    lost vs one of the farmers league club. Not enough money in english league maybe to buy the best players in the world? What a shame. I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes.

    50/50 call, coulda went either way. Think psg deserved a pk earlier as well. Think Newcastle got away with it

    Hate when people look at games where one side is held scoreless like that and think the other team defended well, Newcastle gave up chance after chance and wasted countless opportunities to hold on to possession or fully clear the ball. Woeful defending but still robbed as PSG were as clinical as a team of Antonys up front

    I know that this sub has a huge anti PSG bias (even when it’s another oil club on the other side). So yes, PSG can be considered very tough. I agree with that. But for me there was a penalty on Hakimi and PSG and a handball by Newcastle earlier which was surely more of a penalty than the latter decision.

    However, PSG were cursed in this match, on a “normal” evening PSG should put 4 in the second half. Newcastle never got past the midfield again from the second half onwards. And they can thank Donnaruma for giving them a ridiculous goal.

    In short, Newcastle are a good team with heart, but for me PSG were clearly the better team tonight and a draw is the minimum.

    In any case, this group is still wide open. Newcastle, Milan and PSG can still qualify. PSG can finish first or third. It’s wide open.

    while i did think that PSG would eventually score i wasn’t expecting it to happen that way. that call was inexcusable, i would say almost corrupt.

    I’ll accept the technicality, it’s harsh as fuck but thems the rules I guess.

    Super proud of the effort put in by a threadbare squad. The club has come so far in just a couple of years. Moments like this are just fuel for the future. Howay!

        I was just going off the cbs explanation, to be fair in my mind that shouldn’t ever be called.

        Still have a chance of getting through!

    Harsh pen but that goal was coming for about 40 minutes. Can’t just sit back and boot the ball away with no desire to keep possession.

    HOW do you get 31 shots and a 4.5XG and your only goal is a rigged penalty?? Didn’t watch the game but can someone tell me who was struggling to finish lol

    If you don’t like PSG, remember that they’ll get robbed in the last eight or quarter-finals against Barcelona, Real, United or whoever. For every favorable decision granted to PSG, 5 are given to their opponents.

      I don’t care about PSG but you’re now basically through rather than likely eliminated due to one of the worst decisions anyone will see this season.

      Surely you’re not dumb enough to think anyone cares about some imagined decision that might go against you several rounds later.
