After that, we can't really complain about RM's luck.

We've just used their 40 match streak luck in one match .

There's been plenty of situations where we got lucky in previous matches this season. not just tonight...

Yes we were.Very lucky to be in the final after this match.
Atletico had a goal disallowed and missed a pen.

They also scored a goal that shouldn't stand in first game.

And missing penalty is not based on luck imo. I'd say we were more unlucky when Messi hit the post from that FK.

Awfull game, dominated at home... awfull

But you can't say anything about the penalty miss, Atletico miss way more penalties then they score.

These Refs are a complete joke. The level of corruption is so blatant that they may as well officiate the game while wearing RM's team kit. I hope Barça finally get the courage to give Everyone in Spain the middle finger and leave this shitty league with its shitty refs. This club deserves much better than to be treated this way.

What about Griezmann's disallowed goal?

I don't agree that we were helped by the referee. When there are more fouls committed by Barça than by Atletico, you can't say the referee was unbiased. Yes, the disallowed goal was not offside, but the actual goal was offside. Both Red Cards (SR and Suarez) were undeserved. Atletico missed a penalty (a very dubious one) but Messi's freekick was very unlucky. It was a beauty.
Fortunately, Umtiti and Piqué held the fort.
We also learned how important Neymar is for our game. He was missed. Good to have him in the final.

Ref did lean more on Atlético side tbf. but then he did spare Roberto from red in 1st half.
Disallowed goal was on linesman.

Yes, I have to admit that tonight's performance was truly a mediocre one. I hope that we will never ever play so badly again. The only good thing that we can pull from this is that we're in the finals. Lucho really gambled a lot tonight and thank God it payed off. I didn't think that we will park the bus or that we will play THAT defensively. We need to start playing possession football again and have the control over the course of the match. Lucho has to learn from his mistakes and fix them. There is still enough time to change our tactics and to start playing our old tiki taka football again. Visca el Barca!

I think the turning point was Roberto's red card. With Vidal sub him 1 minute earlier and I think we could score
2nd goal. We were in full control of the game between 35 minute to Roberto's red card!

This might sound harsh, and it is said in the heat of the moment, but it needs to be said...pathetic from us, truly pathetic. Excluding the last 10 minutes of the 1st half here, while at the same time emphasizing the last 10 minutes of the whole match. This team doesn't deserve Messi to extend his contract. I can't believe i was kinda hoping for a 2nd Atletico goal and their advancement, because now this game will quickly be forgotten...and it shouldn't be. It really shouldn't be. This was embarassing, in the last 5 minutes we looked like Osasuna or Leganes defending a point against the mighty Atletico...that's how far we've come.

This is truly one of the lowest points i've seen this club to be in terms of game style in the last 17 years that i've been a Cule for. And they said anyone could coach Barca...yeah sure. We've come from dominating every team in the world and winning Bayern 4-0 and Atletico 5-0 to practically parking the bus against a team, who's more known for its defensive qualities than attacking, all this in less than 5 years.

I'm seriously wondering just how long Camp Nou will endure these shameful performances, maybe it's time to stop giving the majority of tickets to tourists, stop treating Camp Nou as an NBA venue...and start letting true Cules in the stadium, even Ultras. In that case i imagine we'd have white robes displayed by the 2nd or 3rd game, which is the only right thing to do right now. And not just for Lucho, but for Fartomeu as well.
