Yeah. Referee was even like "dude, he's concussed" and the medic said "nope, he can play". What the hell was that.

Other than that, so far Spurs not impressing at all.

We were way better in the first half. Second half Spurs were better but they hardly got any real opportunities. Still good win for us.

Great result for Ajax, but should probably have been one more and somehow doesn't feel all that comfortable, spurs may have been thoroughly underwhelming today but this tie certainly isn't over.

I agree, but an away win is a good start all the same. And the way they made Spurs look like a mid league Eredivisie team in the first half was impressive.

I also found they stabilized a lot with Mazraoui for Schone. Not quite sure how that moved the midfield around, but seems to have taken the bite out of what Spurs were doing in the second half. So I am also quite happy with the ability to adapt as well.

Apart from that i think the biggest change in the 2nd half was how choppy/broken up the play was. Constant small fouls and at some point the obligatory time wasting, again yes ultimately a success for Ajax but that is probably why it somehow feels underwhelming to me.
Also spurs 51% possession, 12 shots, 1 on goal. Stats sound exactly as harmless as they felt, really need son back to have a repeat of the QF madness apparently.

Before the game, everyone wouldve been very content with a 0-1, now it feels like this is far from over. Sissoko was so good.

Yeah but the biggest value they would get from Son would need Laporte level brainfarts. Somehow I think this Ajax team wont do that. Heck 9 times out of 10 even Laporte wouldnt (and doesnt) do that.

After the underdogs match, tonight we get the favorites! What a matchup. I'm expecting Valverde to put a very conservative line up, maybe even a 4-4-2 with Vidal. He's not going to let Liverpool counter, I think it's going to be a "boring" game similar to the City Liverpool games this season.

I believe Liverpool has a small edge, their physicality isn't something Barça is used to and they don't play possession as well as previous years which helped countering the press. I think a goalless draw would be a good result for Barça.

Liverpool reminds me like 2012-2013 Bayern. I think they will crush Valverde Barca which relies so much on Messi (and is horrendous to see playing)

I don't have any preference for who wins between Liverpool and Barca, so I'm just hoping for a great game

Firminho is only fit enough for bench and they have no on else basically, so they throw Milner or Keita out wide? Not to bad, its all about keeping Messi quiet, if Liverpool do that they win the tie.
