  • Goal worthy of an equaliser that from Kovacic
    Looked a bit dodge to me. Multiple players didn’t close him and the keeper didn’t even try and save it! 
    Think Club Brugge were too busy try to mark the players they were ordered to focus on - Probably scared to step out, and be the man to leave another City player free to score.
  • Both Man City and Brugge could do with Matty Godden standing in the area to flick one of these efforts on target!!
  • Lovely finish that from the Brugge Defender...
  • Obviously the position is changing every few minutes but atm Man City would play Real Madrid in the play off round

    Watkins would have scored that penalty on The Valley's bald pitch

    I didn’t think it was a pen.

    Weirdest panenka ever.

    By Christ, Robbie Savage doesn’t half talk some shit.
    He keeps going on about the three forward subs Club Brugge have made like they were the stupidest subs ever. But he hasn’t considered that, maybe, the three that were on before have pressed and run so hard that they’re almost certainly out of gas. It’s not fucking rocket science.

    Gobshite.

    Still done partly by a draw, albeit in brackets of pairs, if that makes sense.

    as it stands Celtic and Man City will play Real Madrid and Bayern Munich, a draw to determine which is which.

    This new format is so weird.

    I like that there’s a bracket with paths mostly determined. Bit like a World Cup or a tennis Grand Slam.

    Celtic are screwed and so i would expect are City too if they don't buy a DM in the next 5 days.

    That's fine, but the weird pairing thing. Group stage isn't fair either, celtic got both of the whipping boys.

    That said, some incredible ties in the playoff.

    When I last checked the score, it was 2-1 to City. A disaster to then lose 3-2, but great teams like Real and Charlton find ways of winning games.

    0-0 between Bayern and Celtic at HT. Kane off at HT.

    Celtic 1-0 up. 2-2 on aggregate now.
  • In the space of 15 minutes, Lookman (on as a half time sub) has scored, had a goal disallowed and then missed a penalty.
  • Celtic have a shock lead away at Bayern, very impressive performance from them so far.

    Crazy night of results in Europe as it stands.

    Bayern get out of jail in added time, now 3-2 ahead. 
  • Alphonso Davies scores in the last minute of added time to make it 1-1 and send Bayern through 3-2 on aggregate.

    Bayern score their first in 4th minute of extra time. 
    Not a fan of Celtic but felt for them. That was heartbreaking for them, Bayern through. 
  • Would Bayern not have won on Away Goals?

    No away goals now.

    Couldn't have been worked out any better. Give them all the hope and then have it snatched away right at the death. 

    They did play well to be fair, but in the end Bayern's relentless pressure was just too much.
  • Last 16 (draw is tomorrow) will be:

    PSG v Liverpool or Barcelona 
    Club Brugge v Lille or Aston Villa
    Real Madrid v Atletico or Leverkusen
    PSV v Arsenal or Inter
    Feyenoord v Arsenal or Inter
    Bayern v Atletico or Leverkusen
    Dortmund v Lille or Aston Villa
    Benfica v Liverpool or Barcelona


    Some very good potential ties there.
    A nasty draw for Liverpool or Barca given they finished top 2 in the group.
    Could also get a Madrid derby and Germany's top 2 sides facing off.
    Would fancy both Arsenal and Villa to progress whoever they draw.
