Average European side, this Roma team.

Dzeko is a proper player. He's been superb tonight, with some average dross around him.

Voted the best city in the world
Maybe it’s the fact they’re still 3 up or maybe they’re just as shit in defense as others are suggesting - but Madrid will not miss half these chances Roma are :lol:

It really wont they are dodgy as feck and Ronnie has gone off the boil.
Not a chance they play as open as Roma in the first leg. I don’t think Liverpool concede at this rate and beat Madrid.

Id Stoke and West Brom can hold them then Madrid should be fine. Hell (in my own words) one of the worst United teams in my lifetime can do them, then Madrid certainly can.

Two of the most luckiest finalist in a long, long time.

Roma could literally be winning the tie with the chances they’ve created in the last half hour or so.

They've been the best team in the Champions League this season tbh. Battered more or less everyone that they played.
Ah yes. All the European powerhouses. They’ve played one decent team who they seem to have the hoodoo over

I'm not watching but what bad decisions have happened?

Two missed pens and a wrongly disallowed goal?
1) Chance for Roma in the Liverpool box, Lovren dramatically throws himself to ground winning them a soft FK.
2) An identical situation in the Roma box not punished and Wijnaldum scores
3) Karius as the last man brings down Dzeko in the box, wrongly flagged for offside
4) Alexander-Arnold as the last man blocks a goal bound strike in his own box with his hand, nothing given.

And that's just from the top of my head. Shocking officiating. I can guarantee probably only of these will be brought up in the post-match.

Roma have had a number of chances/openings today

Should have had 2 penalties too

Madrid weren't convincing, but neither have Liverpool, though the scoreline is comfortable

How can a defence containing two Southampton players and a Hull player in defence; a shit ex-Sunderland player, a shit ex-Newcastle player and a shit ex-City reject in midfield be reaching a CL final completely and utterly blows my mind.
Inb4 Klopp is a genius, la.

Feel a bit sorry for Dzeko here, he's been very good but all of Roma's attacking options barring Sheraway are rubbish.
