Interesting one from the Copa del Rey final.
Not sure how I feel about it, if it was a Reading player - you probably say its great and if it happened against you - you would probably be pretty aggrieved.

Personally don’t see the debate here, surely he had to do that?

He did, but with only 5 minutes to go in extra time, I don’t think the advantage of having 1 extra player could play out to Athletico’s favour that much. Yes, the player could’ve missed the 1-on-1 but I would just feel a bit aggrieved if that had happened against Reading, in a playoff final, for example.
I know they’re two different sports and I don’t like being rugby into a football conversation but if that had been in a rugby game, Real Madrid would’ve been awarded a penalty try.

Not sure they would have been - as the exact equivalent would be him being tripped (not tackled) but having say the full back covering who is well placed to tackle him - so no guarantee a try would have been scored.
The Real defender would have felt he had no choice but to do it and it is probably one of the last grey areas in the sport where in very specific circumstance the offending team benefits - if he had done that 15 mins earlier then I doubt we would even be having this conversation.

There is at least one game that is only available to view for free if you're in Ireland.

He's ridiculous, isn't he? 31 in 23 games now this season, with a goal every 48 minutes. I'd like to see Norway make it through the Euro 2020 play-offs just to see him at the tournament.

he is an absolute monster
if it is true that he has a €60M buy out clause in his contract (kicking in from June 2021 i think) then he is going to have his pick of clubs too

Dortmund still turn a €40m profit on that though.
