That was a bloody brilliant save. It was a bit lucky, but fantastic reflexes nonetheless.

it sure was both lucky and brilliant. sweet redemption for Dudek today!

@swag-Liverpool have been extremely orginized in the CL this year. against Milan, well, things sort of fell apart in the first minute, but against Leverkusen, Juve, and Chelsea 'pool were very organized. and Porto never had to beat Milan, Chelsea, and Juve ;)

My point was neither Porto nor Liverpool nor Red Star of Belgrade are one of the greats today, they're not a Milan or a Barca whom you'd see as worthy opponents though they won a CL.
the difference between Liverpool as opposed to Belgrade and Porto is that we have a real history in Europe, and while we were maybe the10th best squad in the CL this year, we are no featherweights, if only for our history

Red Star had a great generation , and also was one of the greatest teams those years,but today Red Star is ruined by catastrophic economical situation in the country,and will NEVER be back at the top.
So,we actually cannot compare Porto, Liverpool and today's Red Star.

Some of you juve supporters are pathetic. Celebrating Milans undeserved loss like you´ve won something great. At least Milan showed millions of people around the globe some beautiful football, football that juve can only dream about to play
Congratulations....i guess

While I do agree that Milan was the better side and Liverpool got help with Lady Luck, so to speak, Milan needs to take full blame for blowing a three-goal lead and not finishing them off despite the circumstances.

No one gave us a break when we blew our 8-point lead in the Scudetto race to Milan, and we didn't deserve one. That's for sure.

True but i clearly said "Today" Pool hasnt done anything in europe in over 20 years Pool fans themselves willa dmit to their fall from grace. I congratulate you and Pool fans for the win but you have a long way to go to be taken seriously, my opinion.

that's true, but today we did something that will make teams take a bit more seriously ;) of course, milan could well be in next years final, and even if pool get to enter the competition they probably wont go too far, but still. a bit of luck, talent, and a lot of hard work, heart, and determination can take you very far

but people will not forget today. btw, I think you need to calm down a bit ;) come on-every champion needs some calls to go their way and a bit of luck to help them out. I doubt you will find a sigle CL winner that didn't get that kind of help

I was watching the final in the dead of night yesterday,I must say it was probably the most emotional non-Juve match I've ever witnessed.I really wanted Milan to win this one so so badly,at the end of the first half I was delirious with joy and actually contemplated going back to sleep-how in the world was Liverpool going to avoid making bigger fools of themselves in the second half with Milan playing like that,much less stage a comeback against a 3 goal lead?

I was close to tears when Gattuso fouled for the penalty,really I was.It was unthinkable how they could be on level terms just like that; when the final whistle was blown I was still in denial over the fact that there was going to be extra time.

The first few penalties were heartstopping,but just when there seemed to be a flicker of hope Sheva stepped up.At that moment I knew he was going to miss it,for some reason.It fit the scenario perfectly.Liverpool were the heroes,beating the overconfident Italians after Milan went into the break three goals to the good.Having their talismanic Ballon D'Or winner miss the penalty under would be the final nail in the coffin.Salt into the wound.Insult to injury.

I have sworn off reading the papers or visiting any football websites for the next two weeks; seeing Gerrard lift the trophy once was painful enough.

I can xpress how happy im about those red and black losgin the final...


foking holy shit.......... whata a game.... first those 3 goals... i really though liverpool was done.... but they showed the character they were missing in the first half and the game became really cool .


yeah i have to admit that the penalty was not clear... but in the first half the cheater nesta touched and deviated the ball with his hand and no one say a thing about it. So i think that the referee fault in the end paid for that hand of nesta.

So andy it was not toally referees fault.
About dudek---- yeah he cheated.. but well what can we do?.


Anyways... Milan lost and that reall feels me with joy..


empty handed this season JAJAJAAJAJ.

For you Milan haters you can check out pics at http://www.raisport.rai.it/raiSportSezioneIndex/0,5785,_78_61_10359,00.html

Again Milan truly missed Ambrosini today. I sympathize with both Seedorf and Pirlo because both are experienced and great players who seem to suffer from dip in form at the worst time. Milan lacked concentration during those six minutes and thats what gave them up. Pirlo just looked damn tired, even when he wanted to take the penalty. I wonder if this should be blamed on Carlo seeing that he recycled the same team for every match not considering rotating? Personally I feel that Milan should've put Brocchi when they made a substitution
