I would wait until the second leg before talking ****.

At the moment I think only City and Madrid have better squads, among teams left in the competition.

Bayern's defense is shaky and PSG is not that scary either.

Madrid's teams is really, really strong. What folks who don't watch them probably don't get is that for once it's not all star team, it's a team with heart that plays with a midtier hustle first mentality (Mbappe would ruin this). Kroos in the middle, slow as hell, is still a thing of beauty controlling the game. Have guys like Joselu and Brahim coming off the bench to change things up (that Brahim goal in the last game). They're winning playing Tchouameni and Camavinga as center backs ... When they get healthy watch out.


Madrid being thoroughly outplayed so far but no goals yet.


And of course Madrid score.

Off a very intelligent vinicius cut across the middle. Dude has really improved in terms of reading the game.


On one hand Madrid are luckboxes and I want them to lose. On the other vini is awesome and more of him is good (Jude too)


What a ball from Odegaard


Top class from Odegaard.


One minute stoppage time?? Lol


Arsenal have been **** in 3 halves against Porto. I’m beginning to think porto might have something to do with it.


Thats absurd to call that goal off


Just as de facto rules are being discussed in the other thread, here's something that's always called against attackers and never against defenders 😀

If Havertz is enough of an idiot to grab the shirt of the king of all shithouses for no reason at all he deserves the blame for getting the goal called off


What do they have to do to get a yellow? Evanilson has committed ~15 fouls.


I know the Emirates is not used to Champions League football but booing a player being stretchered off seems like poor etiquette to me


Porto have absolutely bodied us.


0 added time?

Ref has been weird.


Random.org has told me to bet Porto, so **** Arsenal, works well for ABC in the PL I guess


Spurs fans should be supporting Arsenal in this


Never in doubt.

Arsenal have not missed a penalty all season, including the Community Shield.


Never easy is it. Into the quarters we go after forever


Arsenal penalties looked flawless. I guess rotating penalty takers has worked in their favor.


91M Euros for making the last eight.


Damn Atletico are level.


Game has been amazing

Athletico should start every game down a goal


Oof that's a bad miss. Had that ball on a plate.

LOL Simeone's reaction.
