How's it going? You're a glass half empty man watching that last night.
No.
The defending here is terrible.
I knew this was going to happen as soon as I brought it up pre-show. No, I thoroughly enjoyed absolutely everything about that game last night, but I just think the facts are true. The defending wasn't exceptional. I think that's fine to point that out. Two things can be true at once. Two things can be true. Yeah, they're not mutually exclusive, but I still thoroughly enjoyed the game and it is absolutely one of the greatest games we've ever seen.
I think the first half was,
off the charts second half was a bit more yeah yeah so the last 20 minutes kind of tailed off a little bit I was surprised I couldn't believe it when it went 5-2 that Bayern actually found some sort of I only saw a trend in one way I saw this going 7-8-9 you know and that through no fault of Bayern really I just felt as though the momentum and I know whatever about momentum but it just seemed as though that's the way the game was going and that Bayern would really have to dig it out and by God they did the goal Luis Diaz's goal the ball over the top from Harry Kane yeah We could go through every goal and we could probably save for half an hour and it'd be very enjoyable.
I couldn't enjoy Lewis Diaz's goal in the moment because I was like, oh, he's offside.
Yeah, it's one of them, isn't it?
And then afterwards, I should have really just gone with it. Did you just think he was offside in the moment?
I just didn't.
I just happened to be standing up watching it and be like, oh, he looks like... And it looks like there's kind of body language from, in fairness... to the Lions woman she did exactly the right thing didn't put her flag up yeah well we still got a great goal out of it I know it actually counted which was he looks on a different level Luis Diaz now with Bayern than he did and whatever about Liverpool last year maybe it was clear he wanted to leave
And whether that had any impact on his performance, I don't know. Just hated Mo Salah. Maybe so, yeah. But he just seems so sharp. Perfect system for him. So sharp. His movements, everything about him. It's a cut above. And you could say that about pretty much every player that was on the pitch last night from the midfield forward.
That front three is outrageous.
It's ridiculous.
It's the best in world football right now. At least for an entertainment factor. Well, the other end of the... Like... PSG is good. It's also pretty good. Yeah.
How did the teams' defensive strategies impact the game?
It's between them two. I just, I love Michael Alisa. He didn't have a great second half, funnily enough. But in that first half, absolutely. Do you know one thing that happened when they were 5-2 down? He got on the ball and he came back and was like, he didn't go missing. No, like no. Because he was so effective in the first half. Probably hard to match it again in the second period. But like, just absolutely unplayable. And I was saying before the show this morning that he's just a throwback player and that he's not afraid to take anyone on. He's like watching Neymar back in the day. He's just looking to take his man on every time he gets on the ball. I'd happily say those type of things. I say in the first half, I'm just getting a little bit carried away.
It's like, is he the best player in world football right now on form? Like he's just unplayable. Who's marking him? Nuno Mendes is probably the best left back.
