bushman 2,043 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I know you live in the bush n'all...But are you absolutely sure you were watching the same game as the other 200million people?Or, more likely - were you in fact watching some Geese vs Beavers and the bus you saw was in fact a Maple Syrup Tour? Perhaps, you played with your schnitzels instead ?REAL was clearly much better team in the 1st half. Ease off in the 2nd though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Madrid have 2 El Clasicos(1 in CDR and 1 in league) to deal with before facing United in the second leg. Not ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy. 2,742 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 A bit harsh. I thought it was pretty good. Wasn't the greatest but it wasn't boring imo.not really imo its was boring the 1st half was good the second was crap apart from a few good saves nothing really happened Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushman 2,043 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 No they didn't. First off, I hate "park the bus" as a phrase. Second of all, ManU had about 4 or 5 very good chances to score. That's not parking the bus in any world. They played defensive counter-attacking football.Whatever you like I do not care. REAL had many more chances that Manure !Just pay attention next time or read the stats now.REAL 22 shots MAnure 11REAL shots on goal 11 Manure 6REAL 3 saves Manure 9Learn, read & then comment!

REAL had many more chances that Manure !Just pay attention next time or read the stats now.I watched the game. Real were better in the first half and then had a lot of useless possession and De Gea made one fantastic save, but most of their chances were long shots. ManU certainly did not "park the bus".

You were not watching the game, be honest.Nah his only real safe was that on coentrao in the 1st half other than that it was all easy safe. His "spectacular" safe with his leg was easy safe, coentrao did not hit the ball cleanly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REAL had many more chances that Manure !Just pay attention next time or read the stats now.REAL 22 shots MAnure 11REAL shots on goal 11 Manure 6REAL 3 saves Manure 9Learn, read & then comment!Wow, you're annoying and you've changed the actual argument. In your condescending fashion, let me explain some things to you:1) Not all shots are equal. Real had a lot of long range efforts. ManU didn't.2) The team with more shots, more possession, more chances doesn't always deserve to win.Are the only games that deserve to be draws ones where the possession is 50-50 and the shots are even? Real were better than ManU but not by a lot.3) Goaltenders are part of the team so a keeper that makes a great save or three isn't lucky, it's him doing his job. If a defender blocks a shot, that's part of the game.4) Actual shots on goal were 8 to 6. 5) You originally claimed that ManU parked the bus which is what we were disagreeing about. They didn't. When we did it against Barcelona and Bayern, we put 10 men behind the ball. We even started the game against Bayern with a defender on the wing. ManU started with 3 strikers in their formation. They managed a number of excellent scoring opportunities Not every team that plays at all defensively parks the bus. 6) Telling people who disagree with you that they didn't watch the game just makes you look like an arrogant idiot. communicate, Muzchap and Blue Armour 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think bushman need to watch our game against bayern/barca one more time to see park the bus tactic.note: btw how do I make busman name become a pointer to his name ?

zolayes 14,489 Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 couldnt be bothered to watch the game ...so I will just say Manure did park the bus and got lucky Kezza and xPetrCechx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Rvp will probably end up rueing that chance he had when he was 1 on 1 6 yards out and scuffed it... Real were the better team but man u did have a number of good chances as well and in the end were unlucky not to be leading 2-1. Still fancy Madrid though but it will be another interesting game. I fancy another draw and it wouldn't be too weird to see this going to pens after another 1-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me educate you once more.De Gea played his game of his life. In the 1st half REAL were clearly the better team. Had several chances to score more goals.In the 2nd Manure only dropped deeper & deeper as the match wore on & De Gea´s evening became increasingly hectic as a result. In other words Manure played " park the bus " tactics & waited on the counter.Centrao was denied for a second time when lucky De Gea block his shot with his legs.In my opinion REAL were a better team & deserved to win.Nonetheless nothing is decided yet. We need to wait & see in Manchester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diskoviolente 425 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 The header by Christiano was just pure class. Absoloutly majestic. It will go down as one of those sporting moments. I think this will be one of the classic archival fotos that newspapers will pull out one day to describe the legacy of Ronaldo at least at Madrid. I hated him when he was playing at United, but since Madrid his game got so much more classy, in a way.It was an amazing game to watch for a neutral (although i was hoping United would get roundly fucked), I was even a bit nervous because of the excitement.David De Gea baffles me. He pulls out some of the most amazing saves in one match and still he doesn´t look convincing to me. I know the stats, I saw the saves, but still wouldn´t I want to have him in nets. His save with the legs for example, it looks very good and reassuring if it comes off, but I think it doesn´t show signs of confidence. It looks too improvised. Difficult to judge, fine line between maniac and genious.I think United will have the edge now at OT although they have been leaky as a civil servant on confident data due.
