Feeeeeeeeeeee - Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew

darkskol

Saved by the flag but good initial save by reina

ntlbell

hard to tell from the angle but that goal looked ok

Will Babel finally shine, its made for him f he comes on for Torres. This Madrid defence is muck

he was off when it left the keepers boot

He was a mile offside and you on the wind up as usual

Sherifu

lol ntl...

darkskol

Think Torres will be on until half time at least unless he feels he cant continue

LuckyLloyd

FFS, this reffing crew seems to have decided that there will be no contesting the ball in the air

Ignore him he is just a WUM

Raskolnikov

Just get bloody Torres off!

spockety

"RAFA, RAFAEL, RAFA,RAFAEL, RAFA, RAFAEL, RAFAEL BENITEZ"!

Are you listening?

~Rebel~

ref is very whistle happy


And theres some seriously Loud Rafa chanting from the fans, wonder will the lads comment on that?

when the first header was made i don't think he was a mile off and from any angle i've seen i don't see you how you could claim that unless you have some panoramic view

coco06

can we take off torress and put on guti?

Harpy

yeah the ref is very annoying

Fair play to the traveling fans - making themselves heard.

if it was 50:50 then he was onside no?

level = on?

~Rebel~

ok Torres looks really, really off..

it looked 50:50 to me, i didn't see a good angle. But level is on . . .

Raskolnikov

Funny listening to RTE commentary here. You'd swear Liverpool were on top here.

ntlbell

robben on fire

Guy:Incognito

Just as well Robben seems to have a hook for a foot.

i think he always looks a bit lazy and strolls around. but id say maybe he mite last till half time.

PHB

Real Madrid know how to defend against Torres. You drop deep, take his pace away from him, and then tackle well and double up on him when he's running at you.

Headshot

dont understand why torres is still on,big gamble by rafa

Don't think he will be back after the break,

Unless they can work some wonders with him, he doesn't look confident with whatever the problem is with his ankle.

citytillidie

No comment on Robbens diving then Ntlbell and how can you say Torres was off if you think the madrid goal should have stood

coco06

torres must be really struggling coz otherwise benni would have put him into the corner to chase it

benayoun is having a shocker of a game

flanzer

Fcuk Babel coming on for Torres....Gotta be the G-Unit!

what has one got to do with the other?

are you going to ask every time i don't comment on something

what is this?

ntl's minute by minute?

Guy:Incognito

Robben was thinking "yay here comes a peno" there. Touches it in front of himself ready to go down when Carra mkes the challenge. Just as well Carra has a brain.

PHB

It does, but its no surprise that he's scored like once against them in all his games?

whatawaster

Alonso nearly did an Alonso there

darkskol

Alonso shooting from own half

Yah, he's taking the worng decision every time.


Great hit from Alonso there.


WTF ref? bang on 45 mins in the middle of taking a corner?

You mentioned a panoramic view there somewhere,

But you managed to get a great view of the 1st one, but not a great view of the 2nd.

I think that is how they are being compared

~Rebel~

WTF is this fukin ref playing at?!? 3 seconds extra time?!

evil_seed

xabi should have scored :pac:

darkskol

wow 15 secs of extra time

Headshot

i see the ref and rafa are comparing their rolex's :pac:

spockety

Very, very, odd.

Dave!

Rafa had a word with him as he was walking off, I'm sure there'll be upwards of 10 minutes added onto the second half :pac:

exactly?

so i'm not sure of the real goal should of stood but from what i could see it looked on

torres was running back from the box when the keeper kicked it so he HAD to be off side

can't believe i'm even discussing this he didn't score!

If it was Fergie maybe the ref would take notice.
