man utd doing what they best. defending with 11 men no matter who they play, a goal from a corner and not a single composed attack all game.
one day their luck will run out and i wanna be there when it happens

 

[Pepe Silvia]

that's nice and all that hummels can play on set pieces but i really don't care and his goal didn't mask his awful defensive performance for me. that was dreadful defending.

Really? People here say he was quite good

Can you point me to some of those posts because I cannot seem to find them

No way. I watched the whole game and he was quite terrible tonight. At fault for second Shakhtar goal plus he was too slow and really sloppy in possession.

How was Götze?

 

[SeloBarca]

No i ment here in Sweden

Missed the game, heard Welbeck, Jones and De Gea in particular played well while Read Madrid dominated. Good game?

Wellbeck played well? He scored, but that was about the only thing he did well.

@ SeloBarca
Ah, okay

 

[Barcaman]

Should have been 6-2 or something. Madrid were far superior and Ferguson can be lucky with 1-1.

Disagree. They were not 'far superior'. They were better than United, but not anything special. United had their chances too.

 

[SeloBarca]

Think ManU took over the longer the game went on. It could have been 1-4 but at the same time 4-1 with all the chances.

It's not luck, ferguson has been getting these sort of results for 25 years now.

I still fancy RM to go through, strangely enough.

Personally I'd prefer Utd to win (from a Barca perspective), but in the 2nd leg RM will do what they do best, counter attack at pace.

This. It wasn't anything like the 2011 final, that's for sure (some people are talking like it was).

How was Götze?

He was good. Nothing spectacular. Had a very good first half but he faded in the second. The game was more about two teams with comically bad CBs. You had Chygrynskiy and Rakytskyy on one side and Hummels (who was surprisingly poor tonight) and Santana on the other. You couldn't tell which one was worse. I'm a bit surprised we didn't see more goals.
