^^yeah, but when he actually did the wobbly legs he didn't save the penalty!!!
who would have thought this time last year we'd all be celebrating winning the champions league final and would be hailing Jerzy Dudek as a hero??

BTW highlights have just started on ITV for anyone still up in the UK

Thanks chaps. Nice to know our team was the neutrals choice!!!!

Congratulations lads. Have a beer for me.

i'm sorry to say I threw a tantrum when the 3rd went in and switched the game off as I couldn't see any way back. It was when I read online an hour later that it was 3-3 and went mental before putting it back on in time to see extra time & pens.

I was sitting watchin the shootout through my fingers and shaking like leaf.

Classic comeback from a classic club.

Once again well done from most of the folks on Killiefc.com

right..................ok.........................at this present time im not quite sure what has happened tonight. as far as i can remember.......WE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cluckin unbephuckinlievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the most amazing and extraordinary game i have ever had the extreme pleasure to be a smalll part of......

all i remember is holding an extremely grudgin respect for the undeniable legend of the game that is maldini, then watchin the most enthrallin, inspiring, amazing comeback surely in the history of european football.

i hate to say it but gerrards goal reminded me of the way roy keane inspired united to beat juve in 99', pure captains goal. (aint goin nowhere!!!!!!!) then the others battled for their lives, showin the best spirit ive ever witnessed in a game of footy to come back against an obviously unbelievably class side in milan. Lets not forget them, cos we all know we won and thus were the better team, yet AC gave us some slightly(understatement of the year

)worryin moments. (dudek?

? was the will of 500,000 scousers turning u superhuman somehow?

?)

well should really get to bed now. left the bar i was at around 1am but thankfully warington uni (which i currently study at for at least another 3 weeks:p ) has an active social life, even if u dont support the best team in europe. hence the lengthy 6.08 message.

after the first half all me mates kept pattin me on the back, sayin like "oh well at least u got this far" yet all i said was it aint over yet (although at times i would have taken 3-0 as a not too humiliating a defeat. never before has unblindin faith been repaid in such results surely. (even jesus walkin on water was typical journalistic hyperbole)

well the game......... traore- first half :censored:

( yet simply the result means all moanin can wait as the lad becomes a true anfield legend). simply wasnt in tandem with the rest of the defence (considerin its been the same all year) obvious weakspot which shevy tried to exploit every time. rafa fair enough a tricky decision with kewell and cisse etc yet smicer allowed garcia to move into a more attackin role and put a player (vlad) who was more to likely to track back than Garcia. (and obviously the goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

this along with the introduction of hamman made the whole team more solid as a platform was built for gerrard and alonso to play from, which for once gave SG the chance to perform a captains role in a big game.

even the switch of SG to Right back was a questionable one yet as soon as i remembered that serginho had just come on, rafa had spotted that he was a danger( undeniably a classy player down the left) which the switch counteracted greatly.

Yes we let in three first half goals, yet the early goal meant that we had to leave gaps which kaka in particular exploited perfectly, underlining the true class of opponent tonight.

the place where i watched it was full of plastic AC fans which although nearly proving troublesome to the intactness of my pint glass, were at least humble enough to watch us all going absolutely mental from the moment it went 3-2.

frankly this game has ruined the rest of my football watchin career, as surely the only thing that could have made the game more of a spectacle would have been cisse gettin the winner.

as it is im stuck with watchin this bunch of winners for the rest of me life, with little more to aim for ( except the complete and total dominance of world football which the future years will bring)
oh well never mind.

dont even think about criticising anythin ive said cos any true fan wil tell u its all true!!!!

sorry for over analysin performances of some players as theyv all done us proud today, yet id prefer our next trophy to be won with less easily avoidable mistakes which top class players will exploit.

all i can say is were lucky to be playin against milan rather than some top team like chelsea who may have exploited such defensive weaknesses ( or maybe not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

)

YNWA i love u all. better leave before emotions get the better of me!!!!!!

woooo took me 40 mins to write this but it was worth it

And under RB more are still to come

by **desperado0831** » Thu May 26, 2005 7:08 am

OMFG,i just 24/7 sleepless untill now but i am still soar high - THE HIGHEST.

I am a malaysian and i am watching the match right beside a food stall nearby my house. Although i am apart from Istanbul but i still felt the fuel. I love that kind of atmosphere and i always dream of that as well as we clinch the sacred honours. Finally we did it with our best. All the best and this is just a start of another journey.

(p/s : some silly mancs fans around me watched the match for 45 mins and decide that we've loss)
