Wenger...may not survive the evening, let alone the rest of the season.

Yeah, he's a casualty of this regardless.

Yeah, he's a casualty of this regardless.

If only that was the case

Barca v PSG status: Lit.

[Zetanio]

Barca needs two more. Baddddd

[Zetanio]

HOLY FUCKING TITS.

GREATEST COMEBACK OF ALL TIME IN CL

[Talint]

OH MY FUCKING GOD THEY'VE DONE IT

[Zetanio]

That was incredible.

[Talint]

May be the greatest comeback in CL history? I honestly can't think of a better one.

[Zetanio]

Yep.

[Roranora]

Best by margin, maybe best by opponent quality. I watched the final 35min on my phone saying fuck it to work.

I wanted to see the lead overturned the whole game then when it happened I had a sad for PSG.

[Roranora]

That result will rattle 538's CL predictions. Down 4-0, Barca had a 7% chance to make the quarters and a 3% to win the final. It'll probably be 25-30% to win the final now.

Edit: 538 doesn't fuck around. Barca favorites, winning 32% of simulations.

Fucking Suarez with the dive.

[Talint]

Really soft pen call for the Suarez one. He gets hit, there's a beat, then he reacts.

But you can't do that anyway.

[Tyrath]

He barely got tapped.

[Roranora]

Suarez was dropping like panties non-stop since the Cavani goal.

[Tyrath]

He was even yellow carded for one. The more I watch him, the more I hate that fucker. Especially when he gets away with it like today or that game against Ghana in WC 2010.

[Mugekuge]

Fucking barca they can die in a fire. Scumbag Suárez.

[Talint]

I hate Chompy as much as anyone, but he didn't get away with it against Ghana. He was appropriately red carded, and the pen was awarded. It was a hail mary that worked when Ghana whiffed the pen.

Sure but his cheating ended up working in his favor.

I didn't mean getting away with it just in terms of refereeing but also being lucky.
