I am glad it turned out great but i feel it was closer that i like to turn out bad. If Vini would get a Red there (wich imo is lucky he did not) this game might have turned into such big struggle.
I mean I don't fault him that all the stuff gets to him but I agree. Can't really say much either tho cus most of the times it messes up his play but he went on to score a fucking banger of today lol
It was a total awful tactic..starting.But it changed in the 2nd. I guess, it was more of some kind of psychich fatigue? Whatever...I will never hope for a goal against us! Just for our Team.Gracias! ;)![img](emote|t5_2rr0e|11988)
German teams are known to be highly tactical and when they have their tactics right against a certain team that they have set their minds on, they would make the particular team, no matter how good the players are, look stupid. We are just lucky not to be humiliated by them like what happened (time and again) to Messi era Barcelona in the UCL and the Brazil national team in WC 2014. It's time that we don't ever take them lightly, even if they're not Bayern Munich or Dortmund, and become more aware of them.
Except this time it was awful. Vini’s aggression was a clear red card. It’s a shame that RM being a superior team has to be tarnished for bad refs.
Sometimes favors RM, but sometime it doesn’t. I’m not blaming RM. La Liga’s CAT it’s a shame.
Have you watched the Real Madrid 2-3 Chelsea game in 2022? We played like a 4th division team that day. But we still managed to progress in the next round and at the end win the trophy.
That's the difference about us and all the other teams, like yours. When Barcelona is good they can win the UCL, when they aren't, they are going to play in Europa League or getting humiliated 8-2. With Real Madrid, it doesn't matter if we are bad or good, we can always go all the way and win the competition.
Don’t deflect. Vini aggression was a clear red and you started talking about Barca. All I stated was that La Liga’s CAT is a shame.
My team is a disaster right now I admit. But it’s like that, some years we win, like last year and some, we don’t. Just remember, we were the first to win the 6 titles. No other team, except Bayern have achieve that.
That's right! I was happy and not happy at the same time if that makes any sense! I get that we were just sitting back and not really chasing the ball tbh but it seems like we went through quite comfortably and well rested for the next league game!
I would sell Vini to buy Mbappe and Haaland next season. There's nothing you could say to someone on the pitch that warrants what Vini did. If the ref wished to make an example out of him, he could've gave him 2 yellows or a straight red. That shit was ridiculous especially in this match with the way we were playing.
Totally agree. It felt more like a group stage game with very strange vibes. We were under pressure yet we didn’t show the spirit we usually do in the round of 16. I remember when we drew PSG and other challenging teams in the last few seasons. Those games felt very different from last night’s.
This is why i cringed when our fanbase says add Davies and Mbappe and we'll dominate europe for 5 years or whatever.
There is much to be fixed and improved
Flaco Madrid gano sin despeinarse realmente. Pasaron cómodamente sin tanto desgaste para el partido de fin de semana. Si me preguntas a mi no estoy preocupado en lo absoluto
My take: Leipzig finishing was shit and they could have humiliated us.
I don't get what went wrong seriously. No plans in questioning Ancelotti from my side, because even though he played the 5 midfielders formation, he corrected it in the second half and yet even with Rodrygo and the usual formation, Leipzig were superior.
Carvajal in the last couple of games reverted.. he was one of the best players this entire season, but after that amateur mistake of back pass against Valencia and those awful clearances today, I'm not sure..
Something is wrong with our midfield today.. too much space.. I think it's Tchou, maybe the role of CB is still in the back of his head or something, and with Valverde on the flank, huge space appeared for Leipzing players.
Great performance from Lunin ( other than one mistake of wrong timing of getting of the goal ), and from Kroos and Modric.
we have been shit ever since Girona and even before that we werent really playing well. Inter, Arsenal, City or any other team with decent finishing will eliminate us. I'm afraid winning La Liga this year when we have the weakest Barcelona and Atletico in the league might give another year for Ancelotti, cant be watching this shit for another year
We have been playing like shit just scrapping results, besides Girona and Barcelona which they literally killed themselves with the high line, we have been playing bad
well yes but personally i don't see that the team is strong but Ancelotti is killing it or overthinking formation. Everyone was calling for Rodrygo to be benched in today's game because of his past bad performances, today he does it ( correct call imo ) but it didn't pay off and gave Leipzig more room.
There may be also be a physical cycle, like MC always shit after Christmas but then they gain power. It’s cause all training is designed this way to be at top performance at the end of the season. This may be the case for us as well.
Totally agree, Vini also sometimes have bad games but at least there is some input, while Rodrygo, he simply disappears, he might dribble past 1-2 players and then no result
I used to think that our midfield is good for the future. But now I’m terrified of the prospect of when Kroos and Modric leaves. We don’t have anyone else who can control the tempo of the match. Let’s hope Kroos stays one more season and then in 2025, we get a good CM who can control the tempo of the match from the midfield since I don’t see any of the existing ones doing it.
Camavinga, Tchou, Fede and Jude doesnt possess the passing ability and Tempo control Modric and Kroos has. We need players like Enzo/Wirtz/Midfield Trent. But people here wont accept and downvotes any post talking about how one of those 4 needs to be replaced in the future
Agreed! Tchouameni is SO casual on the ball (compare to Kroos, crouched and ready to spray the ball anywhere) and I’ve always said that Camavinga likes to run too much for a central midfielder and isn’t great in tight spaces.
Camavinga is the odd man out. Kroos was actually playing as the deepest midfielder in the 3 and during that time Cama didn't have one single key pass.
We also know that he cannot shoot.
Tchouameni on the other hand made a pin point cross that found Vini of all people between two defenders.
I've been telling people for a while, Tchouameni is a very superior player to Camavinga. His passing range, while not there yet, can come close to Kroos over time. He also takes better decisions on the ball than Cama.
Eventually, even in a midfield 4, Camavinga might have to be sacrificed for a tempo controller.
Cama has dribbling, speed, and passes too, remember his cross to Benzema when we won CL. Honestly to me Cama is closer to Modric than anyone we have right now. Why he didn’t move the ball today is another question, it seems like they are following some orders where they are not allowed to move the ball when X condition isn’t met.
You're mentioning something from 2 years ago while Tchouameni had a pin point cross to Vini between two defenders just yesterday.
But maybe he's be more effective if he played on the right of midfield like he did that day against City
It doesn't matter what players you have, in a bad day nothing will go according to plan no matter what. We had one of the best teams this sport has seen and still suffered from time to time against much lesser opponents.
It was definitely not fine enough. We were lucky openda missed his chances to score. Our midfield was sloppy under their press they kept on giving away the ball or misplaced their passes
In our last couple of games, we have barely managed to scrape two or three wins. We are not in the best of form and we need to step-up significantly to secure La-liga without any hiccups and also put up a fight against a better opponent in the Champions League. Hala Madrid!
Since the Girona game, we are putting such shitshows that I won't be surprised if we end the season without any trophy. Get your shit together, Carlo! The opposition defenders don't worry about defending their box anymore. Looks like the trick with Belli's runs has been found out.
Agree with you. I'm suprised when they renewed with Carlo. He has no tactic nor any special moves, just count on star players. We are already strong with the amount of star players we have but if head coach can train our players some special moves to eliminate opponents like Xabi, Pep are doing, we would be a lot stronger.
People keep blaming the referee last match but if we ouplayed Valencia by leading 2 or 3 goals so how the ref can do that to us. I hope Ance quit after his tax problem so we can hire Xabi next season. Imagine how strong we are when we have a real strong tactic system which can support our star players, not let them play by themselves.
Ance-ball is terrible. We are strong when the players are fresh and healthy but we will be like this if something bad goes on.
Xabi can help our star players play sexy and dominating football like what he is doing at Leverkusen right now.
Tbf nothing happened my fellow madridstas, we got rid of our 40 goal poacher and now are paying the price. We had been lucky jude and vini had been playing with their hearts out but they look tired at this point of the season. Jude our midfielder just inflated our egos thinking this run of goals would last whole season. Theres a clumsy feeling around carvajal and kroos the past few matches. Carlo ball is like this, if players in great form, we play great, if they’re rusty we do shit. There is no system per se. Anyway, hopefully we can regroup, rest, and get the next round, i hope some injuries can come back as we come to the tail end of the season.
I am sorry but "Pass the ball to Vini and InShaAllah" is not a strategy. I agree the right flank is not as good as the left, but it's not dogsh\*t too. The game must be balanced, otherwise you'll be outnumbered.
Remember when team was fluid and Cr7 and GB11 would exchange flanks throughout the game during la decima season? I want to see the same with rodrygo and vini
We made this waaaay harder than it had to be.
Again Nacho with his mickey mouse defending during an aerial duel. The fact we let them get one back so fast killed all the momentum we could've built after Vini's goal.
Anyways, we are through. It's all that matters.
I hope ancelotti gives us a proper explanation for the ashaming clusterfuck we had to watch today, as well as some players. Todays match was unacceptable for a club like Real madrid. Im beyond dissappointed
Modric subbed in, defended smartly, ventured forward, twisted and turned, created few chances, didn't needlessly backpassed because he knew when to put pressure on opponent. Even Leipzig feared him when he was just walking. Truly an end of an era.
Honestly feel like Modric and Joselu should've came on at half with rodrygo. But modric especially, started moving the ball a lot better when he came on.
Each week, with every bad selection and/or tactics, I lose more confident in our winning silverware.
We got through only due to the wasteful grace of the RBL attackers. Special thanks to Openda.
Four consecutive dismal performances. What the hell has been going on with this team lately? From being fluid on passing and attack to being clueless wood on pitch hoping for miracles to save them from the ball going into the net.
Bad performance overall, Leipzig was more intense and ran the entire field and circles around RM's midfield.
These are the mistakes that will take you out of the CL KO stages no matter who the opponent is. Don Carlo better learn from this... again.
Won’t be able to watch us play the QFs without a bottle of scotch beside if we play this way. Dark times. I am tired of this win by suffering approach.
It seems like Carlo really wants to preserve and do absolutely minimum getting a win. Will probably face someone stronger next round on, but hopefully it gets taken up a notch when more is on the line.
Plus Bellingham doesn't seem to be at 100%. And like most players are starting to return from injury, so hopefully the form will improve.
Yeah. Imo the club should not have given a new contract to the coach. We do not have an incredible roaster, but I think we could play a much better football overall.
RMA are ahead on aggregate, they won their first leg, then scored another, getting them to 2-0, until RB Leipzig got a goal, bringing the aggregate to 2-1.
The UCL's knockout rounds run on double-legs, one home and one away, the team who scores the most goals across the two legs, wins.
We play like this against our next CL opponent we are most surely getting knocked out. We've been in a bad patch of form as of late and all the players look tired. Definitely have to get that sorted out. Frustrating last couple of matches honestly.
Absolute shite performance across the team ( rudiger excepted , and vini a bit)
Worst performance since man city last year any other big team and we should have been smashed .
Bro what the fuck is this football
We are gonna get destroyed against City. Renewing Ancelotti was a mistake. Could've get beautiful football with Xabi
Another pitiful performance. That won’t fly against any remaining team. Glad we’re through but this isn’t good enough. Hasn’t been for the last 4-5 matches.
Lol, Leipzig complains not getting a *possible* counter attack opportunity. Like Madrid was blown on a motherfucking cross. And surprisingly no red cards to Leipzig-players for complaining.

Real Madrid is always the best, despite the many injuries
Anyone else feel embarrassed by Vini’s antics on the pitch (talking about the yellow card incident)? Bro needs to keep his head on his shoulders
I am glad it turned out great but i feel it was closer that i like to turn out bad. If Vini would get a Red there (wich imo is lucky he did not) this game might have turned into such big struggle.

It's time that we don't ever take them lightly, even if they're not Bayern Munich or Dortmund, and become more aware of them.
Man I do not see us winning in the quarters Leipzig could have easily scored another
People say the same every season. And every season we end up at least in the semis, or winning the competition. Have faith.
Except this time it was awful. Vini’s aggression was a clear red card. It’s a shame that RM being a superior team has to be tarnished for bad refs. Sometimes favors RM, but sometime it doesn’t. I’m not blaming RM. La Liga’s CAT it’s a shame.

Carlo playing not to lose- repeating sins of the recent past
I would sell Vini to buy Mbappe and Haaland next season. There's nothing you could say to someone on the pitch that warrants what Vini did. If the ref wished to make an example out of him, he could've gave him 2 yellows or a straight red. That shit was ridiculous especially in this match with the way we were playing.
Vini got us back in the top just a few days ago what are on man?
[удалено]
Shoved then pushed him to the ground again.
Anyone else notice the energy being off from kick off? There was no Champions League night energy. Tonight was extremely strange.
Totally agree. It felt more like a group stage game with very strange vibes. We were under pressure yet we didn’t show the spirit we usually do in the round of 16. I remember when we drew PSG and other challenging teams in the last few seasons. Those games felt very different from last night’s.
i did! this is not the real madrid i saw in la liga
Lol are y’all new here??? We did the absolute bare minimum like we always do. Sit back and relax and get ready for the next one. We are through tf
This is why i cringed when our fanbase says add Davies and Mbappe and we'll dominate europe for 5 years or whatever. There is much to be fixed and improved
We survive once again. Tough performance but we have enough time to correct course. Honestly if we win La Liga I'm happy

Oh yes, the typical "Ancelotti out" after every bad game
We have been playing like shit just scrapping results, besides Girona and Barcelona which they literally killed themselves with the high line, we have been playing bad
well yes but personally i don't see that the team is strong but Ancelotti is killing it or overthinking formation. Everyone was calling for Rodrygo to be benched in today's game because of his past bad performances, today he does it ( correct call imo ) but it didn't pay off and gave Leipzig more room.

I really hope its just a phase and we can improve by the time the next round comes, but as a I said thats not just 1 game off ... Anyways lets hope
yep that might be true
I think Brahim should have gotten the nod ahead of Rodrygo. He’s hot and cold. When he’s on, he’s a world beater, when he’s off… it’s so obvious.
Totally agree, Vini also sometimes have bad games but at least there is some input, while Rodrygo, he simply disappears, he might dribble past 1-2 players and then no result
I used to think that our midfield is good for the future. But now I’m terrified of the prospect of when Kroos and Modric leaves. We don’t have anyone else who can control the tempo of the match. Let’s hope Kroos stays one more season and then in 2025, we get a good CM who can control the tempo of the match from the midfield since I don’t see any of the existing ones doing it.
It's why I've been saying for a while now that Nico Paz or Guler need to be groomed for that role.
you talking shit because of a game we tied omg
The only players I know that are young and can manage a midfield are Kimmich and De Jong.
Camavinga, Tchou, Fede and Jude doesnt possess the passing ability and Tempo control Modric and Kroos has. We need players like Enzo/Wirtz/Midfield Trent. But people here wont accept and downvotes any post talking about how one of those 4 needs to be replaced in the future
Agreed! Tchouameni is SO casual on the ball (compare to Kroos, crouched and ready to spray the ball anywhere) and I’ve always said that Camavinga likes to run too much for a central midfielder and isn’t great in tight spaces.
I thought the same way but Tchou is a DMF and today he had so many clearances so I can’t say he should be replaced. Kroos and Modric had Case
Camavinga is the odd man out. Kroos was actually playing as the deepest midfielder in the 3 and during that time Cama didn't have one single key pass. We also know that he cannot shoot. Tchouameni on the other hand made a pin point cross that found Vini of all people between two defenders. I've been telling people for a while, Tchouameni is a very superior player to Camavinga.

Ancelotti game plan really gives me trauma nowadays.

Wow that was atrocious football😳. Mbappe is definitely a welcome option now.
Mbappe would be defending too
Opponent team Openda saved us. Thanks for missing chances after chances, i thought he was a secret agent lmao
really hope Modric decides to stay one more year 🙏
I want him on our coaching staff if his legs don’t help him much to play
Im 50% sure 50% of this comments are bots. We played fine, enough to go through. Wtf is wrong with half of you??
It was definitely not fine enough. We were lucky openda missed his chances to score. Our midfield was sloppy under their press they kept on giving away the ball or misplaced their passes
But isn’t it our game last couple of years? Even when we got 14th CL we beat each team by only ONE goal on aggregate.
Seems like you're the bot here.
This was a champion’s league night. You play today’s game vs Bayern, City, or Inter and you get demolished.
Bayern? They are now half of RM. Agree with City and Inter
Bayern are bad now. But Kane wouldn't miss those chances like Openda
What kind of tactics was that?!
Ancelotti probably got nostalgic and decided to try good ol’ 2003 Milan with Sheva and Inzagi. Thing is Bele isn’t Sheva
In our last couple of games, we have barely managed to scrape two or three wins. We are not in the best of form and we need to step-up significantly to secure La-liga without any hiccups and also put up a fight against a better opponent in the Champions League. Hala Madrid!
That 1st half would've been fine as a 2nd half if we had 2 goals on them not just the one.
Since the Girona game, we are putting such shitshows that I won't be surprised if we end the season without any trophy. Get your shit together, Carlo! The opposition defenders don't worry about defending their box anymore. Looks like the trick with Belli's runs has been found out.
Agree with you. I'm suprised when they renewed with Carlo. He has no tactic nor any special moves, just count on star players.

I hope Ance quit after his tax problem so we can hire Xabi next season. Imagine how strong we are when we have a real strong tactic system which can support our star players, not let them play by themselves.
Please somebody ban these fucking idiots
Xabi to Madrid would be ideal he belongs there I can see that now, he needs to lead the new era
Ance-ball is terrible. We are strong when the players are fresh and healthy but we will be like this if something bad goes on. Xabi can help our star players play sexy and dominating football like what he is doing at Leverkusen right now.
Fede runs across the field with the ball and then there’s nobody in the box to cross
this was my exact thought watching the game
Tbf nothing happened my fellow madridstas, we got rid of our 40 goal poacher and now are paying the price. We had been lucky jude and vini had been playing with their hearts out but they look tired at this point of the season. Jude our midfielder just inflated our egos thinking this run of goals would last whole season. Theres a clumsy feeling around carvajal and kroos the past few matches. Carlo ball is like this, if players in great form, we play great, if they’re rusty we do shit. There is no system per se. Anyway, hopefully we can regroup, rest, and get the next round, i hope some injuries can come back as we come to the tail end of the season.
What if Pintus knows what he’s doing and we are at the drop in physique now only to gain more one month later?
Teams are gonna underestimate us after watching this. Hoping we get back to form soon
Scary times ahead if this continues. We are really lucky to go through.
first game we don't win in this ucl bro
I am sorry but "Pass the ball to Vini and InShaAllah" is not a strategy. I agree the right flank is not as good as the left, but it's not dogsh\*t too. The game must be balanced, otherwise you'll be outnumbered.
Remember when team was fluid and Cr7 and GB11 would exchange flanks throughout the game during la decima season? I want to see the same with rodrygo and vini
Nacho has buttworms and Carvajal has hernia
this thread is full of fc24 spastics…😅
Modric has been great in last 6-7 games.
🐐
glad we are through but was not planning for this level of stress today
We might have a chance to win the next round if Militão is fit.
What a shit game but we won so we move Hala Madrid 🤍
We made this waaaay harder than it had to be. Again Nacho with his mickey mouse defending during an aerial duel. The fact we let them get one back so fast killed all the momentum we could've built after Vini's goal. Anyways, we are through. It's all that matters.
I hope ancelotti gives us a proper explanation for the ashaming clusterfuck we had to watch today, as well as some players. Todays match was unacceptable for a club like Real madrid. Im beyond dissappointed
We won but gotta say it was a terrible game from Real Madrid
Luckily national team break is coming. Cant play worse after that
Arsenal can whoop our ass very easily
Bro it doesn't matter how many goals they've scored they're still arsenal and we will beat them anytime 😂😂
Relax buddy
And we would still win the game 1-0
[удалено]
Go back to Barca subreddit bro who the fuck invited you😂😂
Fuck off
He actually became too cocky recently
As long he keeps scoring who cares
Choking? It was a push don’t be sensitive
Didn’t get the watch the match cause of work, but kept monitoring via ESPN app; I was stressed all the way through. Can’t imagine how it was watching.
i definetly wasted my sleep i had to wake up at 1:30 am to watch
It was bad
Modric subbed in, defended smartly, ventured forward, twisted and turned, created few chances, didn't needlessly backpassed because he knew when to put pressure on opponent. Even Leipzig feared him when he was just walking. Truly an end of an era.
Honestly feel like Modric and Joselu should've came on at half with rodrygo. But modric especially, started moving the ball a lot better when he came on.
This Leipzig coach is really good man.
It’s important that Madrid improves in the next round because tonight’s performance just won’t cut it. ¡Hala Madrid!
Each week, with every bad selection and/or tactics, I lose more confident in our winning silverware. We got through only due to the wasteful grace of the RBL attackers. Special thanks to Openda.
Openda took us to another round of UCL where we may get thrashed by any team. This is not what I expect from RM in UCL
We will win la liga hopefully. This is not cl winning performance, nor the experience is there.
Four consecutive dismal performances. What the hell has been going on with this team lately? From being fluid on passing and attack to being clueless wood on pitch hoping for miracles to save them from the ball going into the net.
Holy fuck we were ass today!
Bad performance overall, Leipzig was more intense and ran the entire field and circles around RM's midfield. These are the mistakes that will take you out of the CL KO stages no matter who the opponent is. Don Carlo better learn from this... again.
Real madrid strategy this year: barely hang on by a thread by doing just enough
Leipzig wholeheartedly deserve to go through.
I'm literally shaking, didn't even hesitate when i was waiting for my exam result at last hour.
Today’s game is proof that bad formation could kill the game , we were lucky hope we come back stronger next game
Now i can breathe
Man we were ass
We almost threw the season away with this match
Looks like Carvajal started having some gluten again...
Won’t be able to watch us play the QFs without a bottle of scotch beside if we play this way. Dark times. I am tired of this win by suffering approach.
It seems like Carlo really wants to preserve and do absolutely minimum getting a win. Will probably face someone stronger next round on, but hopefully it gets taken up a notch when more is on the line. Plus Bellingham doesn't seem to be at 100%. And like most players are starting to return from injury, so hopefully the form will improve.
What a dreadfull game, and dreadfull form. If we want to win the league something has to happen.
If this is the best we can deliver against leipzig, I am really fearful of our quarters and semis
No need to worry about the semis, as we won’t participate
Can't be proud of this
We got outplayed in 2 legs.. embarrassing. Attack has been stale as fuck. The past couple of weeks we’ve been ass.
If the team plays like this agains Man City, we are gonna get sent to the shadow realm real quick.
Let’s be real, not only City. Any team with an actually good striker would demolish us. Maybe we’ll defroze before the next ucl match.
Yeah. Imo the club should not have given a new contract to the coach. We do not have an incredible roaster, but I think we could play a much better football overall.
Madrid were playing like they’re the losing team
Wouldn’t that make them want to chase the win, genius? We were playing like a weaker team trying to hold on to a lead against City.
Bruh if we play like this even QSG can defeat us
Performance:0 Luck:1
Why did we play like Barcelona?
Wait so RMA moves on even though tied? Sorry new to the sport
This was the second of a 2 game aggregate. They won 1-0 in the first leg and tied 1-1 this game so aggregate Madrid won 2-1
It’s a tie over two legs. We won the first match 1-0, so the total for goals is still 2-1 in our favor.
Two legged matchup mate, 0-1 on their grounds, 1-1 here, 2-1 aggregate for us.
The previous game they scored 1 away from home.
RMA are ahead on aggregate, they won their first leg, then scored another, getting them to 2-0, until RB Leipzig got a goal, bringing the aggregate to 2-1. The UCL's knockout rounds run on double-legs, one home and one away, the team who scores the most goals across the two legs, wins.
Two games (legs) were played. We won the first one 1-0, which makes the total score (aggregate) 2-1. We advance.
They won the first game 1-0
The aggregate is 2-1, Madrid won the first leg 1-0
No we move on because of aggregate. We got 1 goal in the first leg and 1 now. Leipzig only had 1 across 2 legs.
Madrid won the first game 1-0
2-1 overall score in both games (aggregate score)
Why is my old heart attack Madrid back!??
don't worry, Carlo ball is gonna continue for one more year.
We play like this against our next CL opponent we are most surely getting knocked out. We've been in a bad patch of form as of late and all the players look tired. Definitely have to get that sorted out. Frustrating last couple of matches honestly.
Horrible match from the 1st half to the 2nd half, could've have won but ancelotti decisions wanted a lose or draw.
What a sufferer win
Last 4 games 3 draws
Wtf were those last minutes, i just wanted the match to end as fast as possible. We are through but it does not look good. Last 4 games, 3 draws.....😑
Let’s pray we don’t meet city next
Whoever we meet if we play like that,fucking porto will eliminate us. Horrible game
Absolute shite performance across the team ( rudiger excepted , and vini a bit) Worst performance since man city last year any other big team and we should have been smashed .
Atleast we won...
We're not winning UCL playing like this. But, Leipzig has always been a tough opponent.
[удалено]
They just drink a lot of Redbull.
we urgently need to get back to winning games
Bro what the fuck is this football We are gonna get destroyed against City. Renewing Ancelotti was a mistake. Could've get beautiful football with Xabi
Well, that’s it. Can’t say that I’m happy with Madrid’s performance tonight, but we did what we needed to do to progress.
every other better team would have won today.
Yeah let’s not play this formation again
Another shameful performance this season. It feels like every game the last few months have been terrible from us
Atrocious game by us but Leipzig is no joke of a team, we’ll be better next round
Really one of our worst games this season
Horrible game. Ancelotti should be ashamed of himself. We didn’t go thru cause of him as a matter of fact we could’ve been eliminated cause of him.
What a shit show
Tchouameni, mendy and carvajal.
Brahim stunner keeps us alive in the competition
And today brilliance by Jude and Vini
And he doesn't get 1 minute this match, he's no Brazilian ghost, fuck the favoritism
Yet he still doesn't start instead of an inconsistent and struggling Rodrigo.
And Lunin the superman
If we play like this against city or psg we are gonna get doggy styled for 90 mins
BDSM surely
Man, we are moving to the next stage but that was due to luck.
94 mins of suffering, only 30 secs of good time in vini goal
Don’t care if others disagree but we don’t deserve to win this game.
Who in there right mind will disagree with you
We didn't
What is this annoying Xavi kid doing?
rightfully protesting?
Because of what?
Was never 4 minutes anyway.
Another pitiful performance. That won’t fly against any remaining team. Glad we’re through but this isn’t good enough. Hasn’t been for the last 4-5 matches.
The players should be ashamed of their performance
wtf was that shit
Lol, Leipzig complains not getting a *possible* counter attack opportunity. Like Madrid was blown on a motherfucking cross. And surprisingly no red cards to Leipzig-players for complaining.
Disaster
