I guess we are just in the middle of discussing Juve v Pool. Good thing too, because they are in the middle of the game. Halftime with Liverpool up 2-0.

Cannavaro scores for Juve!

2-1 'Pool.

VARITEK HOMERS OFF OF MARIANO RIVER, TO TIE THE GAME AT 3!!!!!!!

Wrong thread.

Definitely Juventus' half now but the ref is being far more picky too.

Terry Venables (old England manager) sat in the studio keeps calling Del Piero just "Piero"

[Imran Siddiqui]

Yep, Juve are playing very good this half. Even if this score stands, Juve will only be down 1, heading into their home part of the tie, with 1 away goal.

[Imran Siddiqui]

s'over... Liverpool wins 2-1 on their home leg.

Great game!!

And yes, Del Piero was cheated from a goal.

[Imran Siddiqui]

Did you change your name again? For what reason this time?

[Maquiladora]

That was golden near the end, Zambrotta accusing Liverpool players of diving.

Id rather be in Liverpool's position if the second half is as good as Juventus can play. Nedved looked old and Del Piero was mostly quiet, the rest were on and off but nothing special.

Anyone calls me Az anyway.

[Imran Siddiqui]

I guess now when I want to taunt you, I can call you Azz

[C0ckney]

good game, liverpool looked a bit knackered second half, should be an interesting return leg

1-1 Lyon - PSV, good going for PSV

Hey cool! Liverpool-Juventus made it on the US Sportscenter. Well, it made it because of the rememberance of Heysel, but European soccer was still on American SportsCenter! They even showed the amazing Luis Garcia goal. Though they didn't mention there is a second round to tie, and made it seem like Liverpool won the Quarterfinals and was moving on. Alas, can't have it perfect.
