Liverpool beat Madrid by a single goal...A SINGLE GOAL. A set piece free kick, that could have been as easilly headed out as it was in....and that's it.

Liverpool didn't look like they were going to score for the rest of the game.

Jesus...if we'd slaughtered them 4-0 at their gaff, I'd understand the "disbelief" some people have here.

Did you watch the match? Just asking as Casillas basically kept them in the match in the first half so saying that we didn't look like we were going to score for the rest of the match is ridiculous!

Of course I watched the feckin match. Apart from Torres' shot in the first half, there was no real goal threat from us.

We weren't that hot on Wednesday night.

A whole country acknowledging Liverpool's superiority disagrees you.

comeon mate considering who the opposition were and given the fact that its an away cup fixture i'd say Rafa got it fckin spot on at the night... very efficient and comfortable win and couldnt have asked for more really...

We play a defensive style and it works very well in cup competitions because basically not losing means winning in such games... and not losing is something we seem to be very very good at more often than not.. league is a whole different story and i'd agree with most of the criticism Rafa gets on that front..

I couldn't care less Sabre. What I saw on Wednesday was pretty a  pretty average Liverpool for the most part against a dire Inter ...and a single goal from a set piece.

Again, I say, it's not as if we went to their gaff and slaughtered them is it?

that explains it...

Yeah we weren't out of this world but we did very much deserve to win regardless of how a goal came about as we had the clearer chances. The problem I had with your previous comment is the fact that Real Mardird are a great team who were a great run of form so its not like they're  going to provide crystal clear chances especially at the home.

Agreed, I'm not saying it wasn't an efficient set up etc, but the fact is, the result was hardly a rout against Inter....ah....um....er Real (yeh thats it)...and they were pretty into the bargain.

My point is though, it's ticking me off, all this "we beat Real, but we can't be Boro.....blah blah..."

God...give it a rest.

But they were appaling on Wednesday and we weren't that great either, which is why this "disbelief" over todays result is s bit silly.

I haven't listened to what Rafa said today but I bet he didn't say "we controlled the game".

Sometimes it's not only the defeat, or the result, it's how it happens.

Sometimes you win 3-0 in a game the opposition were good. Sometimes you win 1-0 in a game you're totally supperior to the opposition. Sometimes you draw when the fair thing would have been a victory.

But today's game was abysmal, and today I'm not that surprised to see stick to Rafa and some players. Because today the team has played a hell lower than their best.

If you think this was "just another dissapointing game no different to others" then I disagree.
