I'm going to miss the whole thing anyway. Dreading what I'll discover when I check the result: Capital One Cup 2013/14 thread

Dunno what utd's overall performance was like but missing four penalties at OT is abysmal.

it was shite

pure shite

Just seen the Sunderland goal. Oh dear.

Dunno what utd's overall performance was like

The stronger of two weak teams over 90 minutes, but scarcely troubling the Sunderland goal (whereas Sunderland didn't even manage a shot on target until the 119th minute).

Didn't want another Bradford City type team in some mismatched final again, so it is a good result for the cup.

I honestly think Sunderland have more chance of beating City in the final than United would have had anyway (which is still not much)

*Chuckle*

just got home

staring at "win 2-1 on penalties" like a message from mars

I think I vaguely remember seeing an even worse shoot out than this, but only once. Was it Liverpool-Cardiff?

there was this a couple of years back

ok i need that moyes reaction gif like now

psht when was the last time a title challenging side like City lost a cup final to a Northern relegation fodder club led by a young Spanish-speaking manager who spent a large portion of his playing career in England

no doubt whatsoever jonesey would convert that try

eternal kudos to the beeb for getting the football league show boys to rvw that shite

I was in a pub this evening, full of people who weren't watching the football really, until the penalty shootout when the entire pub galvanised in lolling at shite penalties and lolling at Man Utd.

Also I insisted before the shootout started that Ki was absolutely taking one and going to stick it away, and my mates were all "ha, everyone's shite, you're wrong". DON'T THINK SO.

Also also, it transpired that my mate sneakily stuck an inplay bet on Sunderland to qualify just before extra time started, a fiver at 5/1, so when we all finished lolling at Man U the drinks were

Basically, that is what watching football in a pub should be like - a mixture of calling shit right for kudos, getting free beer, and Man Utd being crap.

Top day. Cheers Moyes!

Drinks were on him, that should say.

Oh aye, with an added bonus of us all looking like extras in a terrible beer advert when said mate's joy turned to despair when Man U scored to take it to penalties, when he'd thought his money was safe on a Sunderland win.

Also, comedy goalkeeping.

wahey

Hmm is this worth gettin out the bath for

Klata right about Borini all along

The presence of Demichellis in this team is allowing Kompany to get away with an awful lot of substandard performances without attracting negative comment. Imo

Causal possibility?

Possibly

Has Dzeko touched the ball yet?

none of the hacks who went after demichelis after his stupid penalty vs barcelona mentioned it was kompany's failure to keep to the line that left messi onside

i still distrust rafael honigstein after he compared dzeko to rvp as one of those rare #9s who can act as a playmaker and focal point for the rest of the attack

he has a fairly good scoring record with city but his general play is fairly crap, especially compared to negredo

Jesus what a goal

lol

2 goals 2 mins.

technique from Nasri there

All 3 goals completely unsaveable

Actually think that was a penalty tbh

Fucking hate these cunts at this stage.

City have been terrible since the goal. Still want them to win tho.

pitiful from Fletcher

It really really was

Guys in the sky studio so begrudging and bitter. Love it.

I kind of resent Navas for going near post and spoiling the aesthetic perfection of those goals

lmao

best substitution ever

literally noone on ilx could have done worse than kepa today. fail to save any of 11 pens and then blast one over the bar. was a p good game on the whole.

I saved more penalties than he did this weekend, and he faced 10 more than me #braggin'
