Re: Soccer/Football random discussion thread

my gosh that last goal from messi was sick, it seems like he is often reluctant to shoot from that range with barca?

He rarely gets that much space so that he can shoot from that distance with pace.

Jesus, so many fireworks coming from La 12. Smoky as hell on the field. Riquelme pleading for the crowd to calm down as the game is suspended for now.

Boca up 2-0.

Re: Soccer/Football random discussion thread

A 2-0 seems impossible to turn around back in Santiago so going for the away goal in suicide mode doesnt seem such an awful idea.

Agree which is why how open Boca are playing seems a little surprising to me.

Doesn't even have to be quality. I think 50,000 turned up for Honduras-New Zealand in Dallas.

Re: Soccer/Football random discussion thread

There are no away goals in the final, Im not sure how that change the dynamics but in general home teams will take more risks.
We still have the supercup against Santos btw, Im loooking forward to it.
