The other games today - 2012/13


Recommended Posts

Ridiculous incident in Shaktar's game, they were given a drop ball in order to return it to the danish side..instead they choose to kick the ball to their striker who rounded the keeper and scored, then they decided to give the other side a goal in typical fair play fashion, then changed their mind and decided nah f*** it, intercepted the ball and kept on playing :lol:

didn't maratimo just play on from a drop ball against us?

 

Aye and Bigi got booked for the tackle to stop the player running away with the ball. It was a good tackle too.

Isn't there now a good possibility both City and Chelsea will be forced to endure the 'humiliation' of Europa League footy, with ourselves consequently dumped by ESPN in favour of the money boys?

 

ITV get first choice, will probably be the 6pm/8pm combo across both channels

Can anyone explain to me why ITV were saying Shaktar are definitely through? Doesn't make any sense.

It's head to head, not goal difference, Chelsea can't go past them.

 

Shakhtar 2 - 1 Chelsea

Chelsea 3 - 2 Shakhtar

 

So I'm guessing if they do finish on 10 each the head to head goes off some sort of away goals thing, which would send Shakhtar through?

:nods:

And frankly, I find that ridiculous. I dislike the away goal rule in the later rounds but for it to matter this much in a group is just proper shite.

Tbf Shakhtar have a far superior goal difference as well even if Chelsea won it's quite unlikely they would better Shakhtar's goal difference.

 

Anyway it's blatant the Shakhtar and Juve game will be a draw :lol:

Aye, in this case it probably wouldn't matter, but it's still daft. Like I said, I don't like the away goal rule at all, a goal is a goal no matter where it is scored IMO.

Benitez ? haha.

 

Left Liverpool with a poor lobsided squad, then took over at Inter from Jose and did absolutely terrible.

 

Let the fun begin.

Tbf to Benitez Liverpool was consistently top 4 under him and since he left they have not even got close.

 

I personally think he's better than given credit for, league aside he won everything there is to win at Liverpool and at Valencia he won La Liga twice( no mean feat at a club who is not one of the big 2) and at Inter he was sacked in November i think it was hardly enough time.
