Really good goal from Sterling, ran all the way through the wall of blue.
Chelsea could lose this, Pool throwing the kitchen sink at it.
It's staggering how much shit he gets away with.
Sakho clipped Costa with his trailing foot as well, very sneaky.

I'm of the opinion that getting away goals is more important than being tight away from home.
But then again I don't have any silverware to my name.
Hopefully Gervinho gets a big ban for what he did yesterday, although watching him go mental was funny.
That movie has been removed What did he do?
Another version of 'I want both teams to lose' derby.

Suarez has really lost his touch. Skyed a point blank shot, beautiful ball from Rakitic gave Suarez a goal on a platter

and Torres does a Torres, loses the ball on a breakaway

0-0 halftime
Atletico is doing well defensively (surprise surprise). Messi gets triple teamed every time he gets the ball. So Barca either needs to figure out how to get Messi into better positions or Neymar and Suarez needs to step up. Game should really be 1-0 for Barca as Suarez has missed a sitter.
Noooooooo!
Madrid got Odegaard.
Greenock Morton woulda been better son...

Ryan Gauld's 2nd for Sporting was a pearler.
Some boi
Look at all those punters though, it's just like an SPFL game, nicely taken goal though. As for Odegaard, what's the odds on him being loaned back to his old club for a year or so to mature a wee bit before he heads to Real Madrid B, have to think it will be a possibility at the least, get him some Spanish lessons & all that sort of jazz, after all he's barely 16 right now. Watch this, now I've said that he'll be picking up a La Liga medal this May.
Arnold Peralta has left Rangers by mutual consent, wasn't really a "bad" player just played in a position which wasn't really a tactical priority for Rangers, was a bit mouthy with things he said but I'll put that down to frustration & lost in translation, appears to be going back to his old team in Honduras, happy trails I guess.

I can say Spurs vs Blades probably wasn't that enjoyable to watch from a neutrals pov, but think we played well created a couple of good chances and definitely deserved a draw. Spurs looked terrible and might be my bias but was never a handball was completely accidental his arms cam forward as he tried to stop didn't even know he'd hit the ball till ref gave penalty.
I can see us scraping a 1-0 win at the lane so we still have a chance of getting to the final, especially if Spurs play as bad as they did last night.
The handball may not be deliberate but his hand doesnt hit that ball and Soldados 1 on 1 with the keeper, you've gotta give a pen for it. Also it confuses me when you call your place the lane too :P
I think Spurs will just see out the second leg tbh, we were never really in danger last night so it was just sloppy from our attacking perspective. I dont think we're in danger though.
