Champions League 16/17

General

Feel sorry for Emery but he's done. This kind of result makes or breaks careers. They should take Wenger off our hands.

Hope Barca play Bayern next

Wenger to PSG

Neymar really rarely disappoints in big games. Was a bit subdued for the first 85, then scores a top drawer free kick, converts a penalty in extra time and provides a chipped assist with his weaker foot afterwards for the winner

Suárez dived but I can see why the linesman (assuming here) gave it, Marquinhos was pretty dumb to flail his arms in front of Suárez like that. As impressive as PSG were in the first tie as poor were most of them today, Rabiot and the defence especially had mares. Not easy to not get mullered by Barcelona the way they played in the first half but after 3-1 and after Barcelona's heads dropped they really should've killed the tie

Barcelona have pulled their finger out, looking to be a threat again. Wenger to PSG!

Why did Neymar take that last penalty btw? Did Messi pussy out?

They interchange. Neymar takes some, sometimes Suarez too.

😆 I turned it off at the 83rd minute to prep for class. Tie was well and truly over! I kindof hate PSG, spent time as a youth in Marseille for a few summers, but I can't wait to see how crooked the ref was. If you're name isn't Bayern or Barca, you're fucked as far as officiating is concerned. Sport is really ruined at this point, it's all about the small dramas of less than 100 people every year!

The CL has become like the Ballon dor.

Bravery defeated cowardice in this game.
PSG are so much better than that display.

Wenger for PSG

Come on, it makes perfect sense. They're French and bottlejobs.

Gurgen

To be fair it's hard to play against 13 men.

I hate barca but PSG were shit.
Arsenal at the allianz arena-level shit.
They could not keep the ball or pass water.
The ref and uefa did not make them forget how to play or put away the 3 other good chances they had to kill the game.
They lost exactly the same way barca lost to them a fortnight ago.
No conspiracies or excuses.
I agree more with PSG coach, Unai Emery, post-match statement.
"The truth is we have let a huge opportunity get away and we are aware of that. In the first-half it was more our fault than them playing well," said Spanish coach Emery whose side trailed 2-0 at the break.
In the second-half it changed. The penalty (first penalty converted by Lionel Messi for 3-0) got them off to a great start, but I was already calmer because I could see the team was responding better, were better positioned on the pitch and could do damage.
We had chances to make it 3-2 and then the refereeing decisions, I don't know if they were right or not, but for sure they damaged us. Then in the last two minutes we lost everything we had recovered in the second-half.
Barcelona are capable of this in their stadium. In the last few minutes they played all or nothing and they have beaten us."
