1) 2-footed challenge on Messi
2) Pushes the ref
3) Applauds the ref sarcastically

Fully deserved red.

Yeah, with a one match ban too.

He's also been fined €600 for trying to break someone's legs.

wow 600 euro.. the damage to his finances...

Don't worry, I'm sure €600 will have a massive impact on his €140,000 weekly salary.

Only 140k? That's much less than what I imagined considering Ronaldo and Bale earns more than 300k a week.

Yeah they're in the >300k region. After them it's Kroos and then Ramos. Think Kroos is ~150k a week.

was hoping for the best. blind faith. the obvious happened.

time to do the same for the fa cup final.

 

[Random Passerby]

4 more points to secure top 4, i think.

 

[Frozocrone]

Still waiting on Wenger's decision me thinks

 

[Toxigen]

didn't watch yesterday's game, but watching Ronaldos goals feels like Atleti just had a terrible night and i really dont think theyll recover from this one. Hope im wrong tho bc i really want to see some fireworks in the 2nd leg, but rn Real is the first CL finalist

 

[Random Passerby]

Just watched the highlights. Atletico was plain awful. They managed to neutralise Ronaldo (who as usual doesn't get involved in the build-up) in the previous CL finals but gave him so much space and time to finish in the semi final.

 

[Toxigen]

tonight juventus proved once again to be the best defense in the world, we didnt really suffer monaco much and the whole team (especially Higuain, Dani Alves and Chiellini) played amazingly. We deserve another final but 2nd leg worries me :/

 

[Phadunk]

This is going to be one hell of a final.

Totti retiring from playing football

'tis a sad day to be a football fan.

Fake news. He's never retiring.

-Roma fan in denial

ahh there is the spurs we all know.

 

[Frozocrone]

Wenger wins against Mourinho in the league finally but from team selection it seems like Mourinho is eyeing Europa League as their ticket into the Champions league.

Just as well as Liverpool didn't get three points from Southamptom to cement top 4, Arsenal winning relieves the pressure off them a bit.

 

[Random Passerby]

Southampton parking the bus despite having nothing to play for and Milner misses his penalty for the first time since 2009. One of those days but at least we're still on track for Top 4.

 

[Arsenal]

Arsenal ending the most pointless unbeaten run in history

 

[phalanx]

nah Jose losing to keep Wenger in.. and Arsenal crap for a few seasons :P

We really need different personnel if 3-4-3 is our future formation.

It was an easy win and it was set up to be. Great. Good. Moving on.


Mourinho is a diva and there's no mind games.

 

[Toxigen]

and Cardill will be. Unfortunate to concede the goal but better now then later i assume

 

[gsninja]

Fuck yes Juve, almost there...again.

 

[Frozocrone]

Sad to see Monaco lose but then again it would have equally been sad for Buffon not to have a Champion's League trophy.

Monaco can take pride in that they did extremely well and are on course to win Ligue 1.

Juventus to win final please. Dream lives on for Buffon.
