Nah, it's over. Puts some of the Carlo hype to rest, though.
Atletico - Leicester was pretty boring. Leicester unlucky as it shouldn't have been a penalty, but they are at least still in it.
They probably will if they are allowed to play with 12 players.
With Lewa we should have scored 2-3 more in the first half. in the second half we are lucky that it's only 1:2, could have been 1:5 easily since Javi (and Alonso) were off.
Müller is such a nothing player for more than a year now. Kreisliga-Niveau, at max.

Decima means tenth. They're gunning after the twelfth.
Ancelotti was definitely not at fault for our entire squad losing it after the missed pen. We've been playing very well for 35 of the first 45 minutes.
Eh...
I feel Real should have done more and put this one to bed. Given Bayern looked mentally and physically drained after the red, it was a very good chance to hit them for more than those two goals. This tie is far from over.
Surprised by the gap of class between Real and Bayern.
Hat off to Ronaldo.
Hat off to Ronaldo.
Carlo needs moar strikers.
Bayern really, really need Lewandowski back. It's a bit ridiculous to think that a club like them has only one actual striker. Yeah he's world class but NO backup? That's just stupid planning.
But I see them winning next week if he's back for that match.

That was so 3 years ago...
Well, Madrid are a more technical better version of Bayern Munich. Bayern can't really outmuscle them in any way, and when it comes to technique, the Madrid players are superior in every way.
Gotta hand it to Real though, no other team consistently pounces on opponent's concentration and confidence dips. They never leave mistakes unpunished it feels.
Great game. I can't help contrasting the quality of this game with the dross that's served up in our matches. It's a long way back for Manchester United.
The backup striker at Bayern would get disgruntled pretty quickly since Lewandowski is rarely injured.
Ronaldo getting all the praise but Carvajal was great as well
Real Madrid to be the first team to retain the CL trophy this season.
In other news Bayern's defense is almost as bad as ours. 
It was a mastershow from Carvajal and Marcelo. What a pair of fullbacks they are.
I just knew that Real would turn it around after the penalty miss. Said it earlier.
It's not dead and buried, but it's a tough task ahead for Bayern.

Err... They already have that one.
Yep. Best right back and best left backs in the world.
Carvajal is always great tbf. The player, not the RedCafe poster, that guy sucks lolz
Is Lewandowski going to be fit for the second leg by the way? It would help Bas Dost for the golden boot if he missed a few league games
Real Madrid going to win La Leches.
Between Real and Juventus for the trophy.
Based on the performances today and yesterday, I have to fancy Juventus.. their defence is sensational and they seem clinical going forward.
Dybala.. fecking hell..

I think so, he is being saved for the second leg.
To be fair, Madrid was just superior. Even in the first half I'd say. Bayern had a well taken corner, a big miss from Vidal and a pen. that wasn't a pen. That's very few chances for a world class team playing at home.
Neuer making mistakes more frequently nowadays?
The Bayern team was too old?
Alonso 35
Robben 33
Ribery 33
Lahm 33
Think he should have played only two of these guys max.

He's the last one anyone should blame tonight. He was a fecking beast.
Javi Martinez is the reason Bayern lost tonight with his two stupid yellows.
Hala leche!
Anyone else find Bayern's football boring?
That first half was dire.

Asensio is going to be a class player if just Madrid gives him more playing time. That's a big if.
yeah I know, was joking
It's not the first time that I am pessimistic and we win with a good performance.
That's my great intuition.
The red card probably costed them the tie.
Bayern can score a couple of goals at Bernabéu but probably Madrid too so I am confident.
I think that Ramos didn't provoke the yellow to miss the match.

I know it can be tough but I'm sure there are some older strikers who are ok with playing not too many games and a few of them out of position. It's not about having someone who can really replace him but about having someone who can play Lewas role. Pizzaro a few years back was perfect. I understand that you won't get someone like him every year but that's kind of the player they should have. (Or just get a top player who can play as a winger and striker)
