Wow. What a call at this stage of this tie. Holy hell. I agree there's contact, but I just don't know. Great header down by Ronaldo to set that up. Clearly Ronaldo will take it, as well.
If Madrid had scored to make it 2-1 and carried that until about the 70th minute, I think the tone of the game would change a great deal. Only needing 1 to force extra time at 2-0 and needing 2 to win it definitely feel different.
Now of course, they're on even footing in the tie, but Juvy...
Thought the 2nd goal kind of came against the run of play. Surprised Madrid hasn't punched one in. Sets up for a lot of drama in this 2nd half, though. If Madrid can hold the fort for the first 20-25 minutes and score a goal though, it becomes a big hill to climb again.
I can't believe Barca blew that agg lead. Roma seemed to deserve the result as well looking at the match stats. Barca slight edge in possession but you always expect that. Otherwise massive game and result for Roma. If Bayern go through, semis going to have 1 team each from Spain, England...
Grubauer has been the better goalie for awhile now. When he got the start in Pittsburgh with the division on the line and the game against Nashville, writing was on the wall.
There's parts I can enjoy from all of the movies. There's no avoiding that a lot of Episode 1-3 (mostly 1 and 2) isn't very good. Just as there's no avoiding the huge plot issues in 8, and the lack of any coherent feel from 7 into 8.
Not sure I like the 4th and 10 option, could increase the conversion rate by quite a bit and while executing onside kicks well is a niche skill, it can be important enough for a good kicker/special teams unit to help sway a game. The 4th and 10 model just gives even more power to the teams with...
So basically everything set save for if Boston can grab #1 seed in the East today. Battle of PA lives again, Caps get a Torts' coached team one more time in Columbus. Some good match ups out west as well.
That's why you always leave open that miracle scenario. It's happened before, it will happen again. Roma I just don't think is strong enough to beat Barca, and Juvy with no Dybala going to be hard pressed to overcome a 3-0 deficit (which is 3 away goals for Real). Can pretty much rubber stamp...
You know I'd forgotten that the Browns signed Carlos Hyde. As long as the Giants don't take the position player out of Barkley/Chubb/Fitz at #2 that Cleveland rates the highest, the Browns will get the full win win taking their QB at #1 and whoever they feel is the best position player in the...
Never say never in some of these, although I'd say the Madrid/Juvy and Barca/Roma ties are already over. Frankly the Liverpool/Man City tie is all but over, the only thing that gives me pause is LIverpool's defense going to Manchester. Problem there is I can't see their offense being held in...
Not sure I've seen the height on the jump like that one. Maybe the one Ibra had for Sweden from 30 yards out.
Still, to score in 10th straight Champs League game, 2 goals and an assist now at Juvy. King of Europe.
Universe #3 would be way better than only 1 management, that's for sure. You'd think there was a faction that knows about the faction that's trying to start shit between the two. Honestly how dumb are these fucks that both sides aren't getting supreme advantages out of these things 30 years in.
Part of me likes the slow pace, part of me wonders if it's just like you said, to stretch out too little story over too much time. Wish the final scene would have had more to it, like a secret we didn't know get revealed, etc.
