    Man, Bayern really messed up the state of Barcelona's entire club lmao. Messi and Suarez on the verge of leaving... especially Messi... Man 2020 is only getting crazier.
    As a Madridista, I gotta say that I'm pleased to see Barcelona is in shambles... That team has been one man team for the last decade... Fraud. They're going back to the original place before the Messi or even Ronaldinho era.

    It's pretty disastrous for Barcelona one way or another if Messi leaves or stays regardless. Koeman won't be having otherworldly expectations if Leo departs, there won't be an obligation for them to go compete in the UCL to once again get obliterated. He can just focus on trying to start a new project in the club...whatever the f--- it is cause at the moment they look lost.

    Messi should seriously consider Italy, the slower tempo is ideal for his playing style where he can spray passes into space for whatever forward has the fortune of playing alongside him. He'd have to take a massive, massive paycut as no team could afford him, the payoff is he'd at least be legitimately competing for trophies again. Juventus would be astronomical, but realistically he'd probably reunite with Pep or head over to Paris to see if they can finally win the UCL.

    Political correctness. I lean more towards people like Mourinho. It makes football more interesting.

    Funniest video I've seen on this rivalry topic was when Sampdoria got relegated to Serie B and Genoa, their biggest rivales(from the same town) organised a funeral bringing out a coffin covered in Sampdoria's flag.

    Uff big chances from both sides, one little mistake will open this game up big time.

    Nice to see once again two philosophies being imposed without interruption. Nervous first 15 minutes with Bayern unable to capitalize the high press before PSG grew with confidence. PSG’s medium block grew with every passing minute, and naturally they looked dangerous on the counter. Some big saves from both gks, it’s only a matter before the goals fly in from either side.

    Yeah as a fan of Inter and based on their performance this EL season I really wanted them to get a prize.

    But based on this (amazing) final neither deserved to loose tbh. Could have gone 2 ways and in the end they were both exhausted. Great game and congrats to Sevilla. Next year CL for Inter (and more importantly, my AFCA!)

    Sevilla the Real Madrid of this competition. It’s no coincidence Monchi returned to this team and they returned to their winning ways. So happy for Lopetegui, his dismissal from Real was painful to see and he got the better of Conte in that decisive 2nd half.

    Sorry for the loss @Michael Myers, Inter had a rough season, but Conte is the right man to get them back to greatness. Hakimi coming in this season gonna be a huge help, they just need to retain a few important pieces.

    The funny thing is both these teams are known more for not scoring a lot. We’ve had 4 goals fly in the net this half lol.

    Both teams philosophies are being on display without interruption; Sevilla moving the balls on the flanks for the cross, Inter looking to play from deep progression to get their strikers running at the CBs. Two great set-piece plays, very even half, it’s reasonable to be excited for this 2nd half

    Exactly how I missed the first goal that Sevilla scored, went to the kitchen fast to grab a lighter and boom!

    This Sevilla team refuses to die :banderas:

    They’ve been a crossing machine in La Liga, shocked by Inter’s lackluster defending there. We got a game!

    *were
    That was last year my friend, this year you lost 3-2 at home after having 2-0 with 15 minutes left against a team that struggled to get shots on target against Leipzig.
