That was not a pen!Let's be real here gentlemen..and to any ladies that have not played football..that is the way the sport is played.When two players are running towards the ball there is going to be contact.You brace yourself for it and lean in HARD.Both the lads are basically the same size.Pineaar has been in the Prem for a few years now banging against Carras,Vidics,Scoles etc-young Flannagan is an up and coming good player....FFS!!!They both knew what to expect.
Playing Sunday football,when the same thing happened,I would put a hand out,help my opponent up and smile at him and under my breath tell him next time "I'm coming in f*****g harder!"Course I also held the leg of his shorts on corners too...but that's another topic.This time?No pen.No free kick.50/50.Let's play football!
van der Vaarts first strike was a decent hit;small deflection in Spurs favour as any f*****g deflection and loose ball seemed to be today.Their defense firing on all cylinders.Webb?..enuff said in just the name.And the LFC players?Hold your heads high lads!It's been a magical ride since January 8th.We were not that bad:their defense can not produce another display like.
Lastly,no Red Horizon,i wasn't there either.An Anfield Experience(1 match!) costs some supporters a weeks vacation in time as well as about 2000 quid.Had a ticket too-but when Braga advanced,knew that we wouldn't be in that final,so made my other Bird happy and said I would vacation with her....damn.....never been to Ireland.
