haven't made it out to the bar yet but i'm gonna guess it'll be lfc>>>>spuds here in new mex too

there's been a long-building oversaturation, compulsion and joylessness to my relationship with football and this years champions league grind has clarified for me what madness the whole thing is. my plan is to watch this and then kiss the whole thing goodbye

Going well so far

Uh right, starting off stupid.

Just hanging the washing out ref. Nothing to see.

Selfish from Spurs. Arsenal fans 100% need the illicit, masochistic thrill of Spurs somehow winning the Champions League and they're absolutely fucking it

Spurs the better side despite the goal

Is the heat having an effect here? Both on fans and players? Feels fairly flat, oddly.

Poor match so far. I was very much in the Liverpool camp since putting a tenner on them to beat Spurs in the final after the first leg of the semis, have now bunged £50 on a Spurs win so am happy for football to be the winner.

Lucas on for Kane at the half if Poch has any balls

Like watching paint dry tbh.

Danny Rose best player on the pitch so far

Not helped by having not one but two pisspoor summarizers in McManaman and Jenas.

Dull half

Felt like an MLS half

So obv final score will be 5-4

Michael "Interesting" Owen in the studio @ half time, joy of joys.

I hope Klopp has had a go at half-time, that was poor from Liverpool.

Some abysmal football in this game. I don't think Spurs have had a shot on target yet. After an hour.

2019: the year england fuck it up for everybody

Llorente on for Kane imo

Best part of the final is how the stadium looks incredible.

After 72 minutes, Alisson called on to make a save.

A shot! An actual shot!

Good advert for English football

30 seconds of top class entertainment.

my YouTube stream literally glitched exactly for that goal

grim

Mine's is about 3 minutes behind, so I don't know who's scored yet.

Is there still time to give it to Ajax?

Oh, right. Poch out.

No side in the world could beat Liverpool playing at that level

I’ve just seen my post and realised it says Spuds, not Spurs. That wasn’t intentional.

No, I think you were right first time.

Good run

Thoughts and prayers with Michael Jones in this difficult moment.

Dream everyone. Dream, work, believe https://t.co/vijJm7bG9O

It was hard to actually feel the buzz for a while cos the game was so turgid and painful (and because I watched it home alone since I have to fly home for a funeral very early tomorrow) but I am feeling it now.

Congratulations to Liverpool supporting pals. (/Hughie Green)

keep it tight first few minutes anyway lads

if poch goes he goes with my sincere thanks he can take dele fuckin alli with him

Maybe Poch didn't focus enough on his energy lemons

make a new one? i would but have no snappy titles at hand

Is Sanchez playing RB again? Thought he was disastrous vs Arsenal.

Lovely move unluckily off the post from olympiacos. Matty Valbuena with the chest lay off.

Thread titles? 3-0 is a dangerous lead?

Penalty Spurs after being dominated so far

Clear pen tbf

One nil

Cracker from Lucas. Two nil.
