I have to agree that was a harsh call but if you watched the whole match, Liverpool totally dominated the game. Were it not for some terrific saves by Casillas, RM would have been down 3-0 before that call. The Spanish side was never a factor.

I know Peter, but I love to push your buttons

Seen part of the game, Liverpool deserved to win and they did.

Nah. You didn't push any buttons. You made a valid point.
In real time, the penalty looked like the right call. The replay showed differently. I can see how the AR made the decision he did. I will give him credit, though. It was right in front of him and he never hesitated.

Tonight the game Man.U - Inter ......

[aldukes]

ManU by 40

[Mr.Italy]

Nice game. Now go Manchester until the end.

Man U/Liverpool Saturday


What's the wager?

[Don Fernando]

all in on Man U

[pnoon]

Depends on which Liverpool team shows up. The one that played Boro or the one that played Real Madrid.

[Don Fernando]

doesn't matter Peter, send both teams 22 vs 11 and Man U will still win.

Pfft.

If the team that played RM shows up, ManU is toast. Did you see the match? They played like champions. Anything less and, I agree, ManU will get the result.

[mastershogun]

tough call... both will be on a high after their wins in the CL.
I think i'm going to lean towards manu taking this one

I saw part of the match, but that was tuesday's match and we're talking about a completely other match, different opponent, you can't compare Man U with Real Madrid at all.

Hellooooo. Hey Ferdinand. Did ya happen to see the match? I couldn't as my cable provider is showing Everton/Stoke, Bolton/Fulham, and Hull/Newcastle. WTF??!?!?!

Anyway, I think the 4-1 win was decisive. And we only needed 11.

I think Ferdinand's quote is what is known as 'double dutch' over here - or utter rubbish elsewhere. Cracking game... not gonna comment on Man U's penalty, but otherwise we rocked the kop from Mancland.

found this clip of Holland vs France at Euro 2008, what a game CLICK

Robert is Happy. 45% to 50% possession according to skysports, but liverpool had 5 shots on goal. 4 of them went in. United were threatening but only because of liverpool mistakes. the first 3 goals were because of mistakes. Reina knew seconds before that he should try to stop, just couldn't. Vidic had an off game and gerrard and torres took full advantage. I think Dossena should partner torres... two games, two goals.

I haven't seen the game, but congrats to the Liverpool fans. Guess that smack talking can really bite me in the ass. Premier league hasn't been decided yet today.
