    'almost a sell out at red bull arena' cant sell out a champions league knockout round match? covid fears or is this normal for them?

    That's two dirty tackles in quick succession from Tottenham. Unhappy team. And now Sabitzer gets a yellow for a payback tackle.

    adams with a nice recovery run to force a less comfortable cross and a resulting weaker attempt on goal

    adams runs onto a long ball and has his cross deflected out for a corner but not before lloris got a bit concerned about giving up the embarrassing looping goal

    Adams with a foray into the middle. He tried the harder of the two passes available to him and it didn't work, but I liked the confidence.

    spurs look like theyve quit. leipzig just had the slowest looping switch between defenders ive seen and gedson i think was still a second late to challenge for the ball

    Adams is not making sensible passing decisions. Combo of rust and this never really being a strength of his game.

    Leipzig have dominated all 180 minutes. Spurs haven't even been close.

    i think adams is a perfectly good passer of the ball when playing centrally. he never seems comfortable out wide though

    He forces a lot of passes in the middle, instead of seeing what's there and taking it.

    I was thinking the same thing. Zero attempt at a legitimate play.

    Adams shot blocked/prevented, Forsberg hammers the rebound in with his first touch off the bench to make it 3-0.

    This doesn't make up for Arsenal being so bad this season, but it helps.

    RBL are a juggernaut right now. Barely matters who are on the field in their top 18.

    Maybe the best you can say about Adams is that he shook a little rust off, but that's nothing to complain about under the circumstances.

    TimmyHo about RBL: "They force their opponents to feel human." Nice.
