II don't understand this criticism about "they scored 6 goals but didn't play a great game"

Well excuse me but I've been following this team and watching almost every game for the last two decades, and like any other team there's day like this (well, not like this, closer thing would be Depor vs Milan or Utd vs Bayern) that everything clicks together for the team to make history, and a lot of other games where you put 11 Angels in the field, they dance with the ball giving us one hell of a performance and end up losing 0-1 and out of the competition

What most people fail to see is that this club has reinvented itself in the last decade, we were the ones that always cracked under pressure, the bottlers that lost to Benfica with 3 posts, the same team that missed 4 penalties in another final in the 80's or that saw a lot of leagues go to Madrid after failing to close them. 20 years ago if you made a poll asking what club would be the first to come back from a 4-0 in the first leg Real, Bayern, Milan, Juve or United would be the main options, just a couple of people would be dumb enough to say Barcelona. We were that team that a lot of times played like the angels and lost anyway, while Madrid could win any game with their 9 scoring with the butt and for a Culé like me this is not just a magical night for all the obviuous reasons, this is also our vindication to say "No sir, comebacks are not just a Real Madrid thing anymore, we're not only equal to those guys when our players have to put their guts to create a miracle, we're now even better!"

"Look at Barca today. Two fluky goals, at great times. Cavani hits the post, misses another sitter, as does Di Maria. Small margins (LUCK) means the winner writes the history. If Arsenal had Barcelona's luck, rather than PSG's, the story and attitude would be so different.

Again.

WE PLAYED LIKE MEN. WE RATTLED BAYERN. No excuses just that I am proud of how we tried to play."

If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

Arsenal were more embarrassing as they were never in the tie at all. PSG just fell asleep for 7 minutes at the end of a game they had won

You will find that PSG have slept from minute 1 to 95 in the second leg.

Amusingly, it was somewhat of a role reversal. PSG produced an Arsenal-esque bottle job in the 2nd leg, meanwhile Arsenal were simply brutally outclassed in both legs, like your typical French side or Douglas Bader.

PSG tossing that big a lead when all they had to do was effectively park a bus is definitely the worst of the two results. Arsenal's is just funny.

The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes, look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
