Drogba was stupid as hell to slightly slap Vidic. I have no idea how Chelsea decided who was going to take the PKs, but the order was all wrong. Ballack, Lampard, Beletti, Essien, Carvalho, then others. I have no idea why A. Cole and JT wanted to take a PK before people who have scored with their feet (though thankfully Cashley managed to get his in).
Ugh. Who knows how many more LFC semifinal defeats it will take us again to reach the Final.
One of the best moments for me was when Ronaldive failed to get his PK away. |
you honestly believe chelsea was the better team? really? ya, they hit the post twice, but come on, its not like man u didn't have their own great chances. Man u looked fresher and better conditioned throughout the game. Ferdinand had a pretty awful game and Terry had a freaking amazing game up to the missed PK but i think in the end the fact that it went to PKs showed how close the two teams were. I really don't think you can definitively say that one team was better than the other.
It was an entertaining game to watch and got a lot of coverage in the US. As a person not rooting for either team i thoroughly enjoyed the champs league final.
