Harsh to say Donnarumma could have done better? Great touch and strike though.

You look at Dortmund and wonder why United are so shit. Like City and Real Madrid's a mountain to get to, but a fully functioning decent side shouldnt be impossible? Beating Burnley at home would do.

Enrique is ruining this tie for PSG by starting Mbappe upfront when you have Muani and Ramos on the bench. Makes no sense when Mbappe is world class on the left

Anyone watching on CBS? It’s my first experience and I’ve never heard anything like the reaction to that goal.

Madrid haven’t exactly lit up the tournament. Been awful twice against city and first leg against Bayern they was outplayed.
They even weren't the better team against RB Leipzig and got outplayed away and home.

Things like tactical balance, structure, etc, are lesser issues. Plebeian concerns, not something teams with plot armor should worry about

Got to love the nature of cup competitions. A team that isn't good enough to be in the top 4 best teams in Germany is around 135 minutes away from being the best or second best team in all of Europe.

PSG’s passing is horrendous. Everyone keeps drilling the ball to one another.

Unpopular opinion but Sabitzer is a very good midfielder, impressed me each time he played for us and Dortmund. Should have got more of an opportunity.

Yes, bit like Amrabat now. He barely got chance, but you have one bad games these days and fans write you off. Would of been cheaper and more durable than signing Mount.

What the feck is wrong with Mbappe? He's been absolutely brutal tonight and the games against Barcelona despite scoring

Go watch his Messi compilation. I proudly lived through that Era.

It’s fecking weird. He reacted to the goal and then it was like he thought that wasn’t good enough so he described it again and three more times after it.

Since when did psg become such a hit and hope team on the ball.
They may have gone further in this year's tournament but when you take away Neymar (or even Messi) and you're suddenly left with a serious lack of creativity. Mbappe being completely useless in these big CL ties this year hasn't helped.

Whenever a player rolls around like that it's probably not a foul. If it is a foul that rolling around should negate it.

probably too long at PSG for his own good. the stats are there, but his overall game isn't really all that these days.
