Champiooons! Well, not really.... :(

Whenever I heard the Champions League tune or whatever my heart starts beating faster and my adrenaline starts flowing because I just love it so much. All three teams I support are still in and normally this is a good thing, but right now it's just painful. It's time like these that I understand why so many sports fans drink. Here is my slightly pathetic CL recap from what I can remember after trying hard to forget and move on.

On Tuesday Arsenal beat Roma 1-0 which was a good result especially that I am a born again Arsenal fan so yay. However, Inter couldn't manage to defeat Manchester United. Now don't get me wrong, I really dislike Inter, I might even go as far as to say I loathe them, but whenever anyone is up against ManU I have to cheer them on to success. The draw was a mediocre result at best but at least Grody SAF didn't manage to get that ever so precious away goal.

Wednesday was a complete fail! ESPN decided to broadcast the Chelsea/Juventus game and I managed to get a stream of the Real Madrid/Liverpool match. I witnessed both of my teams lose 1-0 and this was too much. I'll start with my thoughts on the Chelsea/Juventus game-

It could have been worse. The next leg is a home game for Juve so they have a strong chance to win at the San Siro. Also, Trezeguet is back and he managed to play for a few minutes and I expect him to be even better for the return leg. Despite this, it should have been better. Juventus didn't manage to get the away goal which could utimately decide this draw. On the positive, Buffon was once again wearing his plum purple ensamble- I love it!

I don't even know where to begin with the Real Madrid/Liverpool game except to say that this was a complete disaster on RM's part. Canna got carded for the first time in like forever. I wasn't really upset, but I was annoyed, but mostly in part to the fact that he didn't even try to flirt his way out of it. Also, really Canna, shirt pulling? You are above that. Raul played really well, but where was everyone else. Heinze was such a massive fail I can't even begin to describe the ways he messed up. Also, congrats to the scouse side. Pepe Reina played the game and in my opinion was clearly the man of the match, if not for him I think RM would have won.

This is just so disheartening because RM had been on such a good winning streak and everything was in their favor. Also, on a more selfish side, this may possibly be Canna's last year and Real Madrid and I would just love for them to win the Champions League because it is his last feat to concur. He is truely a world class player and will go down as one of the greats and he really deserves it.

Anyways, in times of hardship, I try to match up songs with how I feel. The song for this post would be either The Beatles- "Let It Be", or "Yesterday". Take your pic.
