    GAME ON! Im so suprised by this match. both teams attacking, nothing like the usual super sunday armegedon bla bla sunday games! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,473 ✭✭✭RE*AC*TOR


    Hugely undeserved equaliser.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,474 ✭✭✭YeatsCounty


    Completely undeserved equaliser there. Lampard benefits from a deflection, who'da thunk it? :p Just kidding, he made a good run and it was a good calm finish.

    Makes for a tasty second half! :pac:

    Ferdinands header was shocking.Led to the goal.

    Chelsea have been horrible so far and are drawing.. ha ha ha classic Chelsea


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,072 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Jammy bastards chelsea, probably their only shot on target, united should have three goals argh. We're playing them off the park I'll be disgusted if we throw this away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,727 ✭✭✭✭Sherifu


    Ronaldo looked upset at half time. Chelsea are damn lucky to be level.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,228 ✭✭✭Chardee MacDennis


    zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    Sorry seem to have fallen asleep watching that match

    its actually a descent game, are you watching a different game by any chance?:p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 180 ✭✭raemie21


    Sh1t for that. United should have scored at least another beforehand. Will make for a better match I suppose

    Why has Makalele spent the last 20 minutes begging for a second yellow? Even going back to argue with the ref after the half time whistle.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 180 ✭✭raemie21


    Scholes looks a bit hot headed aswell - and has a yellow already


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 15,001 ✭✭✭✭Pepe LeFrits


    Chelsea need to get Makelele off and put Essien in central midfield.

    Nah, it's been surprisingly enjoyable so far, if I do say so myself (neutral here).


    PS: Montreal's a good city, I highly recommend the move.

    Up until the first goal it was woeful, it has gotten better since then.

    Chelsea need to get Makelele off and put Essien in central midfield.

    +1 to that. Makelele is more hassle than he's worth nowadays. For an example see his attempted defending for Kuyt's goal in the semi final first leg. Essien also has the ability to run that midfield.

    It will be a travesty if Chelsea win this match .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,008 ✭✭✭delija_sever029


    Completely sh!te:( United had a lead,2-3 great chances to make it bigger and than they managed to get goal in own net,totally undeserved draw for Chelsea,pitch is sh!te Van der Sar would get that ball before Lampard if he didnt slide as all the players did in this 1st half.Hope United can make it in 2nd half.
    Anyone noticed blood in Drogba's mouth after Vidic punched him in 5th minute?:D
    I told ya dont talk bad about him he will murder ya all:D

    First goal set the game going - until then it was poor.

    Utd must be sickened - owned the ball, could have easily been three nil up and lose an uber-soft goal after two deflections set up Lampard.

    Don't think Ronaldo has set the game alight - definately doesn't look like the "best player in the world" TM Sky Sports after that half, even with the goal.

    Malouda shockingly bad - awful awful awful - Don't think he'll be on for the second half.

    Im no fan of Ronaldo, but he has being much better in this game compared to some of the other recent big games. Tevez has being great apart from those misses. He'll probably be dying towards the end of the match.



    ITV HD are showing the match...... so much for being a Sky Exclusive :)


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 23,139 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Shevchenko to come on with 5mins left and score the winner and become a Chelsea legend!

    I think he's been good so far. Less show pony stuff than usual.

    Van der Sar rolls back the years! That's what he was like in his last year in Italy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    lol @ Fergie arguing with the ref


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,692 ✭✭✭✭OPENROAD


    see ferguson is having a long chat with the ref on the way out, I wonder what that was all about


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,077 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    United must have gotten a rake load of white boots delivered to Old Trafford at the weekend.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,474 ✭✭✭YeatsCounty


    Blatter and Platini look positively thrilled with the nights' entertainment.....:rolleyes:

    Not saying Ronaldo isnt having a decent game, just he's not dominating the game.

    Malouda two stupid free kicks given away and the ball hoofe over the bar in
    the first 90 secs of the half - cant believe Kalou isnt on for him
