It wasn't a great game at all, but of course joyous that we won because it was SO deserved! Pippo's first goal was questionable so I'm VERY glad he scored another, which was truly magnificent. I was very worried up until Pippo's first because we hadn't really had a "real" opportunity on goal until that point whereas Liverpool had several.
Oh, and deserved? Not sure we did, to be honest: we've had a great deal of luck throughout. Not to say I'd give it back, though!
As for Pippo, I never, NEVER doubted him. I knew he would deliver when we needed him most. It is what he has always done.
I didn't think Liverpool were that great, either: I think Dida only had to make two saves in the whole 90. I bet the beaten semi finalists were griding their teeth watching that...
Don't have much to add, but this seems like a perfect time to use this icon! What channel do you watch the games on? There is a whole soccer pay-set of channels on DirecTv, but we don't have it.
LOL! ESPN carried a lot of the Champions League games, including, if I remember correctly, all of Milan's. They were on either ESPN2 or ESPN Classic throughout the year. They air some Premiere League games, but not much else.
Unfortunately the only way to get Serie A games is to subscribe to that Sports Pack on DirecTV. Gol TV carried Serie A and La Liga this year (or a majority of the games...it certainly wasn't anywhere near all of them), but I think Fox Soccer Channel got the rights to at least Serie A next season. Both of those are in that Sports Pack. I cancelled the Sports Pack a couple of months ago due to us making some cutbacks, but it's considered like the movie packages are, so it isn't horribly expensive.
I might resubscribe again in the fall when the new season starts since this one is nearly over!
lol, I don't normally follow any game/sport Mr. Dexy isn't being paid to coach or my children aren't playing in, but the excitement is contageous. I just woke up Mr. with a little squeal when I saw this and blackmoonruby's posts.
