UCL SF1 17/18 | Bayern Munich Vs Real Madrid

oh give me a break, we have Benzema and Bale. We're basically playing with 9 men and defending with 7.

That's why emotionally, they are all over the place all the time.

There you have it.

I don't always agree with Hans but sometimes he gets it spot on.

What about Coman? How's he doing? Did he cut his ridiculous Palacio rat tail yet?

I appreciated his commitment to become a J Master but the shit was an eyesore

I rated highly that Bayern under Guardiola, I was convinced they'd have won UCL, that semi-final lost against Simeone ffs
 that 1st half of 1st leg costed them UCL imo (but CL is so, details make the difference) , because they were best team of tournament that year.

I think Real are favorites but not more of 55 % ,because Bayern are Bayern and you can't underrate them on this level with their experience.

About Real, Sergio Ramos not banned ( I had read there was this possibility ) is really great news, even more that we might thnk.

Watched Real on 2nd leg, and hell they can't defend as team. They can defend just individually.  Ramos is probably the best in the world about it about 1 vs 1 ,Vallejo instead.. Poor guy, looked like a child that tries to play against adults. But it is because of Zidane

Coman has been doing very well but he's been out since February, and will be for the rest of the season, with an ankle ligament tear which required surgery.

Wasn't he supposed to be back in mid-april? Will be too late for the semi of course, but might be back for a possible final? And the Pokal.

In the last 3 ties real vs buyern, bayern has had 3 penalties calls in their favour, just one for Madrid.

Everyone with a brain knows the referees favor Bayern.

You just got decimated a couple of days ago by Khedira and Matuidi running rings around your midfield, i would've thought you would have show some humility after that game. I remember this same smugness when you drew Dortmund in 2013 and Juventus in 2015. If i were you chaps, i would be a little bit more cautious especially when you're facing a side that has a pretty good record against you.

Prefer Hans to suffer but i would have to reluctantly side with him here ffs

I rewatched the game and we didnt get decimated tbh

And really, when you have a youth team player as the starting CB and he basically caused the first 2 goals for Juve... which would have never happened with either Ramos or Nacho...  you have to feel good.  Varane has to protect the kid as he's all over the place and Carvajal is left all alone on Mandzu.

Navas being that poor won't happen again either.

Those circumstances allowed Juve to get ahead like that.

We were also extremely complacent coming in thinking the tie was won... Casemiro, Marcelo, Bale and even Isco decided to take the night off.

And we had a good goal called offsides (Isco) and Buffon made some miraculous saves.

That said, that crocodile tears of Buffon, Chiellini and Juve in general was completely worth the stress  Some of the most disingenuous people in the world involved and they deserve the pain.

You serious lol? They are smug and arrogant around every game they play lol.

I am and this tie is no different. Zidane should focus on securing the 2nd place La Liga trophy, tougher competition there.

They are aware that refs are on their side and will push them through

Sergio Ramos may face further Champions League ban after pitch-side actions. 'Allegri legitimately asked, post-match, why Ramos was present on the Real bench and noted that Juan Cuadrado, his own player, had been strictly warned by Uefa to stay away when he was suspended earlier this season.'

We are doing our part for you @hans

Juve

Exposing Varane for the fraud he is without the greatest defender in Madrid history cleaning his diapers.

I was trying to find a proper picture of Harry Potter dueling with Voldemort and his family come through as ghosts and tell him what to do, couldn't find it ffs

Meh, if Real ever met a decent Ref, Ramos would get a red within the first 45 minutes in basically any match I've ever seen him in.

No such thing as a decent ref when you got that flo money

BREAKING NEWS: Real Madrid president in meetings with UEFA, says "Fully expects UEFA to cooperate with Real Madrid"

These are live images

So Vidal is out for the whole season ?
Incredible loss , I rate him as the most important Bayern player.. considering Robben is old 40 I think

After all that trash talk, he goes and makes himself unavailable for the rest of the season. Twat

Can't wait for this.

Sorry @Hans, actually I've come to think that you have no chance in this match

No Vidal, 80 yr old wingers starting week in week out, untested against top opposition , plus most importantly you can't ignore the Refdrid factor which will play a huge part in this tie

Don't worry, I'll be there for you in your corner to console you when you lose. Just hope you don't get embarrassed(again).

Personally I think it's much more embarrassing to progress via obviously skewed and quite possibly bought referee decisions but that's just me I guess

Bayern haven't been embarrassed in the UCL since they got rid of the bald fraud, Pep.

No Vidal just means they get to finish the match with 11 players instead of 10, and the wingers just ooze experience. If they lose it'll be because of the ref...
...or because of being outpaced.

How's Madrid's squad situation? Everyone fit?

Mostly everyone, Nacho is the only one of the core team that is injured. Apart from that, everyone else is fit including Bale who has been injury free for like 2-3 months now (or some shit like that).
