UEFA Champions League 20/21

[StanSP]

Decent from Giroud, that.

[Super_horns]

Over turned.

Right decision.

Great goal .

[Fox92]

Fantastic goal.

[Bats8711]

so - can we talk about why that took so long to overturn?  I mean, they showed ONE replay at the very beginning of that, and I was like - looks like a goal.  I really would love to know what they're talking about and the replays they're reviewing

[RowlattsFox]

Looked to me like the Chelsea player touched it  but they never slowed it down enough to get a close look.

 

If it then hits the Madrid player does that make him onside..

Fantastic finish, not seen a replay, assume it was the defender who played the ball 

[Manini]

Giroud is quality 

[bovril]

It's not clear and obvious in my opinion. If it takes that long keep the decision as it is on the pitch

[HybridFox]

Watch how about 2 minutes are added

They had to work out if the defender deliberately played the ball or if it came off Mount and then got deflected.

It's rubbish we didn't see the replays and only saw it after the decision but to me it looked like the correct one eventually. Hermoso made a play for the ball and I don't think it touched the Chelsea player.

I haven't seen any conclusive evidence yet that the call on the field was wrong but I guess we'll see after the game. 

[bovril]

OK that's conclusive

 

But why does it always take so long? 

[Corky]

Playing these games in neutral stadiums is ridiculous. What sort of home advantage do teams get?

[casablancas]

Have Atleti been this poor all game? Late tuning in.

Chelsea were excellent to be fair. Perfect away performance in Europe.

Southgate will be calling him up to get him tied to England.

Yup... shame for England but fully understand the reasons behind it. Good luck to him.

That is absolutely never a red card.

Standard Real Madrid.

Not sure about Pep's coat. The Man City badge on the back looks a bit naff.

The Atalanta manager looks like Richard Gere
