Seeing what Villarreal are actually capable of makes me think Emery badly miscalculated at Anfield.

I’m usually the first to defend keepers, often to a fault, but this has been horrid.
Emery parked it at half as much as Klopp shididn’t he?

Earlier this year, Angel Correa of Atletico scored a goal from midfield over Rulli as he was way too far up the pitch and scrambling desperately to get back to goal. He's prone to poor positioning.
I break out Shirley every time I see poor goalkeeping. It’s an old habit.
I love seeeing the Villarreal fans cheering the players on a lap of honour. They've punched above their weight in this tourney. Gave Liverpool a real scare.
Edit: These Liverpool players are a lot more low key in their celebrations. For a lot of them this will be their third final. KInd of reminds me of the Liverpool teams of yore in the old European Cup. Getting to semis and finals was what they did.

Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards are chugging beers live on TV.
This should be an interesting end to the postgame coverage.

Need a tall angle shot to fit Crouch.
I’m trying to think back to the last time Klopp’s squad we’re so thoroughly outclassed for a half, and it’s been a long while. Agree with @SocrManiac - Emery had more to work with and should have been more creative & aggressive at Anfield.

The font City is using for their numbers makes me wonder: Can you arrange the squad to spell “BOOBIES” while standing on their heads?
All of City's attempts are at least on frame. Real Madrid is skiing every ball on every attempt so far. Perhaps nerves or pressing too hard early.
KDB's touch seems a bit off thus far. Couple of times there his first touch wasn't as cultured as one normally expects.
Boy, if that much contact from Modric can send Laporte to the ground, everyone should be wary of breath to heavil near him.
World Class shirt pulling there. Beautiful grip...shame he seems to have hurt himself in the process. I'm sure he'll be fine.
Casemiro was the player who caught my eye that first half, but not for the right reasons. Dunno how he never got a card.
I fancy Madrid to score.
Vinicius Jr. being able to put pressure on the back line and create space for Benzema, at some point that will produce a goal.
