    cero a cero. Now if only I wasn't peeing out my ass. It'd be a lot easier to enjoy this tie.

    Very, very nice. Key now is to take care of business at home. We do that and we're through.

    This. Good god I know you have to be a little more conservative against teams that are more explosive than you, but they weren't even trying to score. I think a little offensive pressure would have helped the D, and hey getting one goal is a great relaxer instead of making it so you have to shut em out

    You should let us know how the mechanics of the girls national team is.

    Us would've lost if they did anything but what they did last night. Not sure how anyone can question klinsy after a point at Azteca. That was huge. Defense played awesome and our strategy of not going forward was key. Kept Mexico from having much space to work with through the midfield.

    My friend was hating on him last night, mid-game. I couldn't believe it. He said "Egypt won tonight..." lol

    It pisses me off. I haven't been able to really get into Champions League since college.

    I was able to still watch for 2 years after graduation as my job has my weekends during the week, typically. But these last 2 years its been completely random when my days off will be and I have missed a ton of the matches. If Barcelona gets by PSG, I will probably look ahead to the match-days and try to request off those days (and also the final, obviously).
  • Automatik
    I may have a later "doctors appointment" on the day of the final, regardless of who makes it.

    Today should be a good one. I actually think PSG will get a desirable result...just got a feeling.

    You should be fine for the final as long as you don't have to work weekends? The final is on a Saturday.

    I'll be tuning in as long as Fox Sports Ohio has a game. I don't have FSC at my apartment here at OSU (have both FSC and BeIn at home).
  • Automatik
    Nice, I had no idea it was on a weekend this year.
  • NilesPacMan
    Wow. Bayern scores in the first thirty seconds after a defensive miscue leads to a 35 or so yard shot that absolutely shocked the keeper.

    That's definitely not how Juventus wanted to start this game.
  • Automatik
    I can't believe Beckham started and it appears he will play the whole 90.
  • gorocks99
    What a crazy-ass game. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy.

    Also, Becks was subbed in the 70'
  • Automatik
    I stand corrected. The gamecast was a bit delayed.

    2 away goals given up for PSG. Not very good for them.
  • sportswizuhrd
    Was going to watch Juventus and Bayern but during the pre-game the annoying as hell opera music made me decide to change the channel and then completely forgot to change it back.

    My turn to miss the games tomorrow due to work. Oh well, I will get to watch them next Tuesday.

    Someone remind me...are the Finals played as 2 leg's or just one match?
  • Automatik
    Are you talking the Champions League theme? I love it!

    The final is one match, neutral site. Wembley Stadium this year.

    Haha yes! It was during pre-game so I heard it about 20 times. Plus I can't sit through commercials. Commercials are a big part of my job, so I can't tolerate 20(exaggeration) commercial breaks.

    Thanks for the info on the final.

    Another question, I would google it but I don't know if it's been decided. With FSC turning into FXX this Fall, what will FOX do with their coverage of the Champions League?
