2007-08 UEFA Champions League Round of 16 Thread

[weasel]

Fabulous performance from Barcelona. Deserved a much bigger margin.

Arsenal are very unlucky not to be taking a lead into the second leg; if you compare their performance this morning to Liverpool's yesterday you'd think the scorelines had been swapped. Unfortunate for them because it's going to be very difficult to advance in the San Siro.

Shame about the late equaliser against Lyon. Firkin Man Utd.

A setback for Sevilla but I don't imagine a 1 goal deficit will be too much for them to pull back at home, especially with two away goals.

Henry's goal was magical, the first great goal he's scored for them. Has there been any others that haven't been tap-ins?

That is the Henry that has to show himself if Barcelona are to win the Champions League. Actually, despite the two soft goals they conceded, the form from Henry, Messi, and Ronaldinho was looking ominous for the first time in a while. Looks like they might be poised to finish this season with a bang.

They're not through yet.


oh yes they are

arsenal played soo well this morning and couldnt find one goal, was very dissappointin and its going to be a tough ask to win at the San Siro

in other games, messi is just a freak, bad luk for bumble's celtic, they were leading 2-1 and couldn't hold on

Arsenal v AC Milan was a brilliant game this morning. Enthralling, Arsenal were very impressive.

0-0 is not the worst score for the home side in the first leg. A score draw and Arsenal will advance, something I think they have a decent shot at.

 

[BWNB]

1-1 draw please.... If we concede the first goal well I don't like our chances.
Was a great game for a 0-0 draw tho.

Arsenal v Milan on Tuesday (European time)!

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

arsenal on the tele. what a f**king surprise. SBS would show arsenal v chinese taipei over the champions league final if it didn't have liverpool in it

 

[NK Arsenal]

I thought they were showing Man Utd v Lyon instead?

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

even worse

 

[fish eel]

Man U Lyon and Real Roma are the games sbs are showing

 

[Bumble]

United v Lyon? Seriously? :?

 

[Dragooner]

Hmm, Gunners vs Taipei, now there's a Champions League final.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Yay, thank f**k they finally show a decent game on Thursday.

 

[weasel]

I'm glad SBS and ESPN are broadcasting different games live this week, so I'm actually provided the choice that I'm paying so much money to have. Although I'll probably watch Real-Roma Thursday. Wednesday is Arsenal vs Milan for sure.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

what i with ESPN these days? they hardly ever used to show the same game as SBS ... it was actually good flicking back and forth between two different games, now it's usually the same game

 

[Dragooner]

How can they not have Arsenal vs Milan. Now Toney even you gotta go with me on this one.

The San Siro will be set alight tommorow morning. Arsenal will pull out everything knowing that one goal will do them the world of good yet Milan must come out and attack as well. It'll be like watching Ping Pong, end to end stuff, will be a cracker by any standards.
