Fantastic watch, and a well deserved win to Wrexham, 3-2. One team automatically promoted is such a shame, both teams deserve to go straight up. Wrexham 103 points, and Notts County 100 points, thus far.. great stuff.
As a neutral it was a really enjoyable match
AFAIK Chelsea have pretty much a fully fit squad.Disappointed to have missed the big CL game last night. Sounds like both teams went for it with Man C proving too strong - they seem to be playing their best football at the most important time of the season.
I haven’t heard much about the fitness of the Chelsea squad but playing the second leg at home, providing they can get out of Madrid with a 1-0 defeat, would be a big advantage. As I said earlier, the CL winners will either be RM or the team that beats them!
As a neutral it was a really enjoyable match and what a contrast to most PL games where cheating throughout is now the norm.
I thought the game was played in a really good spirit and the ref did his best to let it flow.
Bayern probably deserved a goal but City could so easily have racked up 4 or 5.
Upamecano had a nightmare 2nd half, routinely giving the ball away, which cost his team big time ironically during a period when Bayern were playing their best football.
Not quite tie over but pretty close.
What a player Nathan Aké has matured into!
If only Chelsea could’ve got their hands on players as brilliant as Ake and De Bruyne?Ake is brilliant. Dias leadership helps the whole back four, IMO.
I was trying to decide who I thought was City's MOTM, and gave up. Probably Ake, or was it Akanji? Or on the other hand...
A great game, but not good for my nerves or stress levels! 4 to go and 7 points needed to guarantee promotion.

I year ago to the day Chelsea won at the Bernebau - hope springs eternal.Bit worried about Chelsea tonight, hope they can hang in there and maybe squeak a goal.

Looking back at that match - a couple of observations :- Alonso really unlucky to be penalised for handball after such a magnificent half volley and how poor was Edouard Mendy for the opening Madrid goal - absolutely rooted to the spot (not to mention gifting Madrid a goal in the 1st leg).
A lot has happened in the ensuing 12 months - none of it positive from a Chelsea point of view.
