Arsenal should have won
Liverpool won because of one guy.
Owen with two brilliant strikes.

What a brilliant game!!!
Even tho I don't follow either of the 2 teams I was very impressed with the game. Soccer is so skilfull and flowing, I just wish we could pinch some of those players to come to Aust.
What else impressed me was the atmosphere and the sea of colour supporting the teams. Its something that will never be achieved at an afl game..its not the culture here..the singing and chanting is mind blowing.....
I hope we can get the Soccer Roos to the World Cup final and the game that counts is at the "G" then maybe we can generate some of that passion seen at Cardiff tonight.

One the AFL would be wise to adopt is the F.A. Cups pre- match "ceremony". It was short and sweet. It was five times better than the Grand Final pre-match festivities the AFL does every year.
I also like how the players get the trophy straight away and don't "waste time" talking to the crowd, like happens in most Australian sports. Maybe some of you like that sort of thing but to me there's too much talking involved over here.
To another point, how come the national anthem wasn't sung? I'm sure they sang it before every cup final in previous years.

THis years FA Cup ensapsulated everyting I hate about this game.
The first half was dull and boring, both teams just knocked it around in the midfield for 45 minutes, seemingly disinterested in scoring a goal (hello ? - whats the object of the game ?)
In the second half, it was more of the same except Arsenal actually got around to trying for a goal (I am nodding off at this stage) a few times, but without success.
Late in the game now and its still Arsenal Arsenal Arsenal - but hey guess what ? no goals !
Arsenal have absolutely sweet FA to show for their dominance.
Then finally - a goal to the Gooners ! Thank God I thought, at least they actually scored - what a freakken miracle.
Then the worst part - Liverpool score two quick goals care of Michael Owen and pinch the game.
They had done absolutely NOTHING the entire afternoon and but hey, this is soccer, and if you can jag a couple of goals after playing like drongos all day then good for you.
How I sat through this rubbish without chewing my leg off with boredom I'll never know.
So there you have it - a boring dull encounter, where the best team lost, and yours truly kept on having to switch over to Parliament Question Time just to try and stay awake.
At least Man fuggin United weren't playing.
