Well we are always interesting!
It's still a great performance and result. But obviously we have given them a sniff when it should have been all over.
Lovren was having a really good game, but he always has a mistake in him. He got away with the first one, booting it off one of them and nearly back into our own net, but not the second.
I thought the penalty was very soft.
I was pissed off at Salah going off at the time - not cos I thought it might turn the game, but just cos taking off a player who's on a hat trick in European Cup semi-final seems really likely to piss them off. Fair play to Mo - great pro, laughed it off, but I don't see the need to risk pissing him off with Real etc sniffing round him. As it happened it also did affect the game - our attacking threat went from huge to tiny almost as soon as he went off. Shouldn't have mattered though if we'd defended better.
Shouts out to Milner and Firmino for MOTM candidates, but obviously it has to be Mo for 2 absolutely gorgeous goals.
We are still on course for the final - fancy us to score over there and then that should be that. So not too pissed off. But naturally we aren't doing it the easy way!
