the card was about the hand tha went behind Hezze's back….no contact
It looks like Manchester propaganda to get Barcelona to buy it.
Who is that talking at the beginning… no one knows him and he knows little about Futbol
He’s not the only player leaving United and do good. Definitely he was not the problem and I am very happy for him. I always knew he was gonna do good. Keep it up Rash. Bisca el FCB
Olympiacos had great momentum and after he scored, someone from uefalona decided they should use some ref power 🤡
Both yellows to that player were a joke, the second was even preceded by an obvious defender foul, full hug, terrible…
Rashford well done
Barcelona penalty was 50/50 fair-unfair.But the red card was unfair 100/100.
Hello for everybody from Azerbaijan . I am seaman Fakhraddin Manafov . I have one question to all football specialists :
Before 1st game day leaque round of leaque champions , I wrote the opinion for Qarabağ results – how many points Qarabağ can take from opponents :
From Benfica – 3 points ; from Kopenhagen – 3 points ; from Athletic Bilbao – 3 points ; from Chelse – 3 points ; from Napoli – 1 or 3 points ; from Ayax – 3 points ; from Eintracht Frankfurt – 1 or 3 points ; from Liverpool – 0 points . Also I wrote that Qarabağ directly proceed to 1/8 finals . How do you think : Is it possible ?
So, Barca struggle when they meet Europe's elite? Since when? I thought the UCL holders struggled in d group and were beaten by even Arsenal. Hansi Flick has only lost 7 or 8 games entirely since he took over.
I dnt know where you guys get ur judgements from
RM as the greatest UCL were beaten hands down by this Barca team last season.
This season Barca have not had their best team together and you are already judging.
Losing to PSG and all is not well… B******t
Every second yellow has the potential to decide the outcome of a game as it leads to a red. Hence, VAR "MUST" be called in. Period! BTW, I'm a Barcelona fan.
I think the decision is a good decision when you consider Balde in the same game also got a yellow for exactly the same thing. It would be crazy, biased or inconsistent for the ref to give Balde a Yellow in the 23rd minute.
This narrative that Barcelona believes in academy players is nonsense and myth which is far from the truth.
In most instances, clubs(Barcelona included) rely on academy when they do not have financial muscle to compete.
Man United class of 1992, Barcelona (Rijkaard-Pep era) and Ajax(1995, 2019). All these clubs were not in financial situation to compete when their academies came to the rescue.
Man United when they became successful on the pitch and eventually became financially competitive, they are now buying players left and right with some academy players here and there.
Barcelona when they were financially competitive, they bought players like crazy showing signs that they really are "NEW MONEY" with very few academy players. They are now back to academy players because they are financially unstable and therefore unable to buy players they need. Lucky for them, academy has talent.
Unfortunately for Ajax, although they are strong in Netherlands but in Europe they are small boys which is why for them academy is still important.
Once Barcelona is financially stable, they will return to buying players again with few academy players which is what all successful and financially stable clubs do.
Rashford 3 games 4 goals
Not giving the first penalty to Olympiacos, reverting a goal to a penalty, the literal most insane red card in the history of football, nonexistent penalty to Barca, ref was the true MVP in this game.
Game decided in Barcelona favour by the Referee, where are all the Barca fans that complaint about Referee all the time
Momentum in favour of Olympiacos. Hmm k
Raul never scored a hatrick amd morientes ? 🤔
I am a Barca fan and I felt Casado was embarrassing. Barca actually didn’t play well.
Anthony Gordon on a par with Rashford. What are you smoking? It's about game awareness. As for the World Cup, we have to hope that Tuchel isn't as stupid as Amorim.
I disagree that a one off game is riskier than a long season playing teams multiple times in the same league. The pundits makes it sound like all the other teams play against Barcelona-like teams every week and that it puts barcelona at a disadvantage. I would take barcelona against any team in a one-off game. If a team cant handle the press from the start, the game could be 2-0 or 3-0 in favor of barcelona before they even know what happened to them.
THIS WAS THE MOST PATHETIC GAME EVER SEEN THE REFF KILLED OLYMPIAKOS FROM THIS POINT AND FORTH TOTAL DISSLIKE FOR BACELONA!
VARCA♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️😆🙆
For everyone who is shouting raul scored a hat-rick first , relax!!!
First watch the whole show then comment , what the host actually was first Spanish player to score a hat-trick for Barcelona in the champions league . So unless Raul played for barca u guys would be right , or u’ll just dumb .
Didnt the refree give balde a card for the samething so y the panel didnt talking abt that
Barca and Barca fans have loved Rashie since his Man U debut!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Refalona is back baby!!
Balde committed the exact same foul earlier in the match and was shown a yellow card. That alone highlights the referee's bad decision
But let’s flip the scenario if Balde had received a second yellow and been sent off,
Many of you would be quick to say, “That’s definitely a yellow.
Funny how the narrative shifts when the consequences change.
VAR is out of control … it has to be reined in to let the referees referee.
As a Barça fan, I have to say that second yellow was never a yellow.
It wasn’t just a soft foul it completely disrupted the game for Olympiacos.
That decision changed everything.
That said, Balde committed the same foul and received a yellow card in the same match.
It only shows just how mediocre the referee is.
