is because both sides were looking for the draw to qualify in Group
D together - RUBBISH - right?
ATLETICO DE MADRID has gone away from Anfield with a 1-1
draw after the referee called an non-existent penalty in the last
minutes of play in favour of LIVERPOOL FC. Thats Football, right?
Both teams played brilliantly, it was end to end stuff & the home
crowd of Liverpool was giving their side wings. But , Atletico were
pumped & better positioned with the reward coming in the 36th
min when MAXI RODRIGUEZ scored a great goal to put his team
ahead.
The rest was typical. Liverpool going after the draw & Atletico the
counter & to keep out Liverpool. It looked like that would happen &
give the Spanish side the dream win, when the unthinkable & the
non-existent happened. Like magic the referee call a penalty in favour
of Liverpool that did not occure. Both Pernia & Gerrard contested
the ball in the area without any foul, in fact the referee blew before
contact. Baffled!!!
STEVEN GERRARD scored the penalty in the 95th min to draw &
leave the Atletico crowd asking ..."What happened"?
See a full summary & the highlights of the game in this video:
In the other game with Spanish representation, FC BARCELONA
drew 1-1 with BASILEA in Group C. Surprising result as everyone
expected a goal rush for Barça even though this win gave them
automatic qualification for the next stage.
Slow, inaccurate & sloppy play from Barça who scored in the 63rd min
thanks to MESSI. Then it happened, DERDYOK scored the equalizer in
the 83rd min. Even the Basilea Goalkeeper Franco Costanzo ( below)
celebrated the goal. SFS supposes it was a case of: got the job done!
The only bad news is the FC Barcelona will lose Iniesta to injury.
He will go medical examination to see the extent of the damage. Tweet
