Real given a pen early, wonder who takes it with Ramos out.

Probably Benz

*nope Hazard

Making Conte’s 3-5-2 look funny style. #TrabajoFacil

Anthony Taylor just gave 2 yellows to Vidal for protesting for a pen

Looked close to what got called for Real earlier so I get the protest, still wild how fast he got the 2 yellows in immediate succession though unless he was cursing him out or something

 

[Coupé It]

I see Florentino sent those bags of cash to the UEFA refs....

ENGLISH REFS SHOULD STOP BEING CALLED

 

[MetalMario]

Vidal red card for arguing for the PK plea. Two yellows

 

[champcruthik]

Check cleared.

RIP to the Goat

That was silly by Vidal. Wasn't even a pen too.

 

[Coupé It]

That was silly by Vidal. Wasn't even a pen too.

But did he deserve two yellow cards back to back within 5 seconds? HELL NO

Poignant moments of silence before each of the late CL matches

Real - Inter

One of the greatest to ever play the game. A truly sad day.

Such a damn legend man. How he put mediocre teams on his back to win trophies is insane. Those Napoli and Argentina teams weren’t great but Diego literally carried them to glory.

My pops has always said what Maradona did, no other football player will come close. He loved Maradona so much.

Plus that game against England, hand of god and the best goal ever scored minutes apart. Maradona willed the team and the country - put it on his back.

England and Argentina had just been a war in the falklands couple years before and the tensions were ridiculous.

RIP KING

The man put the national team on his back for that 1986 World Cup. For me, that is why he was better than Pele. Pele played with some of the greatest players Brazil has ever had.

But did he deserve two yellow cards back to back within 5 seconds? HELL NO

Was it harsh? Yeah. But you just received a yellow for arguing... something that won't change the result... continuing to do so, you're putting yourself at risk.

Rodrygo gets the 2nd less than a minute after coming on

Great ball in from Spanish Lingz

 

[El Argentino]

Ufff! Rodrygo w/ the cleanest of volleys there.

 

[Sinner]

Just rewatched that Vidal bit and he actually made contact/bumped into the ref. Just can't be doing that, despite how light the contact was.

 

[Coupé It]

This group had me nervous when it first came out but Porto has done VERY WELL!!!

Marseille with 0 points, wow

 

[Canadian Destroyer]

This guy Maradona really partied himself to death?

 

[Bantz Lord T]

As a man, Diego left a lot to be desired. As a footballer, however, no one did it better.


RIP Diego Armando Maradona

 

[Bantz Lord T]

Damn man Don Diego too

Not a good day for me personally, just found out my cousin passed away

My condolences

 

[Coupé It]

My pops is a wreck, he’s the same age as Maradona. He was a Maradona super fan, everybody was rooting for Diego in the 80’s except for Brazil and England. He loved Maradona and Platini, those were his guys.

This is like Kobe dying to me, I told him I know exactly how he feels.

 

[Retroballer]

Time for some Europa tomorrow.
