Liverpool vs Sevilla - Europa League Final - Basel - May 18th

[Pagnell]

I'm not happy with this start. Very tentative and little creativity.

 

[epic73]

Why isn't Kono starting?

 

[Pagnell]

Get in there you c*** .

 

[Stevencc]

What a strike.

 

[JimJams]

Amazing finish.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

That is an outstanding finish.

 

[GodsGift]

As soon as he received the ball I knew that was going on, stunning finish.

Sturridge is ridiculously talented - England's best striker when fit.

 

[SALTIRE]

Genius of a finish by Sturridge. Come on, let's fucking do this!

 

[JimJams]

Sturridge tut tut! Stopped it being 2.

 

[Pagnell]

I was dancing around the living room then. Cnut.

 

[Pagnell]

Another fucking penalty missed. Deliberately lowered his hand to the ball.

 

[Stevencc]

He was trying to tie his shoelace.

 

[Benji]

How many dodgy handballs have Sevilla had? Correctly disallowed goal, but Liverpool looking the better team at the moment. To be fair, Sevilla haven't shown much.

 

[SALTIRE]

Can't blame Sturridge for that one it was just instinct. Pity as it was a bullet of a header.

 

[JimJams]

Change the rules for accidental handballs to be indirect free kicks!

 

[GodsGift]

A Spanish side lumping it forward against a tactically superior English side. I could get used to this.

 

[JimJams]

Great volley Milner!

 

[SALTIRE]

Arghh any touch. ...

 

[JimJams]

Klopp Usain Bolting it in at half time. Must be gagging for a piss.

 

[Pagnell]

"It couldn't have gone to plan better if Jurgen Klopp had written it himself."

Er...yes it could. We could have gotten the second goal.

 

[Bilo]

Fucking c*nt of a Swedish ref.

Sturridge is everything.

 

[snortingfrogs]

We look like the much better team, just need at least one more goal to feel a bit more safe.

 

[SALTIRE]

Aye we were unlucky to get at least another especially on that early pen shout. Started off a bit nervy but were hitting top gear in that last 15 minutes.

Sevilla are an excellent team at coming back though but usually when they are at home. This isn't over by any means.

Whoever is doing the co-commenatary on BT Sports is seriously awful. Reckons if Liverpool had gotten the 2nd goal, it would have been a knockout blow. Evidently he didn't watch the last European final Liverpool were in.

I thought first 20-25 minutes Sevilla shaded it. Pressed Liverpool all over the pitch and gave them no space. Coutinho and Sturridge had barely been on the ball. But they switch off, drop off too much, couple of passes later and its in the net. What an amazing finish by Sturridge. After that Liverpool took over and probably should be 2-0 up now. Got to imagine Sevilla will come out strong in the 2nd half, wonder if Liverpool can maintain their tempo?

 

[Skinner]

First time I've ever sat and watched BT with the sound on, my god the commentary is awful.

 

[smat]

Liverpool are well up for it. Sevilla seem completely overwhelmed. Think Liverpool will win 3-0 or so.

 

[mistermagic]

Lallana and Sturridge get along don't they? Would be nice if Hodgson started both of them this summer. Look like a great proposition.

 

[smat]

As soon as he received the ball I knew that was going on, stunning finish.

Sturridge is ridiculously talented - England's best striker when fit.

England's most talented striker, definitely, but I'd rather have Kane. More of an all-rounder. Would rather see them both up front than Kane and Vardy.

 

[Jamie_SFC]

Seville aren't looking up to much, Liverpool should win this comfortably.

Been good to see an English side take this competition seriously. Qualifying for the Champions League via a cup win is better than finishing 4th/3rd/2nd and qualifying imo.

Owen creaming over Sturridge's strike.
