I HATE WORK!

Ugh I hate that Pirlo goes for the short touches off the corners and doesn't punch one into the 18. That short touch never works.

I HATE WORK!

Its a good game. You need to stay out of here until you can watch the game. Its going to spoil it for you. Celtic look really good.

I totally didn't want Juventus to draw Celtic. It was the opening match I feared the most. Juventus doesn't do well against the dark horses and agressive british teams

 

[the canadian dream]

christ Juventus doesn't deserve this first leg let alone a draw if it happens. Celtic deserve much better so far.

 

[supraman]

Yeah no shit Celtic deserves a goal. Just cant get the bounces

 

[supraman]

ugh poor Celtic did not deserve that

 

[the canadian dream]

no they didn't...even i was starting to cheer for celtic. thats a huge goal to concede also. 2-0 on home turf is rough for the second leg.



they really need to get one back before time runs out.

 

[supraman]

So sad

 

[the canadian dream]

yah that eliminates Celtic. Wont be able to score 3 on Juventus in the 2nd leg.

 

[MassHavoc]

Fuck Juvie... that is all.

BTW how does that work yet to figure it out

Each team plays the other on their home field. Team with the most goals in the 2 games advance. In case of a tie the tie breaker goes to the team that scored the most away goals. If it's still tied then it goes to penalty kicks. So Celtic would actually have to score 4 goals next match without conceding any or 3 without conceding and forcing penalty kicks. Thats just not going to happen.

Juvie returns the sentiment.



if anyone cares the dirty french paris team PSR beat Velencia 2-1 in Spain. I don't care for either team but dislike French football so not happy PSR won. Im not a huge fan of Spanish league football either (only like their international game) so whatever.



Real Madrid vs Man U tomorrow is a highly anticipated match. I guess I cheer for Man U. Nobody needs to see Madrid win a 10th champions league title. Screw that nonsense.

 

[supraman]

Bradford City is going to win UEFA. Even if they aren't playing. Yes an nPower League 2 team is going to win UEFA.



Yeah I guess go Man U. I dont like Ronaldo reminds me of Rick Nash and fuck that guy.

Thanks TCD I was trying to figure that out in FIFA 13 and wasn't making any sense. Now the Championship match is 1 game right? I think i remember that from when I was on Real Madrid

 

[The Count Dante]

And what an opening to UEFA!!!



It does suck about Celtic. That 3rd goal sealed their fate. I concur there is NO way they beat Juv 3 - 0 next match. First goal was a fluke (and I blame the goalie even with the horrible marking) and 3rd goal was just lazy. Too bad.



And PSG winning? Gee... lets see... a team worth 330 mill beating a team who cant finish their stadium, has sold off any "star" talent, and is owned by the city... And yet they still remain.



The highlight of the night for me?



And now presenting Overrated Piece O' Garbage!

Can you say Real Madrid v ManU?!? SO stoked for that...

 

[MassHavoc]

I'm confused at what you are saying with your highlight? Are you trying to say he's overrated? Because both of those look like dives to me.
