Morata with the miss hahah
But Torres at least has won the lot: the football triple crownMorata
His fall from grace has been Torres-esque
Morata
His fall from grace has been Torres-esque
He's been good for Atletico so far.
Think it’s a free for all, we could get City etc
Schalke great fans and stadium, but the team is usually a let down.
Can draw anyone afaik.
What a match so far. Two fantastic teams being spoiled by shit refereeing
Anyone can draw anyone.
Open draw - anyone can draw anyone. No restrictions.
Really? I think the ref has been fantastic, always letting the game flow.
Fair play. They definitely should be countering harder when one goal gets them through.
Think Bernardeschi is a cracking player, seems to usually be under the radar when it comes to big names in world football but I'm usually always impressed the odd times I watch him and ... only 25 ! He seems like a juve old guard at times
Juventus have been very good . arguably should be 2-0 . The chiellini goal should've stood .
morata you....

He's been very good for them.
It is all set up for a Juve equalizer only to be killed off by Griezman during injury time
The referee has been decent compared to what we saw at OT against PSG.
Anyway, Atleti will grow into the game as Juve will tire eventually - they'll get the away goal and go through.
Atletico is rather uninterested in attack or even in crossing and I think it's pretty clear Juve will win this match. it's only a matter of whether they'll concede or not. Simeone will have a lot to answer for if they go out tonight without firing a bullet.
City - Schalke as expected. it will be 6 or 7 as I predicted.

Morata

He's never really reached the heights to fall really. A sub at Madrid and Juve and failed to make the step up as the first choice.
He’s quality. So calm and tidy and excellent positional sense. Always finds his teammates.
And lose some of their defensive strength? Why do all teams have to play the same way? When I watch Atletico this is what I come to see. Gonna be a brilliant second half.
Seems fairly unanimous, thanks. Think it’s fairly certain we’ll get Barca anyway, but heyho.
Poor old June. Still, might not be the first time she’s taken on 11 guys at once on her own.
Classic old lady.
Should be 2-0 but nonetheless in a must win game their is no other player I would want in my team then Ronaldo the guy is an animal his mentality is second to none.
Big second half coming up I reckon if Juve dont score early then I think Atleti will shut it out.

Exactly. Not once has he panicked so far
With the renowned choking prowess of both Juve and Atletico in CL, I'm conflicted to what will happen in 2nd half.
Atlético so annoying. They just want to sit back all game long.
Choking prowess of Atlético? What?
No I don't mean completely change their style but they have enough quality in midfield and up front to be more of a threat instead of just sitting with 10 on the edge of the area. Some of their attackers are ruined playing there and Koke and Saul are a hell of a lot more than just destroying midfielders.
I miss Morata-Lukaku thread
Morata looked good in the first leg to be fair. Not been given any sort of a chance today due to how Atletico are playing.
jose watching with tissues in hand then...
whats the point of mandzukic if you got Ronaldo? I don't understand.. he's not doing anything extra .
Juventus game is going to penalty with misses from Ronaldo and Szczesny.
Well he had a header from 5 yards out on the stroke of halftime. Went not far over but should’ve buried it.
Greatest CL player of all time and its not close. LEGEND.
Add an extra body in the box to create more space for Ronaldo.
I agree. Even Messi fan boys will struggle to argue against that.
