Re: The Official Football Thread

When I saw Torres clear at the end I was like, "That's odd... where the heck did their defenders go?"

But thoroughly entertaining match, nonetheless.

What's more funny is that every highlights video I go to some butthurt Barcelona supporter (if such things exist) is calling for offside.

Clearly they do not know the rules of football to be watching such a huge game.

Actually it's so good that next time I play FIFA 12, I'm totes trying that move out.


If only I could figure out how to do that intricate, direct and through passing that Barca does... gah.

We would of qualified regardless of whether torres had scored or not. But what an amazing game. Absolutely AMAZING. 2-0 down, captain sent off, against the best team in the world (quite brilliant how guardiolas barca have NEVER beaten chelsea and lio messi has NEVER scored against chelsea). To come back from all that and defend and defend like champions is just magnificent. And now we're in the final anything can happen. I mean if bosingwa of all people can play at centre back then ANYTHING can happen

Maybe money does buy you wins. Liverpool excused.

Though it's Europa League for Chelski unless you actually win the UCL.

Yeah won't be happening.

yeah, could be mourinho's last season at real before he moves onto another challenge and he could have conquered both europe and spain before the left.

Looks like Guardiola is stepping down as Barca manager at the end of the season.

Michael Owen that fuckwit is probably thinking the same thing. Hoping for a chance he is never going to get.

Suppose. Or a neutral. I just think they're fascinating.

I hate how I heard FIFA want to do "other measures" to not have penalty kicks to decide a game anymore. Like they were considering like taking players off every 5 minutes or counting number of corners or least yellow cards...

Penalty kicks... the drama, the excitement. It's "pure". It involves the point of the game - to score a goal.


But I agree - it sucks to be on the losing team. I remember when Man U won the Champions League in 2008? Frigging John Terry just had to slip.

Lol OzKo means serious business when he's swearing.

Harsh.

Though he'll never relive his glory days as the 'Wonderboy' when he played for Pool. He'll probably move to China or Qatar to play for a cash/oil plenty team that are willing to provide over inflated wages to washed out footballers.
