Rodygo seems to be drifting left as
Well. Not sure itās so clever with walkers back there.
Vini and MBappe both heavily favour wide left- I think Luis Enrique is fucking around with KM a bit making him play up top.
I donāt know will Vini stay on that long in Madrid after MBappe joins. MāBappe will play left wing Iād imagine. Vini would be a savage number 9 if he directed his energy that way. If Barcelona had a bob-Vini would be a brilliant signing.
Vinicius is playing through the middle tonight, veering right almost. Trying to isolate himself against the slower players it looks like, let Rodrygo occupy Walker.

Not watching that game- but 1 v 1 dribblers seem to to have very little success v Walker. Rodrygo might do him by taking up a clever position and picking a pass though.
Find the corner Martinelli
Real Madrid are some club in fairness lads.

That is savage-Iād never heard that story. They did some job to win that final against Athleticoā¦sickened them with the late goals. I think thats the match where Ramos coined the phrase about ālearning to sufferā in big games which Graeme Hunter used to quote on OTB.
He has the look of a Kerry footballer in that photo even.
Arsenal are a bit like the Cork footballers of the 00āsā¦beasts all over the field but āmarkableā up front

Great to see the Madrid players call out Grealish for his play acting tonight
Must be savage on pitch GAA banter here between Carvajal and Grealish.
Begob.
Bayern match is awful stuff. The trapdoor of fail to score or youāre out being removed takes from nights like these.
City definitely had the better of the last 10 minutes, a lot more possession and a lot more dangerous-looking possession. Real had looked more likely to score after getting the first, their counter-attack is so dangerous. Every time Vinicius got the ball, it looked like something was going to happen.
Having said all that, Real have defended resolutely. Very disciplined. Corners looking the most likely route for City but a long 45 to go.
Carvajal could be in bother on a yellow card. They definitely started to tire a bit towards the end of that half.
Unreal defending and block from Nacho.
This rent-a-crowd at the Ethihad are creating a good atmosphere

Orsato has always been a strong ref.
If Madrid can hold out for another 10 and bring Modric on.
