I'm trying not to complain too much, but this is such an awful game. From some of the refereeing to Porto playing and acting like twats... and then having to hear the commentators spout shit like "altitude sickness..." wtf are you on about? They're not playing on fucking Everest.

Sorry for the mini rant. I need more coffee lol

Yeah, I couldn't tell you. Maybe I missed a previous joke or part of their "banter". But if we played a shit pass like they had at that point, it would have been put down to carelessness or "nerves".

Unless the guy just meant jet lag, but it's the same timezone anyway, so I don't see how that tracks, lol

What fucking coverage are you on lol???

I think it's TNT Sports? Not sure, but there's a Scottish guy and some English guy.

I think the Scotsman excused a shit pass from Porto as "atlitude sickness". It may have been in jest, but I don't see how? It was just a bizarre comment
