Absolutely everything is "luck" for you guys, isn't it?

Try not to get trashed by Juventus next time, and you may get a "lucky" draw as well, how about that?

you guys have been pretty lucky though, performing abysmally in the group stage, lost 2 games, drew 1 and still got 1st place thanks to pretty much Inter with just +2 goal differential; drew Atalanta in the group of 16th and played 11 vs. 10 for more than 70 minutes in the first leg. Facts.

Not really a lucky draw, just Liverpool have loads of injuries. Full strength Liverpool would be favourites against them.

Ofc but we're talking about current Liverpool plagued with injuries and almost 30 points behind City in the domestic league. The only clear easier draw for them was Porto.

Madrid are pretty dire. Even against out of form, injury addled Liverpool the tie is still a toss up. Screw your heads on straight. Few days ago you people were rooting for Madrid to progress, now you moan about their chances like the sky is falling.

Our only luck was Inter handing us the group win, thats it.
Atalanta wasn't even the easiest draw we could have gotten, and neither is Liverpool now.

Nothing lucky about our draws.

Yeah, lucky draws with sextuple Bayern or with the best Liverpool in half a century wich btw won confortably their CL seasons back than.

Liverpool is not a lucky draw :lol: come on. But they're beatable. Could've been worse.

They are almost 30 points away from City in their league, are plagued with injuries and by far the weakest Liverpool of the out of the last 3 seasons and with no Anfield advantage either this time, surely could be worse with Porto for instance but this is a lucky draw for Madrid facing the weaker teams and on the other side Bayern, PSG and City fighting against each other.

Zidane at his voodoo thing again...
With one draw avoiding the opponents that would surely kick them out (City, Bayern, PSG) until the final...

Liverpool would have easily won this if VVD and Matip were playing, but with Ozan Kabak and Nat Philips as CBs I think RM has a huge chance

They beat that Liverpool in the final , while we choked against that Liverpool the year after. In 16/17 we had lucky draws and went on to bottle that as well.

The Liverpool that we faced was better with the addition of Alisson and Fabinho with Keita and Shaqiri for squad depth

One is to play them in a single game on neutral ground back in the time when they had an absolute joke of a keeper in Karius and and a completely different thing to play them when at their strongest with the return leg on a full and vivid Anfield, don't you think?

But in the second leg we got really lucky and faced a crippled version of that Liverpool while having a 3-0 lead.

This. At least RM win when luck "favors" them.

We had a 3 goal lead with Salah and Bobby out but ernesto cruyff and grandaman made sure we squandered it.

People can rest assured the Algerian shaman and his son won't do the same.

They were a TEAM, they did not stand in either of their attackers. Ofc Barca fucked it big time but still they were much stronger than a year before and was playing in an incandescent Anfield, not on any neutral ground which is a huge difference.
