CL Final

[JackWilson]

I stopped watching the live broadcast after half-time then caught the rebroadcast without knowing the result, and wow what a fantastic game. I think Milan were a bit unlucky to lose that. Obviously they messed up but they did have by far the better of the game except for about 20 minutes of the 2nd half. Amazing comeback by Liverpool though. They showed their class.

Am I the only person who thinks Cisse, Baros and Luis Garcia (admittedly he has his moments) are just not good enough?

Dudek was hilarious. The spaghetti legs imitation wasn't perfect but still made me laugh. I can see him practising in front of a mirror at home. Anyway, my money would definitely have been on Milan in the shootout since Dida is just an amazingly athletic goalkeeper and his forte is reflex- and penalty saves. The way he saved Riise's penalty was impressive. I know Riise telegraphed the kick but getting to the post (diving past it in fact) was an amazing leap. Smicer wrong-footed Dida BEAUTIFULLY though.

Anyway, really fun game to watch and CONGRATULATIONS to all Liverpool fans...the European journey was something special that stands pretty much alone in the modern Liverpool era.

(BTW, I still think Man Utd's 2 goals in injury time - NOT extra time - were more dramatic but this was the best comeback ever [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

EDIT: Just opening a bit of a discussion with Liverpool fans here: having only 1 man up front might have been fine for a Cup competition but if Liverpool don't change their tactics up front (especially using more width) they're gonna struggle again in the Premiership next season. Opinions?
