Why is it never "Phil Foden! From the slums of a Stockport Estate!" 

 

[spacemunky]

Don't know what was worse, the shot or the dance.

[UniFox21]

Maatsen showing exactly that he was playing for Burnley last season with that lapse 

[RoboFox]

Not a great time for an absolute howler.

Or more poetic still " Jamie Vardy, from the shittest bits of Sheffield!"

I'm abroad, and I've got Alan Smith on co-comms getting about as excited as he ever gets (i.e. deadpan), so it could be worse.

Dortmund had the chances but you just knew RM would take their chances better

[st albans fox]

Taking adeyemi’s pace off meant Madrid could push their midfield further forwards and it changed the momentum of the game 

[spacemunky]

Well, that would have been a beautiful goal.

[Super_horns]

Shame that was offside 
 

No VAR fuss .

Swapping Adeyami for Reus was a huge mistake. Reus for Brandt maybe, but that pace from the wingers was needed 

[Jonezy]

Real Madrid are just monsters in this tournament. You just have to respect that. Of course their fans will be arrogant tossers about it and we just have to suffer them. 

[UniFox21]

Think we've had a "XYZ is potentially playing his last game for Madrid/Dortmund" on average every 10 minutes in this game

Yep. - wasn’t even that he was effective but Kronos had to play deeper with camavinga because Madrid’s defence isn’t quick enough 

without that threat they could push higher up the pitch 
as you say - the wrong call

Did Ancellotti at Everton really happen or was it a silly dream I had after too much cheese and wine? Everton ffs! 

[StanSP]

Real are just ridiculous in this competition. You wonder when their dominance will end. Like, when is the next time they won't win it for 10 years or something

Agreed - was strange.

A bit like Sven at Notts County (sorry, @spacemunky..).
