yes, he gave a the yellow way too easily, and that is what made Vidal snap, the second yellow should have been the first, and might not have even happened if Taylor had not hair-triggered out the first

Liverpool should still have enough to qualify from the group, since 1 of their remaining 2 games is against Midtjylland. 

On the other hand, are Inter even going to qualify for the Europa League? Conte is so bad in Europe.

Conte's Champions League record (including tonight's game):

Played - 32
Won - 11
Drew - 10
Lost - 11

Not great...

So Milner is allowed to handle and foul with impunity....

[Fulham Broadway 16,392]

Masterclass by Atalanta. Their passing has been sublime.

It's actually a mystery why he shits the bed in the CL, someone like Wenger you could put down to being too idealistic but on paper Conte's management and tactics should be perfect for this competition!

If anything, I think Conte is too rigid and predictable with his tactics. How often does he even deviate from his back 3 system? And when was the last time we saw a team being successful in the Champions League with a back 3? His back 3 can be countered easily after awhile, as we saw it ourselves during his time here. 

If Inter don't finish in the top 2, it will be the 3rd time in 5 seasons that Conte has exited the Champions League in the group stage.
