In the short term, that's a good result for Liverpool. City will need a full complement heading to the Bernebeau and have Liverpool at the Etihad a few days prior.

Long term issue is obviously the increased likelihood of meeting Madrid in the latter stages, should Liverpool get there.

Good point. Who does Ederson play for?
Hasta la victoria siempre

Quote from: AustinPowers on February 11, 2025, 09:59:23 PMIs this a two -legged tie? Or are City out?

Two legged yeah.

Still for Ederson's faults Stones was pathetic on the 3rd madrid goal, kovacic was slow at reacting on the 2nd and surely some defender could have been quicker getting back on the 1st.

For all the millions they have spent on defenders they look so bad at the back, not just last night but all season really.

Stones is waiting for Lewis to nail the ball and, failing that, nail Vini, not his fault Lewis makes a balls of it. Kovacic had got in front of Diaz and cut off the space between vini and Diaz, hes just unlucky that the ball falls directly into Diaz pass. The highlights don't show that the goal comes 5 seconds after Ederson boots the ball 30 yards straight to a Madrid player.

Lewis is an awful defender I know Walker has lost the pace and has own stuff going on outside of football but that's an area to target for any opposition coming up against City.  He's young, English and an academy graduate so gets a bye ball from the media.

He's off to AC Milan, and perhaps that will suit him for a couple of years.

It's amazing the massive amount that City has spent of defenders, and they were only a Rodri injury away from this shambles.

Great result for Rovers. Still a job to do at home but a great start.

An absolute brilliant result. Fair play to them.
