if you are a soccer fan you need to be watching this match. 5 goals scored in the first half. What a game!

I missed the first 20 minutes because of class. But the Chels finished 4-2 to get the aggregate win! Goals by Gudjohnsen, Lampard, Duff and Terry for Chelsea, and Ronaldinho scored two, one a penalty and the other was just a deft move on the top of the box that was downright breath-taking.

I'm so freakin' happy, I keep singing "Celery" in my head.

Very good game this afternoon.

huh?

BBRex, are you from London or just a supporter from across the pond?

Just a supporter. I've been a fan since the late '80s or early '90s, when all I could really do is get updates on the standings or catch an occasional match on Fox Sports. Now it's better than ever to be a soccer fan and a Chelsea fan.

Wow. Congrats BBRex. Hopefully my team can stage a similar come from behind victory tomorrow.

I am a huge Liverpool for the same reason. I used to love watching Robbie Fowler and Stan Colleymore play on the once a week updates we would get. Hopefully they can pull it out against Leverkusen. (But hopefully Donovan has a whale of a game since he is getting the start)

Sooner Born, its looking good for Liverpool. Up 2-0 in the first half. Arsenal has its hands full, though. ESPN's http://www.soccernet.com does a pretty good live game cast.

I am thrilled so far! Hopefully they can keep it up for another 45. Wouldn't it be great if Arsenal came through as well and if Real Madrid go knocked out. What would Ronaldinho say then?

I love to hear him try dig himself out of that hole. Arsenal have a 1-0 lead in the second, and Liverpool is up 3-0. Juventus and Real Madrid are deadlocked at 0.

Arsenal win 1-0 on the night but go out 3-2 on aggregate. Gotta win the Cup now to lessen the failure of this season.

Ya know, that fool from Barcelona really stepped on himself by popping off. People need to lay off the EPL. That is a physical league.
