Well we all sat there screaming at the TV, Nervous wrecks, but ...

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

We did it. Liverpool, Liverpool, Liverpool/:'

YEsSSS!!!!


When you walk through a storm hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.

Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.

I like to think that whoever designed marine life was thinking of it as basically an entertainment medium. That would explain some of the things down there, some of the unearthly biological contraptions

Bleh...I was out with the score but who cares. We are still in the final and well, we beat Juventus and Chelsea who everyone said we had no chance against and now Milan (who we will probably face) will be expected to beat us but who cares, we will beat them as well

Liverpool - Chelsea 1-0.

Liverpool are through to Istanbul.

I said it would be 2-1 in Second leg earlier and still think it will. I think Chelsea will score first though but Liverpool will bring it back and go through

Soccer is the best sport in the world, most countries in the world play it! American Football is good but why so much padding if your that much of a man playing it?

Rugby is also great, hbut I will always prefer soccer (weird saying soccer, so used to football)

hey fat, this thread is about "soccer" anyway.
I don't care about american football

Football has had its death and injuries because it is such a physical sport.

Rugby doesnt have 250 lb linemen nailing the ball carrier, or running back. Rugby doesnt have the speed of the Safetys and other defensive backs in the nfl.

Football is such a hard hitting sport is the only reason we have to wear pads.

Soccer is just pointless. WHOA I PUT A BALL IN GOAL WHOA!!!

The U.S. of A is the only country man enough to play the real football and this is why its not an olympic sport. Id love to see any other countries american football team and try to play even college players. It wouldnt be funny. No offense to anyone ,Im just defending the sport I love, put my heart into, and play for 10 weeks out of the year.

Yes, Gilbert Agius still play for Valletta & he's a very good player. No, it wasn't a one off game & i also think that he should play in a better league than ours. He's also a great guy.

I only call Football "soccer" because i'm so used to calling it "soccer". Only because most people around here don't understand what i'm talking about when i say Football. They all think i'm talking about other sports. Yes, i agree and think everyone should call it Football. It's just hard for some people to break old habits.

jason pisani
does gilbert agius still play for Valletta?
i remember when i was on holiday in malta and we went to see valletta vs barry town in teh champs league qulifiers, 3-2 to the maltese. agius had an amazng game. i always wondered if it was a one-off or if he should have been playing in a better league.

Don't call it soccer.......... it's Football.
Football is a world wide sport & it's even played in the Olympics.

Let's hope to see 2 very good & balanced games. Both Liverpool & Juventus are good teams, with lots of world class football players.

Yeah, there are no deaths in rugby!

I have seen 10x worse injurys in NFL than Rugby and NFL use all padding and everything so they wear padding to protect themselves and Rugby players just get on with it

i dont remember any deaths from rugby in england for years! if any at all!

none at the world cup?

none in the 6 nations?

You have to be joking ?

Yes, a kicker doesnt involve much talent ,but most kickers were soccer players at one point in time.

A linebacker is the toughest hitting back on the defense. A. Football requires instant reflexes and very much talent. I play football myself.

Yes, we wear padding because we are smart. While you rugby players are sitting in the hospital about to die from a hit were just sittin around laughing about it. That stats show.

american football is a rubbish sport. you have players who do nothing but come on and kick the ball once before being taken off. It's really badly designed so that the first 10 minutes of any seection are tiny tiny gains in downs, but then the clock starts descending and there's a rush of points as they start throwing long passes. you may as well play 3 minute quarters. kickers and linebackers in american football just aren't athletes. it involves absolutely no talent or invention whatsoever, unlss you're a quarterback or runnning back. Even then you're not expected to improvise whatsoever.
basketball is the only american sport whihc works as a sport, where all the players have to be competent at all the elements of the game. and the man who invented it is a great-uncle of mine.
champions league-wise, liverpool will get slaughtered. they've had some horrible injuries, and they barely have a team to string together. I'm expecting milan to win again. they just can't be breached.

I personally play Rugby League (the roughest sport ever )

This is the champions league, where some of the best clubs play. This is some of the finest soccer in the world and is great to watch.

But yes, some soccer matches are boring to watch. But world cup, Euro, Champions league, and English premier league matches are all usually great to watch.

And i'll prefer to watch a soccer match over a american football match any day

I like NFL just prefer Rugby and I agree with PJ, this thread wasn`t for NFL it was for football (or what you call soccer)

i just follow harry Kewell(sp?) i like rugby league way more than soccer i play rugby league now and i have played soccer, id have to say rugby is way better.

american football.....a mens sport! HAHAHAH

its nothing but rugby with padding on so nobody gets hurt. LOL

GO CLEVELAND BROWNS !!!

I hate to affend anyone , but what do you see in soccer ?

Its the boringest sport, if you can call it that, next to golf .

At least american football is a sport for men and so is rugby, which is your football.

i dont like liverpool so i hope they go out.

chelsea all the way for me

Liverpool!

Supposedly the Juve Ultras (Juve Hooligans in other words) are gonna trash the game and get Liverpool fans because of the Heysel Disastor

I think it must rather be

GO LIVERPOOL

:88):88):88)

go liverpool.

Another Juventus supporter here. The match with Real was great, but we still have a long way to go. With Nedved we'll be better, but who knows.

1985-2005. 20 years from the Heysel Disaster.



The Milan-Inter match will be very close, as it was 2 years ago.

Solo Noi, Solo Noi........ Forza Juve e Basta.

I'm a huge Juve fan and i'm pretty excited about the match against liverpool. It should be a very good match. I don't know if it'll be as good as the juventus vs real madrid match though That was a thriller.

I think Juve will be too strong with Nedved returning. But it'll still be close. We'll just have to see who is the better team on the day.
Go Juventus

Nab is now officially the second coolest person on the site just because he likes Liverpool

I am the coolest

I dunno if any of u guys kenw wat happened in 1981 when Liverpool played Juve in Turin.
Liverpool were then huge underdogs but went on to win the match 4-1.

I guess if that happens again we can safely say that Liverpool are the most underestimated team in Europe.

Still, i would be the happiest man on Earth if Liverpool were to gain a draw.

And the bottom line is :

Allez les Rouges!!!!

-----------------------------

You'll Never Walk Alonenull

As usuall inter supporters throw things on the pitch. Usually they throw oranges, this time Flares & water bottles. Once they've thrown a motorbike down the stands & then put it on fire. I think that they should be banned from European football.

pointless dude_dude

Did anyone else see the milan - inter second leg match.
I was suprised when inter fans starting throwing bottles and flares and a flare hit Dida on the shoulder.
That match ended milan 1-0, 3-0 aggregate.

In the Chelsea - Bayern M. second leg match Bayern won 3-2.
But chelsea won 6-5 on aggregate.

Head-to-head


After last week's meeting at Anfield, Juventus and Liverpool have played each other in four knock out European matches.
Their first match-up was in 1965/1966 when Liverpool eliminated Juventus (2-1 on agg.) in the first round of the Cup Winners' Cup.
Their only other meeting was the infamous Champions Cup final on 29 May 1985 in the Heysel-stadium of Brussels. Juventus won that match 1-0 with a Michel Platini penalty.
Those figures exclude the 1985 Super Cup in Turin, when Juventus beat Liverpool 2-0.
Juve and Liverpool have never drawn with each other in European matches.
As their Champions Cup final of 1985 was played on neutral ground, Juventus have played only one European home match against Liverpool. That was played on 29 September 1965 which Juve won 1-0.

Striker Djibril Cisse is in Liverpool's squad - the first time since breaking his leg in October - for the Champions League match against Juventus.
But Steven Gerrard has been ruled out because of a groin injury.

Midfielder Xabi Alonso is expected to fill in for the Liverpool captain in his first game since 1 January.

Juventus striker David Trezeguet has failed to shake off an ankle injury and will not play but Brazilian midfielder Emerson is fit and available.

Alessio Tacchinardi is suspended and French right-back Jonathan Zebina has a thigh injury and should be replaced by Gianluca Pessotto.

Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will take Trezeguet's place in attack alongside Alessandro del Piero.

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez will ponder two massive gambles with Cisse and Alonso.

Cisse was expected to miss the whole of the season after breaking his leg against Blackburn last year.

However, Benitez has recalled the France forward even though he has not kicked a ball for six months.

Benitez said: "Cisse will not start the match but maybe we will use him in the last 20 minutes or so if we need something different and he is quick and can score goals.

"He has been saying for a couple of weeks that he is ready but we have wanted to be careful and make sure he is okay."

Benitez must also decide whether Alonso is ready to return, despite playing only 45 minutes for the reserves since breaking his ankle against Chelsea.


Juventus coach Fabio Capello:
"Liverpool are an excellent squad that defends with a great deal of attention. They are a really good and strong team.
"Unfortunately, we are a bit short on height at the moment and they are really dangerous on free-kicks."

Gerrard is out, Alonso will start instead of him probably and Cisse will come on in second half and hopefully score

Go Juventus go..........

---

I know human beings and fish can co-exist peacefully.

More news,
Trezeguet has been ruled out of the match.
And liverpool have named Cisse in the squad, so chances are he will start on the bench.

I heard that Gerrard is going to miss the match. Do you think this could change the outcome?

Any1 up 4 it?

Am really looking forward to the Liverpool v/s Juventus.
Wud be sumthing after the 1985 Heysel disaster.

I think Liverpool will make it through this time and hopefully go all the way to winning it.

It will most probably be a tight game in Turin.

As for the other legs Chelsea and Milan Ac are almost surely through.

And once again FORZA LIVERPOOL.
-------------------

You'll Never Walk Alone

4 very balanced quarter finals. I think that Chelsea & Milan will go through, but for the other 2 teams, it's still wide open.

Milan & Chelsea are the favourites for the 25th May final in Istanbul.

hehe, you wish perky.

Still underestimating juve at home.

But what does everyone else think the results in the second leg will be.
Heres what i think
Juventus 1-0 Liverpool[font color="#C00000"] (liverpool will be getting players back, but juve will not be easy to beat. As they showed against Real madrid.)[/font]
PSV 1-3 Lyon [font color="#C00000"](PSV are lucky with the first leg results. Think Lyon will be too strong)[/font]
Inter 2-2 Milan [font color="#C00000"](inter should have Adriano back, aswell as vieri being fit, as he didn't start last match.)[/font]
Bayern 2-2 Chelsea [font color="#C00000"](Bayern should have Makaay and Pizzaro back)[/font]

So it is going to be:

Liverpool v Bayern Munich

and

PSV v Milan

In other first leg results

Lyon 1-1 PSV
Milan 2-0 Inter
Chelsea 4-2 Bayern

to be honest, even though liverpool surprised me with that performance, i thinkk Juve having an away goal is going to make it prety hard for liverpool to go through.

Liverpool won PJ, don`t make any excuses

Liverpool had Juve all over the place in the first half! It was only Liverpool Reserve squad as well! Didn`t even have a experenced goalkeeper who would have saved that header by Cannavaro making it 2-0. I know Del Piero scored that header which was disallowed but shouldn`t have been but I think carson could have saved that if it had not been called for offside, as soon as the whistle went Carson was relaxing and din`t try to save it but if the whistle hadn`t gone he would have back tracked a bit and tipped it over the bar or something

Next leg will be a breeze for Liverpool and there will be liverpool in the final

Yea, good match. Liverpool played great in the first half. Juventus played great in the scond half. The match should of ended 2-2 though, as Del Pieros goal should of been allowed.
Can't wait till the next leg.

Liverpool-Juventus 2-1.
