Feel like Benzema could have done a bit better there
Champions League Semi Finals (9th - 17th May)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
That was some move from Real
Have a horrible feeling City will embarrass Real
Me too
Just don't see Pep winning a major away CL tie. Think it'll be a score draw.
Benzema and Modric never cease to amaze me. At their ages, they should look like luxury players... but they are still very agile and have slick movement. But I don't watch enough of La Liga Madrid to see how much they hold back for the CL. Very Giggs-esque levels of conditioning.
The way how both sides come out of under pressure and how backpasses are actually unlocking the field for them is amazing to see for a neutral.
Far too much space for city!
City far better than this Madrid team. They are going to have to rely on luck and big moments again. They can't outplay City.
City will score.
No doubt about it.
Cnuts have the ball too much.

Cnuts have the ball too much.
When i watch these teams I wonder what we play at United.
So we are going for the " lets all support City" posts in the hope that our Utd supporting bad luck will rub off and Madrid will win it.
Sound Logic . I'm in
Huge respect for City in Spain? They hate oil clubs over there.
Utter fecking nonsense BT

Barca tribute act.
Individual brilliance and experience are the only things that will could this Madrid team. Man City are streets ahead quality wise.
City can essentially secure the treble today
It's that individual experience, vibes and moments why Madrid are so good in this tournament irrespective of who they face.
Real were always going to play on the counter. No team outpossesses City
Madrid are terrible
Benzema seems in a good night (even if he could have done better with Vinicius' ball). Modric overwhelmed so far, which is never good for Real Madrid. It's going to be a rough game for Madrid but everything is possible on the counter.
Go to river has shit the bed. Help.
I'm praying to any god that will listen for a Madrid win.
What Pep did with Stones is quite something.
Cmon Madrid
City forcing a lot of saves from Courtois atm
Haaland already adapted on Pep's diving school
Wow, didn't know Haaland is a diving cnut. Imagine being this strong and still flop like that.
Rather telling that this game did not sell out.
Who told Darren Fletcher that shouting constituted football commentary?
Real have zero chance of winning this tie.
Rich coming from someone having a team full of them.
So calm Courtois
Very good ref so far, very assertive, did fall into easy trap, that's good news.
That was a great tackle
Who?
Not only with Stones. Also with Akanji who was often a liability at Dortmund.
City make it look easy don’t they
Madrid barely able to get a touch
Madrid barely able to get a touch
City looking dominant. If Madrid can hold them off reckon Madrid will grow into this esp second half
Madrid are Madrid. Looks like every game last season in Champions League.
City are just boring. Good but boring with their possesion game.

Didn't follow Akanji before his time at Manchester so I wouldn't know but I'll take your word for it.
