Copa Libertadores 2018

[sifter]

That's a penalty

 

[Henry Hill]

That’s a fuckin penalty!

 

[thornhill bear]

penalty???

 

[sw26]

Penalty for me, River player gets there first and gets wiped out.

 

[Henry Hill]

Refs bottled that

 

[tigershaw]

Still not sure what he's given?

 

[thornhill bear]

think the ref has shat it there. looked like a pen

 

[sifter]

That's a terrible decision

 

[Henry Hill]

Still not sure what he's given?

High foot I presume

 

[tigershaw]

Shocker of a decision!! That's a penalty all day long

 

[sifter]

Still not sure what he's given?

Free kick to the keeper i think!!

 

[BrooklynBlue]

Surprised Quintero didn't start for River. He's on now, though. It will give them a little more creativity.

 

[Rangerista]

Boca's origins - founded by immigrants, socio economic, political leanings and general demographic are fare more akin to the mentally challengeds. As opposed to River who have more of a background similar to ours.

Not saying there is an exact correlation but that's the way it is.

Wow, what nonsense!

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Keeper got the ball first....and was then assaulted!

 

[Henry Hill]

Ref giving every decision to Boca

 

[Henry Hill]

Keeper got the ball first....and was then assaulted!

Except the striker got the ball first didn’t he?

 

[TN8]

I'm amazed at how many proper supporters seem to be there. Did the clubs pay for their travel etc?

 

[Henry Hill]

I'm amazed at how many proper supporters seem to be there.

Great atmosphere for a game thousands of miles from ‘home’

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Benedetto off?
Strange one!

 

[BrooklynBlue]

I'm amazed at how many proper supporters seem to be there. Did the clubs pay for their travel etc?

There's over 250k Argentines in Spain. 5 Boca supporters club and 4 River.

 

[Heggy]

Cmon River Plate, they are more like Rangers and Boca are like the bheasts. Boca are a rancid club

 

[sw26]

Great goal for River!

Game on.

 

[Bluebrox]

Yaaaaaasssss !!!

Game on !!!!

 

[Recoba]

Glad i never cashed out.

The technique of these players is outstanding

 

[Henry Hill]

Good goal!!

 

[Rangerista]

What a goal for River!!!

 

[Captain Cutlass]

I'm amazed at how many proper supporters seem to be there. Did the clubs pay for their travel etc?

It's billed as the "greatest final of all time" so it's no wonder the game's well attended.
There are thousands of Spanish folk that have their favourite Argentinian team and there are also thousands of Argentinians that have made the trip over.
I don't think the clubs have paid for any fans to go over.
My boy has a few students that have managed to travel from BA to Madrid but they tend to come from "well to do" families......and oh %^*&, River have just scored!

 

[sifter]

That was a great goal

 

[Henry Hill]

Great that it’s so fast and physical but players don’t go down at every challenge

 

[Caesar]

20 mins from pens. Absolute sh*t yourself time

 

[Henry Hill]

20 mins from pens. Absolute sh*t yourself time

No extra time?

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Brilliantly worked goal.

No Surrender from the River Plate proddies.

 

[Bluebrox]

Too many half and half scarves in the crowd. Sickening.

'Mon River !!!

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Brilliantly worked goal.

No Surrender from the River Plate proddies.

Oh don't you start!

 

[Caesar]

No extra time?

Apparently not. Away goals don't count in the final either.

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Too many half and half scarves in the crowd. Sickening.

'Mon River !!!

You need to take a chill pill mate!
The game's being played in a neutral country and fans that attend the game and buy a half and half scarf are "sickening!"
They're obviously taking sides but perhaps they might just want a momento of the occasion.
Has that bit of harmless fun ever occurred to you?

 

[sw26]

This ref wtf!

 

[sifter]

How's he came to this decision!!

 

[Eugene Fraxby]

Too many half and half scarves in the crowd. Sickening.

You would hope most of those are Spaniards/neutrals .

 

[randomhero]

Strange decision lol

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

That is one strange decision.

If Boca score from it i wouldn't want to be that ref.

 

[tigershaw]

Nae idea what that decision was either! Is this ref Scottish?

 

[Diego Maradona]

Foul in the box. Indirect free kick. Have I missed something ?

 

[Arminius]

What a cocksucking decision.

That's just a good block inside the box

 

[bmac800]

Don’t understand that decision

 

[Arminius]

Come on River.

Intae the scum

 

[randomhero]

The way the ref gives a yellow card reminds me of that video of the gay ballet dancing ref

 

[Gallant_Few]

Foul in the box. Indirect free kick. Have I missed something ?

I've never seen a decision like that in my life!!

 

[sw26]

This ref has definitely been practicing his card flashing technique in the mirror.

Flamboyant.

 

[Arminius]

This ref is determined to give this to Boca.

Jose Beatez?
