Liverpool FC V Real Madrid, Champions League Final: 7.45pm Sat 26th May 2018

[Steel Icarus]

Good goal but not the best I've ever seen, not by a long chalk.

 

[Steel Icarus]

Maybe the second best individual goal there's been in a major final, I'll give it that.

 

[TruXta]

Good goal but not the best I've ever seen, not by a long chalk.

I guess it's partly down to the timing. Best goal ever, hell no. Best ever goal in a final? Hmmmmmmmmm

 

[Wilf]

Certainly the least gracious post victory interview I've heard in a while.

 

[The39thStep]

Thought Liverpools game plan with Salah was bold enough to give it a go and without Salah very commendable. The Salah injury and the keepers two errors were unfortunatly both unplanned and simply too much on the night.

Certainly the least gracious post victory interview I've heard in a while.

Was Mourinho on again?

 

[Wilf]

Was Mourinho on again?

Dunno, I'll let you know when he gets a victory.

It was better than Zidane's, which is the only other candidate in terms of European Cup final goals.

Of course neither are as good as Gary Alexander's goal for Millwall in the 2009 Division 1 playoff final, which is the best goal scored in any final that occured on or near Europe:

First half was a waste of time. Could have been extra time etc if not for the goalkeeping errors but Bale's goal was phenomenal. And only just off the bench. Suppose they deserved it in the end.

 

[magneze]

Bale amazing but Karius comical.

 

[sealion]

I'm not pissed off. I'm delighted. Liverpool are the original glory-hunting team. I support a small (pissy?) club they've fucked over. They've got stuffed. Good. Ha ha!

What a load of bollox.A small pissy feeder club, who up to recently done well from selling on talent.

I was there and watched it fly in, stunning goal!

This match report has it that Ramos deliberately judo'd Salah's arm.
Real Madrid win Champions League as brilliant Bale sinks Liverpool
From the last time I saw it, I tend to agree.

[Ted Striker]

I must say, if it wasn't the best goal, certainly one of the best manager reactions. Bloody live ZZ

 

[Steel Icarus]

My fave player ever, Zizou

Posted this in the wrong thread...

 

[Favelado]

ah well. i feel okay.

 

[Kaka Tim]

fucking disgusting by ramos - really cynical - doing that in a way where its pretty difficult for the ref prove intent - but blatantly a deliberate taking out of Salah - and leaving his participation in the world cup in doubt. what a cunt.

 

[BCBlues]

Yeah cos he's such a gracious and honest player ain't he.
And what happened to game changer James Milner? First time I saw him he was being subbed.

I hate it whenever I see it and from whomever I see it. If I see it from England at the world cup, I'll be hoping it is seen by the ref and the player gets a yellow for it at least. I'd hand a straight red for cheating like that, plus hefty bans. I'd use video evidence to give bans retrospectively for it.

Too many supporters turn a blind eye to their own players being cheating cunts. When Drogba did it, did you shout at him for it? I hope you did.

Not Drogba no but maybe yeah when Luiz winked his eye at us yeah
I agree tbh it's a horrible part of modern football but Liverpools fans need to accept this too. and also the fact that Bale destroyed them.
I'm not on about Salahs injury tonight neither, that is massively unfortunate for him as a player, he's great to watch, but the Ramos incidents have to be put into context.

 

[pocketscience]

Absolutely. The Maldini of our times in terms sheer presence. Fucking despise the guy, but you can't argue with his talent and record.

Don't besmirch the fine reputation of Maldini, a true gent. Ramos is a cunt of the finest order.

 

[agricola]

He (Ramos) is an arch-cunt in a position that almost demands cuntishness, but Maldini had that in his locker as well.

 

[dessiato]

It was a good game to watch here in Spain.

 

[mwgdrwg]

Bitter gobshites lol lol lol

Now that's bitter. You a Utd fan or something?

After watching various compilations of Ramos's sendings-off on YouTube any doubt that there wasn't intent involved, or he didn't give a shit about the outcome has gone.. still professional football..always been like it..

 

[Lord Camomile]

And what happened to game changer James Milner? First time I saw him he was being subbed.

Took the corner that led to the goal, and created a couple of other chances too. Probably did some work at the back, too.

Maybe not his most influential game, but as ever, he put in a shift.

Liverpool fans classless as ever! Hope they are hunted down and banned.
