Posted it in the Other Games Thread, but the post-match interview with Sahin is hard to watch. They've clearly been affected and it's ridiculous it was played tonight.

That interview with Sahin is hard to watch. That game should never have been played.

Just about 5 meters offside.

Excellent pen. Had it just been about 5 meters more to the right he would've had it on target Wow Monaco are good.

Likes to run the chanels from what I've seen :lol:

Grown up men. Pathetic.

Dybala MOTM but Alves and Chiellini were monsters tonight. Dani bossed Neymar for 90minutes.

Mandzukic with four yellow card offences tonight.

How is Mandzukic still on the pitch.

Absolutely pathetic rule, but rules have been there before so it's the right decision. Still ridiculous you get an added two game ban for applauding the ref. Is that just a rule in La Liga? Sounds like a cracking rule. Dissuade horrid little dweebs like Neymar from acting the prick. I'd imagine so since there's been other players who have gotten similar suspensions for the same offence. Although VI probably knows better.

Undeserved. Not the 2nd booking, but his first one was ridiculous. For tying his shoes for too long according to the ref. He does get enough yellow cards to be liable to get sent off a few times a season though

You sure about that? Thought Juninho Pernambucano was the one who popularised it.

Wow goalie would've saved that.

Same. One of the worst decisions I've seen.

that defending

That defense is still horrible. Although they have enough fire power to do what Brazil did in 2002. Struggle in the qualifiers and then win it all. Bit scared that might happen. Oh aye, they've a couple of half decent defensive players full stop. Was reading something the other day suggesting their FA is totally broke too. Messi has been paying for some of the travel etc. and Bauza is managing for nowt (might explain his work). Argies being broke. Quelle surprise

Neymar. He's on another planet for the national team. Also, before Tite we were 6th with 9points in 6 games, now we're 1st with 33 points, 9 points ahead of 2nd placed in 14 games having scored 25 and conceded twice in that 8 games span. And first team apart from hosts Russia to qualify for the WC.

1-0 Bolivia. Argentina are horrible like.

Bolivia the much better team here. Argentina look lost. Letting Bolivia control the tempo which isn't the greatest tactic to go for at that altitude. Better to have the ball and just pass it around.

I'd be inclined to agree, but I don't think anyone is in a position to criticize this Brazilian team under Tite.
