Problem is that one decision was that crucial. There was hardly time to score more goals so it cost us two points. With those two points we don’t need to beat AC and in injury time could shut up shop instead of going Gung ho for a winner.
We weren’t good enough to win the group and certainly not the cup but we were robbed by the incorrect penalty. Even losing the last game we would have been third and AC in the CL

I understand that but there's other decisions and results.. the group is decided over 6 games not one pen mate.
 
On balance we should've made the EL. PSG "should" have beaten us at their place, we "should" have beaten Milan at home. That we finished bottom was a failure from Eddie and his players, the pen debacle doesn't really change that.

Anyway, the past is the past. Listening to the morgue that is the Sh*tihad "stadium". CL semi, and the best you get is a half arsed "come on City". It's sad that so much success and wealth has been bestowed upon such a 'mid' football club. I don't think they'll ever shake the small team/rich owner tag. They could win the treble again and most of the football world would just shrug and hope for a different winner next year.
