Sturbridge still sucks.

It’s no Monson for sure.

iPhone autocorrect. I think I've established I know his name.

Bullshit red on Ronaldo for yelling at a Valencia player for diving

Did the ref think Rolando hit him or pulled his hair?

What's happening with ManCity?

I think the goal line official must have thought Ronaldo struck him?


Anyway, my ESPN app has the other group H match abbreviated as "BOY v MAN" oh and City is down 2-0?

Two awful defensive mistakes and generally lethargic play has Lyon deservedly on top. City have threatened at times so I don't know that this one is over but I"m quite thankful this is happening in group stage

I wouldn’t know because TNT didn’t show highlights and Univision showed the goals from weird camera angles. One was an awful giveaway from the Man City back line.

Before I lose my mind, does anybody have a replay that can show an actual infraction? I haven’t come to grips with Ronaldo on my side but I still can’t figure this out.

I do know it was the goal line ref, which likely makes it the first time in history they’ve ever been involved.

I think you can find all the highlights on BR's youtube page.

TNT's pre/post game show lacks polish and chemistry, that's for sure. They will probably need a couple of transfers during the January window.
