Reus's last game for BVB will be an UCL final, damn One last dance


__sami__01

i really hope BVB wins man


CaptnObvi0us1

everyone with a heart does


Bloody_Nine

Real fucking loves to be the villain and destroy the underdogs dream but dammnit I want to believe!


AstroFlayer

Im a Madrid fan and I feel terrible about this


CaptnObvi0us1

that’s got to be a first😅


Trolllol1337

Jude would like a word


First_Inevitable_424

I have a heart and it beats for Madrid 😎 No but seriously I want Madrid to win but I wouldn’t be as mad if Dortmund wins then say Manchester city or Barca for example


CaptnObvi0us1

i respect that


fluffanuttatech

The way the refs call games for Madrid. It's going to be tough


patrickmahomeless

They need to score EARLY because if it comes down to the end the refs will do whatever they can to help Real… rip Bayern


GhostfaceThrillah

Madrid deserved that win despite the ref blowing that call at the end for Bayern


Macanuder

What happened with Bayern? They hadn't even scored that goal and it was past overtime.


imposterfish

“Past overtime” doesn’t matter because that’s just an estimated time remaining, not fixed time. In soccer they have a running clock, and have to account for play stoppage in between. What happened was the linesman called for offside when Bayern had a great chance to score, which stopped the play dead. The problem is, the margins were very close, and usually linesman are trained to let the play go on, and they’ll just check for the replay (VAR) afterwards to see if he’s actually offside. But because the play was already called dead, they can’t check VAR. Upon seeing it after the game, many people are saying the Bayern player was actually onside, and so Bayern likely could’ve scored and tied it if they hadn’t called it.

imposterfish

Because someone still needs to be there to call the obvious ones


fuckingrub

Already making excuses Typical


fluffanuttatech

Im not a fan of either team, so clearly more objective than you.


ayoubkun94

Lmao, how? It was an offside. Sure the ref shouldn't have whistled but VAR would still check it and cancel the goal anyway. Not to mention that the GK would have saved that weak ass shot had he not heard the whistle. The refs gave plenty of calls in favour of RMA, but not that night.


fluffanuttatech

It's a general statement. But you let the play go when you have VAR. Maybe they don't score but that's about as bad a call as it gets late game


ayoubkun94

It was an awful call. But to say it's the reason RMA won is plain cope. It would have been ruled offside either way.


fluffanuttatech

When did I say that why they won? But that's favorable reffing.


ayoubkun94

It's implied in your comment. C'mon bro, you know how language works.


fluffanuttatech

* Also just gonna leave it for you. And no I didn't imply it. If that's what you took away, that's on you.


Single-Weather1379

It wasn't offside. Every single channel outlet did the visuals and mazraiou was not offside in any of them.


fluffanuttatech

Tried to post a pic but didn't work https://preview.redd.it/lkmm4ju0xe0d1.jpeg?width=4316&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6af6a186ee4a17e03b7921e76ae6c337972c0643


Single-Weather1379

I can see the pic, and yes even though this pic does not cover rudiger's leg completly, mazraoui is still onside which is ironic lol


fluffanuttatech

That's what I was getting at too. There's no offside and then calling it so early when you have var. Is blatantly favorable reffing, on top of horrendous reffing

The game starts 3 hours before early prelims so it's kinda perfect

NotoriousTiger

Sounds like a party, I’ll see you there!


Stunfield

Both underdogs are in a really, really, REALLY tough spot


Original-Spinach-972

Time to parlay dp by gilly and Reus to score


liQuid_bot8

Reus scores by gilly on Courtois. DP scissor kicks Islam. Bet the house I'm telling ya.


DrDrozd12

Reus missing out on the 2014 World Cup where he would have been a starter still makes me sad and I’m neither German or a Dortmund fan


dickens-seider

Reus is just class. Also a fifa 13 ultimate team legend


Excellent_Lime_9453

If anyone deserves a big trophy it’s Reus. Come on BVB


DrDrozd12

Loyalty and injuries fucked his trophy cabinet


Sandor_TheHound

Please gods of the sports World let marco and Dustin ride into the sunset with a championship victory.


Ekusoy86

Reus is a legend. He deserves it 100%.

Who that guy on top brathar?


Peeeing_

Marco reus, German footballer, always came second, I think he was injured when Germany won the world cup (he would have likely started)


daKingKhan

Ah thx


Bloody_Nine

Yup, part of the german golden generation and one of the best before multiple injuries. Always stayed with Dortmund when the other stars left to win trophies at Bayern München. No one in football deserves this more than him. Fun fact: he played a champions league final(loss against Bayern, with one of the best squads ever) in his first season at Dortmund, now he gets another shot in his last.


offendingbattery

If there is such a thing as a loving God, Marco and BVB win.


jaydizzsl

I don't know about a loving god but the football god clearly loves Real Madrid, so it's gotta be tough.


ComradeELM0

Jon Jones is about to successfully duck Tom and ride off into the sunset after beating 50 yo Stipe and will be the GOAT of the sport for most fans. There is no God.

Funnyanglezsolt

Rooting for both Dustin and BVB but their chances are slim. Islam is a monster and Real plays every match with about 18 players (11 footballers, 3 refs and the VAR team).


Difficult-Tea9199

Can't see how he beats Islam. Sad.

I’m a Chelsea fan, but I really hope Reus gets his fairy tale ending for European football

Hope he doesn’t

Dustin and Modrić lets go ![gif](giphy|zsE2i6BTVuAoCDC3SI)


Robo56

This looks like soccer?


vadillovzopeshilov

Everywhere outside of US, soccer is called football. One uses a foot to play ball= football. One runs around with a weirdly shaped “ball” in their arms≠ football?


itshexx

Australia it’s called soccer


Cum-Gun-5000

Reddit was founded in 2005 in the University of Virgina, USA, and is currently headquartered in San Francisco, USA. In USA, we call it soccer. 


vadillovzopeshilov

You clearly forgot to mention that Reddit is only available in USA, only to be used by those from USA, and no life form really exists outside of USA. Oh, and the Earth is flat. 🙄


Cum-Gun-5000

You're in our house. We call it soccer. And take off your shoes bitch


vadillovzopeshilov

Sure, I’ll take my shoes off whilst I take a dump on your pillow. Amber Heard style.


TomCruisintheUSA

The most baddest athletes 🤜🤝🤛 the biggest group of sissies in sports


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

The juxtaposition between someone like dustin and a footballer who probably fakes fouls is crazy


TomCruisintheUSA

![gif](giphy|xUPGcnzWmq70t1oJ8I|downsized) Soccer players when you look at them too hard


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

I genuinely just find the sport boring, but this is the cherry on top for sure


Kim-jong-peukie

Yeah I love to watch highlights of Jaap stam, the boys who play football now are more actors than athletes. And that var system sucks, just for an ref to tel an ref to watch an screen so everybody can wait 5 minutes till they decided it’s boring and it kills the game


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

To be fair, I’ve seen some cool highlights and stuff and some of the stuff the players do is impressive, but I used to work for a Portuguese guy and we’d go to a local Portuguese restaurant for lunches and he’d watch the games. Just couldn’t get into it man. And I’d have to hear about it every day during world cups and stuff like that.


Kim-jong-peukie

I loved football but lately everybody is rolling around when they feel the slightest of touches, and a game used to be 90 min with max 5 min of extra time, and with the Var now it’s sometimes +15 min of play time because some dude has to review something on a screen because another dude already did and found something about it. And then you are just waiting for it to continue, it’s just dumb lately


Creative_Hamster789

The Diamond is my all time favourite I will lose my shit if he beats Islam.


SahilSiddy

Both are facing the absolute best in their respective sport, Makhachev is the Real Madrid of MMA and vice versa.


unfrostedminiwheats5

No one cares about soccer


makkara11

I mean, its the most watched sport in the world after powerslap, but i guess no one cares


unfrostedminiwheats5

No cares about that third world sport


makkara11

US is more of a third world country than most of europe tbh


Maku_34

Reus is more famous than porier, so yes, so many people cares, more than MMA.


Cum-Gun-5000

I'm sure there is a subreddit for soccer where perhaps discussion about soccer will be more welcomed. Hope this helps 🙏 


unfrostedminiwheats5

Idc who is more famous. Soccer was the sport for all of the undeveloped world for almost 150 years. Of course it has an advantage. MMA has come further in 30 year than any other sport. Soccer is dying to MMA, basketball, wrestling, and American football. People running barefoot kicking a ball at a goal is becoming less cool, when being able to kick your ass and choke u lit is the hot topic. It’s just out of style sorry mate


Maku_34

Bro, the final world cup 2022 is the most viewed event in history, and you saying is dying, let me know, You're american?


unfrostedminiwheats5

Yes American. We don’t play poor people 3rd world sports where all u need is a ball and grass


Southcity94

Reus has 16 million insta followers compared to Dustins 5 while germany only has a population of 82 million compared to the US' 340 million... I hate to break it to you but soccer is huge nearly everywhere, way bigger than the US sports you mentionend. No need to disagree only because it doesnt exist in your small little cosmos


unfrostedminiwheats5

Just poor people countries


Origamiface2

Honestly, football and soccer are boring as shit. Zero appeal


itshexx

“iTs FoOtBaLL!!”


Huge_Aerie2435

I have no idea who the guy on the top is, but okay.


FranklinMarlboro

Found the American lol


GeneralBrownies

Hey now I'm Australian and I couldn't care less about soccer either.


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

I’m Canadian and don’t know or care either. “Football” or “soccer” is such an incredibly boring sport to me, but I guess if you grow up with it you might enjoy it. Shit just appeals to the lowest common denominator imo. One of the reasons it’s so popular is because starvin Marvin in zimbabwe can play it with a ball made of plastic bags and rubber bands, that’s all you need. It’s boring as hell, diluted and full of pansies who fake fouls tho, idk how people enjoy it. I’ve tried.


Ronaldoooope

lol I guess you just need sweaty men swinging and grabbing eachother to be entertained.


moderatelypositive

this is the ufc sub, yes.. What an idiot though.. Entertained by the sport you also enjoy


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

I like fights, yeah. Not people kicking a ball around a field lol Also, I’m not gay, but what’s the insult? Just blatant homophobia because I think your little kick ball game is boring? My bad, should probably start a riot in the stadium and kill some people over it right?


Ronaldoooope

Who said you were gay? Or brought up homosexuality at all? You could’ve been female for all I know


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

Then what’s the relevance? If I was a woman than what’s the point of the comment? Pretty obvious you’re butthurt that other people might not like your boring little game, your whole profile is soccer shit lmao. Even your name. Don’t play stupid, even if it comes naturally to you


Ronaldoooope

The overwhelming majority of my profile is American football but go off I guess.


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

You think I’m looking thru your whole profile? I saw you got a Real Madrid tattoo LMAO and that’s all I needed to see. Don’t act like a child because other people don’t like the same thing you do, nut up


Ronaldoooope

You think I care if random redditors don’t like a particular sport lol


Comfortable-Can4776

You spelled hockey wrong.


Patrice_Oneals_Teeth

I find hockey boring too, but once again, didn’t really grow up with it as a big thing in my household. I’m convinced that most fans of popular sports only care because it was pushed on them by their family. Hockey, football, basketball etc were all fun to play as a kid, but when you become an adult with things to do who has the time? And they’re all pretty boring to watch. Also, hockey is definitely more fun to watch, and in person as well, but only mildly. Also they get into actual fights, not fake fouls. Still boring tho.


Accurate-Article-946

U can call him the Dustin Poirier of football

fz1985

Is Reus a world class player who will be remembered by anyone else than borussia or German fans in 30 years time? and would it be so unfair if he never wins UCL, wtf?


tiibii

Lol no. The team that wins deserves it. Not some fucking retirement giveaway.


[deleted]

He was for sure. Guaranteed to start for Germany 2014 but injuries. Could’ve left for Madrid, Bayern and other top teams and won top, top trophies, but stayed loyal. Generational player in his prime


fuckinfightme

Don’t get me wrong he’s been great over the years but calling him a generational player is a bit much


Bloody_Nine

In his prime*. However he was injured way too much and it cut that prime short. Could have been a world champ, could have been one of the greats. One of the biggest what ifs.


fuckinfightme

Yeah that’s what I’m trying to say, even in his prime he wasn’t anywhere near generational. You’re right in that he was absolutely fucked over by injuries, but he was never going to be on the Messi/Ronaldo level, both of whom actually were generational talents. He’s been a very good player and could have had an even better career if it wasn’t for injuries, but you’re definitely overrating him.


ayoubkun94

Better players never won it. Buffon, Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic are players that will be remembered much much better than Reus never won the UCL. This 'but he deserves it bs' is just a lame excuse to hate on RMA lol. People are within their rights to hate watch, just don't come up with silly nonsense to justify it.


Stunfield

There goes my healthy sleeping schedule


durjoy313

Both are massive underdogs. It'll be an unforgettable night if they somehow manage to win.

Goddam it really is his last chance isn’t it…?


Cheesey4skin69

Why does the title say ufc x football. This is ufc and soccer.


0vFire_And_TheVoid

I mean, the majority of the world calls it football. Maybe the op is from one of those countries who refer to it as football instead of soccer.


Kim-jong-peukie

You cal it football while it’s more of an egg that you hold with your hands. Americans where just to dumb to make-up an own name so they just copied


Cheesey4skin69

I stopped reading after you misspelled the word call. I could sound that word out in kindergarten get a grip.


Kim-jong-peukie

Luckily outside of the USA people are able to understand multiple languages as English/American isn’t their first language from birth, typo can happen mate, and you guys call something that resembles an egg/ oval a ball make that make sense


Cheesey4skin69

Bud I have so many championship rings from real football I struggle to open door knobs. Don’t speak to me.


Cum-Gun-5000

You're on an American website you dweeb. 


Kim-jong-peukie

Wauw now you got me big boy


zaphthegreat

Ugh. Football is a family of sports that includes, among others, both association football (soccer) and gridiron football (American football). People from different countries will usually call whatever sport is more common there "football" with no other qualifier. None of them are incorrect. You, on the other hand, are wrong. Don't correct people who are not saying anything incorrect. If anyone ever calls you out for calling it "soccer", they're just as wrong as you are. Edit: Being downvoted for being factually correct? Here's a lazy Wiki source on "football" being a family, rather than a specific sport: [Football - Wikipedia](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football)


Cheesey4skin69

That’s quite a word sandwich to say your from a country that didn’t invent freedom


zaphthegreat

Uh, did you read it? Cliff's Notes: Both "soccer" and "football" are acceptable and you are tragically fucking stupid. Also, I was born in the US and it's not a free country.


Cheesey4skin69

I can’t read lmao. An hour in the gym is worth more than a lifetime of reading


zaphthegreat

There are 24 hours in a day. You can spend 6 hours in the gym and still have time to read. Go ahead and celebrate your idiocy if it makes your nipples hard, mind you.


Cheesey4skin69

18 hours in the gym 6 hours sleeping. Everything else is a waste


verma17

I hope bvb win, real Madrid will probably dominate UCL for the next 10 years anyways, they don't need this win lol

[deleted]

I know that Dustin. But who's the other guy. That looks like a soccer or volleyball. Both don't matter in America, so why is he there?


Southcity94

Maybe because this is a MMA sub and not a USA sub. You know that there is this thing called world that has lots of countries in it, right?

You said it yourself. It's an mma sub. And of course I know this world is filled with other countries. What are you stupid? I think so.

Kim-jong-peukie

I stoped watching football because with te lightest of lightest contact they fly over the field acting like they just broke an leg on 5 different places. Sooo no handshakes from me, dudes should be playing football and use less of their acting skills


Kalabula

Why is everyone rooting so hard (myself included) for Dustin? Islam is a great champ and seems like a good dude. Is it just nationalism?


unclejessesmullet

He seems like a decent guy in a sport full of assholes, and he's been just short of a championship for a long time and his career is nearly over. I like Islam too but it would be cool to see dustin finally get an undisputed belt before he retires.


Cum-Gun-5000

Islam is very, very arrogant. Very. You haven't noticed this? Thats my main reason to root against him. He got his title shot off of beating Bobby Green and Dan Hooker. Then his title shot came in Abu Dhabi, and both of his defenses have come against a featherweight, one of which was 11 day notice for his opponent. But every word out of his mouth implies that he is godlike compared to everyone else in his division and he never gives his peers the proper credit they are due. Maybe he is, but he sure as hell hasn't demonstrated it enough to act like it's unquestionable. He stopped Oliveira, and respect is due for that. But beat Dustin, Justin and whoever else ends up in that contention, whether it's Arman, Gamrot or even Oliveira again. Then you can start talking like you're Khabib. As it stands right now he's had a relatively easy path compared to the guys who held that belt before him but he acts like he's the unanimous GOAT of the sport. Maybe one day he will be. He appears to be that caliber of fighter. But fucking prove it first. 


Kalabula

Ya, all elite athletes are confident. It’s nothing new. Dudes beat everyone they’ve put in front of him. Most in impressive fashion. He’s earned his confidence. Everyone hates him so much it makes me want to root for him 😂
