News: Paris Saint-Germain FC v FC Barcelona

Watching replay of PSG - Barcelona

Whoa Barcelona complains so fkn much. 3 guys go up for a header, both Barcelona guys end up on the ground (no contact with PSG guy) and the whole team huddled up pointing and bitching how it should be a foul

STFU and play.

 

I didnt see the match but I was surprised to see Beckham out there because I didnt think he was going to playing important matches like this.

 

Not to mention all the handjobs they get from the media. They are so good because their players never go anywhere and they never have to rebuild like all the French teams always have to do every year. Hopefully PSG will change that but of course they get hated on.

 

He got subbed in late .

I think there will be some regrets about going out because we had chances to punish them in both games . It's obviously no shame though and for that I can't be angry . The team showed a great effort

 

Join the club.

If I'm a PSG supporter you have to be super ********ing disappointed with that second half. The game was there for the taking and PSG just mailed it in under light pressure.

I've been waiting for Zlatan to have his breakthrough European performance for years now but now I think it just isn't meant to be for him.

Sad.

 

- Ibra was very precious during the first leg. He won every ball in the air whether a defensive corner kick or a long pass... He allowed the team to keep possesssion of the ball, to play higher. I can't help to think that if it was Gameiro and not Ibrahimovic as it would have probably been if he - unfairly - remained suspended, every single of these of those balls won by Ibra would have been lost and would have given the possession back to Barcelona. Even if tonight he has been mediocre to say at least, he's got an assist, he made superb pass for Lavezzi near the 23th minute, a perfect cross for Lucas after a beautiful pass from Verratti. He's also one of only players in the roster able to temporize, to hold the ball.

- Anyway, Ancelotti made the right decision by choosing to associate Motta and Verratti in the midfield. I was a bit worried because of the fitness of Motta since it's his first game since Valencia, I believe. He's been great, though. His quality of pass is doing wonders. Verrratti has been even better. When you see his performance tonight and his entrance in Paris, it gives even more regrets to see that Beckham started the first leg over him.

- Pastore has been fantastic. It's been more or less a month now that we see him with more freedom, he's sticking less to the left side. We see him much more in the center now. He's excellent when he plays like that, he's in the heart of the game, he can orient the game. Fantastic.

- We don't talk much about him since he's in the shadow of Thiago Silva but tonight, Alex was very good too. Perhaps, Sakho will finally understand why he's on the bench.

- The bad thing is the performance of Lavezzi again. Since january, I count only 2 good games from him : Valencia and Marseille. During the first leg, I was surprised to see him looking completely exhausted after only 20 minutes since he was rested the match before and practically didn't play till november with his supensions/injuries. The absence of Menez due to injury is really annoying. He would have probably replaced him efficiently.

- Congrats to the football experts who predicted a loss 4-0 at home and away. Don't play gamble games.

 

Benzema ?
