00:00As I did there that was just so good guys. I want your reaction because I mean your mile that man there
00:05Looking like a man among boy, but being the boy among men today
00:09I just I couldn't take my eyes off him either. He's so special really is Rio said it's remarkable
00:15To watch him he makes everything look so easy
00:17No, and this is the best of the best size of this into team defensive one of the best
00:21Yeah, the only way they could stop him though. It was with four three four defenders. He's such a
00:27Such a special player. Brilliant game credit to into you know
00:30They came to play we say boss will give you a chance with the high line. They did that
00:34But your mom put on a clinic in that first there and this second leg
00:39This could be anything Mecca. Yeah, he's getting his commemorative hundred game shirt there off Andre Ter Stegen the
00:45Captain the goalkeeper who's injured at this moment, but yeah, it adds everything it shows how frail Barcelona are defensively
00:51But going forwards they're absolutely electric aren't they?
00:54You can't take your eyes off off a lot of the players and it's a brilliant performance today is the chairman as well
00:59The president Juan Laporta gives him a round of applause and rightly so
01:03I remember saying as well
01:05It's almost like boss don't ever feel like they're beaten so even when they go 2-0 down they stay calm and they're like no
01:10Don't worry. We'll get back into this. Yeah, even at 2-0
01:12I said this is not over you know these guys there you know
01:15They're just they're a proper team. I think we've seen in the past this Barca team. They really struggled
01:19I mean not surprised at Dumfries in the matter match. I mean two goals for as a defender, but this this Barca team are different
01:25Even even that picture there at the end, you know 2-0 down at the start of the game
01:29They find a way they hang in there and
01:32They're one they're one of the best teams to watch with PSG every game is entertainment. I mean it's chaos at the back
01:37Yeah, but going forward the absolute class does make it brilliant to watch for inter
01:42How would they feel going there doing what they do going 2-0 up and then being dragged back into that game?
01:48Yeah, it's strange isn't it the relief probably I mean before the game
01:51If you said you'll take a draw and you need to win at home at the San Siro to qualify for the final
01:56They'd have snapped your hands off, but I presume today because they were under pressure for so long
02:00The game was so full of different emotions for them 2-0 up. Oh, we're going to win 2-0 down
02:052-2 a half time
02:07We're going to lose the game then to get back in
02:09martinez went off as well didn't he laura latara martinez went off they get a goal disallowed for offside by you know
02:15a toenail so they'll probably feel
02:18Different emotions, but really they should be thrilled to bits when they're home and they're through wasn't it a bunion
02:24I never want to hear that word again by the way in commentary. No
02:27Disgusting words
02:30Oh my goodness. How many bunions you got Rio anyway?
02:32Look there's loads more european football across tnt sports

03:10before we get back to domestic matters that was my coffee cup sorry on
03:14Saturday as aston villa push for europe and then sees them hosting fulham in the premier league
03:19there's just so much football so much football to get your teeth stuck into and so many goals as
03:23well that we're going to take you through too then next week we're going to be back to champions league
03:28action we're actually going to be in paris that is for the return leg of psg against arsenal so
03:34arsenal fans hoping they can come back from 1-0 down at the emirates that we saw last night
03:39on top of all of that football there's also some cycling to enjoy as well if you fancy a little bit
03:43of break for a football this on tmt sports the home of cycling it brings you every stage of the
03:48giro d'italia and that is the world's top riders including britain's tom pick up they're going to
03:53be tackling the route to rome from friday the 9th of may whoo okay i'm going to catch my breath for
04:00a minute and then we're going to go through all of these goals my goodness started at 30 seconds in
04:04with tiram it just got better and better they went 2-0 up into milan and then they need a little bit of
04:09magic a spark it came from the mean yamal then it went 3-2 then it went 3-0 oh my goodness all of
04:15that coming up next don't go anywhere oh welcome back now we get a chance to go through what was
04:27a phenomenal game of football absolutely breathless those two teams putting on quite a show for us
04:32only the first leg as well we've got a second leg to enjoy next week too goals coming from tiram
04:37dumfries yamal torres rafinha car it was amazing wasn't it finished 3-3 in the end what a semi-final
04:44first leg um guys i loved it listen we're going to dive straight into it and just get into these
04:48goals because we've got six to show you and a goal that was disallowed by it was a crazy game
04:53first of all of course it was a great game to watch but uh not to play because it was very hard but
05:00we've done our best i think we could have done even better but uh it's football everything can happen
05:06we're like uh leading for 20 minutes to zero but it's not that we're thinking that we won the game already
05:13it's just that uh barca put lots of pressure on us they were very good with the ball we've done
05:18our best uh unfortunately we couldn't keep the three two the score but this football so we have to
05:25to think about the second leg i've got to ask you before i mean i'll go backwards in a second but
05:29i've got to ask you about the goal that was disallowed by a minuscule something we don't know what
05:36it was what did it feel like for you yeah i feel very good unfortunately maybe it was two three
05:45centimeters but this is football you cannot do anything i think the my will was too much that
05:53i wanted to score this goal and maybe i rushed to go into the into the into offside but this is full
05:59i hope to to score in the second leg let's see well this is it so you get your two goals very quick
06:05succession then suddenly there is an onslaught from barcelona one after the other after the other and
06:10then they suddenly equalize and then you go into halftime what did the manager say to you at halftime
06:16well we're confident that we can do better and uh it's not easy to play against barcelona because they
06:22are a very good team young team talented uh they have a very good uh possession of the ball they know
06:28how to play football and uh we've done our best i think we could have done a bit better but uh of
06:34course it wasn't easy so the only thing we he said is keep your head up and uh keep doing what you're
06:40doing because you're doing great so it's it's what he said it's finally poised for next week but of course
06:46you take it home next week and that is where you can make the difference well we hope and uh we're
06:52going to do our best obviously it's not going to be easy because uh we lost our captain uh our uh
06:58leader lautaro martinez but we have to try to do our best even to replace him and to play without him
07:05thank you very much for talking to us thank you the qatar in there with their freshman chowdhury
07:11listen they're going to be delighted with that managing to go to barcelona getting the game at
07:163-3 and then taking it back to theirs next week um but i wanted to show you something that rio
07:20ferdinand put out because obviously they're playing against a team with this young man in it
07:25rio put this out during the game as a pure football talent i'm going as far as to say i think laminya
07:30mal is on another level to any player playing the game in the top five leagues in world football 17
07:36years old truly unbelievable i'm not sure many people will argue with that why don't we go and
07:40check in with rio and ali very very busy um guys just what an insane match to be involved with to be
07:50able to watch there and and commentate on and another stand-up performance from lamin yamal rio
07:57yeah that was multitasking at its best there guys but um yeah it was um no you know what we were just
08:02talking me and the guys here and just saying we were in the first half we're probably one of the best
08:08seats in the house we're sitting just behind where laminya mal was doing his damage and just
08:12mesmerizing this whole stadium and just to see a young 17 year old i was talking about
08:17the amount of times yes he had the ball the amount of times he impacted a sequence of play but every
08:22part of his foot he was using today the different detail the different way he was moving his body to
08:27receive the ball just every facet of his game today was on show and it was just truly i thought quite
08:32beautiful to be here to be a part of i thought it was amazing as good as 45 minutes for an individual
08:38i've seen maybe in a long certainly in a long long time and i think rio makes a great point credible for
08:44a 17 year old i mean i'm not did he mean that i'm not sure if he meant he probably did it's this
08:49decision making as well i think obviously he's 100 appearances he's 17 years old 100 appearances
08:54and and that the way he's just taken over games for moments and it's just it's just great to see that and
08:59i think when i talk about the best pure talent he has the ability to play different ways in a
09:05football match he can affect the game through just passing and being a creator like a playmaker he can
09:10also affect the game by running past people and eliminating players and then finishing and to do
09:16that i think makes him a very unique proposition
09:20one thing i was also going to say obviously ali we're talking a lot about about that performance from
09:25laminomar and we totally should but we can't forget as well inter milan managing to to go there and
09:31actually get a result out of this game too a draw to then take it back home that was an incredible
09:36performance from them as well
09:40ah laura if somebody had offered said to them they'll come to this place in barcelona score three
09:44goals and get a draw they've been your hand off and they've been absolutely delighted but they will
09:50we know what football is like guys they'll be a little bit tinged with sadness at the offside goal
09:55and the fact that they were up in the game two nothing and three two but again hindsight's the greatest
10:00thing in the world if somebody said to the manager before the game you're gonna go away
10:04come away from here with a draw go back to the sans hero level pegging you'd have been absolutely thrilled
10:10they've come here they've attacked against a team who if you can time your runs from the middle of the
10:16the park i heard the boys talking about it they play with as high a line as a top a top team as i've
10:20seen in a long long time they've got that much faith in their own ability going forward but it doesn't
10:27come without its pearls and they will give up chances because they play with that high line
10:32and if you can get large can time the runs from the middle of the park then you'll get chances
10:36what i would say is well i don't think there's any i don't think we we were surprised today by the way
10:40that inter milan played and made it difficult at times for this this uh barcelona team because i mean when
10:45this when the knockout stages came out and we saw the fixtures i actually picked inter milan to get
10:50to the final just because i think their formation and the way how they're so well drilled gives them
10:55an edge in games where they might not have the personnel in terms of like the the the laminia mouths
10:59and the pedris of this world and them special players but as a team as a group and as a well-held
11:05machine who play very efficiently i think they're one of the top teams around in that sense you know the one
11:10thing real as well though and i don't know the boys will agree they'll must they'll must their captain we
11:14have mikaterian talking about it there he is a key key player for martinez you know he's involved
11:20he's very clever obviously a very good a very good football player but you can see the value and the
11:25importance he is to their side and it looks as though it's a muscle engine and you'd be very very
11:29doubtful for the second game out of thought totally agree right you two thank you so much go and enjoy
11:34your night in barcelona rio and ali let loose in barcelona oh my goodness uh right guys uh next up
11:40we're going to look ahead to the second legs because arsenal not necessarily have it all to do
11:44but they are one nil down against a very good psg side only took four minutes for us to put
11:51themselves ahead in that first tie arsenal not much in return can they go and do it in paris next
11:57week we'll discuss that next for an assistant champions league semi-final since wesley schneider
12:03who also did it for inter could that be a good omen for you oh that's a nice aesthetic you didn't
12:09know that no i didn't know no before i didn't know that i would score and assist so uh no of course
12:15i'm very proud of the performance today and we have to continue and work hard and we are looking
12:20forward to the next matches how hard is it to play against this barcer side and you're a team that
12:24defensively so strong and actually it's it's a clash of two very different styles yeah two different
12:29teams uh i think uh until now we concede uh one goal i think the champions league and we scored three
12:35so that is also uh no we didn't cause it one uh more i think yeah i'm sorry uh but you know what
12:42i mean we are very good defensively we concede uh it's very unlike you in this game yeah so yeah
12:48this shows how good they are and um yeah very good team but we have also a lot of quality looking
12:53forward to next week are you excited yes very much yes good luck thank you very much
13:00so are we danzel so are we can't wait for that right okay um let's turn our attention now um to the
13:06other semi-final second leg that we can look forward to um because arsenal are going to be back in action
13:11and listen they they do have it all to do there only there's only one goal between them but for some
13:15reason it just felt a little bit like the arsenal that um fans i suppose came to expect didn't
13:21necessarily turn up did you see it like that mac or slightly differently um i saw it slightly differently i
13:28thought they're playing better opposition which they should be doing because of course it's it's
13:32a semi-final game psg had a different side to what what they faced in the group stage we know that
13:38since the turn of the year they've been excellent and it just i just thought psg were at full strength
13:44arsenal are not we know that they're missing part they haven't got a center forward and i just thought
13:49it showed and it's going to be a really difficult game i was in paris when uh paris sensu man
13:54battered liverpool but liverpool got a result we saw it against aston villa how hard it was for them
13:59to go to paris and get a result and their ground is a very difficult place to go and play let alone
14:05go and play and get a result um so i just think they've got it all in front of the arsenal i really
14:10do i'd like them to do it of course but i think if they do it would be the great one of the greatest
14:14results they'll ever achieve anything can happen i don't think it was bad as everyone thought i thought
14:19actually i thought the second half i thought they matched psg i don't think they were bad yeah i thought the
14:22first 30 minutes they struggled and that wasn't because they struggled i thought psg were just
14:26brilliant with the ball i think they had 70 70 75 position and then i think they started to grow into
14:31the game at about 30 minutes i thought declan was brilliant but they need more from the flare
14:35players you know saka was kept quiet probably by mendez udegaard was was pretty quiet no habits
14:41obviously had a big impact but they're underdogs but they can without question do it i think
14:47defensively they've been so solid goalkeepers great and i think that they can go there and
14:53spring a surprise the problem is i think the best team we've seen so far is psg yeah that's they play
14:57like the first 30 minutes yeah i just don't think anybody can live with i mean you can't you you cannot
15:03see psg not scoring if that makes the score weird sense they're going to score one they're going to
15:07score two so arsenal gonna have to go there and get three to get into in with a chance of of winning this
15:12game and i just think it's just a step too far they needed a result at at the emirates i really
15:18that's what i really believe you're right yeah and we can still say of course they can go and get a
15:21victory of course they can but looking at what psg have achieved since january since dembele's been
15:27back in the team since they since they signed gavaric galia from napoli in the transfer window they've
15:33just gone to another level and defensively they look really strong that's what sets them apart from
15:39everybody else and sets them apart from barcelona for me defensively the song and in midfield and
15:44attack they look so dangerous they almost need to do this they almost need to go to paris and get
15:49an early goal and and try and shut the crowd up because the crowd over there in the park de prance
15:54are going to be a lot more raucous than they were at the emirates aren't they yeah and usman
15:58dembele is in the form of his life kabar tell you every time he touches the ball you feel like
16:02someone's gonna happen i'm with maca you look at that midfield fabian maris vitina
16:05shao neves what a player he is by the way so and they've got they've got due or they've got
16:10barcola they can play with the two best wing back two best fullbacks in the competition donnarumma's in
16:14the form of his life so maca's right they can do it but they're going to need a really special game
16:20they need to be efficient in front of goal like against real and defend incredibly well but um
16:25i hope they do it but it's going to be tough yeah martin edigar did take a little bit of criticism for
16:29perhaps um not turning up on on a stage where he desperately needed to
16:33did you think that he was overawed by the by the i don't think he was overawed i just think he
16:38come across a really good team in the semi-finals this is what happens i've lost semi-finals in
16:43champions league so has he you come across a team that are better than you or perform better than
16:47you on the night he's not being overawed i thought he was a little bit safe at times i thought a lot
16:52of the times that the arsenal players because of the way the result was going and the crowd not
16:57they didn't turn against them but there was a few moans when they give the ball away i thought they
17:00became safe instead of the i have a needle passed through the gap trying to do something they went
17:06sideways and sideways and i just thought they didn't want to be criticized i thought the crowd
17:10got after marino a little when they go over there in terms of it's a criticism as well leveled at
17:15michael arteta that perhaps he's inexperienced in in these kind of stages of competitions as well
17:21and that he's not necessarily got the experience to take them through what can they do what do they
17:25have to have in their minds well i think do you think they have the substitutes to to change it
17:30against this team no they probably don't but one thing i would say is i think they need to play
17:34uruguay probably needs to play with a bit more risk like you know he plays in the premier league
17:37when he gets it play that i thought he was trying to play too perfect and i don't think you have to be
17:42for just play like your martin just put it into an area i think a lot of the goals we've seen
17:46actually in these champions league quarterfinals have all been crosses five of the six today were crosses
17:51get the ball wide and cross it saka's going to play better you can guarantee have to yeah so
17:56partay will come in you would think deklin and they could play a bit higher and they missed him
18:00and udegaard will obviously i think he'll play as well he when he gets it he needs to he sees the
18:04game almost as good as anyone just trust yourself play the pass i mean it'd be interesting to see
18:08what team arsenal put out at the weekend it'd be interesting to see paris and jermaine have won their
18:11league they've won it by a country mile already so they can put anybody out but you know arsenal need
18:16to go and get results as well just to guarantee themselves in second which you should be fine so and you don't
18:20want to risk anybody you don't want to get injuries so it'll be it it's a conundrum for for michael
18:25it is isn't it i can't wait to watch it okay uh it's all about europe and conference leagues it's
18:29such an incredible game to watch but it is only half time of course what was it like to play in
18:34how much are you looking forward to the second leg it's a nice game to play you know champions
18:39league is always nice to play semi-final maybe even more because both teams really want to go to
18:44the final i think you could see that today uh both teams played their heart out and what you say it's
18:49half time it's still a draw so let's see next week it was such a tough start was there ever a point where
18:54you thought oh this is very difficult or did you always know that you could just come back with the
18:58firepower that you have no we knew it was going to be going to be hard and difficult because inter is
19:04a very good team um it was a bad start from us that's true uh no but we of course we know it's
19:11going to be difficult and to know down even more but we have a lot of confidence in our abilities and
19:15we knew that we could we could make the comeback in 13 champions league games you guys have scored
19:2140 goals and conceded 20 we're looking at a side that play with such high risk and high reward what's
19:28that like it's nice because uh we like to play attacking football to dominate the game to score
19:34goals of course we take some risk but i think uh we also get a lot of reward from it so i think we
19:40will keep playing like this and hopefully it will get gets us to the final and with so many forward
19:47thinking players and star players that you have lamina mar rafinha who were you know doing excellently
19:52this season your job is so important and i think statistically this was one of your best games did you feel
19:58like that when you were in the moment i feel good at the moment i don't think it was one of my best
20:03games i think i have a lot more to offer but um so statistics don't always tell you the always the
20:09story it was not a bad game of course but uh i think i've i've played better games but uh i feel
20:15good at the moment i'm i'm fit i'm in good shape so uh looking forward to the games coming yeah exactly
20:22you've got some brilliant games to come you're in this beautiful moment you've won the copa del rey
20:26doing so well in the league as well do you feel like there's something special brewing in this
20:31side at the moment because from the outside with the players that you have the way that you're
20:34playing under hansi it feels like like that yeah the atmosphere in the team is very good
20:40there's a lot of energy uh we're playing good games and they have enough of that and now we're
20:44going to focus on three premier league clubs that are in action in europe tomorrow all in the
20:49semi-finals it's a huge night for manchester united spurs chelsea and also their respective managers
20:56well ruben they say nothing comes easy but was the leon game even more of a roller coaster than
21:01what you could possibly have imagined yeah it was a was a special moment a special game
21:07we need to to give credit not just to the players but also to the fans
21:11he's a special player anything can happen in old trafford but this is in the past we need to do
21:17better this time but can you take from that how determined manchester united are to win this
21:24i think i think it is a little bit a proud thing because this season in premier league
21:31and we should be judged by premier league not european football you feel that the players really want
21:38this is really important for us not just for the title to win a title but also to to secure
21:44champions league next year that is really important for for our club we stand here on the eve of a
21:50european semi-final how are you feeling about it yeah buzzing um you know it's it's exciting because
21:57uh you know we've obviously had a real difficult year but if you just separate yourself from that
22:02um irrespective of how your year's gone the opportunity to to play in a semi and the opportunity
22:07to get to a final doesn't come around often so um you know i think when i sort of came you know two
22:13years ago that was kind of the biggest i get i guess carried in front of us was can we bring success
22:19to the club you know that's what it's been crying out for and you know obviously in in not the ideal
22:25circumstances but the opportunity is there and i think the players sense that and um you know they
22:30want to leave their mark and and they want to make an impact at this football club and we've got a great
22:34opportunity to do that okay all in action tomorrow night in europe and matches united owen tough task
22:42in an athletic club how difficult is this going to be for them it would be really difficult i think
22:46athletic club are fourth in la liga but to be fair you'd almost have to believe you know after
22:51the way they got through in the last round um this is their season you know in in in the premier league
22:56they're the nowhere same as tottenham they need champions league football it would change
23:02the perception of everything the whole season but it will be very very tough maca that's a tough
23:07place to go and play the final's going to be there as well isn't it so of course there's an excellent
23:10center for them to get to the final athletic club a lot of pressure for them also a lot of pressure for
23:15spurs as well because this is a a very good chance for them to retrieve something from a terrible it's an
