Any Man Utd fans on here? Feeling nervous.

I wouldn't say I'm 'watching' it but it's on! 😂 It's gonna go to penalties...

MandalaYogaTapestry · 26/05/2021 22:21

Watching. Kind of hoping for penalties (not an avid supporter of either team so in it for entertainment)

CassandraCross · 26/05/2021 22:21

I don't know if penalties can be survived here, it's very tense.

Interested in this thread?

Me. Really don't want penalties. Also don't want to concede a last minute winner.

MajorNeville · 26/05/2021 22:26

I'm watching, I want Man U to win but only because they're the English team, I'm not a supporter, as such.

MrsCatE · 26/05/2021 22:29

Please. Let’s not get to penalties!

RunningFromInsanity · 26/05/2021 22:33

Putting on the experienced penalty taker. Wise

CassandraCross · 26/05/2021 22:38

Oh dear husband is not happy, the stress is going through the roof, replenishing vodka as we speak!

RunningFromInsanity · 26/05/2021 22:40

This is where VAR is going to ruin it, if the goalie steps one foot forward it’ll void the penalty.

ThinkAboutItTomorrow · 26/05/2021 22:52

Tension.

CassandraCross · 26/05/2021 22:53

How much longer is this going to go on????? Are we going to go through everyone and round again?

RunningFromInsanity · 26/05/2021 22:54

Jesus

Theoretically!
RunningFromInsanity · 26/05/2021 22:55

Oh that’s harsh. So so harsh.

MajorNeville · 26/05/2021 22:56

That's was just heartbreaking

RunningFromInsanity · 26/05/2021 22:59

Not de Gea’s fault, the other 10 players let him down in the 120minutes.
Some absolute shocking chances wasted.

MrsCatE · 26/05/2021 23:01

FFS, the one time a goalkeeper can really shine as a hero ... I’m so pissed off. However, been very happy when penalties have gone my way!

Gutted. Bottle of vodka please.

As a neutral I think it was the right result to reflect the game, Man U just didn't really seem up for it for 120 minutes.

VeniVidiWeeWee · 26/05/2021 23:05

Ah well. Perhaps they can have another go at creating an ESL.

CassandraCross · 26/05/2021 23:17

Sending it over with commiserations @aibutohavethisusername.

Ha! He's not.

Not a very good game to be fair, Forest Green v Newport County was much more entertaining. An extra time goal meaning no penalties needed. Football
