Am I the only one who assumed that Antonio Colak was an unknown, young striker playing for Juventus?
Why didn’t lovren play?How did Luka S fair yesterday other than his pk’s?
Rakitic needs to memorize where the Seville crest is he initiated went to kiss the Nike symbol lol
Some of you should really be ashamed for not rallying around our brother Brekalo. He choose the path of decency while some of you probably wear your sister’s underwear.
@Elvis
Are you talking about Baka? It seems like he/she/other would wear his sister’s underwear.
Lovren not in the lineup? Not a shocker
Damn Ivan & Sucic scoring!! Love it
Ante, it’s still Villarreal, not Villareal.
Surprised it says Atletico there not Athletico lol.
Rakitic scores a pk. 4 pks in the 1st half lol
Now Rakitic with a PK. Gol!
Sucic another PK, post/miss. Can’t say I feel too bad for him.
and sucic missed a pK. this game is crazy 35 minutes 3pks they missed 2 and scored 1. lol
I would love to see Pjaca succeed again. We need a true right winger, and he has the finishing ability too
Sucic with the goal for salzburg. I liked watching him fight off Adeyemi to be able to take the PK. Confident lad! You love to see it!
Sucic scores a PK…and celebrates like a bit of a twat.
He did the Mandzukic celebration… whats wrong with that?
It looked much more pointed and angry. Also, it was a PK — and a very early one at that — not some sort of beautiful goal. And on the road, not all that bright to taunt.
1) hes 19
2) hes confident
3) he did the mandzukic which in itself is bad ass
4) good for him
Disagree. It was a PK. You and I could have scored. To him I say get over yourself.
Yet he is a pro and here you are
1 for 2 on PKs isn’t exactly something to celebrate. The miss shut him up at least, while the football gods smiled.
shows you never played the game at any decent level. its all good tho
Hilarious.
Wasnt meant to be.
Can’t make out your words. Apostrophes are your friend.
Lol okay. Doesnt negate the fact that you dont know what youre talking about.
Hilarious, again.
The truth most of time is not funny.
Both your truth and the character here with that name, I totally agree.
Its part of my last name so it definitely isnt meant to be funny. Your apparent “understanding” of the game is quite funny though.
Saying someone is acting “like a bit of a twat” doesn’t have much to do with “understanding” the game, lad.
Find me a “pro” who thinks scoring 1 of 2 PKs is a good day at the office … got anyone?
Not anyone I would want on my team. Plunk. Post. You get what you get when you act like a bit of a twat.
You think the player is happy with 1 of 2? But you keep keepin’ on, Baka.
He is 19 and just scored a goal in his CL debut yes he can celebrate how ever he wants.
No one said he can’t, Baka. Like-a-bit-of-a-twat celebrations are celebrations too.
Have a feeling Kovacic will step up big again.
Interesting to see how Sucic will lineup and see Rakitic’s form.
Wouldn’t surprise me if Malmo drew Juve.
Inter will lose to Real. Modric with a goal or assist.
Lille will draw Wolfsburg and wanna see Grbic play well.
No way Brekalo would’ve started for Wolfsburg nor will Vrsaljko.
Any idea if Bradaric will start?
Rebic ain’t doing shit today since Ibrahimovic is out of the lineup.
Josko will be tested against the best forwards.
Atalanta will lose or draw.
Pongracic starting isn’t my concern, seeing mini Pasalic being subbed on would be good to see.
Nice to see so many Croatians in the CL…lots of games to follow.
Brekalo plays for Torino’s left bench. Didn’t even get playing time this weekend while his time was up 2-0 against Salernitana. At least Pjaca looked okay but no Champions League for these two.
Do you watch soccer? How often does a player slot right into the starting XI after recently joining? Almost never, not even Messi did. It will take an adjustment period until he gets placed in the XI, it’s just standard stuff.
I’m not giving up on Brekalo.I truly believe in 2or3 years this kid will be a very vital part of the national teams future.
He’s just too talented and explosive not to succeed,if he stays hungry and healthy.
Halilovic is way more fit 🙁 _
do you believe in G()D?
This halilovic joke of yours is getting stale…line up some new material LA!
Grbic will not be facing Brekalo.
Yep, forgot he moved to Torino. You and Markus both caught it. Thanks.
