CL Final

Post by Nice One Cyril »

Pretty good game with some fine goals and the right result, despite some truly pathetic refereeing.

simulating to get a penalty as opposed to simulating to get a fellow professional sent off.....is there a difference?????

The Red card went to the wrong player, certainly a candidate for the 'Worst Refereeing Decision of the Season'.

i usually dont have sympathy for Italian teams as the masters of the dark arts in defending/agitating/time wasting feigning etc but....with the refs assistant right there it makes you think whether or not all was fair....(not that Real needed the Refs help)

not an avid watcher of Serie A on TV, but stereotypically, that was the most un-Juventus display Ive ever seen

Different game in Serie A where they are totally dominant.

They pretty much parked the bus against Real, gave up a goal and were forced to come out and attack then, as soon as they equalised, went back to parking the bus. I thought they looked quite good going forward for that short time and wonder why they don't do it more often, it must be a cultural thing in Italian football, the fear of conceding.

no....the exact opposite......they were very open and attack minded....one of the best starts to a final Ive ever seen.

For about 5-10 minutes.
