    AND HE ADDED NO TIME????

    WORST REF EVER, 10 MINUTE DELAY, ADDS TEN SECONDS

    No one does 'pissed off' like the Italians. Those hand gestures are on another level.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,614 ✭✭✭The Golden Miller


    You just know that Juventus are going to be rode, probably get a man harshly sent off.

    Some call

    The penalty was given with 18 seconds of added time left

    Ronaldo going around as if he is some sort of hero. He scored from 12 yards after his team got hammered for the whole game. That's him all over tho. All about the show.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,248 ✭✭✭✭BoJack Horseman


    Madrid is one of those clubs where I genuinely cannot think of one single thing I like about them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,037 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    Great pen.

    Hate to say it, but ref was right on both counts. Absolutely clear penalty, and Buffon made it very easy to send him off too.

    Should have been another few minutes extra time though.

    UEFA pull it off. Got a message to the ref: “one of the big two must remain in the competition”.

    strangely disappointed for a game I dont really care about


  • Posts: 0 Esme Spoiled Cane


    Can't believe some lads think that wasn't a penalty

    He was clumsy as ****, you cannot do that from behind in the penalty area

    That was some peno under all that pressure and waiting

    Big game Ronaldo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,495 ✭✭✭✭bucketybuck


    You'll hear some emotional bull**** about that finish but that was a stonewall penalty and a stonewall red card. Could have been more cards in fact, you can mob the ref but not to that extent.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,438 ✭✭✭j8wk2feszrnpao


    Not sure why people are saying abut the ref.
    It’s about to be headed in, and the defender barged into his back. It’s a pen.
    Buffon deserves red for his reaction.

    Sad for it to finish for him that way.

    This is the patronising sh*te I hate. If it was Ramos people wouldn't care less.

    It was a red card.

    Extremely sad, yes a legend but he doesn't get a bye for being a nice guy

    Bull****. You don't get a free pass for abusing a ref. He was screaming at him. An offence is an offence, regardless of who commits it. You don't even know what he said to the ref.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,775 ✭✭✭✭Gbear


    Anywhere else in the pitch that's a foul without any question.

    He almost certainly puts it away if Benatia doesn't bump into him.

    Incredibly unlucky but they didn't defend the situation well enough.

    You're all over the shop

    The penalty was awarded with one minute of added time left.

    A five minute delay does not mean that you add another five minutes of added playing time!

    :/

    It was at 2.40 of the 3 mins when the foul occurred, he played those 20 seconds from the tip off..

    Or and it’s a small OR he converted a penalty in a game where his team had been battered all game and the pressure to do that. 12 yards lol.

    Strange ending.

    Feel bad for Juve, they played so well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,120 ✭✭✭justshane


    I think Pjanic was the best player on the pitch.

    Probably cause he got about 30 red cards in his career

    There was only 20 seconds left of injury time when penalty was awarded.


  • Registered Users Posts: 540 ✭✭✭Solomon Pleasant


    Papa Perez, Real Madrid and Co. have bought the CL as has become customary every single bloody year.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Rezident


    Looked like a dive, well it is the champion's league so it is decided by diving and cheating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,017 ✭✭✭sReq | uTeK


    It will all come out in a few years about the matches Perez has bought for Real.

    hahahaha honestly do you people watch the same games or just crewate them as figments of your imagination


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    You give a legend some slack, any man would, this child ref is an idiot.

    And then what happens if he saves the peno when any other keeper would have been sent off?

    If it's the other way around and he gives leeway to madrid half the forum would call him a cheat.

    Buffon shoild know better .


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,609 ✭✭✭TheCitizen


    That’s a sickener.

    There was under a minute left of stoppage time when the foul happened, he played a minute after the penalty was taken.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 3,814 ✭✭✭irishman86


    Thats a defo penalty, no idea what some are talking about
    The greatest player comes up with the goods once again


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,614 ✭✭✭The Golden Miller


    Juve have been hugely unfortunate over the years in this tournament, two titles is a poor return for the teams they've had. One the other side, Madrid have been hugely fortunate for the past couple of years


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,798 ✭✭✭✭DrumSteve


    Is it not a minimum of three minutes of added time rather than a maximum?

    Madrid are a club a lot of fans find it easy to dislike.
    There are many reasons why and I really hope they get knocked out in the semi or lose to a last minute disputed penalty in the final.

    I don't care who you are, there must have been some pressure on that kick and yet he buried it. Fair play to him.


  • Registered Users Posts: 607 ✭✭✭Pete Moss


    Credit where it's due, it was a great penalty from Harry Kane to win it

    There is **** all contact in that. Not surprised the ref gave it though, it looked worse than it was.

    I said it at home with about 15 minutes left that Real were going to get a penalty. If ever you want a soft penalty awarded, get an English ref.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,017 ✭✭✭sReq | uTeK


    plain and simple,Messi wouldn’t have taken it and if he did he would have missed

    Hail CR7


  • Registered Users Posts: 686 ✭✭✭Flincher


    There's no conspiracy here. Stonewall penalty. Oliver was well with his rights to send Buffon off. There was less than a minute left in added time and there was a minute added.

    Gutted for Juve and Buffon but the ref got the big calls right.

    Sorry are people now questioning if it was a pen? Benatia pushed Vazquez in the back, and he missed the ball when he swung his left foot at it and caught Vazquez with that action as well. Surprised Benatia escaped a second yellow as well.
