Confirms my initial suspicions that it was never a goal. But to me it was better for Chelsea because they would have conceded a penalty and had Cech sent off otherwise. The "Baros fouled Cech because his foot was high" argument from the Home United coach on ESPN is absolute rubbish. Baros was much quicker to the ball than Cech.
Anyway the performances by Liverpool and PSV showed that teamwork, preparation and tactics can get you a long way. That's the beauty of football. Talent can get you a long way but good preparation and tactics and teamwork won't leave you a long way behind either. Liverpool and PSV showed that on both nights and they did not roll over and die when faced with supposedly better teams in Chelsea and Milan.
No Jose, the better team did not lose. You had the more talented team but definitely not THE BETTER TEAM.
Wish I could write more but I really need some sleep now. Just hope that Milan's individual talent will triumph against Liverpool's teamwork though :S
