Well, that's all atletico can do against an organised defence.
They don't have a messi or an ibra. They can lob the ball in or shoot.

One shot will go in though, 1-0 seems likely.
My dick has shrunk to the point where it looks like I have 3 balls.

Unfortunately, many forget that these people (football teams) are playing because it is their careers. Entertaining football should be second to their desire for results and the continual success of the football club.

Of course as fans of your own football clubs, you wouldn't mind "boring" tactics if it brings results. At the end of the day, you want the club you support to win. So we'd be naturally bias.

Try to remember that and not be too harsh when football teams are playing "negative" football. Sure we like lots of goals and drama and be entertained, but there's no need to be so critical of it.

My 2 cents.

we are the ones paying and making that career possible. They should adjust to us not the other way around.

I think this is a good prediction!

Also; how often has one team owned three keepers who are on the pitch in a CL semi?

Wow what a good solid display so far..HOWEVER, Atletico have been poor crossing, they will only get better. We need to keep winning the first ball and tell Torres to fucking make runs behind the defense not stand around and offer nothing to the game.
Cannot believe Ramires messed up that counter as well, damn. I had Barca nerd chills when he was breaking through, but he just froze
Ah well, you either get World Class or Poor when Ramires is in the attacking half

You can't blame Torres anything. He's on a completely deserted island with nothing but miles and miles of ocean around him.

All Chelsea is able to do is kicking the ball to the Atletico defense and you call that a solid display? Game's about scoring goals, not who can kick it across the midfield line the most.

Except one team is trying, the other team isn't. Considering the attacking talent they can field, even with Hazard out, it's an embarrasing display as usual.

the only reason there's money in football is because fans watch it or do you think companies would sponsor a sport without people watching it?

I'm pretty sure there are no teams that play amazing football when they are in the 4th league somewhere.

What is this shitty debate btw

well, all I'm saying is sometimes teams are just playing according to their strengths to win. Not everyone is a barca or a bayern, anyway, let's all just agree to disagree lol...

and yeah, I think it's going to be a 1-0 as well. Hopefully in Chelsea's favour xD

If Chelsea win, I get half a euro on my betting ticket. Pray for that 0:1 boys

Why are Luiz and Costa not fighting?

When 2 dickheads meet they are supposed to fight, like Chiellini vs Mandzukic(or Luiz vs Mandzukic), so why aren't they fighting?

Would make the game more fun, this is too tame right now.
