Champions League - Round of 16

Awful from Courtois…5 a side type keeping…with a fella looking to come out of goals.

One touch which was a tackle by Rudiger

Chelsea have came into it a bit, conceding could be a blessing in disguise for them

Unbereal by Messi

Great finish too

Class from Messi, thought when Dembele took a touch the chance was gone

Messi is a genius.

Courtois a bit suspect again?

On the day Stephen Hawking died, Barney Ronay’s immortal line about Cesc Fabregas being “the footballing equivalent of Stephen Hawking, a containable high class player, the trundling mega‑brain in need of a supporting entourage to wheel him into place” immediately came to mind, as the hapless, stationary Fabregas was dispossessed in midfield, leading to the goal that will surely kill off Chelsea.

Wonderful by Iniesta there

Giroud shit/anonymous in a big game. Quelle surprise

A better immortal line about Cesc is ‘the biggest cunt ofaan in world football’

Barca haven’t been great here

No, it definitely isn’t.

And I’ve no idea what an “ofaan” is.

Giroud clearly just elbowed Pique in the face and Ronnie and George are complaining about Pique getting a free kick

An elbow in the face is usually a foul

Yeah I know, that’s why I brought it up

George helpfully pointing out that if Chelsea score twice the whole complexion of the tie changes.

Courtois wouldn’t have let either of those goals in when he was playing for Atletico Madrid in 2014.

Conte has coached very well in this tie and will be unlucky to go out
