Alhamdulillaah. I awoke at around 4:00 am. Unplanned it was though. But I was glad because it coincided with the time my favorite team played :D LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB! But I was a bit pessimistic, because they were up against a no-need-to-introduce Spanish league GIANT! REAL MADRID FC! Both financially and reputation-ly (is there such a word? :P). I did not expect Liverpool to win actually, especially with their talismanic captain, Steven Gerrard on the sidelines (he did come on as a sub tho! Yeaho!!!), and not at full fitness.

Anywayz... Watched the match, and surprisingly... I did not doze off! I mean... tak ngantuk la pulok! Plus, Liverpool was playing quite ok football :) Real Madrid were also good, but they lacked the proper finishing... which was a good thing. Real did manage to find the back of the net once, but Alhamdulillaah, off side. Hehehehehe... So selamat.

But I was really2 happy in the 83rd minute (I think)... When Hienze (ex Man-U ek?) fouled Dirk Kuyt on the right side of the penalty box. Man... this was a chance! And out of all the players... it was a (relatively) short jew that scored :P kekeke. Benayoun la pulak yg sumbat goal. Tapi takpe la... Yahudi pon yahudi lah. Janji goal. And Alhamdulillaah, Liverpool played well and hard until the end of the game to hold on to that lead. 1-0... Liverpool's way! Bravo my team :D And bravo Rafa Benitez :D

Now wait for the second leg to be played at Anfield. Harap2 they will do well on their own turf... :D

Oraitey. Selamaaat....

LIVERPOOL!!! YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE!!!
