Last night everyone looked on to see Arsenal or Juventus pull off a shocker by upsetting the two European heavyweights, in the form of Barça and Bayern Munich respectively.
But all of our expectations were shattered by the lackluster of both teams. I was especially disappointed in particular by Juventus' display, giving up a wonderful first half two goal lead, and Arsenal night was even worse than I expected.
Juventus were two goals ahead before the half hour mark, and I've already chalked it up as the upset of the night, yes upset! Juventus were without there main striker Paulo Dybala and their Talisman Marchisio, but they managed to be two goals up before thirty minutes. But what happened next?
Bayern came back in the second half rejuvenated and were intent on proving to the whole world that they're a force to recon with in European football. Goals from Lewandowksi and Muller set them up for an extra time, which was a woeful one for Juve.
The match ended 4-2 in favor of Bayern and 6-4 on aggregate taking Bayern to the next round of the competition. This was the disappointment of the night, and it also proves the technical quality of Pep that made him one of the sort out coach in the world.
Talking about Arsenal's game is a waste of energy, there's nothing to talk about from the match. The both teams played their worst game ever. Barça won because of the quality of their front men, other than that, it's a woeful display from both teams.
Arsenal can't even string up three successful passes in the second half. After there goal, I thought they'd capitalize but MSN made them pay for their woeful display. I don't want to talk about the match, it's tearful to be reminded of how much quality Arsenal is lacking and with this kinda squad and display, Arsenal ain't going nowhere. This is their sixth exit in a row in the round of 16.
