ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

[davek]

Chelsea went to the Bernabeu last season and were three up. Yes Madrid came back mainly thanks to probably the best assist I’ve ever seen from Modric but it shows that this tie isn’t over no matter how enjoyable last night was.

The change to no away goal advantage makes that comeback a possibility...a very slim possibility though.

The gulf in class in the second half was Grand Canyon proportions. The old joke about throwing another ball on the pitch for Liverpool to play with applied.

And Ancelotti is the one manager who doesn't need reminding that they can come back from a 3 goals deficit.

This is over.

But I thought it was next to impossible to get tickets ? Always a sell out ?

A true statistic phenomenon created by Virgin’s for Virgins.

Ooooh we should have scored 0.53 goals, take that!

Can’t believe it gets the attention it does.

I don’t even understand it. How is it relevant? Who TF cares?

The most important stat of the night is that they never killed anyone.

Yet... remember that time they had a team over from Madrid when it was a hot spot for covid and spread it throughout the South of England when their customers went home?

All jokes aside the difference in the class in that second half was astonishing, Madrid are just a far better team then they are. This is what happens you don't play Europa League quality teams in the knockout stages like they normally get.

HALA MADRID

A class act as ever

Van Dijk has never been the same since Pickford raped him.

I knew about the tackle that ruined his knee, but this is new.... tell us more.

I won’t feel completely comfortable until Real are at least a couple of goals up in the second leg. I can almost smell the ‘Miracle of Madrid’ headlines already. Carlo needs to have his team on it from the start as you n be certain the RS will fly out of the traps early on.

They have some weird voodoo stuff going on in this competition. Real need to nip any possibility of a comeback in the bud

Yeah you just want a completely boring game of fouls and timewasting. Will be interesting to see how seriously Klopp takes it or whether he’ll start prioritising their PL game.

At least Liverpool are starting to get a complex about Madrid anyway. They’ve not had a bogey team for so long but Madrid are really starting to get the mental edge over Klopp and this Liverpool team and as we know all too well that sort of stuff lasts a long time.

Every time Madrid beat them it chips says at their European myth and instead builds a new one of how Madrid don’t get beaten by Liverpool in big games

This comp is a lot harder when you can’t just play Portuguese europa league teams in every round upto the final.

 

[Abertonian]

LOL at Micah Richards not watching the game for either of the first two goals until he hears the commotion. Stealing a living.

Talks utter nonsense as well.

Kept the xM* down which is good.

*expected murders

We are in peak end-of-dayz dortmund klopp mode right now.

The inane grinning on the touch line, as his team are completely outclassed and dismantled; the snappy little classless digs and quips that slip from him to the press when he’s under pressure - his classic tells.

They will be overdosing on the kloppozade right now to sort themselves in the league and hopefully pull something out of the bag in Madrid.

“But heeeesss had no moneyyyy der laaaaaa, those FSG biffs are havin ussss offff maaaaattttteeeeee!”
