Tonight’s games

[renato]

Goalie who has been a credit to football and his club for countless years sees probably his last chance of winning the Cup gone. How would you be?

Saved me typing, exactly. Winners would apparently just accept that, with all those different factors at play for him?

Wow

[guthrie01]

The header back by Ronaldo and then the pen show what a great player he is. His antics for the whole 90 minutes in diving, moaning, calling for opponents to be booked etc. underline what a destestable individual he is, and again highlight why he will never be loved the way Messi is.

Don’t think he really cares what people think about him.

Ronaldo wins trophies, pure and simple and he does whatever it takes to do so which I admire

[Pedantic_Hibee]

Shove my arse.

Not tonight, dear.

[gaz1875]

No pen for me, I thought the defender done brilliant avoiding contact, the Real player was heading down when he heard his breath beside him. Just like Ronaldo anytime he was in the box.

I think that's why he never tried to header it. Waiting to go down.

[cabbageandribs1875]

ronaldo wins the biggest poser on planet earth, he can watch himself collecting his award on the big screen, he spends half the game looking at it anyway

[Clerie Green]

Never a shove .
Buffon should have punched him in the puss .
why am I even bothered ?
theyre not the Hibees !!!
Donald Duck them .

[Onion]

Tough on Juve as they were by far and away the best team on the night. RM were dreadful and very very lucky. The English ref was out of his depth and under huge pressure to give the pen at the end.

In the end, it was easier for him to give it than not.

[truehibernian]

Definite penalty for me, heartbreaking after the effort Juve put into that game though.

Madrid player is cute and waits for / invites the challenge coming in from behind him - but the ref made the right call for me. Juve player's raised leg catches the player in the back.

For selfish reasons I would like to see Liverpool reach the final - showing young Scottish players how far you can get in the game with hard work and belief (Andrew Robertson). Queen's Park in the Scottish Third Division to a Champions League Final with a top 4 EPL club in the space of 5 years - that would be some story :agree:

To be fair Buffon certainly quite clearly told the referee to go and **** himself after the red card.

[Sauzee16]

Champions League is ***** tho eh?

[JimBHibees]

It was. What else could the ref do, stupid challenge and stonewaller.

Never enough of a pen to be given at that stage of the game. Oliver couldn't wait to give it. He was practically wearing a real top with the number of soft fouls and yellows he gave. As for then red carding Buffon dear oh dear. No wonder Real do so well with the refs more than ready to help them out at every turn.

[Sauzee16]

I think he will stay next year tho. He’s an incredible athlete and inspirational to Juve. I can’t see him ending this way. Poor arse am reserve goalie.

Which in the circumstances was fair enough.

[Dinkydoo]

Not a penalty for me; the ball is won by the defender before any momentum contact is made. It was an unorthodox challenge (from behind, but not through the player) and that's why the ref's probably given it. It happens so fast in real time that you probably make-up any gaps in what you saw with what you'd expect to have happened.

Buffon reacted angrily, but I think the ref shat it a bit by sending him off. A booking and if doesn't calm down then a red would have sufficed.

Hopefully Buffon does the "suprise, this year is the last one I promise" routine again next season. Doubt it though, I've seen a few mistakes creeping into games that weren't there in his earlier career and he probably knows that it's time.

[Thecat23]

I still can’t decide if that’s a pen. Football is a contact sport remember and I’m not sure that’s a foul anywhere else on the park. If it was Hibs I’d want it so god knows.

Buffon though reacts like a child and deserves the red 100%. You can’t do that these days and being up in the refs face all aggressive only one outcome. Shame as it’s a sad way to end your CL career.

The question you have to ask is, if that challenge is anywhere else in the box is a pen given? id say 19 out of 20 its a no. Just because its in the middle of the goal six yards out it doesnt make it a worse challenge. very very soft.

well i & all the TV pundits saw it :greengrin

[Lancs Harp]

Considering how well Juve had played in general but especially defended well, it was a a bit of a shock to me at least to see Ronaldo in the box with that amount of space in front of his marker in injury time with the tie tied at 3-3. Was a penalty for me, very clumsy but the error was letting Ronald in that position relatively unmarked. Very unJuve.

[hibsbollah]

Its definitely unclear whether its Really a clear penalty.

No what is unclear is why some folk can't see it as a foul and a penalty which is what it actually was.

My first reaction was that it’s a penalty. Ref only gets one look too, so can understand why he gave it. After seeing replays, I’m not so sure.

[One Day Soon]

Regretting booking Tenerife now.

Feel for Buffon. Yes he lost it but emotions running high and he never got violent.

Ref shouldn’t have sent him off.

[Johnny_Leith]

Why shouldn't be have? Should players be allowed to remonstrate like that? Looked like a classic case of playground cannae take it to me. Don't blame the ref for sending him off. Pen all day long.

Crivvens if that was the criteria there would be 10 pens a match, hand balls, holding at corners etc.

[Dunbar Hibee]

Greatest player in the world winning massive game for his team, again. Will no doubt lift the CL trophy.... again. Standard. Viva Ronaldo.

[blackpoolhibs]

Not every handball is a penalty, but someone blatantly pushing another player over with both hands is a foul everywhere on the park.

Players who grab players and pull their shirts at corners should be penalised, don't you think, or should they be allowed to do it? :confused:

[MKHIBEE]

Did anyone brave a cheeky double on Roma/Juve to go win/ go through? Curious as to what those odds were

Ruben Neves' goal for Wolves last night is up there with the very best I've ever witnessed in my life.

[matty_f]

Liverpool keeper punched a cross away - it hit Milner and went back towards goal and the city player tapped it in.

Saw it on the highlights last night. Farcical decision really. Can only think that the linesman thought it was the City player that played the ball forward again. Ref should have spotted that though.

The problem with this is that there are duplicate offenses being committed by both sides at corners. The laws of the game say you should punish the most serious offence and unfortunately they usually all cancel each other out.

In my opinion it was a penalty and a yellow card offence. If it happened earlier in the game no-one would have said very much about it.

Buffon's red was deserved but it could have been any out of about 4 or 5 Juve players that could have been sent off.

The pundits all agreed initially it was a penalty then started to change their minds! It was a bit farsical.

I though the ref was a bit card happy throughout but got the big decisions correct.


in years to come Juve will be talking about their fabulous come back and how they were cheated out of winning the cup (despte this being only the QF)

Grappling at free kicks and corners in the box would instantly stop if the refs had the balls to give a penalty every time.

No idea why they wont administer the laws of the game properly? :confused:

[Just Jimmy]

Its the same teams year after year.....ok roma have probably upset the usual teams but i think folk complain that it is pretty predictable. Id have def guessed 2 of the semi finalists before a ball was kicked......and it will be the same next year.So is most competitions tbh.
Scottish cup 3/4?
FA Cup?
League cups?
Scottish league
English league
German league
Spanish league
Italian league
Champions league

Most of the European competitions are won by nearly always a few of the same clubs. That's another argument. This year the standard of the champions league has been excellent, exactly how it should be. Not the boring negative football cancelling each other out in the past.

The most bizarre game I’ve seen this season.

Lazio 1-0 up, Salzburg then score 4 goals (2 were huge deflections) and Lazio implode at the back too.

Also, at 1-1, Immobile scores but wrongly ruled offside and Luis Alberto misses an absolute sitter to make it 2-2.

Sum of all that is Salzburg going through as it stands, quite incredible game..

[renato]

I feel a bit sorry for Lazio, they’ve been on the end of some absolutely shocking decisions this season and yet another one tonight looks like it’s going to cost them.
