The nature of football assessment is funny. If PSG go out now, undoubtedly fingers would be pointed at Pochettino for failing. Managers don’t have a control pad. He is powerless from that kind of stupidity from Donnarumma.

Vasquez...
Modric growing into it, could it happen?
Henry was very very similar, just those strides to get away from people in a blink
Was going to say earlier that it will take a mistake for Real to get back into this...now it feels unless PSG kill their spirit with a goal quick, momentum will shift to Real now.
Camavinga has made a huge difference to Real Madrid's energy and tempo.
PSG will go through
Davies is fastest. There's a quote from Kingsley Coman where he says Davies is faster than Mbappe.
PSG defence doesn’t look infallible.
Why didn’t Donnarumma just stick it out for a corner after he realised he fecked up? 
There is something really enjoyable when wannabe keeper sweepers make similar mistakes. 
Why do defenders think they can 't shots from so far...it almost never works out. I suppose it's for the super rare occasions that it does...
If Poch has any cojones, he'd sub now Messi or Neymar, or both
He's 1m85, hardly a midget..
I'm always in favour of the away goals rule as it makes the whole Champions League more exciting and alluring but watching this game now and you think of it, it seems rather fair as PSG could score 1 more and the game is over. I still prefer the away goals rule though.
Paredes should be off there
That was blatant foul.. there was no advantage
Know many barely 6ft midgets?
Well they did lose their last match in the league to Nice.
Real were always going to score, both teams were, it's a matter of who would leak more.
Both managers auditioning for the United job.
Messi completely disappeared on second half. Psg playing like a man down.
It's the kind of things I always do in FIFA, but yeah I hate it. Ball pops out after a cross and the player it drops to just has to blast it at goal for some reason.
Bizarre. It was right in front of the ref
Good possession play there
Yes Davies is absolutely rapid.
That was some great passing around by PSG…
Funny sub this?
Paredes being subbed.
Every team needs a Paredes
If PSG lose this it can't be blamed on Pochettino that's for sure.
Verratti never loses the ball. It's really quite incredible
Really? He stood on his toe. Foul, nothing more.
What's the difference?Are you supporting Mbappe or Madrid
Thats not entirely true. The difference is in intent. GKs of old would make this mistake, sure. But this was made because of intent. He never intended to just clear it because thats considered “poor” these days. I’ve seen ederson and allison make the exact same mistake. DDG does not do that, because he’s not “‘modern” enough.
United has a keeper exactly like what you want. If you're fine with not winning a trophy, continue to be stuck in your old fashion ways
Such calamitous errors mainly come from the progressiveness’ bandwagon brainwashing… if you just put the ball out for a corner, you cannot play high level football any more. That said, Dollarumma fecking PSG is still better than fecking Italy two weeks from now, so let be it.
I may be a bit biased against Paredes...
