[Vesper 27,310]

sucks that Ousmane Dembélé is injured (he is out til mid April)

[Vesper 27,310]

wow, Costa straight red

[Vesper 27,310]

no clue why he got a straight red, seemed minor

must have said something horrid to the ref

Bayern are not messing about in terms of the title

Lewandowski broke Gerd Müller's all time record for most goals in Der Klassiker

https://www.yoursoccerdose.com/2019/04/06/bayern-munchen-vs-borussia-dortmund-highlights/

They still got 6 games to play and the harder run in. They will win the title for sure if Lewandowski stays fit. That reveals their true vulnerability. They have decent strength in depth all over the pitch especially with signign Hernandez and Parvard. But without a proper successor or understudy to Lewandowski they will be in trouble. Without him they look a very average team. Sure Dortmund were mentally weaked and collapsed after the first goal but if DAhoud scores that first shot and Dortmund can counter it is a different story. We will see how the two teams react. I said to my brother who is a die-hard BVB fan that they only have a chance for the title if they go in for this game with a 4 point cushion. They did not and paid the price. But this Dormtund team is still in it playing with a completely inexperienced defense and wings. It is admirable how you can integrate youngsters this fast in the team and still successfull. It is really a shame for Reus tho, maybe the most gifted German player of his generation never in his life having won a big trophy.

Godin is such a badass

best 30 plus yo defender in the world

[Vesper 27,310]

I still cannot believe the ref gave a straight red on Costa

fucked up the whole game from a neutral's standpoint

the first 30 minutes were otherworldly

Bayern next season are going to be monsters

[Vesper 27,310]

Morata coming on I think

[Vesper 27,310]

Oblak is the best keeper in the world, not even close

[Vesper 27,310]

close to, but not quite Buffon circa 2008 level

[Vesper 27,310]

damn, Suarez sniper shot

and now Messi, within 30 seconds

2 nil

[Special Juan 27,102]

Love Barca.

[Vesper 27,310]

only teams that can beat Barca in the CL are Shitty and maybe Juve (CR7 jinx)

that 2010–11 Barcelona team was the best I have ever seen in my life

[Vesper 27,310]

great game, but the refs fucked it up with that red card

still, it is heartbreaking to see, as we are so so so behind thsi level of football, miles behind

[Vesper 27,310]

we are never going to be great again until we get a true world class striker

it isnt rocket science

[Special Juan 27,102]

If any of you get chance look at the miss from Choupo Moting in the PSG game tonight
