Oh, that's why they start that early, I already wondered what the reason might be...

Come on ruppende Fischköppe!

A Dutchman is ref at the HSV game!! Could become handy....

Could be. On the other hand, HSV still is a German team (really...). What a dilemma for the ref...

aint Hamburg a dutch side or do they have feeders clubs in Holland?

Hamburg starting strong, but nothing dangerous yet. They lack a deadly pass.

That's why a lot of people believe that HSV stands for "Holland Sport Verein" these days...


P.S.: What was wrong with the site? Couldn't access it for minutes.

benfica 2-0 united

The tempo is pretty high, but just one real chance for Moscow so far. Great save by Wächter though.

Kompany plays with number 10?

Yes.

Great haircut by Vagner Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuv there.

Yeah.. he has won that duel with Ljuboja..

Hehe. Klasnic has a similar one. Wonder why those Eastern Europeans believe that to be trés chic...

Well at least they are not playing in tight stone washed jean cut-offs

What's wrong with tight stone washed jeans? Oh wait...

Don't understand what plan Hamburg actually have in this match. They do have very good fullbacks in Mahdavikia and Sorin, yet they almost never try to break through the wings.

Wie wollen Tore sehen, wir wollen Tore sehen - wir wollen, wir wollen Tore sehen...

It's pretty damn annoying. Hamburg's passing lacks precision, that's their major problem so far. Moscow really don't look too frightening today, to put it mildly.

0-0 HT.

Rather boring match so far, lacks chances and goals. Hopefully, second half will be better.

I think HSV are playing a different line up; they are playing 4-4-42 with wicky and De jong in the middle, jarolim on the right and sorin on the left( but he is drifting alot in the middle) and sanogo and Ljuboja upfront.

I hope our game tomorrow will be more interesting...

It definitely will be. The two most attacking European sides playing against each other, I expect a lot of goals. Hopefully not against us though, but very likely...

I am really surprised csk moscow are playing a waiting game at home. Why can't they just attack and try to win their home games?

watched the first half not impressed.

Carvalho is ghost,Love not getting any service,Olic can play all night he wont score

so i think its time they sent For Jo.


Ljuboja

Moscow are increasing the pressure in the second half. Looks like they have realised that they need to win at home if they want to advance from this group.

Who is this Jp chap you keep raving about EM?

I'm guessing hes Portugese
