Wow.
Like I said, give me one word to describe that first leg.
Hey!
Oh, yeah.
It's all about perspective.
Look.
I don't think any of us expected that.
Don't you expect the senior players to step in at some point, especially at halftime?
You're 4-0 down to Atleti.
You're making Atleti look like they're playing the type of high-press football that you are known for, scoring golazos every second.
At some point, doesn't the senior players look at the gaffer and just say, Coach, let's just go back to good old school defending?
And I mean, we've been talking about this since last season, not even this season.
So the fact that it's continuing is just absolutely mind blowing for Hansi Flixman.
We're going to talk about some individual performances.
They did that and more indeed.
We're going to talk about some individual performances, especially Julian Alvarez in just a bit.
But Ale, I just want to pick your brain on that disallowed goal for Barcelona and just the fact that VAR took not one, not two, not three, not even four, not even five, but it was about six, seven or eight minutes to make the call.
I mean, this is getting silly season now.
And yes, we can say it was the right call because an offside is an offside.
But I feel like a couple of years ago, this goal would have stood.
