OMFG!!! What a match the FA Cup final was. I have no nails left and have grey hairs XDD I think it might have been even more nail-biting than last year's Champions League final, which is saying a hell of a lot, lol.
West Ham took a 2 goal lead and I started to go 'oh shit' but I did not lose the faith. Cisse got us back in it and then after half-time Gerrard levelled. From there I thought it would be pretty dull and would finish 2-2 but...West Ham scored again, from a ball that was clearly meant to be a cross, I half said no! and half said woah! XD Then we went for ages without a goal and I started to panic and was starting to lose the faith (but not completely!) and so when Gerrard scored that cracker in the 91st minute (despite being one of Liverpool's cramp victims) I went crazy. I ended up lying on my back on the floor and laughing like a crazy person XDD
So then it went to extra time and the save Reina made that kept us in the game. I was seriously worried cos more than half the team were having cramp attacks and Cisse couldn't run at all. The commentator described it perfectly 'it's like a battlefield out there'. I immediately thought of Shoalin Soccer XD Then the inevitable penalties came and I seriously had no idea which way it would go but did believe Liverpool would win it (they had good odds as they've won 8 out of the 9 they've participated in before). We scored 3, missed 1 and they scored 1, missed 3, therefore...WE WON!!
