What a fucking strike that was… Golazo Rakitic!!!
Vamos!! Rakitic!!
God blimey that was a missile from 40 yards out.
What a strike from Rakitic! World class!
Dream start.
What a fucking Goal, that decisiveness pleasure to see. One thing on his mind. And perfect execution.
Not easy to beat Oblak from that distance, it was pinpoint.
How has rat boy got away with just elbowing Delaney in the face?
We have to build on the lead or they will nick it with a penalty and some foolish refereeing. We know the script.
Apparently Ivan is 5ft 8in. He looks shorter than Papu Gomez to me.
Yup, no time to sit back and hold a 1-0.
Just saw Rakitic’s goal. Wow is all I can say. Come on guys let’s get another
Awesome to see the fans in full voice
Noticed it a few times tonight, but does Kounde look before he passes the ball? He’s put us in trouble about two or three times already, and he almost kicked that pass right out behind Diego Carlos.
Delaney playing the Fernando role really well so far. Looking good.
This ref uggg
The Ref is showing his colours already
Montiel big injury blow.
Gudelj replacing him!
More injury woe. Montiel going off. We having no luck in this depart which makes it even more impressive with how well we doing.
If you should learn just one thing on ref-school it should be: be consistent. Figure out where you wanna draw the line and stick to it. It would just ease frustrations so much.
Example in point: that tiny (!!) push from our Romero resulted in a freekick. But that infight with Ocampos was play on. Of course players get frustrated.
Fuck! Another hamstring! Gudelj in at cb Kounde out wide
