Villa v PSG

I tried 'betbuilder' with 'Denise' - the criteria is min 1/1, with possibly 2 selections only for a free bet, if unsuccessful. But, I'd not get accepted no matter what I did eg PSG to win, and PSG/PSG. Am I doing something wrong?

95% pass success rate by PSG in the first leg which is phenomenal and prolly partly deliberate from Emery.  Vitinha and Ruiz just don't give the ball away.  Maybe they'll both come down with food poisoning?  Villa didn't get the luck on the night they needed, beaten by 2 wonder goals and a very smart 3rd one.      Villa need to get in their faces to get that down, and maybe an early goal and a big slice of luck, can put the pressure on and make a game of it.

the first goal will be crucial. its game on if villa get it, its game over if psg get it

Thanks for the reminder. My last day with Prime.

A very tough ask but i would love to see Villa get through. They have always been my "second team" ever since i was lucky enough to get hold of a ticket for the European Cup Final in 1982. Great memories.

It must be.  It is!  Peter Withe.

Spink was the hero that day.

He was indeed clydebank, none of us had ever heard of him beforehand and when Jimmy Rimmer went off we thought the game was up, but he kept goal like a veteran. Only his second ever appearance for Villa which made his performance even more amazing.

Villa to be outclassed

Aston Villa XI: Martínez; Cash, Konsa, Pau Torres, Digne; Kamara, Tielemans; Rogers, Onana, McGinn; Rashford

PSG XI: Donnarumma; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Pacho, Nuno Mendes; João Neves, Vitinha, Fabián Ruiz; Barcola, Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia

Borussia Dortmund XI: Kobel; Bensebaini, Couto, Süle, Anton, Svensson; Nmecha, Adeyemi, Gross; Beier, Guirassy

Barcelona XI: : Szczesny; Koundé, Cubarsí, Araujo, Martín; De Jong, Fermín, Gavi; Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha

Emery out of his depth at this level. His players too

Does anyone else or just me Rashford does not seem to be fully dial-in at Villa? He seems to be a player there "with benefit" only ie for his self-interest.

cash to be booked again at 3/1 looks decent to me

Fully expect PSG to qualify, but not worth backing unless Villa score first.

Did none of these TV pundits watch the first leg?

Rashford will be regretting saying he needed a fresh challenge. United to Villa is a massive comedown.

they have to sell it to Villa fans and naive neutrals as an exciting contest.

Rashford is lucky Villa wanted him

Can't believe he's leaving Watkins and Ascencio on the bench

again

maybe Watkins isn't fully fit, or Emery doesn't trust him, but it does seem to be a strange decision

Not a betting game for me but hoping Villa somehow turns it around.

I completely agree with you there Liamog.

I agree mes. Ascencio particularly is a great player

PSG not committing many to attack

that's that then

how tf are those annoying drums allowed in the stadium

Game over

Long way back now...



Drums, horrible

Martinez best "keeper in the world". Don't think so.

Keeper made a right horlicks out of that.

Dortmund 1-0

nice to see Martinez le boeuf,fook up big style,keep him quiet for at least 10 mins

Curtains!

needed Villa to score first to make a bet worthwhile, but I'm not convinced they will score at all.

Amazon prime pictures miles behind
I got goal alert at least 90 seconds ahead of seeing it

There's always latency on IPTV

2 0

Apologies, won't spoil it again

I've had Amazon Prime before and there was a terrible lag. That's what I hate about streaming serivices. TV Pics were a lot faster 50 years ago.

Poor from villa, got to keep the door shut.

This will probably be 3-0 before halftime

Surely others are getting BF alerts if you've had a bet on it?

It's the worst platform for live sports there has ever been

Game on, again, maybe...

Nearly everyone has got Prime so Amazon is probably the most watched stream.

It's fashionable to knock Rashford but he really is a poor footballer, first 15 minutes of the game his touch and control was awful, has no natural movements to twist and turn a player and is only a half decent finisher, his only real attribute is a bit of pace.

he's not good enough at anywhere near this level. And I think he knows it, hence the poor attitude

PSG in a different league, Villa flattered to only be a goal behind. PSG just had a slack five minutes. They have far more pace and cohesion, and the Villa defence look a shambles each time there is any danger. Rashford's only positive contribution was the short pass for the goal, other than that dire. Not sure who is supposed to be heading in the few cross balls they have put in.

Rashford is great at one touch football and a good finisher when he doesn't have time to think.

In a struggling team he is useless.

Them ****g drums

Decent goal Mc Ginn

Ooooh rasher

blimey!

3-2 Villa

Cmon

PSG have been in 2nd gear 2nd half, they'll step it up now.

Rashford must have read some of the comments here

didn't see that coming, tbh

Nearly the Villa equalizer

Chunky 1000 laid on Villa to win the Ch.Lge
Now 25s

PSG are the ultimate chokers of the century, this wouldn't even be their worst

Should be 5-5

Amazing scenes.

If Villa can do this to PSG imagine what RM can do to Arsenal

Villa easing off a little, gotta go for the throat still losing the tie overall...

Game on, for now at least, brilliant stuff.

PRT

Pressure reversal technique

Let them go 2 up then hit them,... Pardew special

What a chance that was.

Huge chance missed Asensio

Ffs should be 6-5

Villa to qualify touched just over 400.0

Sack him !  FFs !

Do it for the next King Billy

Giving Watkins less that 20 minutes is criminal

Dortmund 3-1 , need 2 more goals

ROGERS HAS HAD     A SHOCKER, and taking  RASHFORD off was criminal

Running out of time cmon Villa

Only 3 extra minutes.

perfect example of a manager using subs just because he can,5 subs of which only acencio has had so much as a kick

4 managers got the sack at man u trying to get something out of rasford has a  brilliant 10 mins and crackpot manager takes him off

decent effort in the end by Villa, fair play.

Can't believe Bayern are favs to beat Inter at the San Siro tomorrow

Good effort, just not enough.

Great fightback, no cigar unfortunately.

Can't imagine 3 minutes injury time at the Bernabeu if RM need a goal

Why on earth did they let in
**** with drums

Like psg home game
Crazy

Wasn't impressed with PSG at all.

any Sunday morning pub  manager would have got message get rash on the ball every chance you get,supposed elite manager drags him off, because he can

Very enjoyable game.

Well done villa, unlucky over the two legs should of knocked out lucky PSG

Based on this 2nd leg, Arsenal have nothing to worry about.

Good as PSG were in the first half there was plenty of positives to take from this game for Arsenal. Vinca committed Hari Kiri in the first half and it cost them.

We gave it a good go,the stadium was absolutely rocking.

Unfortunately our defence was the achilles heel as it has been over the last couple of seasons.

Probably for the best that Villa didn’t win. Can’t have an open bus parade if the streets are full of bin bags.

I like positive people. The glass is half full!

Rashford should have been left on but should have been hooked at HT too. He kept running straight into defenders and giving the ball away. Emery started him at centre forward. Everyone knows he's poor there and better out wide either side.

Hakimi ran from RB diagonally up the pitch to the pen spot area with absolutely nobody tracking him for both their goals.

Good effort from Villa and could have gone thru but gifted PSG the tie with their set-up first half.

I thought the PSG fans were as audible as Villa's.
