I thought they played some really good football.
It looked like they was going to score on every time they went forward.
Real Madrid would shell-shot
However, I don't know what Real Madrid, so you've got, they're playing 4-4-2 and obviously Mbappe wasn't available because he's nursing some injury.
But Goula's like a number 10 stroke.
You can play him off the right-hand side, but he's played in the middle with Chouhameni and Kamavinga left and then Valverde right, but Valverde, like I'm not telling Albaloa how to do his job, but I was thinking-
It's too empty in the middle of the field.
Goulas, he works really hard, but he's a luxury number 10, get things going.
He's not going to go up and down and back and forth.
And Benfica was allowed to go through the middle of the pitch so easily.
I was thinking, no, this can't happen.
They're going to get punished.
And then Chouameni scored, didn't he?
And it was like, okay, here we go.
Did you see him dancing as well?
Just, I mean, again, it's just cowardly, isn't it?
Everything about the events that went on was just cowardly.
And it carried on.
And it was like, I understand.
If he's saying he's innocent, you know, and you understand why they just said, okay, let everything calm down and take the, you can't call it a bath.
