Its a brilliant comeback and they shoed great character but I disagree, I dont think Barcelona even played near their potential. Their passing was very sloppy at times and all their goals came from defensive or referee mistakes and not great passing moves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of diving from the Barca players is disgraceful and why wouldn't they when refs continually buy it. The mental thing is Suarez was already on a yellow for simulation tonight. Maybe that influenced the referee's thought process. I mean, who in their right mind would dive to win a penalty in the last minute of a must win Champions League game which is potentially worth tens of millions of Euros if they are already on a yellow card for simulation? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 as much as i actually like barcelona and im enjoying the hate...their official twitter account bringing back the #PrayforParis is incredibly poor choice, much like how every club has their share of idiot fans they also seem to employ dickheads to run their social media accounts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barca get big "decisions" time and time again. i still rememeber Chelsea getting about 5 genuine penalty calls waved away. It isn't even subtle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coda Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 If you show any weakness Suarez will exploit it. U wot m8? They're terrified of even implying he's a cheat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 On the slow mo when Suarez dived (second one) for the penalty on the way down he screams, then arms in air, the on his head then into his throat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czechlad Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The MLS just went back and gave a player a suspension for a foul that led to a penalty which turned out not to be a foul. Why can't Uefa do this? Suarez's penalty was clearly not a penalty. Even Neymar's was very dubious. Neymar knew he could go down and did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) sure Suarez was praised by idiot English commentators when he cheated vs us at Anfield a few seasons back the man is an absolute cretin Edited March 8, 2017 by Zatman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 You have to ask why the defender is looking at Suarez rather than the ball and even contemplating putting an arm on him, knowing he's a cheat. He's giving the ref a decision to make, which is always bad when you're away to the big teams. So naive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 when he did that in a liverpool shirt every other week our media labelled it as clever play its not recently that the blokes become a cheat its gone, its not coming back, we let it go years back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC they tried it once with Arsenal but there was all kinds of threats of legal action as there was "contact" so UEFA dropped it. That's the problem.

Zatman Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Its the problem with Barcelona after all these years that you cant watch a game and admire their brilliant players without having to watch the horrible cynical side of the game. I would love to applaud them for a brilliant 6-1 victory but you just cant after that also as they never showed a replay I think Mascherano chopped Di Maria from behind when he was one on one with the keeper near the end 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
