Match Thread: Liverpool vs Leeds, 3rd Round CC Cup

[livvy145]

Leeds come close, great atmosphere

 

[livvy145]

Goal disallowed for Leeds

 

[23carragold]

this is shit, i cant get a good stream anywhere!! i need sky back!! im well pissed off!! :-[

 

[MaBigTip]

Another set piece goal allowed, *incorrect offside saves us

 

[ILD]

Who needs Glen Johnson, we've got Phil Degen, Who needs Glen Johnson, we've got Phil Degennnnnnnnnnnnnn,

 

[MaBigTip]

I really like Spearing, he is so calm on the ball, especially high up the pitch

 

[Judge Jules]

Degen still limping, I see. Not that it'll make much difference either way.

 

[MaBigTip]

Carra turned easily, shot wide and high afterwards

 

[gkmacca]

Wiley isn't giving us anything.

 

[MaBigTip]

Degen with an OUTSTANDING first touch on a 40 yard lobbed pass to him (distributor of the ball?)

 

[Judge Jules]

I've got the radio commentary on, and Lawrenson just this minute thought of the "Wash" nickname for N'Gog. You know, he's got more comedy talent in the whole of his body than most of us have in our little finger.

 

[MaBigTip]

Aurelio with a couple Alonso like passes and style of play (decent right footed play too)
Babel with a nice try to roll a cross through to Ngog, doesn't come off

 

[Sunny]

Great run by Babel let down by the finish. Positive stuff from him though

 

[MaBigTip]

Good defensive play, good (easy because of his pace) run by Babel but caught in two minds whether to shoot or pass, end up giving is a little swerving chip in to their keepers hands

 

[gkmacca]

With Leeds coming at us 100mph, Wiley needs to be firm as a ref and he's been shite, waving away every tackle that leaves one of our players down. So we're rushing things but there's some glimpses of good play, if only we can get some breathing space.

 

[MaBigTip]

Good play in the air by Degen (easy but we any good he does is nice right now and to be fair he is doing a lot of it) Cavalieri looking shaky but to be expected he hasn't played. He'll buckle down he usually does.

 

[MaBigTip]

Ryan Babel has constantly made things happen and made himself constantly available to recieve possession 😱 😛rays:

 

[gkmacca]

Reina keeps cutting inside on the left. He should go wide. We're getting clogged in the middle. Babel's looking decent though.

 

[Judge Jules]

What's Pepe doing on the overlap? 😱 😉

 

[MaBigTip]

Good free kick by Aurelio. Beams happily to see him taking them again. Not attacked well at all by either team.

Riera then! 😛

 

[Sunny]

Macca's right. Babel is looking like a footy player so far.

 

[red_maradona]

who is better beckford or ngog?

 

[MaBigTip]

Spearing take the selfish route instead of trying to play Ngog in. Babel makes an acrobatic attempt to win the ball in the final third. Does but only get one touch to the ball.

 

[gkmacca]

Wiley is just the ref you don't want for this kind of match. He's basically saying help yourself when Leeds clatter into us, and he's blowing when we tackle.

 

[Sunny]

Krygiakos booked. Rightly so. Ref's a cunt tho.

Wiley is a fat, immoral, cunt.

 

[MaBigTip]

Greek good defensive header stopping a route 1 attack early.
N'gog gets to a forward played ball before the player.
Does well to play Riera in who beats his man and delivers a poor cross as per his usual 2 in 5 ratio of good croses.
Greek gets a yellow card.
N'gog forces Crowe into a yellow

 

[Dahuge]

shoulda scored. Poor header from reira

 

[Cerberus]

good save in fairness
