How do you trick a wall into jumping? lolCon M wrote: ↑Sun Aug 16, 2020 6:43 am ManCity v. Lyon 1-3. Half-time was 0-1 with Lyon controlling the play.
But the drama was at the 86th minute mark, with the game poised at 1-2, when Sterling missed a tap-in with the goal-mouth completely open.
Instead of Sterling equalising to make it 2-2, Dembele raced down the other end in the 87th minute to seal Lyon’s 3-1 win.
A couple of things caught the eye in this absorbing game:
(a) Lyon’s inventive defending at free-kicks by ManCity. A Lyon defender was down with an outstretched leg behind his 4-man wall to block any disguised low shot under the wall if the wall was tricked into jumping; and
(b) lifelong ManCity fan Simon Hill commentating this game - shades of bias similar to Eddie Maguire commentating Collingwood games in the AFL.

He played well as did his opposite.
The best team won.
Neymar for all his brilliance is a sort of player that his team mates would not hesitate to punch in the face. All about him.
He dives, complains, get opposition players carded, tries too many tricks.

Re: Champions League 19/20
I see Celtic have continued their annual proving that Scottish Football is well below Champions League quality, they just don't deserve to be allowed entry to this level of competition.
