I barely watch anymore except the wrap around show we have here in the USA/ Goes from game to game. I used to watch a lot of the big teams play but besides Celtic and giving some attention to the Italian teams it just drags now.
Big decision to give that penalty against Atalanta. I take it the ref sees it as a professional foul, he might be right, why have your arm so high unless its a sneaky professional foul or your losing the race to the ball. The Brugge player made a meal of it though.
The ref actually was alright until that ridiculous decision and I agree with the sentiments of Gasperini's post match comments.......Football ain't what it used to be, it's far worse. The atmosphere though was sensational.
Meanwhile, over in Rotterdam, it's chucking down a la the CWC in 1991 but what a mistake by Maignan. Great backing from the home support as well unfortunately.
Not a bad performance from the Bhoys. It would have been nice to get at least a draw, but I am a realist. Could even 1 of the Bhoys even start for Bayern?
I don't think Juve's or Milan's cause was helped by some bizarre substitutions by their respective managers. I'm still scratching my head at the farce they caused!
That's a tough penalty decision on Atleti. Did the guy touch it with the left foot when slipping? A retake seems a fairer choice in those cases going forward but if he kicked it twice then that's that.
