What is this rubbish? We wasted so many chances to go ahead in the 1st leg at the beginning of the game. We were all over them.
And we beat them at Anfield. Not many clubs can say that. Not in the champions league. Gimme a break with that “10% of their power” bullshit. If any respectable manager saw that his players were being lazy af up on a 2-0 aggregate, he’d lose his shit.
What chances? We had 0 shots on target. Calhanoglu hit the post once and that's it. Liverpool were saving their breath letting us tire ourselves because they knew they could score whenever they felt like, which they did, twice. Same thing on the return, where even playing with the handbrake on they hit the post 4 or 5 times. They might have momentarily panicked when Lautaro scored out of nowhere, but Sanchez was immediately expelled and they went back to energy saving mode. They were definitely playing at 10%, and it wasn't just the players but a deliberate strategic choice. They knew we couldn't hurt them, and they were right.
