They'll be sacrificing sheep in the streets of Karagandy tonight - Champions League 2013/14

Goal imminent in Madrid I reckon

STOP PRESS: shot on target by Kagawa

Are Utd going to nick this?

YEEEEESSSSS!!!!!

PATROIIIIICEEEE!!!!

Fuck me

oh fuck

Shit!

xavi free header 7 yards out. misses

8 man defence looking a bit ragged all of a sudden

Christopher Wall: If it was Mourinho getting a 0-0 draw against Bayern he would be called a tactical genius, Moyes gets slated.

possibly not if that guaranteed his team's exit though

just got home

Atletico should've buried Barca there, feeble miss

masch all but rolls out the red carpet for gabi to dribble the ball to 8 yards out and have a free shot. weak into pinto's legs

lol xp

Huge call, Webb doesn't make it

alves has been shit tonight

anybody got a fork?

Mourinho loses 3-1 away and gets called a tactical genius for it, Moyes gets slated

Mourinho makes United look like shit, gets called a tactical genius, Moyes does the same, gets slated

inches wide from neymar. cortois has only had to make one save tbh

Neville Chamberlain capitulates in Munich, gets called a tactical genius

Moyes deserves sacking for starting/leaving on Rooney. He's literally playing like he's on drugs

NV's kids and future grandkids escape bitcoin bankruptcy. Moyes you old softie.

the ticker says that robben has scored and i'm 95% certain of exactly how :)

The guy at work didn't cash in last week in a 9 minute window and I very much doubt tonight will have cashed in during the 2 minute window.

it's not much of a way to make a living but

It was a trademark Robben shot but it took a horrific deflection off Vidic. Bayern have been shite. Completely there for the taking if we had a competent manager and 11 players

Atletico making a terrible choice at the end of every one of these breaks

Moyes deserves sacking for starting/leaving on Rooney.

Bayern have been shite. Completely there for the taking if we had a competent manager and 11 players

They've looked much better since they equalised

Barca looked good for about 15 mins at the start of the 2nd half but that's been about it.

probably the most anonymous performance i've seen from a fit messi for a few years

Pinto excelling somehow

gah that tosser anthony taylor on my screen the fuck

Real-Chelsea has got to be the draw now, anything else is too risky

this last 30 mins from Barca has been dire. Bye bye Tata.

Don't know whether I'd enjoy a Chelsea vs Atleti match up. Atleti wouldn't bottle it in the face of some long ball shite at least.

Did you see Real last night Ismael?

Ten grand up in smoke.

Hm, that's a point. At least drawing Real, Mourinho would get so obsessed he might not notice there's a game in the middle.

Anyway the most important take away from the last 2 nights is that LFC will walk this next year.

so much so that it didn't look like he was fit because he hardly broke into a sprint for the whole game

the bayern game was exactly typical of moyes, 22 seconds from the pressure reverting onto them and they concede

not that i would often quote him enthusiastically, but alan hansen was arguing in the telegraph last week that now it is entirely down to them, liverpool simply have to win the title else it will be a failure

similarly even though they had no sincere prospect of getting close to winning this tie two weeks ago, once evra scored they had a non-negligible chance of going through and consequently they had something to lose

nothing more typical of a moyes side than a creditable 150 minutes of dour rearguard defence when they were playing for pride and then fucking up as soon as it was for real, nor more typical of a guardiola side than continuing to apply the same praxis (minor adjustment of rafinha for goetze excepted) with renewed determination and finishing the tie in fifteen minutes

Barcelona forward, Leo Messi was completely taken out of Wednesday evening’s 1-0 Champions League quarterfinal loss to Atletico Madrid and it was later revealed that the Argentine only ran 6.8 kilometres, just 1.5 more than goalkeeper Jose Manuel Pinto.

I'm not even a United hater but LOLz United, ahead in the tie for all of 22 seconds

How on earth can a keeper run 5.3km in a match

That's almost 59m per minute

i.e. 1m per second, which isn't all that incredible for someone just milling around on their feet

Didn't realise that Courtois can't play if Atleti meet Chelsea. Sucks.

I think he can, but they would have to pay Chelsea a presumably exhorbitant fee
