Sure, it was an own goal, but I doubt Anelka would have missed if Riise didn't net. It would have been better to put the ball <B>over</B> the bar, but the player has to dust himself off and make amends by scoring from 30 yards out.<BR/><BR/>How about how Skrtel and Carragher combined to make Drogba look a below-average pouter, always showing the referee his own right eye in an attempt to influence the decisions in his favor. <BR/><BR/>Was I biased or did the decisions seem to go Chelsea's way more often than not?<BR/><BR/>This match-up was averaging 0.5 goals/Ch. Lg. match. We'll need to change that at The Bridge. <BR/><BR/>Makelele was showing his best high-jump in hopes of being an Olympic alternate for France's Track and Field team at the time of the Kuyt goal. The whole back line was highly disorganized and looked quite vulnerable. Liverpool can win the second leg with more of that.Sixes and Sevenshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00698252560207072095noreply@blogger.com
