Inter Milan Win The Champions League!

As a Liverpool fan, I saw congratulations to Inter, great feeling to win it after so long (similar to us in 2005).

To achieve a treble is a great achievement, gotta say a big well done!

And as a Spurs supporter (Inter is my favourite Italian team) this has been a particularly good season :nanner:
 
Eto will never go back to Madrid because they treated him bad when they were always loaning him out and never gave him a Chance and Madrids prejudiced fans will never accept him as he is an ex-Barca player. But anything is possible in football for the right £$£$£$£$

hm, that makes sense...I'd really like to see him win alongside Mourinho again, but I know that's asking too much, even from one such as Eto'o.
 
For some reason it was on television today here, and with nothing better to do and nothing else on I actually watched it for about 20 minutes.

In the past I have very harshly ranted endlessly about how absolutely sucky a sport soccer is, and I have to say that after this I apologize...I was completely underestimating it's crappiness before and was going a lot easier on it than I should have. If this was some showcase by somebody at the television network to try to get more people interested in it here they have utterly, utterly, failed. Even if it instituted drastic rule changes I have suggested on this board in the past I don't think it could redeem it or make me not fall asleep during it let along want to watch it. People like to complain that baseball is boring for example, but even in it's worse moments I still get the sense something is happening and things are moving forward.

The US screws up a lot of things in the world and it's embarrassing in a lot of ways, but I have to hand it one thing. We don't like some abomination like that to the point we have made it a major sport. Why the rest of the non-North American world likes something like that I will never know. I'm not sure I ever want to know.

Out of all the legacies England has left behind, the creation, popularization, and spread of soccer has to be one of the worst ones. (I'm only half-joking.)

After those 20 minutes of me forcing myself to give it a shot, and I really tired, I couldn't take it anymore and switched the channel to a sewing show on public television, because those were the only two things I had to watch.

In all fairness it wasn't the most exciting of games as teams in Cup Finals tend to play cautious and defensive until towards the end, try catching a league game next season, either English (Premiership) or Spanish (La Ligue) or before then the World Cup.
 
Congrats to Inter, but that style of play is ugly. FOX picked the wrong final to air on the main channel. :D
Will Joe Sixpack finally accept soccer after watching this? I doubt it.

Is somewhere outhere.
I thought the better team won and I cant see why Mourinho should
go,when there is a challenge in defending the titles next year.

But I guess he's only looking out for himself really,although I don't
think he will be able to stop Barca ;)
