all on the bench
PSG and Zebra coming out of the tunnel!
I have to admit, I really like Peter Schmeichal's commentary on the sideline. Alex Scott too.
Good afternoon, Steve. Thanks for getting us started. Got the pregame show on CBSSN and the match on Access
Good afternoon, Dave.
Team to play PSG: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Tuanzebe, Shaw, Telles, Fred, McTominay, Fernandes, Rashford, Martial
Subs: Henderson, Pogba, Mata, James, Fosu-Mensah, Ighalo, Pellistri, Matic, Williams, Van de Beek
I love that they've picked that little wanker Herrera to feature on. He's a boring water-carrier at best. At worst, he's a snide foul merchant. I'd love him to have a really shit day today.
Radio coverage is on 5Live but I have turned it off because I am sure it is ahead of CBS
I am going to have to hide my phone....updates show up early
Former United player, Ander Herrera lining up for PSG . Pogba on the bench
Hiya boys
Come on United!!!
They're off from PAris
Going the same way as the 3-1...same again please
We are off
Hopefully a memorable night like last time in PAris
Hiya David and Dave.
I think they're going around the grounds on the telly. Currently at SB
Pogba must be really pissed not playing Paris
YOu're on the telly?
Sevilla go close. Shot in the side netting
The telly is going around the grounds . I'm watching that and UNited on the computer at the same time
Looks like a full slate of EFL games
Pompey 2 up
Cambridge 1-1
Ipswich 1-2 down
LAzio takes the lead vs Dortmund
Dave, great description of United's jerseys. Hilarious
The line up showed two up front..Rash and Mart....neither in the box
Obiwan....doesnt' attack anyone
As things stand ., the Tigers move top of L1 ahead of the Tractor Boys. Glad Pompey is doing well this evening
oooh.....Rash almost there!
Be more aware!!
Please score quickly United so that this Irish plank stops saying Neymar every 17 seconds.
Barrow leading Bolton 3-2. They were miles apart in the pyramid less than ten years ago
Does Red clash with Blue!!
Come on United
I think that's Peter Dreary. He screams every time someone scores
Looked like ferencvaros took the lead in the NOU Camp, but it was correctly disallowed for offside
It's Dreary's mate that's got the Neymar crush.
Oh, close from Di Maria. Stop that.
De Gea did well to turn around a deflected shot from Di Maria , another one of our former players
Still don't like how United got this draw... there were two teams left in the bottom....United and City
United came up and automatically went in this group
What is the difference between United and City!!
I heard it was something to do with United and Liverpool with TV
There must not be any difference between the two Manc teams
PSG go close....TWICE
More PSG pressure . Great cross from MBappe and De Gea did well to block at close range from Kurzawa
Good save from DeGea, but there's a need for your lot to play some of the match in their half now. Not liking this one little bit.
Agreed. Not much difference.. Really ridiculous how the groups were decided. We're in a group of death
United toothless at the moment
Martial and Rashford can't connect
The passes need to be better
Free kick to PSG. Into the wall by PSG
Free kick to the hosts... DiM. or Mrs Neymar to take...Mrs Neymar goes into the wall
Straight into the wall from God's gift to football.
Access about twenty seconds behind.
Former Citeh player, Angelino, gives Leipzig the lead vs Baseksheir, the supposed whipping boys of United's group
Come on United... ATTACK
DiM still laying on the ground.... what a wuss...Now United will get the ball back all the way to De Gea
Is this a month trial, David?
Footmob has that goal alert which I turned off because of that 20 second delay. I wonder why the state of the technology isn't better than that.
I totally agree with you, Steve
Even NBC are behind 5Live coverage....makes no sense
Our opponents on Saturday look equally toothless
Are they at home?
Martial with a chance...curled wide
Dreary SCREEEEEAMMMS his name
I like to see Telles gets the ball over into the box
Martial turns....penalty.... VAR will check
OH! Sevilla nearly take the lead at SB. Shot came off the corner of post and cross bar
PENALTY UNITED. DIALLO CALLED FOR AN ILLEGAL KARATE CHOP. LOOKED SOFT , BUT WE'LL TAKE IT
Wahey! Needless penalty for PSG to give away. I think it will pass VAR.
C'mon Bruno.
DAMN! BRUNO MISSES AGAIN. SAVED THEN CLEARED AWAY
Bruno to take......up he comes.....SAVED
Bloody Hell....Are they going to check for the feet
RETAKEN!!
WOW! IT'S GOING TO BE RETAKEN. NOT SURE WHY. OH! NAVAS WAS OFF HIS LINE. THAT'S WHY HE SAVED IT
G******t. Bruno misses it.
Oh, perfect. Navas was off the line. Too bad blondie.
Another chance...Come on Bruno....ONE NIL!
Bruno again. No skippy nonsense please.
WAY HAY! BRUNO SCORES THIS TIME WITH A WELL PLACED SPOT KICK , SENDING NAVAS THE WRONG WAY
United had that happen against Palace this year
Still hate VAR
Still again with that girly skip. He need Roy Keane to apply an earhole clip.
Moe goals in our group as Leipzig goes two up vs Baseksheir. Lazio does the same vs Dortmund
Who is the PSG Keeper?
Did he play at Barca?
Corner to United
Steve's match on the telly , Rennes vs Krasnodar
That's Navas with a home-dye-job. Bloody stay-at-home activities.
Kaylor Nava s the PSG keeper. Formerly played for Real and is a Costa Rican international
Great cross by Telles....I like that!
To answer you r question, Steve. It said it's a week trial. Not sure if the month was a temporary promotion
I was teasing David. Krasnodar is either the second or third too many Russian entrants to the CL. Totally undeserved to play at this level.
PENALRTY BARCA AND MESSI GIVES THEM THE LEAD WITH A WELL PLACED SPOT KICK
Let me know if I'm next in line for the free trial caper.
Congrats, Dave. Pompey have won 0-2 at the Gils
YIKES! Donny Trump now lead the Tractor Boys 4-1
Come on United... add to your lead
What a bummer!!
Swans tie it up at Coventry
Petr Cech has been named in Chelsea's Premier League squad!!
Former City player, Angelino nearly with a hat-trick for Leipzig as he volleys inches wide from a corner
DiM well offside... De Gea dove anyway...and got the ball anyway
WOW! Chelsea calling him out of retirement. Wonder if he would do better than the current Chelsea Kepa
That looked offside.....finally called
Hate this crap
He is the club's techincal director!
Neymar thinks he 's the chief ref and is deservedly booked for his childishness.
Twanzebe with a great tackle on Mbape
Now Neymar gets a yellow for is yapping!
Never a pen!
No pen given
Good job so far for this ref
Nice. Neymar gets a ticket for mouthyness. He's now one bad tackle from a long cry in the bath.
I guess he thought the challenge from Wasabi on Mbappe was too spicy. I thought it was an excellent challenge
Pompey have won!
The Evil Lions take the lead vs Luton
United player booked for dishing out McTomain poisoning to the PSG players
I keep hoping the rules committee will let the lino flag offsides right away again. I hate that rule letting play continue and waiting for the inevetable.
Ten minutes to go...DiM hits a crossed free kick straight to De Gea
Steve, not sure how the free trials will work in our group. I need to check on the month trial
OH! Kaylor Navas does well to turn around a shot from Bruno off a pass from Telles
Nice hit by Bruno....saved
I'd love a second goal
Navas's gloves look long enough that he could do the watching up in them. But they were long enough to push that ball around the post.
OH! McTomain has a header deflect inches wide of the corner from Telles
ooooh....just wide from bobbling in
ANother corner
That new bloke for you takes a better corner than you've had for a while.
Barca's teenager, Fahti, puts Barca two up off a lobbed pass from Luke De Jong
Agreed, Steve . He's put in some excellent deliveries
Rash breaks... tackled in the box
Put your body in between you and the ball... basics!
Totally agree, Steve.... that's what we need
OH! Nice last ditch tackle by Diallo on Rash or else United would have surely gone two up
Jim Beglin says there's atmosphere in the United match. DUH! That's what happens when there aren't any fans
Come on Ref...blow up for half!
I'm tired also of these finals being scheduled in horrible places just because those countries don't have a prayer of having a team competing at that point. Rotate them from England, to Italy, to France, to Spain, and to Portugal. No more Turkey, Russia, or Azerbaijan.
Saw an article that Lampard didn't rate Pulisic when he first came to the club....because he was an American
A pair of stoppage time minutes
Jim Beglin ia tool. I'd really like to see the back of him.
Agreed.....even Moscow was stupid when United beat Chelsea.... Ended in the middle of the night!
Agreed, Steve. Some of those are ridiculous locations for a CL Final
Carrick is being yelled at for yelling at Ref for not letting Rash back on
1 of 2 added minutes left.
Lamps is a moron. That's a really moronic reason from Lamps
Half time
PSG 0 United 1
Long may it continue
United one up at the half thanks to a twice taken penalty from Bruno. It's 0-0 at the half at SB
United got screwed with that last play... ref called it up on the break
This little attention loving ref is tiring me out. Fortunately there's a break from him.
United go down the tunnel a goal to the good.
I hope the same for the second half
Not that troubled in the first
I hope United don't sit back!
I don't want Ollie to make any changes...for quite a while
Tom is home...I am going to go full screen and broadcast on my TV thru Apple TV
COME ON UNITED!
Cheerio Dave.
What kind of touch on the ball is that? Worthy of a team fine.
OH! De Gea superbly turns around a shot from Mbappe after he cut in off a run
Bloody hell, you should be 2 up and instead there's DeGea called upon to palm away Mbappe's rasping drive.
C'mon United.
Telles called for a foul on Di Maria
The rain has picked up. Proper Manc weather now.
Coutinho puts Barca three up
Agreed Steve. That's more like a home match for us.
Salford now three up vs Struggling Southend.
Really great cross field ball to Martial who loses out to a defender for a corner.
The Terriers take the lad vs the Rams while Rotherham takes the lead at Forest
VAR checking for a penalty for Rennes vs Krasnodar
That looks a stonewall penalty
Miss hit cross from Kurzawa off the bar for PSg then great slide tackle by Obi Wan on Mbappe.
BUGGER! CORNER FROM MBAPPE RESULTS IN AN ERAANT KARATE CHOP FOR AN OG TO TIE IT UP
Chrissakes! All that hard work for nought with Martial's header into his own net. Sorry David.
Meanwhile Rennes took the lead vs Krasnodar from the spot. There looks to be a fair number of fans at the match. Surprised because I'm under the impression that cases are rising in France. I don't get it
Another good slide tackle by Obi Wan on Mbappe of a through ball from Di Maria
I haven't seen Moise Keane's finishing touch, but he's getting chances you can't afford now.
And Mbappe has shifted into a higher gear.
Danger, danger, danger.
Krasnodar ties it up in Rennes
Again, poor from Rashford. Why didn't he shoot? He was looking for help from the off, and I do not understand why.
OH! United nearly scored off a corner. A karate chopped header was just over
Thanks, Steve. It was a cheap goal to concede, but hopeful we can still win this
Not a penalty. Play on. It would have been a nice reply if Rashford had been more composed there.
The Teesiders take the lead at Bristol City
Steve you are spot on about Rash. Too often he looks for a pass when an easy score is on . It can be frustrating to watch
I have not missed Herera and his playacting since he left the league.
Cross from Neymar out for a corner. De Gea sliced in the box earlier
Pogba about to come on. Why not VDB. I'm worried about our chances now
Agreed about Ander Herrera. Glad he left United
As experienced as he is, Rashford is still young. Ole would do well to bring in a true goalscorer that would mentor him through this stage of his career.
Pogba? Only if he's got a hard-on to prove something to his old chums. Otherwise, no.
WOW ! Fernacvaros wins a penalty in the Nou Camp and Pique sent off for denial of a goal scoring opportunity
Pogba for Alex Telles which means Shaw will move to left back. Hate that change
Telles had a very good day. Sorry to see him sacrificed for Pogba.
Alright. Walk the walk for once, Paul.
Ferencvaros score from the spot and the lead is trimmed to 3-1
Why hasn't Pique retired already? Barca are such a mess.
Sevilla nearly take the lead at SB . Spectacular volley off a corner inches over
Haaland scores with a rocket in the upper 90 and now Dortmund trail Lazio 2-1
Close from Rashford. Navas might have saved that from going in. Better.
Steve, I agree regarding Pique. Despite that I think it should have been a booking under the new rules because the foul was in the box. Only a red if outside the box since a penalty is a scoring opportunity
Do you know what's wrong with Pogba's arm? Or is that some NBA fashion that he's started to sport.
That was a good save from Navas, but not good fumbling the corner
Pique Ramos is as suspect a central pairing as I can name at the moment.
I missed what was on Pogba's arm. I would bet on fashion statement knowing Pogba
Wasabi with a soft booking for United , but too spicy for the Spanish ref's taste
Agreed, Steve. That partner ship is more designed to end players careers than saving goals
He's been wearing something on his arm for a few appearances. It looks like a neoprene sleeve like LeBron wears.
Lazio takes a 3-1 lead vs Dortmund
Looks bad for Shaw. Who would replace him?
Evil Lions go two up vs Luton
Canaries take the lead vs Brum
Forest ties it up vs Rotherham
Top vs Bottom as the Reading Railroad takes the lead vs Wycombe
Wish Pogba would spend more time being dedicated to football than fashion and endorsements. Not Shaw who would be the replacement left back
Rafina for Ander Herrera anf Colin Dagba for Florenzi as Thomas Tuchel makes a double change
OH! Great save by Navas from Rash
Ten man Barca takes a 4-1 lead
Long range powerful shot from Neymar blocked by De Gea
Rashford's day doesn't get better. He had the whole goal to shoot at, with Navas out of position and he hits it tamely to Navas.
Pogba's sleeve is unexplained, but he is looking at a no-fun-league fine for wearing a white one with an Adidas logo which wasn't authorized. I think it's a NBA fashion shout out and very, very silly.
Moise Kean wins a PSG corner
Danilo booked for a foul on a United counter
Important but routine save for DeGea off a Neymar shot.
Danilo mugs Fred and is rightly cautiioned.
Agreed about Rash. He has too many of these types of days. Some days a brilliant finisher and other matches like this
Another double PSG Sarabia for Di MAria and Bakker on for Kurzawa. That's four PSG changes . Are they allowing five in the CL and EL?
5 subs in the CL this season?
Pogba showing his stupidity. A fine would be deserved. Will be glad when we see the back of him
WAY HAY ! BRILLAINT FINISH FROM RASH JUST OUTSIDE THE BOX OFF THE INSIDE OF THE POST. NICE FIRST TIME FINISH TO GIVE UNITED A 1-2 LEAD
Finally. It's not been his night so far, but Rashford finally comes good with a pinpoint shot.
2-1.
Rash's first CL goal since the key goal in this same stadium ion that famous nigh two seasons ago
Rash has made up for all those poor misses, especially if we end up with tree points
2 more minutes plus probably 4-5 added to go. Hold firm United.
Neymar hits a shot wide. But he really had a lot of space so that's bad.
Moise Kean booked for PSG
A quintet of stoppage time minutes. That's a lot considering the number of stoppages
3 minutes added. That's a gift. I thought it would be quite a few more.
Sorry. My eyes are playing tricks on me. Three is fine by me
Into the final minute,
