I know. And nobody is really arguing with the referee's decision. Don't you think it's sad though, that a legend of the game's CL campaign should end like that?
You'd have put your house on Ronaldo to score though, whoever was in goal. Cometh the hour, and all that...
I do. The referee is only a minor participant in a football match, and whatever the circumstances, it’s heartbreaking to see a footballing legend denied a chance of winning his last chance at the Champions League.
It's such a huge shame that he's never won the European Cup. Best keeper of a generation and possibly ever imo.
Agreed (maybe not ever - there is Dino Zoff) However, before we feel too sorry for him, he did win a World Cup. I'd take that on my CV over a CL win if I had to choose. Ask Messi
