CL Matchday 2 - Tuesday/Wednesday

Tuesday:
AaB - Man. United
Arsenal - Porto
BATE - Juventus
Bayern - Lyon
Fenerbahçe - Dynamo Kyiv
Fiorentina - FC Steaua Bucureşti
Villarreal - Celtic
Zenit - Real Madrid


Wednesday:
Anorthosis - Panathinaikos
Atlético - Marseille
Bordeaux - Roma
CFR - Chelsea
Internazionale - Bremen
Liverpool - PSV
Shakhtar - Barcelona
Sporting - Basel


Some great games, esp. on Tuesday:
- Zenit play against a Madrid side who have not won away from home in Europe for 2 years
- Man. Utd. have a tricky trip to Denmark where Ferguson's team selection will be key
- Arsenal v. Porto will be very interesting too...depends on Wenger's lineup after he promised changes, and whether Porto play to their full potential
- And of course the cracker between Lyon and Bayern, arguably the tie of this round

On Wednesday...Atletico-Marseille and Inter-Bremen are probably the most interesting ones on paper. Hopefully Bremen can take their free-scoring form into Europe as well.

Can someone please check if the sun really did rise in the East today?

Because Raul is on the bench

Really? Jaime posted the line up with him in it.

No, I just posted a probable lineup. Raul is on the bench.

Hmmm. Raul really comes to life in the CL.

----------------------Casillas

S. Ramos----Cannavaro----Pepe----Heinze

----------------Diarra-----De la Red

v.d. Vaart-----------Higuain----------Robben

------------------v. Nistelrooy

VAMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOS!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooooh! Zenit players look grumpy.

Higuain forces a great save from the keeper!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thought it was Ruud initially but it was an own goal.

That was fast

Man, Zenit are in shambles at the back. Almost a bad mixup between the defender and keeper.

Zenit starting cause trouble.

F*cking c*nt.

Real is getting too much defensive. This may become dangerous.

1-1 it was expected...

Thats what you get for not having a RW.

I like him. He is a hard worker and gives everything when he plays, and he is portuguese

Still, 30M? We'll see if he is worth it that much..

Half time in Saint Petersburg.

Thats three very good reasons to like a player

Honestly I don't think he is worth that money but I rate him highly.

What's the match like in general?

It's been a great game to be honest, lots of chances for both sides, mainly due to to poor defending.
