Title: FA Cup Final
Post by: Mr. T. on May 13, 2006, 12:56 PM
Liverpool won an un-be-lie-va-ble match. The were 2-O down at halftime, then went 3-2 down with only 2 minutes to play. In the las minute of regular time, Gerrard made THE goal of the season to go in to overtime! You'd have to see it to believe it  :o
Penalties decided, and Liverpool won!

Allen Hansen and Gary Lineker were unanimous! Best Game In 50 Years!

Isn't football the greatest!

They're playing Cash's The Ring Of Fire throught the Milennium Stadium right now, goosebumps...

Ah, free expression of football!
Speed, acceleration, sweet left foot, all the tricks - the dummy, the drop of the shoulder, the shimmy, nutmeg, jiggery-pokery, hocus pocus, abracadabra, I wanna reach out and grab ya. Steve Miller Band? Spin Doctors? Ooh, very similar.  ;)

Just saw the penalties live. Then Gerrard's goal in the replay; very nicely struck indeed.

Too bad about Liverpool winning. I love rooting for the underdog, but the underdog almost never wins the Big One in most European soccer leagues.
