Fucking hell Fazio, of all the players on the pitch to give a comedy assist to.
Another goal would lead to extra time now and basically kill our final on Sunday, so I dunno how I feel about the rest of the game now.

extra time for liverpool, not good for the game against man city either

Torino down to ten men after half an hour. 2 justified yellows. They'd completely stifled Zenit with ease until then.

Witzel 1-0. Torino have been defending the width of the box quite well, but that was neat play by Zenit.

Roma were so terrible tonight it was bordering on the criminal. Goalie lols for the 2nd, non-existent marking for the 3rd. Ljanic sent off at the end. Shambles. They've barely won a game this year.

Once I saw Alcatraz was playing for Everton and Howard was in goal then the result was inevitable. No English teams involved in Euro QF's for the first time in 20 years!

Howler from Beto, Rondon taps in. Game on. So awful from the keeper.
― pandemic, Thursday, 23 April 2015 20:11 (nine years ago) link
Beto so shook that Hulk decides to shoot from about 35 yards away on the right touchline, off the bar and in. Outrageous.

Zenit rampant right now. Hulk blasts away from distance, Beto tips over.

as if scholesy isn't loving this, deep down. if he could have been a pundit while he was still playing the hovis ad that is his subconscious would have found a way to criticise the latest version of himself.
― Bein' Sean Bean (LocalGarda), Thursday, 3 November 2016 23:48 (seven years ago) link
when he was signed I expected him to rotate with Rashford in the centre forward position. Which would have been fine, and offered some good attacking variation. Instead he's become the new undroppable and plays 90 minutes basially every game, and Rashford is shunted out wide even though we desperately need movement up front.
Agreed.

Though it does look like the Azeri government had assured him he’d have no travel issues and that a security plan was in place, so I’m not sure what more they could have done, really. It looks like it was a personal decision from Mkhitaryan in the end.
