Blue Moon moaning over the referees decision. This is a big joke. We were simply playing against 12 players in the first half and they couldn't score more than one goal, inspite of all the help. They are lucky that the ref did not award us a penalty for the foul of Mane inside the box and I'm sure the ref did not ask Otamendi to pass the ball to Firminho. The city fans have slowly turned into Wenger Mark II.
Sorry mate, but objectively speaking they have a lot to feel aggrieved over. If the decisions over 2 legs had been a bit different, they would likely be going through.
- Mo was offside for his goal in the 1st leg.
- Robbo lucky not to concede a pen in 1st leg.
- Goal disallowed for contentious offside in 2nd leg.
Any one of these calls going the other way could have had major consequences on the outcome of the tie.
That said, we did the business and have now beaten the Champions elect in 3 of 4 games this season. Even the 5-0 loss could have been much different.
No one thought we'd be in the semifinals 9 months ago. Yet here we are, and we are getting better every week. Klopp is building something special, and the way we play will have many top players on alert. We have become a desirable destination for top level talent again, and that is very exciting!! Whatever happens in the semifinals and beyond, the future is bright!!!
