Soccer a game for winners,whinners and superheroes..

Top: Giggs was remarkable. Bottom: Hulk gets angry,Porto go through

The return to the wife Old trafford commenced a few hours back with Manchester United hosting Internazionale at the theatre of dreams. Pre-match people were saying Maybe Ibrahimovic will turn up tonight,maybe Mourinho will work his magic, Maybe he is born with it, maybe its maybelline, maybe..just maybe Inter would win it.

However, as maybelline's rivals Lorea'L would say.."because I am worth it", United proved their worth at Old trafford.That said, United players never stood to their gameplan which was simple. 4 defenders, 2 man midfield( Scholes,Carrick),1 Attacking Right forward(Cristiano Ronaldo),1 Attacking midfielder( Giggs) and Roo and Berbo up front. Clearly Giggs doesn follow instructions to well koz it ended up being 4 defenders, 3 man midfield(Giggs,giggs,giggs), 1 attacking mid(giggs) and 2 strikers (giggs and giggs). The man was a starbucks out let last night..All over the bloody place. Vidic laughed when he entered the pitch for the 2nd half when he heard " glory glory man United" playing.. He laughed at the fans! he thought.. "what a bunch of idiots.. we wont be marching on.. We will be buldozing on.."

To be fair, it was a pretty even game. However life is usually unfair so United took the game. And did not give it back. No splitsies. Dejan Stankovic lived up to his name in the game. He had 3 clear cut opportunities that went begging though. He also ventured up to support Ibrahimovic and Balotelli a lot but could not deliver that killer finish. As I said,he lived up to his name.. Stankovic.. He stanked. To be fair, inter huffed and puffed and to be fair, they played very well away from home but as I said life is unfair..

Last night, Someone asked me. Imagine if there was a tornado and you put the ball on the penalty spot at a stadium. If the tornado gets to the ball, what are the chances of it hitting the back of the net instead of flying all over the place. I calculated. 30% chance. The same friend looked at me and said are you sure such a high chance and I replied " that depends did u say tornado or tonetto? koz the former surely can do better"..

Max Tonetto skied his penalty so high it wasnt funny as Roma fell to Arsenal on penalties. A few journalist was wondering what happened and asked him. Apparently it was a mix up.He was listening to some music before the penalty shootout and the only song that was playing on radio when he was hearing it was S -Club 7's " Reach for the stars". Totti was stunned and we felt for him. How the man would have loved to be in Rome for the Champions League Final once and for all... Wait a second.. HE WILL BE IN ROME! good on ya mate! I am sure he will be getting front row tickets as well. I have never seen people so disappointed they could not travel to their own country. They played well and so did Arsenal. The youngsters pulled through and showed composure. Its a pity though.. Would have loved Manchester United vs Roma in the quarterfinals. At least we can start worrying about the semi-finals easier..right?.. that said 7-1 seems to be in fashion anyways.

Barcelona were the next to progress. 4-0 down at one point people were wondering. 3 questions were asked..

1. What went wrong for Lyon?

4-2 was a decent fightback for Lyon. 2 away goals are tough at the nou camp. But Juninho whined, Lyon unwhined. Bacelona hit them in their behind. 5-2. No way lyon wanna rewind..

LAstly, Porto and Atelico played. The match was a forgone conclusion with the Madrid men not even turning up. In an interview given exclusively to soccercrazee, Maxi Rodriguez had this to say..

Q: Maxi wad went wrong out there?

A: I saw him.. He was big... He wasnt GReen... He WAS ANGRY?

Q: Sorry?..NVm So Maxi why were you subbed for Forlan at halftime.Was it tactical?

A: Hez coming.. HEZ coming...(Runs off)

Q: ?.. Ah a porto player. hello Givanildo, how was the game? You looking weird today dude?
