Good match between two perrennial CL bridesmiads. Though I swear the Champions League brings out the worst out of posters around these parts.

Didn't watch but 2 penalties against them? Regardless, did I ever claim football was a predictable sport were upsets never happen. 45 mins doesn't change the fact that the Bundesliga is suffering from a bad year.
He was at a better level once that Dybala for sure will never reach and Icardi neither.Higuain is a fat oaf. He scored two goals against Huddersfield that made everyone overreact, but he isn't good anymore.
Lmao what a sore loser

He did it before kickoff too so maybe he’s just sore in general.
Pity that Schalke lost the game! But respect for the big effort. We don t forget that S04 is only 14th in Bundesliga. Schalke-Fans should be proud about this achievement.
Great save by guy whose name I can't spell after all these years.
RM never really had the best team, for me Barca have the best team the past decade on paper overall.
He carried them for years. Hat tricks vs Bayern Juve Atletico, etc is unheralded of. And RM have their worst record since before his arrival and they'll prob get knocked out the next round.
Schalke is 14 th in Table! ManCity currently 1st.Two penalties granted and the other team down to 10 men. Still lost.

Ya but Ronaldo was their best player easily for the most part.Ronaldo didn't "carry" Madrid. Did he score big goals? Of course. But there were plenty of times that he choked or didn't even play and the others stepped up.
14 copa final: Ronaldo didn't play because of injury, Madrid wins
14 UCL final: Ronaldo does nothing all game, Madrid wins
16 UCL sf: Ronaldo didn't play 1 leg, did nothing in the other, Madrid goes through
16 UCL final: Ronaldo does nothing all game, scores in the shootout but so did 4 others, Madrid win
18 UCL sf: Ronaldo does nothing in both legs, Madrid goes through
18 UCL final: Ronaldo does nothing all game, Madrid wins
A team doesn't win 4/5 UCL by being carried by 1 player. Benzema, Bale, Modric, Kroos, Casemiro, Marcelo, Ramos, Carvajal, Navas have all at some point during this run been the best or among the very best in their position.

Fair point on midfield since Juve are so bad there, but guys like Kroos and Casemiro are nothing special tbh.No he wasn't. If Ronaldo was the best player he'd have more than 1 UCL goal for Juve. It helps having the best midfield in the world and a striker like Benzema who is willing to sacrifice his own stats to keep Ronaldo from throwing a temper tantrum.
