Strange CL semifinal. Normal result but unreal football.

STs can block shots of midfielders in this game

I didn't say they can't. I said that 1 MC and 4 attacking players is not a parked bus.
The attacking players can defend but there are still many holes in the middle.

And no, 10 vs 11 isn't an insurmountable deficit even at the professional level

When you are with 10 players and THAT formation, it's a BIG deficit.
