seemingly when the Mafia wish to take out a rival they often make it look like an innocent accident.

you fell of your roof while fixing your tv ariel, you drowned in your swimming pool while cleaning the leaves out with a net , etc etc...

Players often entangle, tumble and fall over each other while scrambling to get to the ball. No effort was made by Ramos to get the ball.

Perhaps referees need a training in judo/ju jitsu....cos that move Ramos did is straight out of the textbook. He trapped the elbow and applied pressure against the joint. He even rolled all his body weight onto Salah just for good measure. Injured the best opposition player on the pitch early on in the game.

we have seen Wilfried targeted every week and must emphathise with the sentiments of the pool fans.

not even to mention the Ramos elbow to the head of the goalkeeper which got the fella really rattled and may have contributed to a shocking performance.

for me, as a neutral, the Champions League final had the potential to be a real spectacle. Ruined by cynical cheating. And the worst part is that it paid off, the trophy is in the cabinet of the cheaters.

What a vile disgusting player he is. There’s not many players Who’s career I’d like to see end but he’s one of only a few.

World Class cheating. Managed to hoodwink all the officials and steal the prize.

Ramos should have got a straight red but it looks like his cheating was beyond the sophistication of the referee on the day.

Ramos 'got lucky with the shoulder' the same way Bale got lucky with finding the back of the net twice. It was deliberate, skillful, and brilliant...but in a nasty way. It was also planned from the look of how it was executed.

his little grin and wink afterwards says it all. Even Roy Keane trying to kneecap haaland looks amateur by contrast.

The bin dippers didn't complain when their players were doing it to us.

If you wrestle with a pig the pig loves it and you end up covered in s***e. That's life.

I personally find it impossible to feel anything but unalloyed joy at every failure of the constantly whining, perpetual (self-declared) victimhood of the City of Micky Mousers.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!

Taking Salah out of the game was world class cheating from Ramos. I'm not convinced it was an accident as he or some certain pundits are saying.

Moreover if the ref saw that and thought nothing of it he should have been sent off for elbowing Karius in the face. At the very least that incident should be reviewed and he should be banned for 3+ games for the WC.

Can't stand Liverpool but I can't stand Real even more!
