Genuinely been 3 minutes of vintage Harry Kane bum sucking since he scored, f’me. 

 

Good finish though, people won’t dare to admit it on here but Spurs have been quality across both legs in this tie. No bottling ere.

think this coming back from an offside is wrong, the defence has to concentrate both forwards and behind them, even though there’s a player in an offside position.

He's not offside when the ball is played though. 

It's fine.

I'd say its overboard to say they've been "quality" tonight. They've just parked the bus. 

 

It's also worth noting that Dortmund had a huge number of injuries in the first leg and their form has collapsed in the last five or so weeks. 

 

I don't mean to disparage Tottenham, as much as I clearly don't like them, I'll happily give credit where its due. But I think if Dortmund play both legs with the team they have out tonight (plus maybe Delaney) then they probably win overall.

Take your point re the first leg, but they played what’s in front of them and won at a canter. Did what was asked of them and did it well. 

 

Any other British team does what they have tonight and it would be “what a brilliant away performance in Europe” and to be honest that’s exactly what it is. Atletico have made a living off of stuff like this in the CL. It isn’t done yet they might lose 5-4 yet but I’ve been impressed with them they’ve showed a bit of grit when it mattered.

I don't especially disagree with any of that other than, like I said, I'm not sure I'd necessarily call their performance "quality" more just routine. They've done what they needed to.

Ajax! Take note Dortmund, this is how you finish.

I realise that, but he has come back to get himself just onside as the pass is made which, for the defender, means he needs to be looking in both directions at the same time.

How do you prevent that?

They're 4-0 up on aggregate against the supposed best team in Germany.

 

Fair play to them. 

 

Let's be fair, Bayern are still the best team in Germany and will win the league. Probably still by about 5/6 points. 

 

Dortmund lost to Augsburg the other night pretty comfortably. Their form has gone very, well, Spursy tbh lately. 

 

Back to the Ajax game, I think the commentators are getting way too excited tbh, surely the ref is disallowing this.
