    As he lined it up, i knew. I just knew. Liverpool have been as good as Barca overall, but Messi is just the greatest. What can you do up against that.

    This kind of sums it up.

    Never a 3-0 game. But they have him.

    Slap in the jaw

    That's a red according to the rules

    It seems that a certain segment of Liverpool's fans done more damage to Barcelona than the team

    Tomorrow’s headline writes itself

    Liverpool show their class outside the stadium, Barca show their class inside the stadium

    Barca will win a treble this year with no real competition

    I assumed Firmino wasn't even on the bench, what was Klopp thinking?

    Nice to see Vidal not going down in a heap that time.

    Pure fluke for the second, perfect free-kick for the third, Salah misses a sitter. They're the margins at this level.

    fluke?

    explain that

    Greatest player of all time IMO. When he gets going he’s unplayable no matter what team you are...

    I told some united fans going to OT leg v Barca to try and enjoy him if united lose. You can not enjoy your team losing and still enjoy this guy. We won’t see a player of his talent again in our lifetime...

    Like Suarez's effort with his knee?

    Top class improvisation. SALAH could learn from the best!

    Cheap a shots, fouls after the balls gone out of play; they've been at it all night ;)

    Even the chuckle brothers didn't conceded this many in the Nou Camp.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,387 ✭✭✭✭super_furry


    fluke?

    explain that

    A tackle on Messi takes the ball through to Suarez, he miscontrols it and it bounces up off his knee, hits the crossbar and falls perfectly to the feet of Messi.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,169 ✭✭✭Liamalone


    Should've been about five

    Liverpool matched Barca everywhere except where it counts, putting the ball in the net. 3 0 isn't a true reflection of the game but football's a cruel game.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Barca wasteful there towards the end


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 584 ✭✭✭MurDawg


    Liverpool looked gassed the last 10, Barca leaving a few out there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,181 ✭✭✭Crimson King


    Barca could have had two more in the last few mins. Really impressive pool lads haven't dropped their heads and are still going for an away goal. Return match should be very interesting.

    Sometimes the result just doesn’t mirror the game

    Embarrassing miss from Debele

    Liverpool got destroyed, could have been six


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,333 ✭✭✭brinty


    Good to see Klopp finally taking Neville's advice and ditching the champions league to concentrate in the premier league


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,833 ✭✭✭✭sligeach

    The point is he hit the post as well.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,073 ✭✭✭sReq | uTeK


    Wow what a miss to make it 4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,946 ✭✭✭TheCitizen


    What a miss for 4. A goal or two in Anfield and it’s Barca in the Final


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,171 ✭✭✭✭A Dub in Glasgo


    Some misses in this game including the two late counter attacks from Barcelon, could easily have been 5-2


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,649 ✭✭✭BenK


    6-2 probably would have been a fair result.

    Liverpool very weak there

    Outclassed. Hard to see a way back
