wow crazy 5 mins

 

[Robbo]

What a turnaround!

 

[bingham67]

Kane!

 

[Nate75]

Sheesh thought it was starting to look easy for Madrid lol

 

[Ayahuasca]

Sir Harold, never in doubt.

 

[nemtizz]

Ref not buying these dives from the brazilians

 

[imtoooldforthis]

Feels like if Bayern win champs league then Kane gets Ballon D'or, if Madrid do then Bellingham gets it and Mbappe gets it if PSG wins. I guess the Euros will play a role in at as well.

Hard to imagine anyone other than those three winning it though

 

[Trusty]

Great block by Dier

Dier has to be in the England squad for the Euro's, surely

It’s just a popularity contest though, Haaland broke records last year and won the lot and got nowt.

It should be awarded to the best player, not who won the CL and/or Euros for me.

It's always odd to me that people give it so much credit. As you said, it's so clearly a popularity contest much of the time.

I dunno, Ronaldo won it quite a few times.

 

[Trusty]

big save

 

[Reuben klang]

That’s the Madrid PR machine.

Kim out of his depth here.

 

[Trusty]

That's braindead by Kim, can see why he hasn't broken into the first team

 

[manic111]

Hard to believe that United didn't sign Kim last summer, he seems made for them

It holds huge weight with the players and younger generations. Pre Ronaldo and Messi no one really cared that much but their rivalry turned it into a big deal.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Kim's been awful all game.

 

[Nate75]

Plonker

 

[manic111]

Kim's been awful all game.

Making Dier look like VVD

 

[Trusty]

Boom, superb first touch
