    Really professional job masterminded by King Pep, so far. For all it looks like it's been all Bayern, they've only been allowed to take long range shots. City have soaked it up and could have scored 2 or 3 on the break.

    Haaland was always going to score.

    Loving this referee.

    No nonsense and on top of the players.

    Would never happen in the PL as the refs are all too soft <whistle>

    I've never seen Haaland so fired up, I think the Bayern fans must of got to him.

    They're making the mistake of finishing 3rd. Teams that finish 3rd dont usually go up in the play-offs. Expect Archer to be a prem star in the future.

    They still shouldn't be over turning reds like he did though, a foul is foul even if the offiside flag goes up.

    What about at corners when the defender drags someone to the ground but no penalty as the ball's not in play....bonkers.

    So if I spin my defender just before a throw in is taken and he rugby tackles me to the ground I'm guessing that's not given as a foul then.

    Ball not in play you see.

    Yeah really tight down there. One of 5 clubs will join the bottom two in league one next season.

    Shame my lot are still stuck in L2, would have made a decent fixture next season QPR. Our record ever attendance was against them.

    I think City may actually win it. RM are kings of this comp but last year's knock out will have City up for it and as long as Pep doesn't go mental again with the tactics they'll win the final.
