then ancelotti kept him, knowing full well the danger he represented, but knowing also he was the best chance for bayern to score a 3rd.

it was a risky gamble. after he went out based on his reputation alone, it was a foregone conclusion.

then later you could have said offside, or casemiro, or whatever.

the fact is the refs do tend to favor home teams. see: last week's nonexistent penalty that he missed.

that's when bayern should have forged clear ahead but didn't.

shit happens.

and respect to madrid. do i hate ronaldo? fuck yes. ramos? for sure. spaniards? a few. but madrid were better overall.

and yes it was a tough fucking match worthy of a final. it's sad but one had to go.

rest in pieces, bayern's CL campaign.

see you next year.
