The worlds best outfield player completely outwitted the worlds best defence and keeper twice here!

Think that's game over tbh

Juve haven't got going in this half

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:11 pm

Better than Messi in my book, wouldn't be surprised to see yet another hat-trick for Cristiano.

Could be Juve's 7th loss in the European Cup final.

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:22 pm

Some stat that. And Real's 12th?

Not quite same contest second half. Here comes Bale...

I mean Juve have won everything and it's all relative but to lose 5 European cup finals on the bounce is devastating.

What does Bale look like ?

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:28 pm

This game shows just why midfield is the most important area.

Juve have by far the best keeper.
By far the best defence.
And while they arent quite the same level up top as Real they are still very good.
However the game has been won by the midfield. The only time Juve have had chance is the goal which was pumped forward. A very good goal, but Real have outclassed them in the middle.

Ramos. A disgrace again!

Looks like a harsh sending off.

Pathetic by Ramos

Juve missing Pogba in this one big time...

Chester Perry · Post by **Chester Perry** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:31 pm

Ramos doing what Ramos does - very. very good at that kind of thing - for want of better phrasing

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:32 pm

If he's not getting sent off himself, Ramos is getting others sent off.

The linesman was literally right there, how could he not see that.

Funkydrummer · Post by **Funkydrummer** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:33 pm

Ramos a bloody disgrace. Leaves a very bad taste I'm afraid.

Turned it off, fed up of the seemingly over indulgence in falling down water.

4-1
Job done

Second time Juve have been ripped a new one by a spanish club in a final recently.

Will be interesting to see how Man Utd cope with this lot in the Super Cup final

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:41 pm

The Europa League sides tend to do well in it to be fair. I think there has probably been an equaal amount of winners from champions league as not.

simonclaret · Post by **simonclaret** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:42 pm

When is the super cup?

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:42 pm

Zidane already looking a better manager than Pep. I know they both inherited good sides. But Zidanes tactics are perfect every time. And to win the champions league back to back is some achievement.

Big decision not to play Bale tonight and it wasnt even a big deal for Zidane.

Good first half as it was a close game. Second half was disappointing as Juventus were very, very poor (or maybe Real Madrid were very good). That goal from Mandzukic was something special though.

Oh, and I think Ramos is a great player but I lost all respect for him today. Pathetic from him. They have to start introducing bans for blatant simulation. I remember when football was a sport for men. I wish that was still the case but unfortunately it's a pantomime now.

First two seasons in management and he's won 2 Champions Leagues. I can't even do that in Football manager.

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Sat Jun 03, 2017 9:47 pm

Juve were OK in the first half. But the midfield controlled it.

It takes more than that to assemble the squad - Zidane has used what was there and not really bought huge - James Rodriguez valued at £60m+ not even on the bench

Assembling the squad is one thing, managing them another altogether.

He has been massive for Real.

I read an article the other day in the Daily Mail about Zidane as manager.
He's making the big decisions look easy, like it doesn't bother him and he's possibly putting other managers noses out of joint being like this.

They also thought that Zidane won't suffer from the same burn out that Guardiola clearly did at Barca and its possibly because Zidane doesn't look like he's feeling the pressure.

The article also said that Zidane was the same as a player, didn't let the pressure get to him 99% of the time.

Ramos was a disgrace for the sending off..no surprises there.

- he wasn't the only one though...about 4 others stuck their hands in the air claiming 'something'.

Pathetic...in his many interviews to come I hope they all ask him exactly what he was doing.

Fat chance.

For all the ticker tape. For all the glitz and the glamour. For all the global attention. For Ronaldo. For the record breaking achievemets..

Well done Real Madrid.

But

I'm still happy and proud to be a Claret.
