Copa Libertadores 2018

[thornhill bear]

no contact wtf is the freekick for?

 

[Porty_true_blue]

Can someone please explain that decision to me. I have genuinely never seen this before, I'm so confused?

 

[Diego Maradona]

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

It wasn’t a foul, but to then give an indirect free kick..... it’s like watching the South American Steven McLean

 

[Captain Cutlass]

This ref is determined to give this to Boca.

Jose Beatez?

If he was determined to give it to Boca, he'd have given them a penalty, which would have been the correct decision in my opinion!

Hahaha.

It was a simple good block. The Boca cheat kicked the underside of the football then rolled around like he'd been shot

 

[TheProdfather]

Did the Boca number 17 win a competition to play in this?

 

[Arminius]

Vamos Riiiivvvveeerrr

 

[Teddy bear]

Disappointed in this game, every tackle is followed by dramatic dives and rolls.

 

[willowbankbear]

That ref came on boca juniors plane !!!!!

 

[Rangerista]

Y Si Senor!!!!

Infringement without contact, never heard of it in my life but appears the ref was correct in awarding an indirect free kick.

 

[Caesar]

No extra time?

Commentary says there will be?????

 

[Captain Cutlass]

My lad just messaged me that the barmaid in the bar he's watching the game in in La Boca went fkn mental when River Plate scored their equaliser....that's her tips oot the windae then!

 

[Sandy76]

I think dangerous play is an indirect free kick.....
But i dont think ive ever seen it given since a BB game 30 years ago

 

[Arminius]

FFS ref. Blowing to stop River throwing the last ball into the box while his Boca mate has cramp

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Stopping the game for cramp ffs.

Boca seem to get more than their fair share of decisions.

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Hahaha.

[Arminius]

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Extra time it is then!

 

[SHOTTSLOYAL]

Right I’m sticking a bet on, which team is the Loyalist one?

 

[thornhill bear]

ref is at it, pulls the game up in injury time for cramp, must have a Boca shirt on underneath

 

[Bluebrox]

Superb stuff mate.

 

[Bluebrox]

Stopping the game for cramp ffs.

Boca seem to get more than their fair share of decisions.

Remind you of anyone on these shores ?!

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Apart from one noticeable exception I'm quite enjoying this "matchday" thread, it's just football fans giving their bit about a game of football without all the hysteria that goes with our normal matchday threads (which I now avoid like the plague).
Here's hoping for a Grande Finale!...…...and Boca lift the cup!

 

[Bluebrox]

'Mon River. Take advantage of this now !!!

Barrios - what an idiot.

 

[Arminius]

I withdraw my Boca ref comment

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Remind you of anyone on these shores ?!

Oh yes!

 

[BrooklynBlue]

Remind you of anyone on these shores ?!

Yes, the whining about the referee - 'always cheated, never defeated'... is that the phrase?

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Never a yellow in its life ffs!

I almost “liked” your post .... until your last phrase

 

[MearnsUnionist]

Red card was probably justified, but even though I'm wanting River to win I'm sorry to see it.

Really enjoying the contest.

 

[Arminius]

Please don’t let this be decided on pens.

These two ties have deserved a winning goal.

 

[thornhill bear]

shocker! ref has changed shirts at full time

straight red

 

[sw26]

Top tier time wasting from the Boca keeper.

 

[Captain Cutlass]

They do but I just love the drama of penalties!

 

[TheProdfather]

River look a good side, how come they're mid table?

 

[sifter]

shocker! ref has changed shirts at full time

straight red

2nd yellow

 

[thornhill bear]

feck all wrong with him

 

[thornhill bear]

2nd yellow

should have been straight red two footed and a stamp

 

[MainStandLoyal]

River look a good side, how come they're mid table?

They’ve played 11 games, 3 games less than most of the other teams and they’ll go 3rd if they do win them.

 

[Smkz23]

Somehow can't see these being big sellers with Argentine fans at the match:

They just showed someone wearing one

 

[Rangerista]

This can't go to penalties, River will blow it if it does.

 

[sw26]

What a strike!

 

[randomhero]

2-1 River, nice finish

 

[Rodney Wallace]

What a hit

 

[Smkz23]

What a goal

 

[rossgers]

Quintero is some player.

 

[Rangerista]

Wow, feckin . . . WOW!!!

 

[Bluebrox]

Yaaassss !!!

 

[top_cat]

Quite good.
