My partner fell asleep before the equaliser at the end of normal time. Woke up just in time to see Barça lose.

Go on then, predictions for tonight?

I will go with 2-0 PSG win

You’d hope for another Rice epic but I think PSG are just too good at the mo so I’d go with a comfortable win as well, might even be 3-0.

I’d love to be wrong though.

3-3 but we won on penalties 4-0 and I scored mine.

Full 90 minute game on full size pitch is fucking brutal.

After one of the best European pair of legs in memory yesterday it’s nice to see Arsenal lowering the tone and going full Stoke City in a champions league semi final.

fucking var man. absolutely gross.

bring villa back

Martinelli is so so bad. He gets the occasional goal (usually by luck through a deflection or something), but he is just not CL level the way Saka is. He’s extremely predictable and without a clear central threat, there really is no point in him playing so wide as the defenders don’t need to worry about being drawn to the wing because there’s nobody within the box for him to pass to.

Not sure what’s happened to Odegaard these last few months but his confidence seems really low. It was about 80th minute where he was carrying it right into the box. It was fairly open for him to take a shot and instead he passed it away to the edge of the box and the attack was then wasted.

The players seem over coached to walk the ball into the net when they’d be better placed playing with freedom and more verticality/directness.

He can be frustrating but I think that’s going a bit far, his goal against Madrid was so well taken and it properly killed off the game. He’s no goal machine though but then they aren’t easy to come by now.
