agreed...
only moment of quality was the goal and a few of rooney and robbens runs..
makes you appreciate teams like arsenal & barcelona, who although havnt been successfull this season, are a joy to watch when in free flow....
congrats to chelski..
have to say bit unlucky for man usa with the goal not ruled in, it was over line but im not sure on the rules regarding giggs sliding cech over line....he couldnt stop the momentum..
man usa need to improve performances against the big teams..

I thank the lord i watched Serie B - Bologna Brescia, wow what dramas occured in that game, you really had to watch it to understand what was going on. Now if you watched Juve-Bologna imagine the ref shiraz up Bologna even more . First half Bologna were denied a clear penalty. It got to a point where Bologna's fans wern't argry anymore but laughing, and applauding the referee for the decisions that went against Bologna - you could say the ref got many standing ovations. Then the ultras packed up and left. Then Bellucci gets red carded for almost about to deck the ref, after another penalty was not awarded. The Bologna president runs onto the field and tells the players to walkoff the fans encourage this. The president is escorted off the field. Filippini gets his second yellow. At the end of the game the Bologna officials were after the referee. BTW Brescia won 1-0 through Serafini, it was a good high tempo game as well, Bologna extremely unlucky not to equalise.
Bologna and referee's they got bottle of shiraz up in A, now in B

You obviously don't watch Serie A do you???The one and only wrote:your used to it from the srie A aren't youjuventino_4_ever wrote:What a pathetic game. I can't believe I sat through 120 minutes of such crap.
but i do agree was a pretty bad game
In Italy the game does revolve around passing the ball in the defensive half, for half a day, wait for the teammates to line up along the last line, then boot it. Hopefully they may get a knock down a have a scoring opportunity.

pathetic game, its about the chances you take not the ones you make. hats of to essien, he won them the game. mikel is a joke and robben is a girl. giggs summed up his game but not smashing the ball into the net and then there would have been no doubt as to whether it was a goal, champion or not....very disapointing
The only Juve game I have ever seen that was worse was vs Milan in 04/05. That was horrid to watch. First corner came after 87 minutes.Rooney8 wrote:u do every week wen u watch juve playjuventino_4_ever wrote:What a pathetic game. I can't believe I sat through 120 minutes of such crap.

FA Cup
What a bore one of the worst FA Cup Finals ever.
Both teams too scared to lose that they both sat back defended in numbers, hurling long hopefull balls at a lone striker.
Really worry now the big finals on the world stage are starting to follow the defensive pattern. Last night both teams adopted 4-2-3-1 as a result there was no space in midfield so rather than go wide both teams went long over the top.
I am not a Man Utd supporter but was hoping they would win, simply because Chelsea are so boring. With all the talent they have they should be exciting and succesful.
From a neutral point of view it was dull and boring.
Lets hope Thursday morning is better, however I do wonder, because Liverpool will play for the break. However at least Milan will try and pass their way through.

dont turn this into a serie a vs epl topic again ffs..
u cant judge a league on 1 game...especially a cup final...
yeh it was below par and boring...but both teams have had long tiring seasons and had injuries..
both leagues have their merits...get over it....we can enjoy all forms of the game.. i think we are lucky to have such a good choice these days with media coverage as it is..
