Man City flapping here but Munich fucked this tie in the first leg.

Bayern left their shooting boots in the dressing room.

Upemecano having a tough night tonight.

[Mr. Brightside]

f**k off

[jagfox]

The ref is a fucking shambles. 

[Mr. Brightside]

I despise the fact that players are getting booked for these stupid handball decisions.

[Dirty Sanchez]

Got a defender on a yellow now for getting hit by the ball when he was specifically doing his best not to get hit by it.

[jagfox]

Bizarre he got booked considering the amount of players that avoid a booking for giving away penalties, these days.

I don’t understand why Upamecano stuck his arm out. He did exactly what he was meant to  by putting his arms behind his back, but then pulls out his arm at the last second. Only has himself to blame

I think it was because he was turning with some speed in that direction, his arm just came away from behind his back.

Could be. When I saw him put his arms behind I’m I was like no way that’s a handball, but as the replay continued and his arm came away from his body I had no complaints 

[Iminavest]

That turn on the break from Coman was filth. Class player.

[Crawford Bridge]

I'm enjoying how nippy this match is becoming. 

I'd be very surprised if Tuchel doesn't get sent to the stand before full-time.

I still don’t think it is, It grazes the bottom of his elbow from pretty close up. He needs to be able to move his arms to turn.

I hate these “penalties”. They really are the lamest of the lame. A booking for having your arm connected to your body. Now it’s T Shirt sleeves, unnatural position (whatever the hell that is meant to mean…..to jump, humans use their arms for muscle leverage and balance. Watching defenders trying to leap with their arms by their sides is basically making defending a cross a kind of punk mosh pit. It’s ludicrous.

If that ball had skimmed his arm outside the box, would he have been booked?

Agree. Elite football petulant behaviour is always a good watch.

[jagfox]

I'll not lie, I'm just watching the second half for a Rodri and a Musiala booking

[Dirty Sanchez]

Why does Rodri make shorts look like Simon Cowell's troosers?

Absolutely.

The "nobody wants to see that" narrative pushed by commentators annoys me. In my experience, the vast majority of people love seeing footballers lose the plot.

I quite liked at the start that they weren’t clutching their pearls over Mane’s punch on Sane. Talked about it pretty reasonably considering.

I am also a big fan of it kicking off, a few fights is a good laugh.
