Indeed. Could have been out of sight already. 

[Toepoke]

Cutting Real open beautifully time and again. Did they think it was tie over after Amsterdam? 

[sbcmfc]

This is something else from Ajax!

[Mox]

What a fucking game of football.

[ParisInAKilt]

Best game I’ve seen in awhile. 

Though the 3rd Ajax goal might have been ruled out but well earned win. 

Shame De Jong is away in the summer so hopefully they can kick on and win it.

[kumnio]

Would love to Ramos' puss right now.

Glad that Madrid dynasty is over, don't think I've ever seen a luckier team in my lifetime.

[Toepoke]

Thought I'd read up a bit more about Tadic after that performance

Yes!! 

Like Barcelona getting pumped off Bayern and Spain against Holland. Not that Madrid were anywhere near as pleasing on the eye.

Man U off to a flyer in Paris, is another unfeasible comeback on?...

 

[ParisInAKilt]

Unlikely haha

PSG on another level. 

Barcelona letting Dani Alves go was pretty stupid.

[ParisInAKilt]

I know nothing

Skybet we’re doing Lukaku 1st goal at 11/1.

Only shite thing was, that was my main interest in the game.

I'll join you in the soon to be proven wrong stakes... quite fancy MU to win this tie.

PSG as good as they are seem to be playing within themselves, another mistake and you could be right 

[sbcmfc]

Quite a good game, PSG are playing well, but Man Utd look dangerous every time they cross halfway.

Naive/stupid of PSG to have attacked from the off and caught on the counter when they had a 2-0 lead, but making it a much better spectacle.

Wow!

McTominay was superb too

[Mox]

Just seen the penalty there, VAR is nothing but a farce and at the moment a stain on the game.

[kumnio]

VAR penalty for Porto in extra time, its certainly exciting.

[sbcmfc]

VAR penalty against Roma too.

VAR is not good if you’re an Italian defender.

[ParisInAKilt]

Didn’t see that coming. 

Sure they are removing the word deliberate from the handball rule next season 

[Toepoke]

Interesting watching the discussion after the Man U penalty when BT's resident ref was involved.  All the players on the panel said no penalty  (all ex Utd too) but the BT ref said it was clear cut. Apparently turning your back on play while extending an arm to make yourself bigger constitutes deliberate handball if the ball strikes your elbow.

 

Anyway always good to see Neymar raging and greeting in defeat.

 

[ParisInAKilt]

I don’t think his arm was all that extended, not in a make yourself bigger kind of way, looking like a natural position as you jump. They’ll need to clarify the rules.

[Lairdyfaeinverclyde]

£10 on Rashford to score anytime. Placed bet at half time 7/1.

Absolutely.
