    I loved his booking of the keeper - spot on.

    Football is a competitive sport, the whole idea that it's supposed to be entertaining is a sky/fan created myth.

    Some people may not like his style, but Clattenburg is a very good referee.

    I absolutely agree. However, I wasn't entertained and hoped to be.

    Just watched the highlights.

    The difference was the Villereal player squared it when in on goal, wheras Moreno blasted it high and wide instead of squaring it.

    Probably landed somewhere close toLovren's volley from the Dortmund game...

    Good for you, I don't see what point you're trying to make though. Football is supposed to be competitive, the entertainment is a result of said competitiveness.

    Good result for Sevilla last night away against Shaktar!! I like Sevilla but not surely I should morally as they are in this competition due to being a CL dropout so should cheer on either Villareal or Liverpool. How crucial will it be not conceding a goal? At this stage in both competitions there is not a lot of difference in their ability. Sevilla have one advantage over Shaktar due to the fact that they play much better teams than Shaktar on a regular basis, and I am not just referring to the elite in La Liga either.

    But they were in the CL due to their big success in the EL in the first place. Surely you can cut Sevilla some slack!
