Just watched the game. (Ok, sorry. Obviously it was not existential.) Saved it forever immediately. (Notwithstanding.) vamos Madrid!
UCL is just always Madrid!
ManC lucky, lucky to score 2, which is so poor. The all midfielders defense is not awesome, and the Gvardiol - Haaland goal was legit amazing, but Real dominated for at least 70 min and had so many good shots. They will need to hold on for home leg but the ball handling is incredible wo center backs. They are almost perfectly press resistant with this squad. Ok you will have to play defense once in a while and the midfielders aren’t quite as good … but handling the ManC press is also taking away what has been a huge weapon. The loss of the defense — it takes but it also gives.
I know f all about MLS rosters, but I can’t imagine he isn’t the best player on the roster day 1 if he signs. Would think the forwards would take a giant step forward just with the extra chances assuming his hamstrings and quads, that are held together by silly string and pipe cleaners at this point, can hold up.
