He's a great athlete but he's much worse with diving than Neymar ever was.

I'm glad we've got Messi and not the other way around. Doesn't care about his tally but the good of the team and doesn't dive for penalties to rack up his numbers. Disgusting

Can you read? it was Ramos.

My bad.

The point still stands either way.

They are obsessed with Ronaldo

Chill. It was early in the morning.

I didn't expect anyone else to act like this. I stand corrected

And I'm sure as hell not obsessed with Ronaldo. I actually admire him and I have called him a great athlete numerous times. There's nothing to be obsessed about anyway.

Apology accepted

Thought this reff was biased towards us tbh. Every little foul on Ronaldo was immediately a freekick, that penalty was given after we complained with the extra official giving it although it was impossible for him to see where the ball hit that Shaktar player

Anyways no sympathies for Shaktar for me, after we went 1-0 up instead of actually attacking our goal they were happy to play tiki taka in their own half against our outnumbered attacker tasked with chasing the ball. They were absolutely toothless attacking wise, even Espanyol created chances. It looked like they were instructed to do so, their tiki taka dropped further and further deep till it involved their keeper and CBs and we forced them into mistakes

If we weren't so happy to toy with them in the first half instead of being ruthless it wouldn't even have come to the penalty

Shaktar are awful

Lol @Ronaldo being worse at diving than Neymar

He's not wrong. Neymar is very good at it.

Neymar is no just very good, he's by far the best I might say. The guy goes down every time somebody sneezes around him

We gonna get destroyed with Benz, Bale & James out

Honest question: game worth a watch?

No Modric, Kovacic & Carvajal aswell

We played pretty good. PSG didn't create any chance and we could have scored. just needed a little more luck. good game from Marcelo, Ramos, Varane, Kroos and Jese.

Ramos he is lucky psg arent a spanish teams. Some of his passes have been wtf

Cavani better elpipa

ronaldo freekicks

Should have won sigh..

Also Ronaldo offers nothing as usual what a surprise.

Yea, Madrid were quite good. Probably the better team overall. Specially considering that wasn't their full strength.



Cavani was quite bad. Ibra's age is showing. Verratti did fine and Thiago Motta was very good.

Point kinda fair in the end i guess

Ibra and Cavani on the same field is so frustrating to watch.

both need to GTFO for PSG to improve .

No, Ibra needs to GTFO and Cavani given a proper role.

Higuain better than Cavani, FFS you people...

he got plenty of time playing CF thanks to Ibra's injuries and suspensions ... he showed very little of what he did at Napoli and displayed a shocking ability in missing one on ones .

Ibrahimovic doing jack shit in a big game... what's new? Frustrating to watch.

should've won good first half and solid second half, defense looked great thanks to the work rate jese and lucas provided, made casemiro and kroos just focus on breaking up plays and controlling the game from time to time.

this game was a good indication going forward, jese gonna be the first attacking sub again, casemiro will continue to be first option for midfield rotation now, hope lucas and cheryshev get it together through out the season, isco still relying on dribbling too much don't know when he is gonna break out of that, but can see him losing his place soon even with james injured, cr is cr, and defense was great outside of sloppy passing.

should top the group.

Ibra is 34 tbf. Age is showing now.

Expected more from PSG.

Did people even watch the game let alone watch PSG on a regular basis?

Ibrahimovic has come back from a strong injury that ruled him out for the beginning of the season, and even in coming back he has performed.

This isn't Zlatan in Inter or his first year in Milan and subsequently his role early in PSG. Ibra has increasingly been Blanc shifted him into a deeper and creative role. If eyes were actually watching you'd see him play deep and providing a passing outlet to Cavani, i.e the MAIN targetman for PSG who is responsible for spearheading the attack.

Tonight no different, Ibra was responsible for creating several plays, linked up perfectly with the midfield and brought the ball forward perfectly. Cavani is at fault tonight for not leading the line and drifting all too wide and providing zero outlet for the reference point needed.

The Ibra not performing in a big game etc is aging etc doesn't work here given his performances this season and his role to which goals are near secondary, just to accommodate Cavani who is scoring primarily because he leads the line up front and Ibra creates for him.

Considering our injury record and psg having everyone availablle i was pretty surprised at how awfully little they created. I can only remember them having 3 shots for which 2 were off target. If i am Blanc i would get worried right now
