EPTI'm really happy for Sanogo. In eight months he went from Ligue 2 to starting in the knockout stage of the Champions League against the reigning champions.

Ofc Arsenal had no chance after one man down. As a matter of fact if it ended 0:1 instead of 0:2 they might still have had a good shot at it. 0:2 on the other hand is probably game over .. Atletico was very bad btw.. They will not make it vs any other team except miland imo.. But who knows.. | ||

it was sad that the ref had to give a red for a unfortunate situation. many great plays though, especially Kroos chipping the ball over the defense 2 times. i dont think its over at all. Arsenal will probably need 3 goals but thats very well possible. | ||

The rule is brutal but makes a lot of sense.. imho yellow + one goal on the board, no penalty, would be much better for the remaining game | ||

- if inside the box, penalty is given, but whether it's a card depends on the challenge (if light and scoring position, yellow, if heavy/dangerous, red) - outside the box, like before (red for a clear scoring chance, yellow for breaking a counter) But rules like this could cause a defender to wait making the challenge until inside the box, which would just be funny. Time punishment is coming!  | ||

Really, I don't even understand why this is being argued, it's not like we haven't seen what happens without this rule. The rule was changed maybe 20-25 years ago, anyone old enough will remember, it was and is a very very good change. If fans don't want to see these kind of cards, then coaches should tell their players to be a bit more careful when they're the last man. By the way, if those of you who are younger haven't seen what the game was like in general, before FIFA said "enough is enough" and decided to change the rules to protect attacking players for the good of the game. Here's a little reminder: In this game Gentile committed 23 fouls against Maradona, with many more that weren't called. All he got was a yellow card. | ||

The red card + penalty has nothing to do with protecting attacking players, a reckless challenge is a reckless challenge and is a red card regardless of position. The red card rule for a goalscoring opportunity was introduced to prevent defenders or goalkeepers from taking out a player who was bound for goal. The corresponding penalty however is only a consequence of the position where the foul is being committed, there is no different rule. I personally would much rather have a goal awarded btw. People do not want to see free goals, but they do not want to see a potentially great match ruined by a red card + penalty. A free goal is the lesser of two evils. | ||

To those who disliked the game so much though can I ask why? You don't like seeing one team completely dominate, or one team "park the bus" and defend for their lives? I think the defensive mindset and playing down a man made for an enthralling match. In these matches I find myself more drawn to watching the defense maintain their shape and put in a crazy physical shift. It was still some of the best quality football in the world. | ||
