Champions League 2018/2019

[spurs mental]

Good news for Irish Spurs fans ...
.
Virgin Media (ITV equivalent) is showing our free to air on Tuesday.
RTE are showing the Mickeys match.

Checked this last week. When I first checked RTE had the Pool game I assumed it would be on Virgin as well because that's generally the way it goes. Thankfully I was surprisingly wrong. Sort of wish it was the other way round as RTE have the HD channel and better coverage than Virgin.

Just seen the 2 VAR penalty calls from last night, just shows how much the system is still not the answer to the problem,
how 1 can be given but the other not, I knew that City got theirs as soon as the ref went to the sideline, they are always given then.
the call all depends on the guy in charge of VAR that day and what he wants to see as the interpretation of the rule.

Must admit I shall be watching Utd tonight with a warm smug smile on my face as they battle against Messi and Co.
Spurs did their bit last night....now I can relax and enjoy.

Any mention of retrospective punishments for the elbows on Kane & Vertonghen?

 

[aliyid]

Not likely, they’ll probably say it was reviewed by VAR during the game and not deemed to be a red card offence.

 

[Mouse!]

Really want to watch both games tonight but think I’ll go for Ajax v juve on the basis it’s on TV (Ireland), and that I actually want one of the teams to win (Ajax). As well as scouting possible future opposition.

It's funny that Virgin Media are showing the Ajax v Juventus match on free to air and the United v Barca is on their pay channel.
.
Die hard United fans will have it of course but those poor plastic United fans - how sad.

 

[Thewobbler]

Did VAR review salahs tackle? If they did and nothing happened then that is a disgrace.

 

[teok]

Apparently it's all kicking between ajax and juventus.

 

[TheChosenOne]

Got to be at least 2 goals in it tonight for Lionel Messi.

Unless Phil Jones comes on then it's a hat trick.

So I still think Ronaldo is better than Messi but I want Messi to tear Manure a five or six new ones

Not even close to Messi imo.
I agree with the 'tear Man U 5 or 6 new ones' bit though.

No he isnt close I agree - Messi is quite behind him imvho

I concur with your agreement on tearing Manure 5 or 6

I've had a bet on Barca to win 4-0....33/1 on Bet365....also had a fiver on Suarez to score first....hope they don't give it as an own goal.

 

[JCRD]

That should be a goal

Good goal too

 

[ardiles]

Suarez goal doesn’t look offside

Edit - VAR has rightly given the goal now.

Shove it Solskjaer.

Messi is the king.
