Do we need a closeup on players after every save or miss while a counter is happening on the other end? Why cut away from the action on the pitch to show us some wanker holding up a board when we can perfectly see the added time next to the scoreline?

This is the only sport where you routinely miss the live action on the field for no good reason.

Thank you. I have been meaning to mention this everytime we play but forget. It grinds my gears having to miss sequences and only hearing the fans roar or boo for a good 10-15 seconds before it cuts back to the game

I'm surprised that Julian Brandt is still at the club. Still living off of his 5 brilliant performances per season Laughing

Am i crazy or has Dembele gotten smarter?

Haven"t watched any domestic PSG games this season, but looking at the second half vs Dortmund right now, he's not doing anything sensational, but he does reasonsble and logical things. Hard to believe.

Nothing has changed he is still a bad at finishing

by Vibe Wed May 01, 2024 8:43 pm

Yeah but he's making good runs, positions himself logically, his decisions are lucid, even in passing.

Should have scored 2 goals though.

by BarcaLearning Wed May 01, 2024 8:44 pm

Typical Dembele to miss at crucial moment lol...

by Vibe Wed May 01, 2024 8:46 pm

Sancho ballin'

Plsss PSG turn this around in the second leg... otherwise it will be the worst final in yrs im sure since both Bayern/Real would rape Dortmund we know Razz

by Thimmy Wed May 01, 2024 8:49 pm

Fullkrug has had a relatively good match, but Dortmund would've really benefited from having a more competent forward in this match. They've had so many good opportunities to head the ball in, and yet I don't think any of them have actually hit the target.

There is a certain charm in having a team composed of so many players that are over the hill/rejects from other clubs, but a little bit more quality would've been really welcome for this team.

Moukoko comes on cheers

PSG flopped...again... man...

Who woulda thought Dortmund would be leading going into a second leg CL semi n might make the final, all while being freakin 5th in the league lol?

PSG should still do it though... both semis second legs will be intense affairs Very Happy

Come on PSG, smash Dortmund, then smash Real in the final if Bayern cant in the second leg

It amazes me how you can be consistently wrong all the times. Laughing

Bayern Munich is a team not to be underestimated and neither should one underestimate tuchel.

Real Madrid would do well to tread carefully. ManCity despite winning a treble is still a mentally weak team. Bayern is a lot of things but mentally weak ain't one of them.

Tbh if PSG didnt smash us (11 v 11), i dont think they are capable of smashing anyone Laughing

by halamadrid2 Thu May 02, 2024 9:18 am

QSG should fool Demebele into thinking he is playing against Barca Laughing

Dortmund have only conceded 2 goals against QSG in their 3 meetings this season. Not bad but man they look like conceding everytime a team attacks them.

Barca should hang an effigy of Araujo in the town square. He squandered Barça's biggest chance of making the CL final by getting himself stupidly sent off.

by Arquitecto Fri May 03, 2024 12:26 am

PSG losing shouldn't surprise anyone BarcaLeearn is the only one who praised them simply out of cope in losing to them.

They are not a stellar team by any means and Dortmund this season are just by far my best pick for how well they have fared in Europe.

by BarcaLearning Fri May 03, 2024 4:32 am

Lol, I been praising them like all or half the season, as long as Enrique dont mess around they are a good team, at least loaded with talents, anyway, Dortmund being the worst one in yrs getting this far is the biggest surprise though...

by Lord Awesome Fri May 03, 2024 9:30 am

Paris can still do it. They were unlucky to not even get a goal.

by BarcaLearning Tue May 07, 2024 6:34 pm

Same teams as 1st leg except PSG with Ramos in for Barcola who was terrible, so Mbappe will be LW, nice Very Happy

COME ON PSG GOGOGOGO~

by Thimmy Tue May 07, 2024 6:43 pm

I put my money on PSG tonight. As much as I favor Dortmund as a club and want them to win this tie, it just seems highly unlikely that their comparatively modest level of overall talent will get them through a second leg against PSG, and without the yellow wall this time. It’s already quite sensational that they won the first leg with their current team.

by Vibe Tue May 07, 2024 7:15 pm

I've really come to like Vitinha as a player

by Vibe Tue May 07, 2024 7:36 pm

Adeyemi runs like wind ffs

by halamadrid2 Tue May 07, 2024 7:38 pm

Will be the most one sided final in years. Glad we knocked out City. Couldn't havr them win this comp back to back
