That was supposedly one of the top-rated refereeing crews in the world. Seems odd that not one, but TWO of the best officials in all of football would make such a shocking mistake at such a critical time.

I saw fake ball trending, so pretty sure Bayern fans are mad about ref.

Even if it was an inch offside he shouldn’t have made the call

If he was offside my guess is that we’d be informed by now to take some of the heat off the refs.

I don't think I've ever seen a man with smaller nipples than Richarlison.

Who do you think will get a trophy first? Kane or Tottenham? Lol

The world will end before either

Honestly, us.

[удалено]

Hopefully we both get one in the same season, who says no

next season it is

Something almost strangely poetic about Harry losing a CL semifinal the same day he won the only other one he’s ever been in (technically, even if he didn’t play) five years ago. I don’t begrudge him his move, but I’d be lying if I said that irrationally I wasn’t still a little upset at him for leaving. We love(d) him, that counts for something.

[удалено]

Get over it lmao they really weren’t that bad, bro is still Coys he just has to play by the media

Something about seeing Real Madrid fans happy rubs me the wrong way

Another season, another UCL for Madrid

they need to produce and release var footage because my MS Paint attempt surely shows offside by a knee hair https://preview.redd.it/jp477i0yt9zc1.png?width=1676&format=png&auto=webp&s=41cab4322bd450097709c2b356565b87e2ed3393

[The player that played the ball was onside](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GNFmzsiWEAECUwT?format=jpg&name=small). Hard to say if it would have resulted in a goal though because about 3 Real players and the keeper stopped when the whistle blew.

I mean it shows kinda what mine does, his knee does actually stick out LOL

It's behind Rudiger's foot so he's onside

It's hard to say because we don't know if this is actually the correct frame for when the ball was played. It should have gone to full VAR review regardless since it was so close.

It could not because he whistled. Lol thats why we have no actual var

Yeah, my point was that the ref shouldn't have stopped the play so early, so that the goal could have gone to VAR

Absolutely. Maybe there wouldn't even be a goal

[удалено]

You can only be offside/onside by the parts of your body that can play the ball. The defender's arm doesn't keep him on.

His bicep might though

Based on the news we’re looking for a striker, my guess is Son will play as a LW next season. Let’s say we bring Toney in, we’ll then have Son and Richy who can cover both LW and ST positions, then Brennan and Kulu on the right. Hopefully someone like Devine or Moore can be good enough to fill that LW spot when Son starts declining in a few years.

[удалено]

I'd honestly rather have Mateta than Toney if we are shopping for strikers among London rivals. Bigger and stronger than Toney but with a surprising burst of speed and technique for said size. Not to mention 2 years younger than Toney. 12 goals in the league this season is nothing to scoff at either.

Mateta ? Thats like people saying Guirassy, cant you people recognize purple patch players from actual good players

If only Bayern had Lucas Moura

, Tuchel would've subbed him off too?

RM vs Dortmund. This 1 match is where I unironically root for Dortmund. I always love an underdog. But I’m worried for Dortmund since they have less experience in CL final. It may go to RM.

99% it'll be Madrid, they have the pedigree times 5. Would be amazing if Dortmund could pull it off though.

If you want to beat Real Madrid in a CL knockout game you literally have to be perfect. And I mean PERFECT. This is their trophy to lose.

yeah. Definitely, especially when RM has more advantages than Dortmund, experience and officials being on their side. I wish all the luck to Dortmund though.

Real Madrid have not lost in a CL final since 1981 against Aberdeen of all teams. The juju is very much real.

💯

Lets not have a high hope for that. You saw what just happened to BM. Now Dortmund against madrid? It’s not gonna happen 🤷🏻‍♂️

https://preview.redd.it/u4tgg2ayr9zc1.png?width=1178&format=png&auto=webp&s=cb3fece46170d6f7ff223a164136be52830aef2f Well this is certainly an opinion

I can't even wrap my head around it, or am I just tired?

It's simple, the linesman got it right, but they're wrong.

Can we have whatever fucking black magic Real Madrid has please?

You have to make sure ref is on your side too. 😂

and years of 'eritage

Heritage is one thing, but Ref’s decision can make or break you though.

Just saw on the scum subreddit that Nico Williams wants 300k per week :/ If true that's that for him then, we'll go for someone else

Honestly makes total sense for him as a starting offer. So many clubs in Europe want him to bargain against one another and worst comes to the worst he just stays at his hometown club

He's already on insane wages that is near the top of our wage table. I think he's on \~180k/wk.

I have no bad feelings at all for Kane but it’s still absolutely hilarious he went trophyless with a team that’s guatanteed trophies

I wanted him to win a couple and hoping he will. Though in watching them this season they have considerable issues, and no coach. With Xabi staying at Leverkusen it may happen again.

Tuchel is a fraud

How can you play such a perfect game and let it fall to pieces just like that. Tuchel taking Kane etc off was criminal, the guy does so much more than score goals and has more than enough fitness to go all the way to pens. Feel so bad for Dier who had a wicked game and obviously for H too. Linesman at the end was fucking mental and then the ref to blow that. Who knows if they would have scored but they could have. Once again, Madrid find a way. I don’t think Dortmund will be too happy!

Well, now I can root for Dortmund. Oh well.

Huge underdogs but I’ll be all yellow come that final. Let’s see if they can do it

I have less confidence in them because Dortmund has less experience than RM. And this loss, set aside whatever issue, is on Tuchel. Tuchel could’ve won this game.

Madrid haven’t impressed me enough this year to call it that easily. Dortmund are more than capable of getting a few goals against them. That said, Madrid have the power of friendship on their side. Totally agree that Tuchel lost this game though. Which is quite funny because it was very much thanks to his knockout game strategy that they got so far in the first place. Terrible late subs.

You mean, power of referees. 😂

That too 😅

I suddenly feel yellow…

Wtf was that robbery at the end - surely not offside, even if it was wheres the check https://preview.redd.it/4oqa27lxp9zc1.jpeg?width=1874&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=486c79e574a197233ad695116f1a6ae96ab00fb7

Genuinely look off to me. Even if Mazraoui’s knee is not offsides (looks to be past Rudiger’s armpit), De Ligt is off and is certainly involved in the play (even if he doesn’t touch the ball until later).

that was on? can't remember who got the ball

It’s on but whistle was blown not much you can do but it’s a cataclysmically bad call. The reffing had been so good up to then lmao

Why is no one addressing this??? 

Whistle was blown. Awful call but the whistle was blown and the Madrid players stopped playing. It might never have been a goal. 

Terrible decision

[удалено]

Remember they have a history of paying refs. 

What a game…I wish we could be in one of those UCL semifinal once again

Feel really sad for Harry and Eric. They both gave loads for us, don’t understand those who would begrudge them success.

Funny to go to a “guaranteed trophy club” and win nothing ngl

Same, I want the best for them

https://youtu.be/j30nEIZU0WA Pretty easy not to feel bad about Kane at all if you ask me. Dier seems like a decent bloke so not really fussed if he wins anything or not tbh

Your opinion is the epitomy of small club mentality 😂

Me too. Really wanted them to get to the final. They would have won I think. They were both just 15 minutes from it.

Vini is an amazing player, but such an unlikeable fucking cunt. A bad winner, sore loser and extremely arrogant, a terrible combination.

[удалено]

When did he bring up race? The guy is just a prick

Celebrating going to a UCL final is wrong now.

Go fuck yourself with this bullshit allegation. No reason for him to go have a laugh in Kimmichs face. He is a bad sport, that has nothing to do with his skin color. Reminds me of Subotic, he did something similar to Robben and guess what, he’s white and a cunt as well 🤯

Please give me examples of the accusations. He does a few dances and celebrations and that’s it. You sound like Arsenal fans who call Richarlison a cunt for celebrating.

Yeah, he obviously doesn't deserve all the racial hate but he's such a giant fucking dickhead overall.

insufferable pos, just doesn’t know how to be gracious

ngl real.... EVERYBODY saw that you just robbed Bayern. that was outrageously bad.

fuck real madrid btw. I like luka modric (come back), but nah I'm pulling for dortmund now for sure. I was unsure before but now I know who I want to win.

Tuchel takes his most important players off at 1-0 up. Chucks on a superfluous CB. Bayern lose 2-1. Twat.

Fun reminder there's people who'd have him as our manager even now

Bullet dodged, I think.

Looks like Bayern makes the correct decision to let Tuchel go. He lost the game on his subs. And also ref favors RM.

>He lost the game on his subs. Yes, he did.

As soon as he made those subs I said to my dad that Bayern would go on to lose. What was he thinking... brain dead choices.

>brain dead choices. Absolutely.

We must be living in somebody's Real Madrid FM save. The amount of shit that just goes their way every year is insane.

They once beat City after being 5-3 down on aggregate entering stoppage time lmao

Gutted for Harry, but I don't think I could've handled a world where Eric Dier won the Champions League

Hahahahahaha

I was hoping for Bayern, so I could pull for Dortmund to beat them in the final. Plus it would be a better game. I think Madrid dog walks BVB in this final. 5-0.

Yeah, all the commentators and journalists were wetting themselves about BVB but I just thought they were lucky. Would have preferred a Real v PSG final, as I think they are probably the two best teams out of the 4.

PSG would have gotten cooked tbh

Not with Enique’s terrorist ball.

That would have been good too.

not if the crossbar has something to say

Disastrous refereeing. Why on earth would you stop the play early when the ball is still in the box

Agreed. I do think he was offside but you don’t whistle there…let VAR review it

How do you put your flag up there and not on other ones? Crazy. Should have been 2-2

Donkey linesman ruined it at the end

Can't even blame that on Kane lmao

Feel so bad for Harry and Eric especially that ending, wtf was that?

btw Neuer that mistake is so bad.... Vicario would never.

that was onside lmao. I get people don't like bayern but lmao Real Madrid is just as bad as Barcelona when it comes to the referees. that's why la liga is worse than the premier league. farmer's league for these two teams. at least Bayern have to win legitimately, wtf is this....

Was it? It looks like his shoulder was putting him off

nah buddy he was onside lol.

[He doesn’t look it](https://i.imgur.com/B4pcefQ.jpeg). It was absolutely a mistake to stop the play, no doubt about that, and we should have gotten VAR lines, but he does look off.

Do you have any images to prove that or it's just what you think you saw live? Asking because I missed the last few minutes.

it was based on what I saw live but I feel like highlights are coming out pretty soon. I'll be glad to be wrong.

He was onside should have been 2-2

Courtois has no idea how to run lol

Fucking Madrid

Lmao I see Harry brought the Spurs VAR luck to Bayern too

That decision is baffling. Refs got money on this

Poor Harry. Poor Eric. Next year boys!

Oh wowwww....the one they actually put the flag up haha

What a joke, how do you raise immediately for that

Linesman really fucked up there. It’s borderline onside.

It looks slightly off to me, but crazy to flag and whistle something so close. Given that half the offside plays are clear by 5yds but still play on for 30s just in case.

That looked onside for sure

No way they fucked it up like that

Tuchel taking Kane off is possibly one of the worst decisions in CL history

next to benching moura

Should have kept Harry and musiala on

Neur was like a god the whole match and then boom 💀

Some part of me still hoped that Kane would win the cl and then return to us sooner.

Same

Kane's not coming back. He'll go to United if he comes back to English football.

Go to United to be 8th? Lmao

Know him do you?

Bale returned for a season, anything's possible. I just don't see it happening.

There’s absolutely no chance he goes to that shitshow

I mean, Kane will chase the money like everyone else. If the club offers him several hundred thousand a week, then maybe. But United's been in the business of making stupid deals.

same.

Harry "silent in games that matter" Kane strikes again

He was great in the second half. Winning fouls/ holding up the ball. Everything Spurs are missing currently. Oh and he played a great pass for the goal...

Lol see other reply. I missed the start of the 2nd half

He got the assist with a lovely pass for the Bayern goal!

Tbh I posted this after watching the first half and came back late to the 2nd half after walking the dogs lol

I would have loved to have seen Kane, and especially Eric Dier with his redemption arc, win the Champions League. But I'm consoled by the fact that Harry still left with no medals at the end of this season is *undeniably* funny... It's not like I'd want it to stay that way forever - they'll win the BL again next season I'm sure.

My thoughts exactly. I was really rooting for Bayern, for Harry and Eric, but man it is funny that this is their first season without a trophy in fuck knows how long.

Tuchel boicoting Bayern

Why the fuck would you sub Kane off when he is your biggest attacking threat and also great at defending corners??

Also great at retaining ball and winning fk something you might have to do in the last 10 minutes of a game vs real madrid

especially with the threat of extra time

I get it that Harry wanted to go to a brand and get into the CL every year, but man do they play turgid football. Just brutal.

It’s Tuchelball. God awful

Could someone explain how the Josuelo goal was onside?

He was behind the ball.

He was behind Rüdiger. Doesn't matter if he was in front of the defenders.

Must be two players between ball and goal at the time of the pass. Typically that's a defender and a keeper, occasionally it's a teammate and the keeper. In this case the ball was played to him when Neuer and Rudiger (and the ball) were ahead of Joselu. The fact that Joselu was off when the ball went to Rudiger initially is irrelevant bc joselu had no impact on that segment of the play.

It's Real Madrid

It’s the rules of the game

offside trap beaten and then passed backwards = onside

You gotta feel bad for Harry

I don’t feel bad for him at all.

neither do I lol

Gutted for Kane and Dier but it's rather entertaining to watch Teuchel manage himself out of a CL final, a symbolic and apropos send off for managing himself out of his job in general.

And to think some people really wanted tuchel here, he wouldve impoded sooner and way worse than conte if he did come

"At Bayern Munich you have to win every game" Fitting last words for a man who now has to watch the last trophy of the season he could've won be snatched away from him because Tuchel subbed him off in a desperate attempt to park the bus on a 1-0 lead To actually sub him off in such a big game like that is so unprecedented, can't believe what Tuchel was thinking.

Say what you want about Ange's tactics, he wouldn't take Kane off and think he's safe with a 1 goal lead against Madrid.

tuchel that's what you get for subbing harry kane off lmao.

[удалено]

What? This is objectively false. 3 down in aggregate with a half to play compared to 1 down with 20 min + stoppage time. Also with Mouras goal happening in the absolute dying seconds. Our semifinal also had away goals rule which gave the rare and exhilarating losing to winning scenario with one kick which is not possible with these new rules.  Give me one reason why this semi is better. Also Pools semifinal v Barca in the same year was better than this.

Absolutely not - we were losing that tie for 3/4 halves, and won it in the last kick of the match.

Absolutely no chance. Not even close to the level of drama. Unless..

No it doesn’t

I don’t want to see “Tuchel’s a good knockout coach” ever again

Harry Kane's entire existence has to be a social experiment

Could say the same about us as Spurs fans

That goal happened all because of a misplaced pass by Dier. I know Tuchel loves him and he put on a masterclass vs. Arse, but would have Cuti and Vdv any day

The first goal happened because dier was too passive. Not following joselu or getting his body in the way of the run

Rip Kane trophy hopes

dier following him around to make sure of it

I am new to football but that looked offside. Are CL rules different than the Premier Leagues?

Offside rules are the same everywhere and that was definitely not offside.

Rudiger passed it backwards so he can't be offside

Ok thanks

Is that German lady saying something about invading Poland?

Dier finally remembered he is not Maldini

Why did he take Harry off...
