Champions League 2018-2019

[Jograves 357]

Messi still carried a threat every time he had the ball yesterday. Coutinho, Rakitic, Alba, and Roberto were all invisible yesterday. I don't watch Barca every week but when I have, Rakitic always plays well. He was terrible over both legs I thought. Alba wasn't even invisible. He contributed to a couple of our goals. 

Fact is they got steamrolled yesterday. LFC played their A game, the crowd is the best in Europe, and those two things combined made for a long night for Barca. They weren't 3 goals better than us in the first leg and maybe we weren't 4 goals better yesterday, but we were the better team across two legs. I think that was clear.

Riise’s own goal in the last minute of the first leg gave me such low-t. 

[Bone3421 716]

Maybe we will get a match next year

Remember watching this game at SigEp with the Hicks boys. It got pretty awkward.

Ridiculous tackle by the best centerback in the world

That was matip...but what the hell he can be the best also the way he played yesterday

[JNip 132]

That’s probably the best tackle in the history. I’ve seen Messi play for over ten years now, have never seen him not complete that dribble.

Matip >>> VVD

[Bone3421 716]

Dont know if anyone said it up thread and i wasnt aware yesterday with all the celebrating...but no team has ever comeback from 3-0 in semi's before

Granted probably not a lot of 3-0 leads in semi's to begin with

It's time for Tottenham to make it an all EPL final.

Well, you do it. I don't like posting too much in the individual team threads.

One of my favorite things about Surly. We don't thread shit in each other's home.

Respect to Messi for keeping his cool. I would've run after him.

Would have been the most effort out of Messi all night, am I right @JNip?

That's just Robertson's kid. That security guard looked like they were close to retirement.

[HenryJames 66,171]

Hi!

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Whelp, that was fast.

[Jograves 357]

So no extra time now. 

[HenryJames 66,171]

Nineteen year old captain.

[PittsburghTiger 6,197]

Quick start for Ajax.  Fun stuff

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Son hits the post. It's not Spurs day.

Piss poor effort there. He was kind of, sorta’, a little pissed.

[HenryJames 66,171]

Nice tackle.

Lack of depth and Pochettino doubling down on not rotating. It’s dumb.

[PittsburghTiger 6,197]

It is a joy to watch guys move, with a purpose, without the ball.

And defenders who can dribble and pass.

Pretty much rules out most of our national team, at least the last decade.

This whole squad is fantastic. 

[PittsburghTiger 6,197]

Ajax just runs & runs & runs

[MoJames 8,254]

Jesus, what kind of shit mask is that. Why go clear? Be cool and get the black one.

[PittsburghTiger 6,197]

It’s like watching a baseball team hit grounders right at infielders

No idea why a bigger club doesn’t want him.

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Spurs are opening them up

[shnsajax 3,591]

Ajax just runs & runs & runs

Most of the time it’s so fluid that it doesn’t seem like they even spend much energy.

[HenryJames 66,171]

Close.

A bit, yeah, but can’t maintain anything, yet. They sure need a goal before the half. One more for Ajax and this one could indeed be over

[HenryJames 66,171]

Fun to watch.

[PittsburghTiger 6,197]

Holy Shit! The pass and the shot!  The goal!

 

[Cheeseweasel 26,438]

Whelp, that was fun.
