Barcelona vs Bayern was 0-0 till the 75th min

Neymar dove, All Bayern players crowded the ref to give him a 2nd yellow and send him off, that was the time Neuer chose to release the ball to Bernat who lost it with everyone out of position
And my point was that Pep's initial gambit which was a back three of Rafinha, Boateng and Benatia, was stretched horribly out of shape in the opening 15 minutes, where Barca missed several opportunities. Suarez was put through by a Messi head flick and Neymar had a shot blocked from a few yards. The fact that it remained 0-0 until the 75th minute was an anomaly.

How is this a debate?

.
Because apparently even Shannon from Scunthorpe and her dog could win the treble with Barca, force top managers to play like extreme under dogs and create (statically) the two best teams in PL history.

Oh come on, you know we could and should have been 3-0 down within the first 25 minutes if it wasn't for an absolute world class performance from Neuer (he won 2 point blank 1v1s within that period and it had absolutely nothing to do with the coaching). Pep knew he fecked up crazily and it was his reversal to a more pragmatic back four that even gave us a slight chance to not be demolished after he went into the tie with a completely suicidal 3 at the back formation...
I replied before seeing this, but agree 100%

vs Chelsea 2012 you remember Messi missed a penalty?
vs Barcelona 2015, Imagine a Bayern without Robben Ribery Alaba
Almost every time Pep got knocked out, his sides created more chances that they failed to put away
The pen he missed was a dive from cesc who admitted it after.
