what happened tonight???? CL FINAL

How the hell did we let that go so easily to liverpool??? where was shevchenko, with that penalty he was more a liverpool player than a rossonero. I'm stunned!!

Im speechless. I can't believe that happened.

can we just forget about tonight and learn from it. Talking about and discussing what happened should be left for a few days IMO. Everyone get a good night sleep if they can and tomorrow is a new season!

This is football, you take the rough with the smooth, 1 day for you and another against you, life goes on and Milan will always be Milan and we will all still be Milan supporters no matter what!

Lets get behind the team for next season so that they can paint a smile on our faces once more!

thats a good attitude walmania

just home from the pub where i watched the match surrounded by liverpool supporters including some of my best friends i cant believe we lost im in shock we completely dominated apart from 6 mins of madness im close to tears to be honest

i would have won 700 euro if milan had won 2nite but to be honest the money is inmaterial at this stage

next year hopefully

just a poor attitude in the team. the deportivo syndrome is deep deep deep in this team. either they have a supreme case of overconfidence or have no knowledge of how to close of games.

Nadir,
I agree with you completely there, I really do believe that we handed that trophy/title to liverpool tonight, I'm disgusted!

Is it ok if we have one thread to discuss tonight, the season etc.? other than game thread ofcourse

yeh sorry i didn't see another thread when i posted this one, oops :S

gemma, i watched about 80% of serie A games milan played this season and about 90% of Milan's champions league games. in the second half of the season, milan won a lot of games in the last minute using their closing show of laying siege to the goal and finally scoring in the 94th min. Milan tried that against Liverpool tonight but really, is that how you play a game to win!? The great teams put the result beyond reach and lock down and never let the opponents get a look in. Milan on the other hand, just throw away leads by
1) taking ridiculous shots at goal after being 1-0 up. PASS the ball to the open player!! Don't look for glory! (this happened in the brescia and siena games)
2) losing focus at the task in hand. what were they thinking just before liverpool score goal number 2 and why trip a player in the box? it is obviously going to be a penalty!
3) seedorf - enuff said.
4) too many overlapping runs by cafu. he is 34 and he is SUPPOSED TO DEFEND. if he runs so much, how can he defend?
5) stam - he is good at one position and that is centre back. and he is only good if he is not requred to run and if it is 1-on-1. if he is required to run he loses out. we need the return to the sweeper system. stam should be a sub.

actually having two threads is better... the other thread has a lot of "DAMN!! we lost" posts so we lose a lot of what is said

I can't believe we threw a three goal lead away. Liverpool where rubbish in the first half. Let's look ahead to next season when we will crown ourselves European champions again.

Not that I can write much usually and even less so now...but I hope we just don't take these events, last month or so, as an aberration and not look at everything including the defense.
Even forgetting about the about the game itself the penalties alone (the way they were taken) were in big contrast to the 2003 final. Something just wasn't right

It sure isn't how you play to win, in my mind to play to win means u dont give up until the whistle is blown, there has been too much of milan resting on their laurels after scoring, tonight it was the undoing of us!

Yes Shevchenko wasnt right! Tonight he really reminded me of Del Piero playing in the Euro 2000 final for Italy - just didn't try at all!!

we didn't lose on penalties tonight. we lost on attitude. as soon as it was 3-3 i knew it was over. there was no way liverpool were letting it go now.
i feel worse than when my ex cheated on me right now. at least there are other girls. there is only one milan
