Well my football team (Liverpool) were playing in the champions league semi final last night against chelsea. At the start they seemed to have an impossible task to acheive as in the first leg they lost 3-1 at home and so they would have to win 3-0 at chelsea, something nobody has ever done in the champions league.
Well we had a good first half of football and the tide seemed to have changed, liverpool were winning 2-0 with a stunning free kick from Aurelio, and a great penalty by Alonso. ut then things took a nasty turn, Chelsea equalised through a mistake by our keeper and then a cracker of a free kick by one of their players (Alex). then chelsea took the lead with agreat goal by Frank Lampard, I couldn't believe it, with 10 minutes left liverpool had to score three goals once again to win the tie.
And then another turn happened, in a frantic 90 seconds Lucas scored a goal for liverpool, it may have had a deflection from a chelsea defender to help it in but it was a goal never the less. And then some 50-60 seconds later Riera made his way up the left hand side and [produced a wonderful cross that dirk kuyt got a head to and put in the back of the net. The score was now 4-3 to liverpool but 6-5 on aggregate to chelsea. We had one more goal to score in 8 minutes and we would have won on away goals. But it wasnt to be, frank lampard scored another goal for chelsea and the tie was over. the game finished 4-4 bt they won on aggregate. Now we have to focus on the premier league if we have a hope of winnig any silver ware, and I hope greatly that Manchester Unitd slip up under pressure. They have looked extremely shakely and have only just been winning games with scores like 3-2 and 2-1 in the last few minutes. Liverpool however have scored loads of goals starting with thrashing man u 4-1, then aston villa 5-0 then fulham 1-0, then blackburn 4-0. And this was after beating real madrid 4-0.
I just hope that we havent missed our chance with all the draws early in the season to teams we should have beaten easily. At the end of the day theres always next year.. YNWA :D
