Champions League Final - Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid

[RedZeppelin III]

that Varane lad kicked the ball towards Simeone after the second goal went in . He was acting the cunt then shit it when Simeone came on the pitch .

Guess it was just a step too far for A.Madrid . Against Barca last match they were dead on their feet .

Amazing season for them though , hopefully they can get over this and appreciate that .

Fuck Real , fuck Bale , fuck ronaldo and fuck spanish football .

The American Fox broadcast is terrible. Gus Johnson and the other guy keep harping on about the underdog storyline instead of providing analysis. I think they might actually sound disappointed if Real score.

Ramos unlucky to get a yellow I think, it's been really inconsistent across the board.

Other thing annoying me about the Fox broadcast is that they aren't looking at any of the 50/50 challenges, which I imagine is because the commentators have no input to provide.

Setting up for a great second half.

99% sure all of the broadcast outlets around the world are fed the same feed so it wasn't Fox's fault on the replays.

But totally agree with you that Gus Johnson and Eric Wynalda are beyond terrible. Used to enjoy Gus' PBP for college basketball but he is just not cut out for footy. That and he is trying to learn everything about the game on the fly.

Hearing Gus say Athletico for the entire game and no one correcting him about did my head in. That and the myriad of names he gets wrong. Not to mention him screaming on every half chance.

Wynalda for a former player really doesn't provide much insight. I'm not sure why Fox are so enamored with him.

Bales first season, 22 goals in 44 games. Match winning goals in the CL final and Copa del Rey.
Decent..

Half the posters on here spell it "Athletico" TBF.

I suppose it is standard when speaking foreign, just add an O on the end.

I enjoyed the match for it's drama and passion. RM's extra quality told at the end, AM's fatigue allowed the better players to exploit it.

After failing to get the winning goal, Bale tries to assert his dominance as the alpha male:

I laughed so hard at this.
