I like this PSG keeper, commands his area

Looks like he hasn't slept for 6 months.

Come straight from the frontlines

tbf in the 80s the Italian formation was 8-1-1 so was a bit harder to score!

Well, this is the point! They adored defending and made an artform of it. The best attacking players in the world struggled with it. Today, by contrast, I don't think there is much emphasis put on defending. The Italians have gone down the toilet, the Germans have forgotten what it is to defend, and I can't name a handful of genuinely world-class defenders, when there are multiple world-class attackers around today. It's lovely to watch, but seems unbalanced to me.

 

[RomanReigns]

We want 5-5

 

[helpimonfire]

Cracking game. Both teams showing how it is done.

It's lovely to watch, but it's hard to take seriously. Totally unbalanced. There is definitely scope here for an Arteta to grind out a poxy goal and hang on by packing the defence for the rest of the match. The one-off final will suit them too. Atletico of a decade ago might have been primed for this job, too.

Arsenal don’t have a prayer against either of these quite frankly.

I can’t remember enjoying a game of football as much as this particularly one I’ve no vested interest in .

Bayern haven’t recovered from losing Aznou in the summer.

Yep who ever goes through wins it

 

[Toffeeslam]

Last 10 minutes been boring

Not even trying

 

[Wat Tyler]

Why has the ref stopped that there?

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

Big asterisk on the fact that the league they play in just lets them have 3 weeks off between legs but my god this PSG side is the closest thing we've got to those Barca sides

 

[Taifi gorm]

It's cramp play on
