They were 2 goals clear until the sending off. Going down to 10 in these huge games is simply suicide.
Champions League — quarter-finals and semi-finals draw
- Thread starter Red Star One
- Start date
Nonsense penalty to see you through to the knockouts, and even though you landed in 2nd place, you got the easiest opponent imaginable in R16.
Congrats on semi final, but lucky stars for sure are with you this season.
Think this is more about the Master and his apprentice, Enrique schooled Xavi in this game, look at that Barcelona starting 11, it really is the sum of its parts, besides the 17 year old wonder kid and a talented midfield that you can play around, they really are not all that!
What an absolute clown that ref for Barca-PSG was.
Mind you, I agree with the red and penalty.

Vitinha is class.
Pretty sure we were strongly linked with him before he went to PSG.

Spare it for tomorrow, you will be loaded after Ethiad.
Can't wait until we're back taking part in nights like these. Maybe by 2030
I don’t think he’s necessarily the answer in the long term, but I do agree he offers more than quite a few of your CMs. It’s weird, I think he looked pretty average for you at the time he was at Utd, but I guess everyone did that season so it’s probably unfair to single him out.
It's about time Barca got refballed. Romanian Mike Dean only gave them what they had coming.
Can't wait until City somehow make hard work of either of these like they did with the Chelsea and Inter byes in the finals....
What exactly is he crying about? Red has to give that and send the player of.
No disagreement here.
Even then, couldn't see going through in the next round. They're too fragile and miles away from what they were.
He had moments especially in the Carabo cup final, plus we knew he was recovering from an injury, for £15m terrible decision!
Yeah, and open highway for City... first b2b UCL since us.
I liked him too but he would have been another 10 pushing up the pitch with Bruno, McT, Mount, Casemiro and Mainoo along side him
Never a penalty against Newcastle at home. Would have been eliminated in the group stage with the defeat.
Yes we are. We are on course to finish 9th in the Premier League. We can’t even keep the ball against an Everton side.
The feck you on about? Just stating facts here. Watching how other teams handle similar situations is how we benchmark ourselves.
Dortmund doing a madness this season
I’m afraid I agree.
Very true.
We're tens of millions of miles away. Got a penalty that wasn't a penalty against Bournemouth away to rescue a draw at the weekend. We would've conceded 5+ tonight against Dortmund or PSG.
Not sure what game you were watching but it was one of the best refereeing performances I’ve seen. Got everything spot on.
Arsenal or Bayern are winning the CL.

Ya wee pussy
City double treble is very much on.
So it's PSG vs. Dortmund in the semis, right? That should be quite the high-octane stuff.
I don't think we can make this kind of claim since Barca played with 10 men for more than an hour.
Against PSG that was never going to work.
Psg winning the whole thing
The winner of that match gets their hands on the trophy. Neither PSG nor Dortmund stand a chance.
You'd fancy treble treble next season too. Let's see what they do in the market this summer.
Of course the quadruple comes back in and a possibility next season too
Already met in the groups. Dortmund had chances to knock them out too in the final game
Now we get to hear about how Barcelona are clearly not paying for referees and never have because they got a red card tonight.
We needed Atletico through, yes Dortmund play great football, but that plays into City's hand.
Atletico isn't too great, but perhaps might have fluked it
3 reds? Who got the third
It's a single game, there's always a chance. But it's a 70/30 chance or something.
They were second best 11 v 11 with a terrible midfield that Barca could get by time and time again. They were also out coached in the first leg. It’s just a baffling, baffling take.
That's ridiculous. If Harry Kane wins a trophy the dead will walk the Earth.
Someone bald guy on the Barca bench.
I don't have any dog in the race or a personal beef with Man City. I'm just here to enjoy football.
Atlético just ruins the fun and I'm glad to see them out of the picture.
Oh yeah, surprises are always possible.
