Mazraoui looks just offside to me since Rudiger's not leaning forward.

Nah, only De Ligt is offside who doesn't play the ball in the 1st phase, but in the 2nd
The goal should stand
Yeah, I know players stopped, I am talking about the 'bizarre' decision of linesman and referee that tells a lot...
 
Well, Bayern have been cosying up to Real in the build up to this tie. Chanting with their fans together on trains ' Puta Barca ' amongst other things.

I respect Bayern as a club, nothing will change that, but if after 2 massive robberies in the previous 2 ties, you have not learnt about Madrid, then frankly, your fans deserve to be robbed by them, again and again, until you do learn.
Dont know any Bayern fans that hate Barca, always huge respect, but most cant stand Real because of the refs (especially since in 2017) we know all about reals corruption. The Bayern fans cosying up to Real are clowns.

But i also have to say it wasnt like 2017 tonight, ref was good until the end. But as Tuchel said he wouldnt whistle if it happens on the other end.
Leipzip have more right to complain than us, they also played much better.

I didn't think Joselu would save them. But he's no ragdoll for sure.

Just pay attention to what Ancelotti is doing in all knockout games up to now.
Exactly same subs (Modric for Kroos, Cama for Tchou, Joselu for ham or Rodrygo, etc) no matter the opponent, state of the game, etc
Truly masterminded...

Let me not talk about tactics, because the forum is not up to it

Mazraoui's shoulder is more advanced than Rudiger's shoulder here. Question is where is Rudiger's right foot hidden by De Ligt. Obviously play shouldn't have been whistled and unless VAR has video from opposite side of pitch showing Ruidger's hidden foot then goal should've stood.

19 shots to 8
7 shots on target to 5
60-40 possession
Higher xG

Bayern got outplayed badly.

That's a report of stats I can look myself
I asked you to explain how exactly Ancelotti outplayed Tuchel
That means you have to explain tactics

Rudiger's whole body, including foot, is covering Mazraoui.

I didn't see Rudiger's foot till you zoomed in, looked like part of De Ligt's sleeve beforehand. Mazroui is for sure onside. There's still possibility that Militao could've challenged or blocked De Ligt's shot if whistle hadn't blown.

Good thing Bayern didn't deserve the win.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
So, when the managers you stan for don't win, you parade stats like xG to show why the result was 'unfair' to them and that they had outplayed their counterpart.

But when it's against your agenda, they become merely game summaries and stats.

How predictable.

But to humor you a little, just a couple of the basic tactics:

Look at how badly Kimmich got overrun by Vinicius just kicking the ball far out and making it a race/sprint. That was deliberate and Tuchel was either too clueless or too proud to fix it.

The midfield. Ancelotti's best teams are well known for crowding the midfield and using the midfield as a springboard. Tuchel went with 4 attackers and 2 midfielders (and 2 non-elite ones at that). And the wingers barely dropped in towards the middle.

Our goal now has to be to get to 8 CL before anyone else.

Be the team with the 2nd most CL.

Yea yea I know we should have had more and blah blah blah.

Have to set goals as a club for the players to aim at.

We conceded being the best club in the world to Madrid thanks to barto's incompetence, smh.

They have that winning mentality that legendary teams in other sports have. Absolutely insane how the likes of even Joselu can perform so well in that squad.
