- TWELVE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL APPEARANCES IN 14 YEARS DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING ABSURD AND DIFFICULT THAT IS
- May you all be blessed with 1% of the confidence of Lucas Vazquez in a penalty shootout
- 85th minute. Bayern have a 3v1 breakaway to make it 2-0. Luka mother effing Modric sprints back to win the ball. Lots of details like that in this game that need to be highlighted
- I knew Real Madrid have been consistent in the UCL, but still mind blown to be reminded that they've been in 10 of the last 12 UCL semi finals. That's pure insanity. No wonder Modric said he laughs when people call it luck.
- Didn’t get a chance to post this earlier but it was beautiful
00:00 - Last journalist to leave. It’s a spiritual experience being here by yourself.
- What Courtois is doing right now is bigger than Casillas Leverkusen in '02. This is legendary stuff.
- If Güler looks up into the box before he crosses it's game over.
- Said Bellingham shouldn't be measured in just goals and assists. If you take away his game-winner today, he was brilliant. Incredible defensive work, creative play, dribbling. The goal was the icing on the cake. Perfectly scripted. Literally put a sword through Barcelona.
- can we please stop pretending Jude Bellingham isn't in his own stratosphere among midfielders.
- In one of the most energy-draining games of the season, 36 year old Modric in the 74th minute, sprints back down the flank and bullies Messi off the ball. Bernabeu goes nuts. Season on the line: Team high 88 touches, 4 tackles, runs length of the pitch to set up 2nd goal.
