Nonetheless, as one of the better sides in the competition, we will be one of the favourites. Liverpool were overwhelming favourites this year, and now they're headed out. It's difficult to win knockout competitions.
But we were a better team than Zagreb. A defeat doesn't change that.
No one's saying we're guaranteed to win it if we give it a proper go, but if we're in it, we have a chance to win it and we'll be among the favourites to do so.
The ref was perfectly placed, though. Looked right at it from a fitting distance. But I didn't expect him to send him off either, even though it was one of the clearest reds you'll see all season.
We've been close, though. We arguably should've won the league in 15/16, and we were also close (and very good) in 16/17. We also got to a CL final for the first time in our history, and had the game stolen from us in the first minute.
