortunate. Vidal had no business being sent off. Reputation card there. It is weird Ronaldo was so offsides when the ball was being served and the defender was running towards him. That usually gets called every time because the gap is widest at the beginning of the ref having to pay attention. Oh well. RM still lives. Please somebody kill them. For real, though, Ronaldo is amazing and it is a tragedy he is such a terrible person on the pitch.
He is a very good player, but a pompous ass. I don't wish injury upon anyone, including him, but I love seeing him lose. Germany eliminated Portugal a few times in major tournaments, and I always enjoy seeing his whiny face when that happens.
So true, this guy is constantly being a b**** in media interviews, not loyal to our club and doesn't even deliver when it matters. Send his azz to China or the overrated Premier League, he's only in it for money and fame.
Well, we were also gifted two penalties, so it's kind of disingenuous to blame it all on the ref. I'm much more upset about Ancelotti and his substitutions. I would have subbed out Vidal after 50 minutes, you could see it coming miles away that he wouldn't make it through the 90 minutes, even though the foul that resulted in him being sent off didn't look like much of a foul to me. Still, he should have been subbed out. Especially considering how much we sucked after Martinez' red card in Munich. Just absolutely baffles me. Kind of makes me question Ancelotti's abilities, to be honest.
The one in Munich, for sure. But the one today was a clear penalty. Not a lot of contact, but he hits him on the leg. At that speed it's enough to take a man down and therefore a justified penalty. Well, anyone but Barca or Real now.
Forza Juventus! And while I like Ancelotti personally, I am disappointed with his decisions in this semi-final. I'm ready to bring on Nagelsmann whenever and start a dynasty. Maybe after next year. Give Ancelotti one more try.
