Idk man. All in all, we played a good game. It was mostly down to horrific luck coupled with their GK having an insane game.
R
25 disparos 3 veces mas pases 3 veces mas toques en area rival 8 atajadas 5 palos 6 disparos de OLMO 5 disparos de yamal 3 de fermin And only one goal….
T
The team is extremely dependent on Rafinha, when he’s not here we struggle against even average teams, Lamine is not even in the top 5 players atm.
F
Calm down everyone, it’s just an extremely unlucky game. We were the better team, which was important. 3 goals removed, 4 times hit the bar, penalty removed, keeper had a good day, ours didn’t. Don’t start panicking and blaming anyone (except referee), unlucky games happen, it’s not that deep
Z
Not our night
H
We lost to Sociedad in January of 2015 
H
Thanks Olmo for ruining my night
C
Can anyone please enlighten me as to why Christensen doesn’t start? I genuinely dont get it
P
I always assume he’s injured lol
B
He’s injured.
H
He is injured, as always
C
Ah, missed that. Thanks
B
It’s ok, it happens during league games when team gets very unlucky. Oh and also Gil fucking Monzano
S
Welp only a point ahead, I guess Raphina is the player we needed today unlucky it is what it is. But to everyone who thought it was over it ain’t
S
Not a bad game tbf. Unlucky to the core with some bad refereeing and poor finishing. That second goal really did some damage to the players’ confidence.
V
Will the mods fking make the post match thread already
G
Frenkie is furious
A
You know what even though we lost, we played GOOD. Lots of chances, really good game…just unlucky overall.
S
Just gave up the league to real madrid. When everyone confusedly asks ”wtf how did real madrid win la liga, they were in complete chaos, no??” it will be this match that decided it. Pathetic.
K
……we’re 1 point ahead excuse me?
P
You do know we’re still leading the league? Right?
M
Chill.
S
No. I’m fucking crashing out and I’m fucking not watching a single minute of football for a month because of this absolute dogshit. My blood pressure is through the roof because of this team yet again
G
Frenkie spitting facts
O
This was bad. VAR didn’t give us a goal because of no more than 5mm. Sooooo mannyyyy chancesss. We really could’ve done better. We lost our 4 point lead, but the upside is that we still are number 1.
C
And just like that, the lead to Real is gone. If Flick doesn’t win La Liga against *this* abomination of a Real Madrid team he needs to be sacked. Our defensive stability, or rather lack thereof, is completely inexcusable. Celta has a better defense with Óscar Mingueza and Marcos Alonso as starters. There’s simply *no excuse* for us to be so dogshite defensively. It’s not individual errors, it’s systemic. Edit: Hahahaha, Flick lovers out in full force, refusing to admit that he has a *big* issue with his defensive organisation. Go watch his stint in Bayern, go watch his stint with Germany. If he refuses to take a *good, hard, long* look at the defense it absolutely, undoubtedly *will* be his undoing.
C
MVP today: the referee
S
Fuck Laporta, Fuck Deco! Got damn giving no reinforcements for such a great manager.
S
Don’t mess with laporta bro this is all on deco
S
He’s the dude who chose Deco
A
Well we are still in Copa del Rey..
C
Not our day. Still leading the table.
Z
Fuck this game, fuck this defense, fuck Gil Manzano. How can we be so fucking unlucky in a game? Yamal played like crazy, we played well, except for this fucking defense, just to be denied by post, Manzano and VAR.
E
Yamal played well until the disallowed goal. Morale went down big time after that and conceding
D
This defence will not win UCL
P
Overall good performance. I think we were mainly unlucky. Ref didn’t help. Our response after 2nd goal should have been better. Just one of those days. As long as it doesn’t become a habit..
C
Last season barca lost 6 games, we have lost 3 so far this season
L
We did play good we were just shit in front of the goal.. should have ended at least with 3 goals difference but yeah thats football… last year we missed these goal in the cl, now we miss them in la liga.. so cl this seosen but no laliga?
H
If you are promising CL then yeah I guess
C
The whole back line give me absolutely zero confidence
N
we’re going to lose UCL as per tradition at this rate
H
Don’t go looking at xG today boys… You’ll be disheartened
N
I haven’t watched the game, can someone tell me how it was and how the fuck did we conceded right after scoring?
M
Honestly just a bad game, we are still 1 point ahead and our next matches aren’t bad. A bad game doesn’t define if we win or lose the season we still have more matches to play and especially madrid at camp nou.
H
We were unlucky I ain’t gonna pin it all in team, but cuba was the sure cause of that second goal, the ball literally bounced off his head, and u could see lewa saying just head off the ball man Second , fermin and olmo together was a dumb decision by Flick ngl, that left side was being up and down by balde and he got tired For the nth time I’m saying , Ferran as a starter won’t work, put lewa in , he will drag out defenders atleast and hold up the play well
C
Disgraceful performance
I
nah it was a good performance just unlucky
P
Good Game to Sociedad. Absolutely horrid luck on our side today. Some bad performance. We will win next time hopefully.

Cancelo so bad, he makes current Balde look like a good player
