Soccer

ok.. let's go with that..

starting with the basic, game and eliminatory timing.. it was key..

ancelotti and real madrid..
were defending the result with intensity and it was (and could have been) enough to maintain the 0-0,

I don't see any big fail there, some minor issues defending saka but basically rodrygo vini and mbappe positional changes (defending our boxes instead attacking the opponent ones) were enough to defend arsenal wingers game

the 2 first goals come in free kicks, unnecessary fouls (must be said) but not real defensive errors or tactic fails.. just 2 incredible kicks what can break any perfect plan

RM got knocked and everyone lost the focus, hopefully arsenal was not able to made blood

anyway, real madrid could win the game.. but the timing was nit our ally yesterday.. and it must be when we bet all in of the timing..
 
kylian, you cannot fail an opportunity like the one in the first half in a knockout of champions league. 

scoring would scare arsenal enough to give us full control and they will never gain momentum like in the end of the game after those rice free kicks.

now, you must score 3 in the second leg.. not easy but doable

The other real players need to get their head into the game
Rodrigo and Vinicius weren’t playing at their best

they were tied to defensive positions, so could not expamd their game all they want

there was no attack, real madrid was supposed to play with no ball 90 min, just quick attacks with 1 or 2 players..

I don't even understand why arsenal refuses the ball long part of the game too.. 

camavinga was not in his best but he did what had to do, he cannot stop 2 free kicks, no one could..

trying to blame real madrid game after two goals like that makes no sense, the game was going under the plan, I was happy with it, sadly rice had other plans.. but one cannot win the champions league with free kicks..

Even during attack 
Vinicius failed to pass defenders easily the way he does effortlessly last season
Rodrygo was just not at top form then camavinga was probably the worst player on the pitch
