Champions League final roundup…
So the Champions League (and thus the football season) ends with AC Milan winning 2-1. It just had to happen. After Inzaghi chested the ball in to the back of the net in the first half, it was always going to be a tough task for Liverpool. Especially when they conceded a second eight minutes before the end of the match (Kaka throughball, Inzaghi goal).
Despite Kuyt managing to pull a goal back two minutes before then end, it was always going to be too little too late.
The classic Big-Match player Steven Gerrard, who had never before failed to score in a Cup final was unable to do the business when it mattered hitting a one-on-one chance straight at the goalkeeper with the crap hair (ie Dida).
The Beeb should hire me to do previews rather than the douche Alan “100% sure†Hansen. I blame him. He jinxed it for Liverpool. Liverpool would’ve been better off walking under a ladder holding hands, before splitting at a pole and then allowing a black cat to walk in front of each of the players. And then starting with a 15 goal disadvantage. They would surely have had a chance than.
Other interesting things…
- Gerrard refused to touch Gattuso’s hand when he passed him at the end. Great sportsmanship Stevie! Maybe I’m being harsh. Maybe after the match Gattuso game to Gerrard and said, “I eez got a leetle eecky on my hand… smayl!â€
- Inzaghi is still a cheating whinger. The most blatant display of time wasting seen since I was waiting to start studying for my Maths exam.
- Players who cried :
Gerrard – seemed a bit teary
Kewell – Rubbed his eyes a lot. The poor Australian fairy!
Inzaghi – Cried with happiness, before spitting into the Cup! YAY!
Note: Excellent support by both sets of fans. There was also a pitch invasion at the start of the second half. I assume (hope?) it was a streaker, because the camera’s refused to show her. It was a her… and she looked like Angelina Jolie 5 years ago. At least that’s how my mind see’s it. My minds a Perv
