Rennes against Boys: the UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE 2020/2021 thread

if the first-leg winners all prevail we are faced with a situation where man city might be the least evil club left in it

and that is worrying

best half of football I've seen this season. terrific stuff.

Absolutely

And city back brilliantly this half

Keeper should always track that ball for me, if someone gets a touch its still better than watching a lob go in from thirty yards

Oh the state of that wall holy shit

Cunts tackle, red all day and lucky if gundogan not badly hurt

If city played with a forward theyd have three more

You can take the Poch out of Tottenham, but you can't take etc etc

Cant argue that

Great fuckin match that but mbappe took the night off

They should have made the guy lying down stand in the wall imo.

Ex-@ManUtd manager Sir Alex Ferguson visited the PSG team hotel on this morning. The Lowry Hotel is currently only hosting the PSG squad, with no other guests currently staying there due to coronavirus restrictions.

lol

Neymar is a greedy shit and its costing his team here

Could be a very good week in Europe for those disgraceful ESL teams everyone is so disgusted by.

Impeccable counter

It would be good if that kind of thing wasnt a red card imo

lol

These cunts are like children it’s hilarious

Orange all day trevor

Another one there

Ref giving them a benefit

All four finalists from England for the second time in three years would be pretty bleak tbh.

ESLland rather than England tbf.

Nothin unbleak about oligarchy or shadow financing teams from any country owning the game tbh

But we're told the stout-hearted football fans of England would give up reaching Champions League finals by beating PSG in the semis for 51% fan ownership and midweek Carabao Cup games against Rotherham Utd.

If twere offered

christ this Madrid team is dire

It's completely mystifying how badly both Sarri and Lampard managed Kante.

kante, I was just msging friends about this, I did lol when fat Frank dropped him completely and sari's positional messing around was unnecessary too (to accomodate jorginho), tuchel is currently living at ngolo's house and wrapping every surface in cotton wool. he know's he's a winner, full stop.

Hazard : a sad shadow in this dad's army real team, no loving from zidane coming off, on the pitch at the end, laughing and joking with Chelsea subs, Madrid fans will be going mental

Romance of the cup the final everyone wanted

Is this is the worst season of football ever?

8,000 fans from the UK travelling to Turkey to watch City v Chelsea seems perfectly sensible

Fine if Turkey can be persuaded to keep them.

Sure that post-match Hazard image won’t be a big deal in Madr ... ah pic.twitter.com/e5pJih2RiX

If shonda isnt all over this then idk what

Turkey is in full lockdown until at least May 17. My work colleague is in the Ankara suburbs and tough luck if you can't persuade the gendarmerie that you're grocery shopping. Still, Istanbul, eh? Maybe, JUST MAYBE.

xp guardian journos plagiarising less prominent journos tweets is it

I'm sure they are taking the defeat well in the Madrid pre-ah. pic.twitter.com/AcFiDaPmC2

No suggestion that English clubs might be affected yet.

Why would they be exempt

The only reason I can imagine is they all dropped out and the rest kept the idea alive longer.

Ah, justice

So Man City v Chelsea again next year?

Hate to admit it but the game has been great so far.

Is this on YouTube? Sounds like a great game tbh.

Yes, on YouTube.

It's not bad at all for a game with no palatable outcome

Nice appetiser for the Euros, the surrogate 2022 world Cup

happy for tuchel and havertz

Happy for Kanté!

Really wanted that Mahrez ball to go in for the game to go extra time, it was a fun match.

Chelsea are scum but pretty hilarious that Guardiola has once again failed abjectly to do the very thing he was hired to do.

sacked in the morning

Please.

Wanted the final annulled and every Chelsea fan who went to Porto to get covid but they totally played City.

don't like de bruyne but when a guy spends five minutes on the ground concussed, maybe don't immediately start grabbing and patting his head once he gets up
