Was Grealish just telling the ref to go off for treatment?

 

[explicit4u]

Martinelli losing his man again, gonna be tough to overturn this now

 

[JamesH85]

Kimmich

 

[manic111]

If City get through this they're doing the treble again aren't they

 

[CliffyG]

All came from a poor challenge from Odegaard. So frustrating but we're really not creating anything.

As a spectacle the worst thing that could have happened was an early Madrid goal!

I'm not sure - an early City goal would have meant an hour of keepball

 

[Robbo]

I thought Arsenal might struggle, bad result at the weekend and the Allianz isn't an easy place to go.

Still, they've got the likes of Saliba and Rice now, a reaction should be expected.

 

[Nate75]

Meh.. both English clubs going out

 

[Reuben klang]

Meh.. both English clubs going out

Fingers crossed.

Pretty poor performance from the league over all. The PL bubble has us (well, at least me) thinking the rest of the leagues are garbage but Germany and Italy showing they’ve got massive strength over all in their leagues and Spain may over take the PL as well.

—

I say that but City are all over Madrid at the moment, Madrid just got to get that pass right on the counter and they’ll be through.

*edit*

Just as I hit enter, a bit of a better square ball there and it’s 0-2!

 

[manic111]

City's corners have been odd tonight. They've all gone near post, and it's looked deliberate rather than just a failure to clear the first man. With Lunin looking terrified I don't get why they're not just dumping it to the edge of the 6 yard box and letting Haaland and Dias compete

 

[Droolinggimp]

started watching the City game for the last 10 mins or so, is it training practice or something? Not seen Madrid with the ball yet

 

[Reuben klang]

Does Grealish actually go pass anybody anymore?

He slows the move right down, stops and stand there over the ball and faint going left or right. Then passes backwards.

Doku on now, he’ll certainly aim to go past but they won’t have as much control. Peps all about that control.

 

[Nate75]

Man City face a lot of this with having to break packed defences down.

Problem is Madrid are very good at it.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Citeh will find a way

Told ya

 

[Darujhistan]

Its there!

 

[manic111]

Citeh will find a way

Yeah I think they'll get one

 

[manic111]

Yeah I think they'll get one

Just as I hit enter!

 

[Droolinggimp]

meh

 

[Trusty]

Its there. KDB!
