Seriously? You're at the game, and you're messaging the forum every few mins?? WTF

He only does it when nothing is going on. I guess that's most of the time in this match

OG strikes!!!

Pinball

Quazzie

Still only one shot on target is it?

greendom

Fortunate but the improved intensity and pressing has made it possible.

Skylinehead

What a finish :pac:

Giroud's blocked shot not count?

tayto lover

OG scores again. We'll take it :D

I dunno tbh. I would've thought no because it never made it to the keeper. I could be wrong though.

I get the point anyway. Still an improved performance from the first half

greendom

PSG responding now

Quazzie

Cavani should've been booked for simulation there surely.

Pathetic dive!

MonsterCookie

More goals in this game. Not won yet.

Agree, like the Mayo GAA, and the Chicago Cubs etc etc. BUT... We are ****e every November!

Coincidence it happens in November. We chronically fail because we walk around the field and make it easy for the opposition to play against us.

Fair play to Giroud though. For all the stick he has taken he puts himself about and shows up at least. if he played on that invincibles team he'd be remembered fondly because he'd get on loads of the chances we created.

Ramsey and Iwobi off pls

mansize

Xhaka coming on

Skylinehead

Nobody is picking up Meunier, Iwobi needs to do his job.

EDIT: Sanchez on that wing now, but still, track the man

Ramsey is trying but Iwobi is absolutely stink

Iwobi coming off

Quazzie

Ramsey so close there. Giroud is having a decent game.

jamescd

Cavani lucky not to be sent off? They showed a replay from a different angle and it shows he caught Ramsey on the cheek when he lashed out in the 1st half. Could have been at least a yellow if the ref spotted that.

Then another yellow for that terrible dive.

He's gone to Chamberlain town via Gibbsville. Next stop Wilshere

mansize

That was coming

greendom

free header - he didnt even have to jump

Nightmare. Ospina had it covered until Iwobi intervened.

wonga77

half arsed from Iwobi

Jesus Iwobi

tayto lover

Shocking defending.

KaiserGunner

Ah that's diabolical defending all over, too easy ffs.

keano_afc

We were lucky that was only Cavani. Brainless from Iwobi. What was he trying to do?

tayto lover

Doesn't matter about this game lads as we're going nowhere in this anyway. Out in first knockout round.
Imagine what Real or Barca would do to us.

wonga77

Cavani is absolute poop

I'm glad their best chances have fallen to him. He's dogs*it.

Would love to know how many misses Cavani has over the two legs.

Quazzie

I wonder how bad the French league is that PSG create enough chances for Cavani to score as much as he does.

Has to be in double digits, thank f*ck!

We're doing are best to lose here it would seem. Been poor again tonight. Hope we somehow manage to get a jammy win.

Does it go to away goals or goal difference assuming we draw and both teams win the last leg?

Edit: Just mentioned it there. Away goals!

Goals scored. PSG top as they score 2 in the away fixture. Leaving us clear to draw Barca

Away goals between both teams, so we finish 2nd.

Only plus is we might avoid Bayern. Can't believe they lost to Rostov earlier! But yes finishing 2nd after taking a commanding lead has been our bread and butter in the Champions league for far too long now :mad:

omega man

Second place then. All too predictable sadly.

liam7831

wasters

Can't really complain, they were better over the two legs.

greendom

over the 2 games PSG were much the better team and deserve to top the group

wonga77

1 shot on target I think? A penalty and a poxy OG for our efforts. Our lack of creativity is most worrying

tayto lover

PSG are a far better team than us. Cavani should have had 4.
Yet another awful performance from us.
We'll not be in this competition much longer.

I'd rather Bayern than Athletico tbh. Neither club have been fantastic this season though.

Don't understand why the players weren't really going for it at the end. Very unlikely PSG aren't getting anything other than a win against Ludogourets.

jamescd

Absolute disaster. We could have done with a scoreless draw, but we just had to let them score. Then we go 2 - 1 up and just need to hold on, but let them score again. Not good enough.

Gut feeling telling me it's gonna be Barca again.

KaiserGunner

My stream kept cutting out, but from what I saw PSG were the better side over the two matches. I'm just worried about the performance. Poor defensively and poor going forward too. We are on a bad run of form, so the positive that can be taken is that at least they haven't lost during this patchy run.
