Goal from Ronaldo, check. Sloppy goal from Lampard, check. a goalless 2nd half, check. A red card for Drogba in extra-time, check. Penalty kicks, check. Ronaldo missed, DAMN! John Terry slipped, HOORAY! Finally, Anelka missed.......
MAN UTD ARE EUROPEAN CHAMPIONS!
Honestly, I do feel they were lucky. But overall, they are the champions of England and Europe. The match was pretty OK, with the pitch being the main hiccup. Then you have an almost boring second half, which stretched all the way to extra time. Drama started, and Drogba slapped Vidic upon an argument. Red card to him, and he showed he's caring less. Then came the penalties, and luckily for Cristiano, Terry slipped and missed. If not, the blame's on him again. Then stepped up Anelka, and Van der Sar saved the goal. Kudos to him, and he's the force to be reckon with. Boring, dramatic, fashionable, it kind of summed up everything. On a second note, the commentator from ESPN USA needs to be slapped for comparing american football to what they call it soccer. From penalty kicks to sending off, he just can't stop pointing out issues about it. With the Champions' League down, it's time for David Cook.....
