Heard the ROma fans making monkey sounds when Mane touches the ball. Any truth to that ?

Tweet from last weeks game

Roma is awful. I don't know what Barcelona was doing, maybe they were content with the first leg result and slept through the second leg in Rome. Anywho, Liverpool one half away, I don't think Roma is done conceding either. That yellow on Lovren was soft as hell. Roma are clueless in the final third and keep giving it away. Somehow I think Firmino will score again before its over.

Roma look hopeless.

they know Pool will scored right after they score

Yep.

Rome is a notoriously racist city with a long history of neo-Nazi ultras

This is why I'm not sure if I can put all my money on Liverpool. Their defense is leaky.

Right now the score is 7-4 on aggregate, they'll still go through but 3-0 over two legs is way stronger than 7-4 over two legs.

If Real Madrid is clinical come UCL Final then we could have a goal fest on our hands. At that point in time I'd probably tip my hat to Real Madrid because Navas is actually a keeper that can hold his own.

Man if Liverpool can put 7 past Alisson then Navas isn't gonna worry them either.

Roma should have had at least 2 penalties

 

[MikeyC]

What a hit, son.

Game............on? :dunnoboutdat:

EDIT: Maybe not. Guess I'll be a Madridista in 3 weeks time.

If Liverpool play like this against Real Madrid of all teams........you think Juventus got it bad last year

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

Semi final was straight garbo. In fact, most of these CL games have had trash defending. Keeper mistakes, handballs, defenders leaving forwards open, deflected goals, handballs not called, slips, .... you name it

Liverpool/Madrid now.....I got Madrid taking it 6-5

 

[bigdaddy88]

defending...geez....madrid has the edge just because their goalkeeper can make stops and the mid field can mask how bad the back 4 is.....
