What ghost goal?

Its ancient history now.

 

[Zidane98]

2005 semi obviously, seemed pretty inconclusive. But I've more than moved on.

I really cannot fathom why any Chelsea fan or Mourinho complains about that goal. Cech would have received a red card if not for the goal being awarded after he poleaxed Baros.

Like a penalty has never been saved or missed.

Obviously people can complain as the goal vision was inconclusive. To Pool fans it's a fair goal, to us it's not. Pretty easy to understand.

But not really the thread for it.

Oh I agree the goal was inconclusive. If the goal wasn't paid it was a penalty and a red card to Cech though which would have seen Chelsea worse off.

Yeah he would have seen red, but it's not a given that the penalty would have been scored I guess.

Didnt someone do some video analysis on that goal afew years ago to prove one way or the other?

Can't remember what the outcome was.

So you'd rather them chalk off the ghost goal, send off Cech and we have a penalty which we would probably score from anyways.

You were lucky with the "ghost goal"

Or Cudicini could have saved the pen, it's something we'll never know.

But hey it's history now.

Maybe but then you're playing most of the game with 10 men. If Cudicini doesnt save the pen, you're playing most the game with 10 men and a goal down.

It's history now though.

 

[chef]

Strong line up from Chelsea.

 

[ADL9798]

Us too, as you'd expect in a semifinal

 

[chef]

Nice.

 

[Hamez]

1-0 Chelsea with a Hazard penalty.

 

[ADL9798]

Very even game so far, been a battle of the defensive midfielders with Lucas & Matic both breaking up play excellently and restricting the influence of the #10's. Liverpool with the greater share of possession and creating more as a result, Chelsea happy to sit back and look for the spaces on the counter.

 

[jod23]

Classic Chelsea, away to a big club. Do nothing but defend and score lucky goals the other way. Avoid blatant pens too.

 

[chef]

Ok.

Yep, seems a classical away leg set up from Chelsea.

Blatant?, cmon man.

 

[biggiemediums]

I'm listening to some US commentator. Absolute w***er.

 

[ADL9798]

Great flick by Coutinho to Sterling, so nearly the equalizer

 

[ADL9798]

Raheeeeem!!!

 

[chef]

Good goal from Sterling

 

[Zidane98]

Deserved.

 

[Loonerty]

1-0 so early is never enough to invite so much pressure.

 

[lmach]

Nice.
