Futbol thread.

  • The Kiwi Farms was targeted with a historic DDoS attack last week. Confirmed reports of 2.8Tbps on an individual provider, topping 4.8Tbps when known volumes are added together, and possibly up to 8Tbps if the attacker is believed. This is the third of fourth largest recorded.

At least make the keeper have to save it for fucks sake. Fucking twice they couldn't even hit the fucking goal. No I didn't just punch a fucking wall and am going to get drunk.
 
No team with a value of over a freaking fucking billion and that has only 28% possession, especially after scoring within the first 10 minutes of the match, deserves to win a final. Period.

I woke up early for this shit game and this may be what? My 8th time watching an english football team playing and I genuinely hated it.

English football makes me sad.

Arsenal just play really shit football in general. Dirty tactics and time-wasters.

Fun fact: Bukayo Saka had four accurate passes the entire game. He was on the pitch for 83 minutes. I'm not kidding.

Watch a lower division. The Championship is excellent, League 1 & 2 likewise. You can probably find a cheeky stream somewhere, if items not included in your tv sports package already.

The Premier League is designed to maximise bullshit and money. The Champions League likewise. It’s boring as fuck. Watch real football with players who aren’t on millions a year and who might actually give a shit. Pick a side randomly from the EFL (or even non-league) and support them. You’ll be happier for it, I guarantee it.

I exclusively watch my national league and our continental competitions. I really don't care about european football overall, but english football every time I watched was some dreadful shit. Last year in the CWC, Botafogo won against PSG basically doing the same strategy. However one team was worth 1 billion euros and the other 160 million euros. It made sense for the weaker team to play like this. In this very same competition Chelsea destroyed PSG in the final. Is there such a great rift between Arsenal and Chelsea to make this sorry ass football the only way?

Even the premier league I find it bullshit that only 3 teams get relegated. Im Brasileirão there are 4 spots to get relegated, so every year it is the most soulful day of the entire year. Last year my team escaped with the most improbable results that would make even an atheist believe in God.
 

i thoroughly enjoyed watching Arsenal get a referee that had zero tolerance for any of their usual antics, it's so obvious that they've grown accustomed to them always getting their way through incompetent PL refs that they were completely beside themselves whenever they didn't get the call they were hoping for.

Arteta instructed them to play a low block for 2 hours (!!!!) and hoof everything away, we were never getting a repeat of the 1st leg of Bayern vs. PSG because it takes two to tango.

he's essentially playing catenaccio but instead of counter attacking its focused on making the most out of set pieces and crowding the referee to have shit go your way.

honestly looking at these stats; if you were to remove Arsenal's badge and had to make an educated guess on who PSG was playing here you'd probably arrive at a club like Swindon Town or some shit holding onto dear life until penalties, not THE fucking PL champions.

Remember when Big Sam Allardyce said before he got sacked from Blackburn by the Indians that if his lastname was Allardici he would be managing Real Madrid?
Slightly wrong since Allardici would've managed Arsenal. To think that Wenger used to hate this style of football (which Allardyce used to screw Arsenal over and over again) and here we are now seeing them use even worse style with a team significantly better.

I can accept this style from a bottom tier team or if the team is significantly lacking personnel due to injury/suspension (think Chelsea 2012, even they didn't play this cynical) but from a full strength title contender? Sometimes I wonder how their fans who paid one of the most expensive tickets to watch this week in week out feel. My local team played this style for 5+ years and it was miserable to watch and drove people away from games.

God it was a great watch. Arsenal at their worst nonsense getting put in their place by a good referee telling them to shut up, choking on pens (with prime dickhead Gabriel being the one to kill it off) and then having probably the worst performance of any cl finalist.
First undefeated team to end as runners up, how very arsenal

Psg honestly werent that good and if arsenal had decided to press on they actually might have done it. Maybe spanish southgate will learn something. Maybe pgmol will learn something. I doubt it
 
I like how the reaction to Gabriel Magalhães' miss is different between countries.

Brazil: "Aw man, that must have hurt, he didn't deserve being like that..."

Everywhere else, especially in England : "AH HAHAHA get bent, you bellend!"
 
Eintracht Frankfurt decided to bring back Adi Hütter as coach which is ... something.

Last time Hütter was our coach he left on not so good terms. Frankfurt held most of the season a place that would have allowed them to play Champions League, then Hütter announced to leave the club after the season and chaos ensued costing us the CL which led to Frankfurt playing Euro League which Frankfurt won in the end.

You may know about FC Bayern being known as FC Hollywood for all the drama there but Frankfurt is called "the prima donna" bc we are the original drama club (but we are too poor to be Hollywood).
