That second goal just before half time probably kills it as I can see Liverpool getting a couple more tonight. Roma have looked a mess since going behind. If it finishes 2-0, or Roma can nick a goal you never know, but I'm not hopeful.
Champions League Semi Finals (24th April - 2nd May)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I don’t think Bayern can do them, so it has to be Real. But neither will do it; the writing’s on the wall already.
You see what I'm saying now - Roma have utterly nothing left after the Barca game.
Liverpool are going to the CL final without a doubt. Just hope that Real or Bayern teach them a footballing lesson - because Roma are spent and won't be coming back from this.
To the "Is the United Forum safe to go into yet?" thread!
Just Serie A defenders. One good game was enough for them to be in the semis. Weren't special against Shakhtar or first leg against Barca. Just poor team going forward that rely on playing well at home.
Roma have been absolutely terrible.
Hopefully Madrid beat Bayern because imo Bayerns back line would struggle a lot again Liverpool.

feck off!
have messi and ronaldo actual been better than him?
Foregone conclusion
Roma are Vauxhall conference standard

Balon de Salah! Madrid-bound for sure. First 350,000 000 pound player?
Roma were dominating early on and should have made it count. EDF needs to take out Jesus for Perotti and switch to a 4-3-3. Too many gaps between the CBs that Liverpool are exploiting now.
The team that conceded three against Juventus.
Bayern, to me, are tactically better than Madrid.
Fecking amateur tactics from Roma.
Pathetic. It's like they've never seen a Klopp team play before.
If Liverpool could pick a style of opponent to play against, this would be it.

Just heard the commentator say not one single team has managed to cope against Salah this season… invisible against us 
2nd.
Roma is a really bad team. Games like these make me appreciate Jose. Honestly, 0 shots on target with us, this was such an achievement.
Maybe I've missed something. Never heard or read the 'la' anywhere else except here.
Liverpool are basically Fifa in real life aren't they. Pace abusers up front and then lump the long ball to them. Over and over again. That's all they've done.
There is no such thing as knowing him inside out. Everybody knows what he can do and what he does. The team has to play well/defend well or defend normally to begin with instead of this stupid shit.
Thought Roma were good on the whole, just two moments of clinical finishing the difference.
Good thing they knocked City out, City being much more likely to win the thing. You tools.
Fair play to Liverpool, but I don't want to ever hear them whine again about teams playing long balls over the top. Granted, they're doing it almost perfectly, but it's still a series of long balls up to quick forwards who are getting in behind. It's working and I don't blame them, but it's just the hypocrisy that's galling.
Salah one on one with a keeper he is one of the best... Eeeeeeeee. Bow down.
Even better.
Ronaldo is our only hope.
Suicidal from Roma. Did no one watch us play Liverpool?
I don’t know this manager very well and don’t know how much influence he has over his bunch of players, but this is truly worthy of the sack. I saw the exact same thing against Lazio the other day, a stupid high line and multiple counter attacks - your team is not that good!
Whatever you do, don’t play a high line against Liverpool. You let them charge the game and you counter with control, you never leave a high line. It’s incredibly hard to understand how it’s possible to do this at the highest level. Shame!
This game is even worse than anticipated.

Jose has shown four times how you nullify this side. You don't play a high line and you don't press them in their own half.
Amazing that a coach with a reputation for meticulous preparation has gone there with these tactics.

I'm switching off now, I cant hack the half-time love in.
Salah's an incredible player and I have nothing against him per se, but the rest of it can do one.
I'm out. Tie's over. It'll be 5 before 90mins.

The AOC injury was a blessing in disguise for them, Wijnaldum made far more penetrative runs which unsettled the Roma defence.
Mourinho would be grinning in his hotel room.
6 times la. This season is going to be the death of me. I really didn't think I'd have to suffer seeing Liverpool win the CL anytime soon. This is horrific.
Please save us Ronny.

They'll have the trophy and you'll still be in denial.
Salah brace
2-0
2-0
And us at OT. Like Carlos Carvalhal said Liverpool are like an F1 car. If you put an F1 car in London traffic it will not run very fast. Why on earth are these teams playing right into their hands ffs? We've done pretty well not to concede at Anfield for the last two seasons tbf. You cannot give them that space and expect to get away it. They are the best counter attacking team in the world. Roma's manager should be sacked after tonight. 3 at the back and a high line against Mane, Salah and Firmino. It's like committing suicide.
And defeated Juve 3-0 on their pitch earlier.
Some of the worst defending I've seen in quite a while. Could be 5 or 6 easily.
Any chance we can get West Brom to replace Roma in the 2nd half?
What a post
Are Roma even playing with 10 outfield players? They are so disjointed. Also raises the question what the feck Barca were doing in Rome.
