'None of the Liverpool players appear to have gone over to console Loris Karius at the final whistle.'
He's a **** keeper and cost them the game but that is CLASSLESS!!

Liverpool are tbh. Got an easier group than Real, despite being in pot 3, and drew the easier sides all the way through.
They put on a decent fight tonight though, it's not easy to beat this Real side.

The man is so ****ing banal it should be illegal
I will never understand how a one in a million strike plus the goalie throwing the ball in the net twice can be considered clinical. They were much the better team but could easily have lost the game precisely because they were not clinical.
because no matter how you put it, you don't fluke your way to 3 CL trophies. They must be doing something right
Who can remember when Madrid were in decline according to the world? About the time we smashed them
Stick Talksport on for a giggle btw

I might have believed it at one point, when Bale wasn't getting starts, but that bicycle in the ****ing CHAMPIONS LEEGUE FINAL has, I fear, priced him out of our range
I do hope so! Doubt he'd fit into the wage scheme at St Mary's though.
Fun seeing him shaft those former "Saints" players who couldn't even leave with dignity, especially Lovren in tears.
Every club is in decline when we beat them. See - Madrid, Dortmund, Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal... oh wait.
They were not in decline but seriously out of form, you only have to look at their La Liga results around that time to see this
Not really. They lucked into a non proven goal scorer , another Messi no less and had easy teams all through.So Klopp will be on his knees hoping the little fella doesn't miss any games......
To be honest,Ronaldo wasn't scoring for a long time and Real didn't do well in those games he didn't score.They were not in decline but seriously out of form, you only have to look at their La Liga results around that time to see this
Real rely on Ronaldo as Liverpool rely on the little arab,Spurs relying on Harry and Barca om Messi.
I think if UEFA were truly keen at promoting sportsmanship and punishing cheating they might actually do something when obvious things happen. But they clearly aren't. I didn't have a lot of sympathy for Pool tonight - I've not got that much against them as a team, but can't stand the free ride they get from pundits - but I also think that Real don't deserve anything when they have the guy that tried to get Mane sent off by pretending (CHEATING) he'd been hit in the face (who was that?)
Good one. UEFA, like most corparate entities these days, is interested in money. Not entirely, but in the end that is what matters. That is not to say that they don't want do good things. But, the spectacle, the TV rights will always win out in the end.
I've made the argument in other threads that Ramos's takeout of Salah tonight was quite deliberate given even a basic knowledge of martial arts like Judo. And yet all the pundits in the studio will tell you that it was an unfortunate accident.
Football is bent. To some degree. Most other things are.
