CL: Barca - Man City 1-0 (3-1 agg.)

[Kerrybai]

I'm not even sure if that's a legit penalty but whatever. Messi really panicked after the miss,his diving header miss looked hilarious. He once again proved that he's isn't a match for Penaldo. But seriously, Messi really misses way too many penalties. Maybe Suarez/Neymar would do better?

WTF how on earth is it not a penalty? Yes credit to penaldo he's better at them, Although he has nothing on Balo and the likes.

The way we lost focus and became complacent in the second half needs to stop happening. It's insane. What did Lucho say in the break? It's completely embarrasing to go from being that dominant to losing it completely like that, it makes no sense.

 

[Jägermeister]

If City scores an early goal at Barcelona, it could become actually dangerous for us. 3-1 would have made it so much easier to go into that game with that 2 goal lead.

 

[raskolnikov]

In the end we all would have been very happy with a 1-2 regardless of how it happened, let go the missed chances, complacency in the second half and missed penalty. We had a great result and are well on our way towards the quarter finals, we should be happy about the game in the end.

 

[Gnidrologist]

We could have beaten these 3-0/4-0 instead we play a negative and nervous second half.. it's just stupid.

Maybe Lucho is taking cues from Mourinho? Better to win than jeopardize the win in hopes of even more convincing win, but risk conceding more goals. I think Lucho did right. Even the ''conservative'' Barca are more dangerous in attack than most sides out there.

edit: and of course
This was the perfect match to see the strengths of Suarez. He can cook up a goal from nothing like a real 9. At last. We weren't that great in first half in terms of creativity, but got two goals. That's 100% Suarez.

Exactly. I don't know what happened there. Like they gave up in 2nd half..."you know what..2:0 is just fine."

 

[blaugrana1987]

Should have killed the game or at least score that 3rd. That would pretty much put us through but whatever, its a great result nontheless

 

[Barcaman]

Doesn't feel like a win after poor 2nd half and missed penalty.
It'll sink in tomorrow

 

[FC B]

Had anybody saw Kompany giving a presser after the game?
I'd love to see him bitching again about how underserved was this Barca win too. The third one in a row from three

 

[DrPepper]

My favourite one was, "Do they ever get bored of passing the ball to each other?"

Erm... no. It's fun. You should try it.

Well, he provided some interesting trivia.

Like that Dani Alves agent is no other than his ex-wife. Didn't know that.

Also hilarious reaction by the co-commentator.

 

[Falcao]

I did say Kompany was a weak link. Barca should have put the tie to bed, the organisation and shape seemed to go in the second half.

 

[Gasgas]

Please help i'm supposed to give names of 5 reliable fooootball pundits ASAP. I am in an argument

Messi let Neymar take one the other day, and he missed it.
