Fantastic free kicks. He’d never scored one in 339 games !

Looks like Declan`s attitude was, "If you thought the first one was good, check this out". The second strike could not have been placed any better. Surely it was the game of his life. Arsenal need one more great game to reach the last four.

I never expected Arsenal to get anywhere near a draw never mind a comfortable win. The first time a player has scored 2 free kicks in a Champions league game, and what beauties they were. They bend on thar first one, wow.
The player that scored the 3rd was the player I was thinking off that got used as a striker when Arsenal were struggling with injuries. (A suggestion I made on another thread)

Arsenal home and dry, surely - or are they? Against any other opponent, I would say they`d be 95%+ to go through, but Real have made it a habit of rescuing seemingly lost causes in the CL in recent years.
A big factor in the Gunners` favour is that they don`t have to chase the game and leave themselves open on the counter to their lightning fast strikers. If they make it through, it will arguably be their finest ever European result.

Real have had many comebacks but never from a three goal deficit. They won’t turn this around either. I thought they were fortunate to get past their city rivals.

I`m fairly certain they overturned a heavy defeat v Anderlecht, perhaps in the UEFA Cup?
Just googled it. 0-3 in Brussels, 6-1 in Madrid. Long time ago, though. 1984. 🙂

Rice’s first goals from a free kick in 338 appearances…
You’ve got to imagine that this isn’t a skill he learnt in the last few weeks,
- amazing accuracy with plenty power, my gob was smacked…

He said in one of his post match interviews he normally hits it over the bar or it goes straight into the wall.
Did Real have shortest stature wall ever?

I watched the game on an Italian channel and I don`t think Real could have felt hard done by if they`d lost 4 or 5-0. I was also amazed that the Italian commentators were able to inform their TV audience that Rice had never previously score from a free kick in 338 previous games.
You might reasonably expect English commentators to have done their homework, but not those from another country.

That late goal may have killed the tie but Villa could very well pull back a 2 goal deficit. Remember a few years back when one team was leading 4 nil after the first leg,only to lose the match.
Villa are excellent going forward so I wouldn`t rule them out just yet. I also believe that Arsenal aren`t guaranteed to win the tie yet. Nothing is set in stone yet, apart from Barcelona.
