The Champions League league phase closed out in full Matchday Mayhem, and the boys are here to break it all down. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola unpack an unhinged UCL matchday 8 that concluded with a dramatic goalkeeping goal for Benfica - and of course Tony has strong opinions about it (05:54)!
