You're clearly bias as you support Real and it's funny how you reiterate how Vidal should have been off earlier but can you justify the 2 offside goals? I guess not.
Casemiro made clear contact with Robben and not with the ball inside the box. So it was simple to give the pen.
How do I hate Spanish football? I probably know a lot more about Spanish football than you do and I'm only stating facts.
I never justified any of the offside goals. I actually never commented about them before now.
The 1st offside goal was clear and blatant offside, no doubt. The 2nd was alot harder for the linesman to judge as Marcelo and Ronaldo was really close and the linesman was far behind. Offside yes, but very hard to call.
As stated in the rules of football, if a situation arise and the referee and/or linesman are in doubt, it should go in the attacking teams favor, no matter who, where or what.
And again, how am I clearly being bias when I objectively said that the referee did quite a few mistakes (both ways) and e.g Casemiro should been sent off too?
Also, Robbens soft penalty was never A CLEAR foul from Casemiro. Sure, there might have been slight contact but only Robben and a handful of other divers would have made that much out of it.
Casemiros shout for penalty was a much clearer foul from Boateng from what i've seen. But you don't see me crying to much about it. Even if it bothers me alot too. Everyone is just busy bashing the red card to care about the other highlights.
Hardly an attack on someone and what do you expect in response when they say this:
That was a figure of speech, but you don't seem to know the meaning of that.
You know nothing about spanish football it seems. You said:
So on to the topic about Spanish dominance. Yet Barca lost to Juventus 3-0, Leicester knocked out Sevilla who are 4th in the table whereas Leicester sit in 12th in the PL. And for Atletico, only marginally beating Leicester to proceed into the semi's. How is that dominance?
Then how do you explain that the spanish teams have been dominating european leagues and cups the last... 20 years or more. Sure, they haven't won ALL finals every year, but just the fact that Real have come to 6 semi finals in CL of the last 6 and won 2 (on top of Barcelonas wins and Atleticos achievements, and Sevillas good runs in the Europa League), and loads of other results show that spanish teams DO infact dominate european football, whether you like it or not. You obviously don't.
Looking up the facts it gets interesting. Since Champions League was renamed in '92, Real have won CL 5 times (11 in total), Barcelona 5 times (1 final loss), Atletico 2 times runners up and Valencia 2 times runners up. Then you have Barcelona winning the UEFA Cup Winners cup 4 times and Real Zaragoza 1 time.
Now, in Europa League Sevilla have been dominating and have won 5 times in 11 years (3 in a row just recently in 2014-16) and Atletico won twice in '10 and '12. Valencia also won it in '04, with other spanish teams as runners up in there. All this since '92. As a matter of fact, most of these achievements are from '00 and till today. So you say spanish football isn't dominating?
There are other european cup titles and Fifa Club World Cup stuff that I could mention, but I simply can't be bothered.
I am not gonna argue more with you as there will be no reasonable or interesting discussion with you.
Lets look forward to the upcoming games and of course hope that the referees are showing a higher level of... well... refereeing.
Monaco v Dortmund and Barcelona v Juventus is tonight......once everyone has calmed down.
Very interesting games as Dortmund MUST attack and score at least 2 goals or more, and Barcelona needs 3 goals or more. Should be very entertaining. 👍
