A great game but I'd quite like a Barca player to half Inzaghi in 2. His antics on the touchline are ridiculous.
Maybe ever?Quote:

Yamal should have gone into the corner.
That’s as good a tie as there’s been in years.
I quite liked his ‘thank you inter, thank you barca’ at the end.Quote:

Two fantastic games , maybe a bit disappointed Barcelona went out as I was looking forward to a Barcelona v PSG final.
Forza Inter.Quote:

Think you’ve hit the nail on the head there .. Barca a far better attacking team to watch than Inter but Inter maybe a better all round team .Quote:

It's amazing that Inter had gone into this tie without a goal in their previous 3 games then proceed to score in 2 and a bit games v Barcelona, it's a funny old game!
Almost since a certain tie in 1961 involving Barca! :greengrinQuote:

Dont see arsenal trying anything different here tonight, hopefully it's as good as last night's game which I didn't bother watching.
Looking forward to this. But it would be lovely to be without Mr McCoists company this evening.
Some start from arsenal. Could have 2 goals inside 5 mins. Need to make it count and grab one soon before PSG wake up
3 RIDICULOUS saves from the PSG keeper. Insane
Down injured or trying to take sting out the game. Arsenal are flying
It certainly would, so it would.:greengrinQuote:

If Arsenal don’t grab a couple of goals while they have the upper hand, they’ll shoot their bolt and hand the game to PSG.
There it is. Some strikeQuote:

What a goal that is.
Rice diving in and giving a cheap foul away which results in the goal against the run of play.
Arsenal are not good enough to win this tie
PSG are quality. Real top drawer side.
Brilliant individual players but a terrific team ethic, very well coached, full of pace and technically excellent. Any team that dealt with Liverpool over 2 legs how they did are very high level.
One of the best teams I've seen in Europe in recent years.
Not that you'll hear anyone from the commentary team saying that. You canny criticise England internationalsQuote:

They lack/miss a clinical striker. Set up perfectly all over the pitch otherwiseQuote:

For all Arsenal lack a striker, and probably an elite left winger. I like Martinelli but think they need to be ruthless and get an upgrade.Quote:

Games a bit boring tbh
They also have Trossard who can play down the left and chips in with a few goals ?Quote:

Just noticed he’s had a shot on target
Arsenal can't get near PSG so far this half. 2 or 3 times they've been caught in possession and PSG are on them and breaking rapidly
Lewis-Skelly started 2nd half very poorly and that's him now booked
just a young eddie murphy.Quote:

This keeper is AI. If Saka could have reached out and placed that with his hand it couldnt gave been better.
Then he does that. :faf:
Potential pen for PSG
Softest penalty ever.
That is CRAZY. Game over
That is a ludicrous penalty
Now given away a penalty (though a bit harsh IMHO)Quote:
Originally Posted by GreenNWhiteArmy

Soft, very soft. :rolleyes:
Arsenal are just too structured.
Obsession with corner routines and long throw ins is all too predictable. It defines them.
They are good, very good. But just not good enough to win the Champions League.
What a ***** penalty. Justice there really
Justice done
Absolute knob taking a penalty like that

What a save. Fantastic
Saved
Justice. Nice
Was ridiculousQuote:

What a goal.
Great goal. That should be it for PSG
Partey standing watching. Arsenal’s weak link tonight.
Great finish. But awful from Partey
Arsenal defence awful.
Arm away from his body, made himself bigger and took the pace off a shot at goal. Definite pen.
Brilliant finish. Another season without a trophy for Arsenal.
They started well tonight but never looked like winning this tie over two legs.
It’s quite nice to see the boring Pep-ball Premier League teams get absolutely spanked by fast and attacking sides. PSG, Inter and Barca have all been tremendous value in these SFs.
They also look like they know they're not quite good enough. The difference in what PSG can create for that second goal compared to Arsenal tidily plodding about prior to that - no cutting edge to them.Quote:

PSG fannying around here. If they get to the final I feel Inter will be too strong and too intense for PSG
Saka misses!! Could have been 2-2
Should be 2-2
What a chance there for Saka
