Champions League 2020/21

Ligue 1 stays as it as and PSG lose this semifinal, we can get Poch back in the summer.

...would you?

Lineker can be a real berk at times, all his pontificating about the ESL last week yet this game, between two states laundering their reputation is “proper football”.

 

[Mikey10]

...would you?

Yip.

Especially if the alternative is Brenton, Graeme Potter or Eddie Howe.

PSG have bottled it.

Lost the their heads yet again!
Red mist descends, they have previous for this. Poor temperament!

You see it a lot from clubs that only have a few hard games a season, its entitlement, United and Arsenal used to do it too.

If they keep it at 1-2 then there's a chance

… until they leave Laporte unmarked from a wide FK

I never said a good chance

 

[Seedy Ron]

UAE had loads of the ball in the second half, but still needed a fluke and a brick wall to get anything. Cue the punditry tossfest!

 

[billyiddo]

2nd leg will be interesting, wouldn't fancy calling the tie just yet

 

[SteveAWOL]

Perhaps Levy can persuade QSI to exchange them for Kane and Sonaldo

Just!
But they hit self destruct so often it’s silly!

Le parisiennes need deux goals - le fat chance as Emirates Marketing Project will score again

Could feasibly finish 1-2 over 90.

For all the talk of PSG crumbling City relied on two fortunate goals to score - a cross that bumbled it's way in and a freekick through the wall.

But it's that relentless pressure that pays, they'd be more direct if they had Aguero on, or a Lewandowski...

Sloppy and very PSG. Poch has got his work cut out, it’s a continuing basic lack of composure in the important moments.

He’s got previous on not being able to sort that out over five years...

 

[Mosquito_Coasting]

Not sure why the commentators were drooling over this game though only watched the second half. Not many chances and not end to end and the goals were crap.

 

[Kandi1977]

Tie over?

I might be wrong, but I think the PSG manager has some experience in how to come back from worse positions in a CL semi final away from home.....

Nothing to do with any manager. PSG just lose composure as they boil over when put under any scoreboard pressure.
Sad as they are good when they can concentrate.
