The Win

It is THE win alright. In an era where the Devils are the top club for so many glorious years, it is a rare occasion to see them go down to their fiercest rival these days.

Prior statistics had indicated that under boss Benitez, Liverpool had not snatch a win from ManU.
Adding to the fact, the two most important player Liverpool had were not playing, and it is really hard to imagine where can the Reds go in the match.




















"So....you think they can do it without us?"

The third minute goal by Tevez justified my, and most Liverpool fans', fear.

And just as I wanted to finish my teh tarik and decided to leave at half time, Liverpool show that they are no pushovers.

With a stroke of luck, Reds were level courtesy of Brown's own goal. A hard-to-believe luck really.



















Oh.my.gosh.

Then the miracle happened. Liverpool served themselves with chunks of possession and chances and threaten ManU like it was a Conference team (quoted from Fergie). And the hope was there once again, that we can get something out.

It paid off when super-sub Babel struck.















The joy that is seldom seen now in this shirt against a tradition fierce rival.


And to see a side that dominates the match against the English champions is a rare sight nowadays.

The win had somehow elevated my mood that night, and it was beneficial because I need to study for my exams. XD. Some people might not get the point. But really, the passion we footie fans have is illogical to explain at times.
