2019/2020 UEFA Champions League - Round of 16 Draw

100% but that adds to the sense of menace and theater of the whole thing- ill take that over a jim gavin speech placating the opposition

That wasn’t football mate. Kicking the ball away isn’t football. Awful stuff.

Did the Athletico bus get out of Anfield ok last night?

It’s still parked in front of the kop mate.

Diego is a great guy - Best of luck to Atlti

“What I have to say, and will be saying at the next UEFA coaches’ meeting, is what I think is unfair,” said the Atletico boss.

“Today was unjust because we had 30 minutes of extra time to score three away goals. Liverpool never had that. We had 30 more minutes to score an away goal and Liverpool didn’t. That’s not fair.

“The rule favoured us today but it might go against us in the future. Liverpool had 30 minutes fewer to score an away goal. That’s wrong.

What a guy. I hope they get the chance to win it now.

The advantage of having the home leg second more than cancels that out.

Diego must have been laughing up his sleeve when he gave that quote.

I hope he was coughing into his sleeve anyway

Is this factually correct?

No.

A two legged knockout tie.

The only teams that have beaten them have been Real four times and Juve once. They failed to get out of their group in 17/18.

As if I pay any heed to what he posts

You should you might learn something.

Welcome to last night. It’s knockout tie too.

I’d expect a decision shortly on the status of UEFA competitions for 2020.

Liverpool will be the last ever European Cup holders.

Champions league looks set to be cancelled.
