            Surely this has to be a joke. 2 teams well beaten in the first leg, unbelievable. Must be an Italian fighting spirit. What are the odds, they were 2 Italian teams

                  To come that close then throw it all away with a red card and PK at the very end…gut wrenching.

                    On a kind of cool note…we now have a German, English, Italian, and Spanish side left.

                      From what I've gathered so far…the penalty was quite a controversial one.  Go figure.

                          nah. i've seen the highlights now and i feel that it's a soft one to give away. anywhere outside the penalty area, sure go for it. but in the box, it has to be more defined..

                            I can’t understand the debate. The Madrid player has the ball, is shaping to score only a few metres out, and the defender goes through the back of him. He gets a foot on the ball sure, after he decked the attacker by shoving him to the ground.

                              All in all I think it was a fair result cause honestly I'm not sure Isco was offsides on his disallowed goal. After watching the highlights several times I think it was a penalty although I think giving Buffon a red card was uncalled for.  The ref looked scared shitless with Buffon up in his face, like a deer in headlights and I think it was a knee jerk reaction to red card him.

                                Btw, unsung hero in that final play….Toni Kroos.  That pass was delivered with pinpoint accuracy to Ronaldo with the calm, composed, efficient, ice in the veins disposition that ze Germans are known for.

                                  A chest height challenge from behind, in the box, where the challenging player failed to make contact with the ball cannot be described as a soft penalty  😃

                                  And I am speaking as somebody who thoroughly dislikes both Real Madrid and Ronaldo, and has always had a soft spot for Juve.

                                    Buffon also told Italian media that Oliver should "sit in the stands eating crisps" for "ruining a dream".

                                    Something may be lost in translation here…  😃

                                        It looks to me as if he did make contact with the ball though….still hard to say.  At the end of the day I think the ref made the right call.  He almost had to make that call.  If he didn't and Juve ends up winning that game????  Man...he would have needed a police escort out of the stadium.

                                            Yep. Benatia first pushes Vazquez from behind and then kicks his chest without getting any of the ball. Kudos to Oliver for seeing it correctly.
