Football = Emotions

Posted by

Just a recollection of how I felt when we won the 2005 Champions League. This was written at the time.

Well Wednesday night is one I will never forget!! It has to be the greatest football match I’ve ever witnessed and for those not interested in football I am very sorry for this. It was also the weird football match that gave me so much.

I experienced so many emotions in one football match that I never knew it was possible. The game started disastrously as we was 1-0 down within one minute and I was abosolutely gutted and after going 2-0 down I was nearly in tears i wanted to break everything in sight! then 3-0 down I did almost start to break things I was so close to tears it was unreal… To make it worse watching the match with no other real Liverpool fans didn’t help so know one knew how I was feeling they was saying it was alright but I knew it wasn’t, it was more than just a game.

At half time I need a few minutes to myself and I actually prayed for us to win the game, it’s the biggest game the club has had in 20 years and I wasn’t ready for them to lose!!
Second half introduction of Didi Hamann brought hope I was asking myself why didn’t he start the game someone who is a great shield in front of the back 4. I must admit Rafa the gaffer got it right! when Gerrard scored hope was now reality i believed we could to do and the two goals that followed fuck me i was screaming jumping and shouting, no disrespect to Milian who had given us a game I knew we could do it, this was it!!
Extra time penalties we did it, Anfield Heros and legends!!! I just wish I had some more people to experience what was one of the greatest nights of my life, I can’t decribe the feeling too well cause it was indescribable!!!!
You’ll Never Walk Alone!!

  1. I do Remember that like yesterday, i believe i would’ve been 11, i just remember crying everytime they scored, angered at the team. And then crying again, for the next three goals to come but tears of joy not tears of sorrow. Added time was almost unbearable, especially shevshenckos chance in the very dieing minutes of it. but then the joy when he then went on to miss his finally penatly. and just recalling my dad say ‘Pinch me, tell me im not dreaming’ YNWA!
