Hmm. I disagree on the real madrid part. The reason Liverpool have been drawing of late is because teams they face generally play in ultra defensive mode. With Real Madrid playing host, I reckon there's lots more space for Torres/Kuty/Benayoun and Riera to run around. Plus with Alonso back in midfield, I'll be expecting a good game tonight.
My fingers are crossed for Rafa to emply Babel behind Torres, but knowing his continental style, he'll probably opt for a traditional 4-5-1, with Lucas, Masch and Alonso in the middle. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
I didn't watch the other games, but how could I have missed Liverpool's victory against Real Madrid? I thought Alonso+Kuyt was superb -- thank god he didn't move to Arsenal or somewhere else back then -- and finally they're stepping up to another level.
As for Madrid, I thought Heinze and Ramos didn't look too interested in the game? A little... slack?
The Reds held on from the offensive Real raids to win this one. The resilience of the Reds should be appreciated and as always it paid off in the end. For all the possesion Real enjoyed it all came to noughts.
I didn't know Yossi could head a ball, but I'm glad he did. And Alonso came very close with a shot from his own half. A great result for the Reds.
Robben played very well for Real Madrid. He will be a big threat for The Reds in the return leg.
4-0 demolition of Real Madrid by the Reds !Quote:
Fernando Torres described himself as the "happiest player in the world" after scoring for Liverpool FC and helping them to a 4-0 win over his nemesis team, Real Madrid CF, to send the Reds through to the last eight of the UEFA Champions League.
Chelsea also go through...
