Obviously, I can't watch the game right now... But from what I can see, it looks a very even contest. The only difference is that they've had shots on target.
 
It's fair to say we could have seen 5 yellow cards here.

Min.

Ref also bottled two calls for var.


Absolutely shocking ref at this level.
 
We've done alright tbf but the injury hurt us and most likely led to the goal.

I've already resigned myself to the idea of Barca scoring at Anfield so we will need an away goal.

Generally it's not terrible, getting drawn into their antics though and need to rise above.

Our passing though, jesus christ how crap can it get
 
Yeah, not impressed at all by the ref. One pull back carded, three others ignored. Fab hacked down late and just waved play on, not even a talking to. That said, Milner and Fabinho both could have picked up yellows two for some late challenges or blatant shoulder blocks.

Aside from that, really happy with how we've done so far. We've had some good opportunities and will continue to make some more in the second half. Need a goal.

If I were Hendo and Milner, I'd be at Suarez's ear and winding him up, he's getting riled.

The ref doesn't call for VAR it is automatic in certain situations,

Well it's pretty damned clear it's not being called at all. Both had a case on play back.

Barcelona have been constantly fouling and badly as well. Thats a separate matter and refs just ignoring clear fouls at times.
 
When the ref is this bent and you still only have 1 goal, Barcelona will be [HASHTAG]#worried[/HASHTAG]
 
A fit Firmino and we wipe the floor with this lot. Tactically we have been brilliant shapwise. Shame Keita got injured as I believe that lapse before Hendo got switched on is how Barca got through. Just need that away goal.

Hopefully we can get Bobby on as Wijnaldum is sort of a passenger in that role.
