Townsend "You have to admire how Real got back in the game"

markie29

Think someone will have to keep Ferguson from going onto the pitch to confront the Ref...i bet he is seething right about now.

Lord TSC

FFS now Lopez learns to play.

Professey Chin

Lopez after saving madrid a few times

markie29

shows how much Townsend and Lawrenson know about football when they say sh1t about the Madrid keeper.

top class saves all night

greenman09

Didn't deserve a red.yellow at most. Ref ruined this game and utd were the better team til that decision. Those saying straight red should wind yer neck in.

CSF

I thought the Nani one could have gone either way, not a blatant red but wouldn't call it a terrible decision either. High foot, studs in, but not that much force at all. Could go either way.

klose

Lopez has made a few great saves tonight

In the words of Whitney Hueston re the Red Card
"Its not right, but its OK"

That was a pen.

Watched on youtube, its very dangerous play and studs up with both feet off the ground. Can see why it was given, wouldnt neccesarily agree but can see why. Intent doesnt have to be there.

Also for those blaming the ref, maybe Welbeck should kick the ball into to Goal from three yards out, big turning point. People make mistakes

Impressed with United since going down, its a shame they sat back so much after the red

Lol, it's getting better and better.

I don't like to see people gleefully posting rubbish when a team is down.
We had plenty of that on the Arsenal Forum last Sunday too.
It shows a lack of success for the teams followed by the these people that they have to slag.

I'd give you very narrow odds Fergie makes himself and his club look like an a*se.

Fuzzy_Dunlop

Good saves from both keepers in the last few minutes.

Except you said "an hours extra time".

I meant injury time.

But An hour i meant.

As in Man Utd always get a ton of injury time even when there has been no injurys.

FFS everyone knows that.

And a professional referee.

ITV worried no British teams in the quarter final. Two German teams in the final for me.

(Is that possible with the draw?)

Yes draw next week is an open draw all the way to the final

Ramos is pure sh!te! He will cost Madrid the Champions League yet.

This threadspoiling is way out of hand, and not just here when opposition fans come on and spout crap which inspires more crap, etc. People doing the messing here will be complaining again when the shoe is on the other foot, and some of those complaining here have previously done similar or will in the future. I'm guessing there will be about 6/7 bans handed out for crap in this thread alone and it'll probably be locked before tomorrow morning I'd guess.

It wouldn't take a rocket surgeon to work out my feelings about the game tonight, but I have been able to refrain from expressing them in here when feelings are running high, I wish others could have done the same and continue to do so.

Reminds me of the Diego Lopez for a couple of seasons at Villarreal. Antics sure, but he's been excellent.

Leiva

Peno all day

Rayne Wooney

iirc this was a yellow card?

The more I watch the red card decision, the more sure I am the the ref made the right decision.
Will be interesting to see fergies post match interview.

I think Fergie will agree its a red........

aramush

Madrid keeper on fire. Deserved MOTM, if not, Varane, great player.

Deflected shot gets saved and Lawro reckons he gave the keeper the eyes, genuine shot gets saved and he says it was a cross, amazing to be so wrong.

He will of course,but what he will say will most likely be the truth

Francie Barrett

People complaining about Lawro should be they aren't listening to Niall Quinn.

Nailz

I certainly hope, for the referees' sake, that the security resources that are available to him whilst he is in Manchester is in abundance, because he'll ****ing well need it.

bluefinger

those corners must be demoralising for the players.

Fuck off efb

0-5-10

On the scale where 0 is no card 5 is a yellow and 10 is red, that tackle was a 7.

Defo yellow, red maybe. Im Europe its more likely to be Red.

Could you imagine a Tony Pulis side in the UCL

Anyone

Good win for Mourninho. Proves once & for all that he's the best!

Yes and everyone condemned it as ridiculous.

Cheers.

markie29

Dont think Rio should have clapped his hands like that in front of the refs face...looks pathetic to be honest.

ThunbergsAreGo

people saying yellow at most it was a DEFINITE yellow

Studs up off the ground no control

Unlucky tonight

Ferdinand clapping into the refs face!

Barr

Great win for Madrid

Professional Griefer

**** it.

We did well, looked like we would have continued that until Nani went off. Bull**** call, absolute bull****, nothing we can do now though.

Aidric

I can't fault Utd in any way. I thought they played excellent tonight but they have been mugged off by an inept Turk.

A lot of shíte gets said about a refs influence in the outcome of a game but this guy truly wrecked the tie.

I think Real will go on to win it now.

Francie Barrett

We wuz robbed.

CptMackey

Hope the ref has a flight booked straight after the game or he will be hung

Ended shaking his hand, probably realised he went OTT.

hahaha, I am loving this. Finally United know what its like to be on the end of injustice.

Or justice, as it is known to some observers tonight.
