Quote from: Look-Up! on Today at 09:13:12 AMJoselu is something else though. Doesn't matter if it's the Bernabeu or Stoke on a wet windy night, the man delivers!!!

More like he couldn't do it on a wet windy night in Stoke. Crazy that 2 failed former Stoke strikers were leading the line at the end of a Champions League Semi Final.
Who's the other one?

Always great to see stories like this. Only got his first Spain cap last year too at 32. Unbelievable night for him and his family.

Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting
Thanks. They just missed each other at Stoke too I see. Very similar strike rate as well.
seen something the other day that a member of that Stoke 15/16 squad has played in CL semi finals something like 12 of the last 20 years.

FFS, the commentators last night and now the English press going full bullshit mode on Tuchel for taking Kane off and that being the change in fortunes for Bayern...

Now I didn't see most of the game so maybe Kane was having a stormer, but the game turned on Neurer fumbling the ball, nothing more, nothing less.

He holds onto that ball, Bayern hold out and alls well with the British press.

All the big chat from the English TV and press about this being about the two English guys, both were pretty anonymous throughout. Kane had one great pass which set the goal up, but his lack of pace at this level exposed when he couldn't get on the end of two good through balls.

Bellingham the same, quiet in Germany in the first leg and quiet again last night.

Quote from: square_ball on May 08, 2024, 10:49:14 PMLinesman shouldn't have flagged but Madrid players had stopped playing before the ball ended up in the net so who knows how it would have panned out.
The linesman flag carries no weight, players should only play until they hear the ref's whistle.
In any VAR the linesman's flag would be ignored.
The linesman isn't meant to put their flag up until the end of the play even if there is suspicion of offside. It was a massive error. The player does look marginally offside but it's hard to know for sure unless they use the technology. Also the champions League offside system is vastly superior to the prems
Players play to the whistle. It doesn't matter what mistake the linesman makes, it would not even have influenced a VAR inquisition had it come down to that. The ref should have ignored the flag, overruled the linesman and let the play proceed. The ref's mistake dwarfs that of the linesman.

Was thinking same Nag. Kane deffo has qualities but at times he looked v cumbersome in that company last night. Bellingham little influence

Any chance the commentators got they were bigging them up tho they were peripheral at best
