Soft peno

Hitting the target was the least he could do! Pressure got to him

Was just typical clumsy Pepe for me. He does the obvious thing and pulls out of that challenge and the ball trickles away harmlessly.

Still a penalty. Pepe doesn't get off just because he was stupid and naive.

The camera man has missed a trick not showing crying girl again

Did the cameras catch the post-penalty reaction of the drama queen from earlier?

How so? Torres got between Pepe and the ball and Pepe kicked him in the back of the leg. Torres manufactured it absolutely, doesn't mean it wasn't a stonewall penalty.

CSF

Danilo is super dodgy. There to be gotten at.

No need, there's a crying girl on the field. Well, there was.

We're not talking about incapable though. Nobody is incapable of making a mistake, but when you f*ck up in such a big game, you deserve the criticism. His screwup probably sends the Champions League to the Bernabeu.

I wouldn't really argue with that to be fair. I just don't agree with the sentiments that because it's the biggest club match in the world, you expect the officials to get all the decisions right. Human error should be expected unfortunately, no matter who the official is.

Atletico will never get a better chance then this, madrid look wrecked.

Flint Fredstone

An awful lot of crying creeping into the game lately. It's a bit ott imo.

He bought the peno, but the contact is clear and blatant.

Nonsense, champions league final. He was devastated to be coming off.

Kicks him in the leg. How is it not a foul?

Johner

Ronaldo has been pretty poor.

he fooled pepe, pepe fell for it hook line and sinker and made contact like a headless chicken, its a foul. if you think torres dived then say he dived, instead of this he bought that peno stuff, what did he do pay the ref ?

I dunno, maybe it'll sound bitter because of my allegiances but sometimes sport is just wrong. This Real Madrid side have had a relatively easy route to the final, the total opposite of Atletico's, Atletico's best player then misses a penalty in the final. Sometimes sport is wrong.

Would have been some goal of that volley came off

In fairness, he could also be thinking that he's missing the Euros as well for Spain.

Well then he should have scored then.

Ah well you can't blame him for that, that's down to the assistant.

Fair point

Very poor final so far. Very little intensity, something just is off about it.

Hammer Archer

Nice sly elbow from Pepe there.

The final last year was miles ahead, that juventus team even though they lost were class. Pogba should have had a peno as well if I do recall.

I really am, looking at this Real Madrid side there's no way you can convince me this is the best team in Europe.

rizzodun

Am I wrong to think that if Pepe walked into any country pub in Ireland he'd get nothing but the piss ripped out of him? Every time I watch Real he just annoys me, nothing redeeming from him at all, maybe I don't watch him enough, but he seems like such a gobshite

Tomagotchye

No real energy or intensity to this. Feels like a typical Sunday game.

That_Guy

Ronaldo needs to come off. He's had no impact on this game at all.

NIMAN

They aren't.

Not even the best team in Spain so I'll agree with that.

Kirby

Selfish from Benzema. Should have squared it for a tap in.

Big miss by benzima
Should be doing better imo

Turtyturd

Quickest Ronnie has moved all match.

Andre 3000

Ronaldo has been utter ****

Well they are winning in the final of Europe's biggest club competition. Obviously your Bar-chelsea-yern Munich biases will get in the way so I won't attempt to.

Mantis Toboggan

Ronaldo had looked old tonight

Dirty Dingus McGee

Great to see Rafa Benitez working as a steward in the San Siro.

Kirby

Pepe is just such a cheat its shameful.

Well use your eyes, do you think this is the best team in Europe or do you think this is a team that got lucky with the draw they got in this year's competition because if you think this is the best team in Europe then I'd suggest you watch more European football.
