UEFA Champions League Final

[Will]

Its a gaaaaaaaaaame!
Its funny how its rare to see from the fans: "yeah, well they beat us, but they played a good game and deserved it"
However, you here the players say it, and then the fans of both sides start a debate about it.

[AJDS]

Its funny how no one has mentioned either of the keepers yet. It if weren't for a few great saves by Cech, then it could've all been over for Chelsea in the first half. And Van Der Sar's penatly saving greatness saved Ronaldo's skin, as I personally don't think that Man U could have won the shootout without him.

Would that be Wez Van Der Sar then?

Man UTD were not fortunate to win, we dominated the first half and we should have been 2, maybe even 3-0 up, Chelsea looked dead and buried. Then they got a lucky goal with about 3 deflections and the keeper slipping against the run of play. Chelsea dominated the 2nd fair play but that makes it even 2 halfs each. Extra time didn't really go to anyone it was fairly stalemate. And penalties are mostly luck so overall i don't think any of the teams deserved to win it more than the other.

I am a Man UTD supporter but that's how i saw it from a non Man UTD supporting perspective and that's how my mates and the commentators saw it who don't support Man UTD.

CHAMPIONS!!
 :D  :D

Edit: Oh and btw, the refereeing was disgraceful. Chelsea were diving at every opportunity and Man UTD barely got a free kick in the 2nd half.

I would respond with a counter-argument, but by saying "Chelsea were diving at every opportunity and Man United barely got a free kick in the 2nd half" you have quite clearly demonstrated you have no idea what you are talking about.

Haha you're only saying that because you lost. Considering everyone else i have spoken to has said the same points to you just being a sore loser.

EDIT: Ah bugger, can't post the pic.

Everyone you have spoken to has said Chelsea were "Diving at every opportunity and Man United barely got a free kick"?


This is a genuine question: Did you actually watch the match?

[ToneMonkey]

They were all a big bunch of diving nancy boys, it wasn't just one team  :lol:

Fairly good match though.  Man U had the first half, Chelsea had the second, overall I think Man U had a slight edge in Extra Time (although I was quite drunk by then, so could well be wrong).

Unfortunate in Pens as I was hoping Ronaldo would end up crying and that makes me very happy.  I think the ghost of Alf Ramsey must have tripped Terry before the pen.

I think the ghost of Alf Ramsey must have tripped Terry before the pen.

Why Sir Alf?  Matt Busby, surely?

Wez - I know - just couldn't resist the link to VDS...

Shocking picture of Ashley Cole trying to head Ferdinand in the nuts there, Sambo - surprised that the ref let him get away with that!

 :twisted:

 :lol:  :lol:  It is a bit strange-looking isn't it?




P.S. It's actually Joe Cole, but I'll let you off.  

[Crazy_Joe]

Joe Cole played on so the ref played advantage there was nothing wrong with that refereeing.

Edit: You can't play on and try and score, miss your shot on goal and then claim you should have had a free kick or penalty that's not how it works.
