Surely nobody expected any different though?
I didn’t expect much, but I expected some excitement.

Instead it’s just been shithousery and squabbling. In hindsight it was always on the cards. I’m just disappointed I wasted a beer watching it

Absolutely ridiculous thing from him. Regardless of how people might feel about football in other countries, you just know that's a fecking stupid thing for him to say. Just keep your mouth shut, there is no point.

Shouldn't we discuss that in the age of 50 plus games for teams per season we should somehow skip overtime since 95% of the time it is absolutely useless and just two teams not wanting to lose? Bring back sudden death?
Golden goal made teams defend even more. Its why they got rid of it

I think this has been an enjoyable final to watch honestly. I don’t get all the complaining about the sidelines from the BT commentators I think it adds to the spectacle when there’s a bit of drama.
I enjoyed it till around 70 mins. Since then, it's not just been a lot of shithousing, its also been utterly awful football.

I loved golden goal. Pure tension whenever either team was in their attacking third. Which unfortunately didn't happen much.

Others have had to publicly apologise for spouting that sort of rubbish

Sorry, I know I'm not exactly being forced to watch it but God damn this competition is so often such a miserable watch.

I think Romas subs haven’t helped it, Belotti and Wijnaldum look miles off of Abraham and a half fit Dybala.

What was the context? Why bring nationalities?

career ending injuries every few minutes, people dead on the pitch, this has been a nightmare to watch

After watching this game I definitely can see Manchester City lifting pretty easily another 5 trophies in the 2023 given their opponents: Manchester United (FA Cup), Inter (UCL), Sevilla/Roma (UEL), Arsenal (Community Shields) and whoever they face in the Club World Cup.
