CL Semi Final: Inter - Barca 4-3

[serghei]

Out of 3 very close and crucial VAR-situations (our pen, theirs and the foul on Martin), all 3 were given to Inter... that's some fucking bullshit! Yeah I'm still pissed, pissed af!

Take comfort in the fact that Inigo could have been sent off for spitting an opponent, or so I've heard. It's at least a 2nd yellow card offense if not straight red. It helped ease things off for me regarding the referees. Much easier to take the loss if it's our own doing.

Thank you.
I also understand if some of you will support PSG in the final, it is only human.
I would also have found it hard to support Barcelona if we had lost ... it's understandable.

I don't know what PSG will do, or how strong they are. I feel like Barcelona is more talented than PSG, but PSG has maybe a better defence.

We know Kvara well because we played against him often in Italy, and he doesn't worry me like Yamal.
Yamal was the player that scared me the most since I ever started watching football. The pitch is like an ice ring for him, where he elegantly skates and that's ridiculously over-powered. The speed of his shooting-execution is insane too.

QSG have a balanced team, we don't.

Also they don't look silly with defenders zig zagging opposite direction every time opponent passes to their front line. Lucho doesn't do any gimmicks, he's really grown as a coach.

Draw at home was the first mistake of these matches. Then giving 2 goals away then going to extra time then giving fourth goal.
How many of these players have already played a semi ? Lewa, De Jong that's it. De Jong was with Ajax the same year we get smashed by Liverpool.

so you're saying players are only in phase one

If you can't see that you don't need to be looking for a 2nd goal with 2 minutes left and leave yourself exposed at the back.

Then I don't know what to do with that.

0 clue.

I literally said exactly that. You okay, bud? You seem to be the one lacking a clue, more so lately.

It's almost impossible to get through a CL semi after TWICE being down 2 0. The fact that we almost pulled it off is a testament to the never say die approach we have.
The lack of concentration and being down 2 0 is what killed us. It was always going to be hard to win at San Siro.
Both full backs and main CF were out. It wasn't meant to be. Also this team needs serious regeneration. Xavi brought in a whole bunch of players and was willing to throw them under the bus after two seasons. Flick has had to make the best of what he's been dealt with.
In the past that 2 nil lead would have become a 4 nil lead cause our heads would drop.
Modern football is a SQUAD game. If the depth isn't there you will suffer due to injuries and fatigue. Bottom line is we need at least three new players

I don't know what will happen next season. I feel like it is too simplistic to assume we will learn and do better. The opposite could happen. We might not be able to repeat this level of football next season and the drop in form could continue. That's why this loss is painful. We have been trying to get into a final for 10 years, and always something happens.

This basically. Football is too unpredictable and is game of small margins, that's why this was a golden opportunity and it might not come again soon. Combine with the fact that Barca has not won UCL in 10 years, this was painful enough to the point that I'm unmoved at yesterday's win against Madrid.
