The Pain of being a pool fan Part II

Liverpool did well last night, in fact I would even go so far to say that it was an excellent performance from the boys in red....they peppered Leverkausen's goal mouth for the whole of the first half, scored 3 goals, could have had more and surprise, surprise.....Igor Biscan actually had a good game...in fact he was probably man of the match!.....

BUT

There's always a 'BUT'.....Jersey Dudek just had to drop the ball at the feet of an on-rushing striker in the last 3 minutes....couldn't have just kept a clean sheet and made it an 'easy' (if it ever could be when liverpool play) second leg.....no....we had to give them an away goal which cut the ammount of goals required by the Germans in half....instead of needing 4 goals they just need 2 and they are well capable. Remember this is the team who beat Real Madrids gallacticos, Kiev and Roma by 3 goals.....all at home.....they know its possible especially if Dudek is dropping the ball as often as he is! FOOLs! I will be sitting fingers crossed in two weeks that we do it....if we do I'll be as happy as a pig in poop....but not until we get a result....i can't be cocky....i can't.....i've seen these things backfire before!.....come on the pool!

Am really no big fan of soccer, but what surprises me is the reach of this sport. Even a poet being a fan speaks volumes of the spread of this sport.Hats off to the marketing people.In between, I am spared the abovementioned pain , but there are a lot other pain to be taken care of....
