Karius conceded only 1 against Pep's City.
He is not that bad.

That's called experience in big matches.
Or inexperience.

My commentator just said that Zidane didn't lose a single knockout game since he came.

People talking about Rm's luck, but they just can't lose a KO match.
Mental strength, motivation, experience, good tactics.

While we (Barca) didn't score a single goal in all last 6 Cl's exits: Chelsea, Bayern, Am, Am, Juventus, Roma.

Rm can't lose against anyone.
We, on the other hand, almost can't score against anyone in away KO matches.

That is not because of luck.

Surely the opener goal wasn't luck? It was experience from Madrid to bait out that Karius mistake?
They got lucky too many times, and the problem is, whoever they play against, opponents always get intimidated and just bend over for them. This is why I was hoping we get RM because we are the only ones that can knock them out.

the thing with madrid is that ppl always think there is a chance vs them, so they play "normally". basically every team is underestimating Madrid.

I think at this point.. is anyone even surprised? Even with the Salah injury not getting a yellow. Just wow. Kudos for Liverpool to make it this far but this CL could have been something different. But it's hard to admit that Bale was great impact for Real.

EDIT: I mean liverpool

I think the CL will still give Ronaldo the momentary edge. If Germany for example wins the WC, then people will again argue that noone really stood out and they did is as a team, Kroos might have a chance if he plays great then because of double titles. Same with Spain or France (Maybe Griezmann if he becomes top scorer). If Brazil does it, Neymar might be back in the race.

I don't think CR7 will win it for this season as he hardly did anything in UCL beside scoring in the group stage and one good KO game. For me, Messi is the winner so far unless someone has an outstanding WC tourny.

Liverpool should have used the money they got for Coutinho to trigger Jasper's release clause.

I have never seen such poor keeping in such a big game. Karius literally handed Real the CL title.

Bale's first goal was unstoppable, but the other two goals were just gifts.

:lol: do you read your posts before posting?

If they think they can't win it, why play it?

The best player from who wins the World Cup will take the Ballon d'Or.
