UEFA Champions League Final 2006

[Russ]

Did anyone see the game today? I went and had 6 odd pints of Guinness and watched the game. I was hoping Arsenal would take it because I didn't think Henrik Larsson (Ghod) would play in the game (otherwise I probably would have went out and bought a #7 Barcelona shirt!).

Anyway, Goalie sent off after what, 17 minutes? Then Arsenal with 10 men score at around 35 odd minutes... I think it took the man himself to come on and set up the two goals that finished Arsenal.

Did anyone see it, any football (soccer) fans here?

I think Lehmann was sent off in the 18th minute after putting an emergency break to this guy...

Anyway, I'm not that big a soccer fan, only watch the important games and ofcourse the Worldcup The final game will be played about 5 minutes from my home... It will be very exiting with all the fans in town over the next month...

Does affect this red card Lehmann anyhow for the worldcup? He is listed for gerrmany No. 1 Goaly... How many games he can't play now?

I don't know. I think after the referee has been quoted as saying that:

"I would have liked to have taken a few more seconds before I made a decision," Hauge told a Norwegian newspaper" (source bbc sport/football website)

I think it would be hard for FIFA to penalise him. Still, at least you have Oliver Kahn!

The best thing about Barcelona winning this (thanks to Larsson) is that Glasgow Celtic (my bhoys) now gain direct qualification and don't have the initial qualifying round (remember Artmedia Bratislava last year )...

8 millions pounds (UK) to be earned for gaining this Europpean place, hopefully Celtic's chiefs give Strachan a big wad of dough for summer signings!!!

I forgot to ask - Are you going to go watch any of the games live?

I am mad about football (soccer), shame Scotland aren't in the World Cup though

I wasn't beable to get me a ticket.... Was trying it over the fifa ticket center but gave up... I will go with my girl to certain hotspots what are beeing everywhere installed in the city.... Watching on a real big big screen with all the other fans... I guess it will be a great atmosphere there....

Exactly why I wanted a Barcelona win! Hopefully we'll do better this year!

It's about one month i live in London, so i was hoping for Arsenal.
However the game was amazing. Great first half played by Arsenal, and great performances of Barcelona on the second half.
Guys have you seen Giuly? It's a shame he wasn't called on the national team this year!

No it doesn't affect.

Ludovic Giuly the Frenchman? He's one of the fastest midfielders (attacking midfielders) I've seen. I remember him well against Scotland beating us 2-0 in 2000. He's on the squad for frand in the World Cup, right?

Juventus, match fixing? Terrible. They could go down to Serie B, oh no... That's terrible for a club like that to be in that situation.
