Champions League

Not the same tbh. Atletico are much better in two legged ties, and without the fans, the games are just not as intense. This new format hurts them.

Contrast with Barca who do well in a training pitch atmosphere

Folk on here were rating Atletico far too highly as some team of mentally strong warriors.

This is in line with pas few years in CL bar that Liverpool tie which they were battered in and were fortunate to go through in.

La Liga is poorest has been for years. Not only the top teams but the league as whole and Barca, Real and Atletico are getting used to playing too many shitty teams.

Last day of season Barca beat a Leganes side that was like a whos who of EPL failures. Teams like that would barely finish in top half of championship.

Not just La Liga. Football as a whole and all the super clubs are playing poorer and poorer and get shitty every year.
There are no future talents like the past in almost every position and no bright managers. There hasn't been any tactical development in football for the past 7-8 years as well. This is the darkest era in football history since 70s.

They've always been weaker when they're not the underdogs. I remember them needing pens to beat Bayer Leverkusen and PSV Eindhoven

They are chokers though, always fall at the last step. They nearly bottled that league title in 2014 but then us and RM bottled it harder

And yes, La Liga has declined massively.

Would be hilarious for City to go out as well, and to have 2 Bundesliga, and 2 Ligue 1 sides in the semis.

 

[Gnidrologist]

How was this deserved? Why would you ever want PSG in the final? Jesus people.

Did you watch the match? Leipzig playing very nice organized football and eye pleasing at that. Crisp one touch passing, creative in attack, solid defensively. Your hope that Atletico would be stronger opponent for QSG non withstanding. And even that is questionable. Atletico played notch above Atalanta tonight and also fuck this dirty team of cheats.

Man, it looks like Leipzig will be the only Bundesliga team in the semis

And if they somehow reach the finals it will be a multi german massacre from us

All farmers gathered together eh

Hahahahhahahha

LOL cute

Now that?s the spirit

 

[eaman]

Deserved to go out. Simeone buys a few quality attacking players like felix and lamar and supposedly they are going to be a more attacking team. Instead he just goes to his usual negative tactics

I agree. I think it might have something to do with kids doing other things than just playing football too.

Agreed. Leipzig was good, dunno why everyone seems to underrate them.

Yeah saw the game and Liepzig was nothing after sixty minutes like I expected. Small team will always run their legs first sixty minutes and Barca. Atletico had it in their hands. It's shame worse team won but what can you do? Shit happens. PSG will lick their lips and make it to final.

 

[Horatio]

So PSG is winning CL?

 

[messi2140]

RBL was the better team. But they were really average going forward , especially the final pass. PSG will have an easier time against RBL than they would have had against Atletico imo.
