Europa League Semi-Finals

Looks like an all English Final wasn't meant to be. Fulham won 2-1 over Hamburg placing them in the final. Liverpool sadly lost out on away goals (the score was 2-2) The Liverpool Atletico Madrid game even went into overtime, but Liverpool just couldnt score another goal to place them in the final.

Both teams played well, but for Liverpool it just wasn't meant to be. Better luck next boys.
So this means that on May 12th Fulham will play Atletico Madrid in the Europa League Final.

Not sure who Im going to be rooting for yet, but im thinking Atletico Madrid. =]

Liverpool through to Semi-Final

Feck yeah.... The lovely boys in red managed to defeat Benfica with an impressive 4 goals to 1. Who says Liverpool are losing there touch...eh?

Dirk Kuyt headed a corner from Steven Gerrard 27 minutes into the game. Strangely however, the linesman flags for offside, promting the ref to blow his whistle to disallow the goal. But after some persuading from Torres allows the goal. Who says Refs cant be nice once in a while? Maybe he took his happy pills this morning =]

Lucas 7 minutes later plays a beautiful ball into the back of the net, passed nicely from Gerrard. Liverpool's chances by now are sure looking gooooooood.

Torres slams the ball into the back of the net at 58 minutes.....Torres song followed =] Na na na na na na na na Torrs Torres

Benficas's Cardozo makes it 3 - 1 at the 68th minute as the Liverpool wall fails to stand firm.

Annnnnnnnd Torres scores again in teh 81th minute. Chips the ball over Moreira and Wollla 4 - 1 to Liverpool. Cue singing =]

Well what a stunning performance from Liverpool. To be fair Benfica played strongly in the first 30 minutes. But hand up to boys in Red for a fantastic performence (What it should be like) I have to mention though, Benfica players were pretty rough to Torres during this game. Leave blondie alone, he's to cute =]
