Yeah i guess Ancelotti won it then was sacked the following season right. So i guess that stands xD

Can't see Real winning it this year though, seem awfully set up defensively with many holes. Think they would be free pickings for any Prem team minus Scouse cuz they can't defend for shit either.

Ref gets two decisions spot on here, doesnt he? Llorente isnt half tugging that shirt, and Son clearly makes a full stop.

They're both holding onto each other and holding in the box is a judgement call by the referee. Even if you consider Llorente to be fouling more than the defender, there is no way that meets the "clear and definite wrong decision" threshold. Especially because the referee wasn't asked to look at it again as he is if it is a judgement call.

The coming to a full stop rule was clarified a few years ago, feints are allowed in the run up and only a foul if he is feinting to actually take the shot.

Heh, I took a look at the match calendar back then. Ancelotti won UCL with Real 24 May 2014. Got sacked 25 May 2015.

The protective spell seems to last exactly one year. I wonder is Zidane is aware of this.

Hmm why boycotting away games? Away team don't get any match attendance income for away games right?

Thousands apparently if not more during domestic games, huge gaps that TV broadcasts can't ignore would be hard to ignore. Just like last game against city when fans started leaving after 60 minutes.

Oh dear, well gives him a good rest before the world cup, at worst from today it is 1st June he returns which is 15 days before the world cup begins. Has two weeks of a "mini pre season" to get fitness up and then get them out of the group stages. Think this isn't that bad of a blow for Brazil, just a big one for PSG

Honestly, I don't think it matters for PSG either.

If they can beat RM without Neymar, they can do the whole CL without him (so 3 weeks is the same as 3 months). If they can't, they just have the domestic games to play for, and they can do that just fine without Neymar too.

True, true. I think they lost the champs league tie after first leg, 3-1 down vs a team like Real Madrid is asking for trouble, you might beat them, but no way you beat them 2-0/3-1 etc they score to much.

It is/was very possibe in Paris, even against cheaters Madrid who equalized at home with an offside dive by kroos.

Zidane knows how it works, knows it has already been decided that Barcelona wins, ever since Neymar left.

And I see the anti-VAR propaganda and its corrupt use by shameless disgusting people continues... no news here.

Sergio Ramos best defender? Not even close, even if referees allows him to do anything. He actually screws up too many times, and would be a lot unreliable if it wasn't for the UEFIFA scums.

And it is already 2-0 Man City.

Calling it the later this game progresses the more Arsenal will attempt to foul possibly injure Man City.

city's attack is carving through arsenal defence.

Like hot knife through butter.

Arsenal isn't even playing that bad but its kinda sad how unimaginative their attack looks since start of this season. They really haven't been playing anythign resembling old wengerball style since 2014 or so

I couldnt watch the first gif, but on the second: Holy shitsnacks, the pressing from Arsenal is so bad! Its like watching a bunch of kids playing. Loads of energy, but no plan.
