UCL QF 1 : Arsenal vs Liverpool
-
Date 3rd April 2008 Time 2.45am Live @ CH-23vs
The Champions League resumes as Liverpool take on Arsenal in the first of what will be three matches against the Gunners in six days.
The first leg sees Rafa Benitez’s men take on Arsene Wenger’s at the Emirate’s Stadium. With both teams having got to European Cup finals in recent years, there’s a lot to play for on Wednesday night.
Both teams enjoyed victories domestically at the weekend, with Arsenal picking up points at Bolton and Liverpool beating Merseyside rivals Everton.
Both managers will have Saturday’s game in mind, where the two sides meet again in London, with Arsenal still chasing Chelsea and Manchester United for the Premier League title.

being a gunner, this match is 1st leg of ucl. i think it will be more like try-water for the gunner side.
so i think gunners will perserve some of their talents n focus on the next two matches wif pool.
Result: 1-1
-
gunners must win at emirates if they wana progress, i don't think they can win at anfield.

actually most english side feel comfortable playing pool at anfield comparing to everton ground.except for torres n crouch, think the rest of pool players r no threat to gunners.

for me i think gunners scare gerrard becos he is english n referee tends to protect english. :<once referee anyhow award freekick to him, arsenal will be in trouble becos the back four seem weak against high balls.
but he is no threat comparing to torres. torres can score without looking at the ball. it's kinda important to mark him out tis game.

nice 3some games
looking 4ward 2 it..

Arsenal have already shown that they are dangerous for 90 mins.
If Liverpool is not careful at corners or set pieces, they are doomed.
Liverpool's weakness is at corner and set pieces.
Unless Ah Ben partner Crouch with Torres, Liverpool should have a chance to spear the defence of arsenal.
With torres alone, he will defintely be marked out of space.
I dun foresee a Liverpool victory at all.

For wednesday match , Rafa will go onto the pitch , and put 10 lorries infront of goal .
We dun need to focus on goals , so Torres and Crouch for this game , least important .... we need our defense !!! An away goal would be nice .
It will be a typical European night for Liverpool . A draw is good enuf to kill them .
Return legs wise , no teams enjoy seeing
.
Ask Chelsea how many times they see this and went back London with tails between their legs ?
-
When we were well beaten by Man Utd .... i saw a simple message to the boyz , juz forget this match and focus on the match against everton ......
we had our desired result against Everton , and now with a win in our bag , we are even more positive & determine against Gunner .

And good Luck to Pool for this match... I am one of those that would like to see the 2 biggest English clubs team final... There is nothing better than a Pool vs United CL final.

1-1 wtf
-
u mean its 1-1 now.
sadly cant watch matches live. parents.
-
Anyone watching the match can comment on liverpool`s performance during the first half ?
-
It's all about Arsenal trying to win the game , and Liverpool not losing the game .
Now Gunner's kang chiong liao , conceded an away goal advantage to Liverpool .
If the score remains that way , we need not win at Anfield , a scoreless draw is good enuf to condemn Arsenal to another Trophyless season .
-
As what i had said , Liverpool defending like fuck .
If Arsenal take the chances , 4-0 liao .....
-
Reina like a bit kelong kelong like that .... Eccentric at times .
-
Liverpool is using set-pieces to win this match .
-
2nd half Arsenal sent in Walcott . That fast chap , think he's going to test Hyypia to his limit , his pace .
-
Steven Gerrard is our saviour with our equaliser . he never score la , Kuyt did , but it's SG who created the goal .
