Real vs Man City

[Mooseybaby]

So it's an all-Madrid final for the 2nd time in 3 years after Real Madrid edged past a fairly lackluster Man City 1-0.

However should Real have finished the game with 10 men after a pretty shocking "challenge" by Lucas Vasquez? Flew in with little or no intent to win the ball whilst appearing to follow through with a stamping type motion.

Borderline red for me. (But should have been red all the same). The challenge was little more than reckless and always looks bad in slo mo.
You're right about Man City though.
I think someone forgot to tell them they were playing in a Champions League Semi Final.

When Sergio Aguero is collecting the ball inside the centre circle - you know something isn't quite right. .....

I think you're being quite kind by describing our performance as "lacklustre". Semi Final of the Champions League and the team couldn't even be bothered to give it a go.

Terrible challenge that should've seen red. Would Real going down to ten at such a late stage have had an impact? With the way we were playing, probably not.
