I turned to my mate in Gothenburg when Hewitt scored and said "this is it, this is the pinnacle, it will never top this".

 

Really?  Not when the final whistle went, because that was the pinnacle - the moment we'd actually won the game.  And, by the way, most of us were going berserk when Hewitt scored but you decided to be very philosophical and calm and spoil your mate's enjoyment.

Ajax leading 1-0 against spurs

Ajax leading 1-0 against spurs 

 

Could've and should've been a much wider margin of victory. Spurs second best for most of the game. Hope Ajax can finish the job next week.

 

Commentators seemed to be in a constant state of shock last night. Either they've not been watching Ajax in the Champions League this season or they actually believed that an EPL team would be immune to the hidings that Juve and Real got.

Or they can't see that Spurs aren't that good, have overachieved by getting to the semis and without Son and Kane were never going to be strong enough to get through. I think their manager is a boring bastard too.

 

Barcelona tonight are an incredible value at almost even money.

But he reeled off a line from Toy Story! (which got the media fully erect. )  As it turned out they barely got beyond the half way line.

 

 

[manc_don]

:smile:would be overjoyed if they won the whole thing. Two fingers up to the big money spenders and proof a good youth policy can provide dividends.

[donsdaft]

I wouldn't normally support Barcelona.

 

I'll make an exception tonight though.

Yass

 

Another English team bites the dust

 

Ajax have a real chance of winning this

FFS 2 minutes to go, leading 1-0 and that thug arsehole McGregor gets himself sent off for yet another kick out at a player. Sevco have made all their subs.....Ryhun taking over the 'keeper's jersey 

 

Ref has given a free-kick just outside the box but could easily have given a penalty for it

 

 

EDIT....they changed their mind and put McCrorie in goals instead

 

[Ten Caat]

They held on. 4th guaranteed....

Vinnie Kompany's a jammy cunt.

Was a sublime strike.

 

Bin dippers doing a decent job in the second leg of the champs league semi though.  Saved by a cloggy

It was a great goal. But it's still filed under a fluke because if he tries that again another 100 times he's nae scoring once. But he scored in the one that counts. Fair play to City. To win the league this season where second place is achieving 94 points (and possibly 95 or 97) is unprecedented. Although it would've been as miraculous as Leicester's league win if they'd done it whilst living within their means financially.  (Sorry SeeBass. Cheap shot!  )

FFS Ajax.  Should have had that nailed.

Aye. Gutted for them because they were the best team by far for three quarters of the tie. And even in the second half last night where Tottenham managed to play some football Ajax still hit the post once or twice.

 

The Champions League has had it's critics but fucking hell it's been something else this season.

 

The final will be 0-0 after 120 minutes.

Bloody hope not. Committed to watching it with a Liverpool supporting mate. Bloody early wake up for a poor game.

I watched the 2006 Final in the pub before an 8hr shift

 

Can't say I'm surprised to hear a Mac student struggling to handle the Kiwi Football lifestyle

Haha! I'm getting too old for this stuff.  Even resorted to watching the A-league regularly.

Good luck to you both. After a tough season of results across the domestic and international fixtures I was looking forward to a CL final where I just wanted the team who played better on the night to win and enjoy it. That's fucked now.

[Ten Caat]

Killie go 1 up against Hibs. Bastards...

[Ten Caat]

Pundits saying the penalty that Killie scored from was definitely not a penalty and had we had VAR the decision would have been reversed. Of course they noted that we are the big losers because of this apparently dreadful decision

[Ten Caat]

Killie held on. Now need sevco to do us a favour next week and get a result ourselves at Easter Road 

[DantheDon]

I would think Rangers will give them a tougher game. I'm more worried about if we can do the business at Easter road.

[manc_don]

Not ideal having to rely on someone else for us to get the desired result. But we've only ourselves to blame courtesy of that horrific home form.
