AD do you love Barca or what? That was the definition of inadvertent and it gave Alves a better chance at it.
Please admit it? it was an awesome game to watch
A valid goal disallowed and a clear handball in the box not called?
Arsenal with the victory 2-1. Some bad/missed calls, but I don’t feel like the scoreline was too undeserved.
That was as clear a penalty as you can have. Call this damn game fair.
CLEAR HANDBALL
CLEAR HANDBALL
Love it.
Goal scored by Ivan Klasnic.
Bolton up 1-0 against Wigan in the 87th minute.
Wow.
Just wow.
yessss!!!!!!!! arshavin from nasri
He really is at the center of their team right now, just fabulous work.
great comment from the announcers “Wilshire a boy playing like a man”
Barca just falling apart here in the 2nd
Arashavin!!!! What a match this has been.
Barca is really overcomitting on the last few plays
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL!
2-1 ARSENAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ARSHAVIN!!!!
Ives, I just did and the game will be shown delayed. Epic fail.
actually he plays alot of league games, i’m pretty sure they’re giving busquets the start for today. Just regular rotation i guess.
So now the legitimate disallowed goal comes into play.
VAN PERSIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Van Persie!!!!
Regardless of result, Wilshere has been amazingly good. Best I have seen him look.
dam thats pretty nice. And they even have one on Arsenal as well haha. Cesc.
Referee 10 feet from the play disagrees.
Arsenal’s ball?
These linesmen are trash.
The other game (Roma v Shantak) is awesome Roma is pushing hard for an equalizer and Shanktak hasn’t gone into defense only mode
Homer vision? David Villa had the last touch there pretty obviously.
The game i am watching, the one where Villa touches it last
Word life.
What game is the announcer watching? The defender clearly toe pokes that out.
If Serie A is bad are you lowering the value of Tottenham’s win yesterday? I watched that whole match and they completely dominated a talented AC Milan side. If I remember correctly, Shakhtar is the reason Arsenal did not finish first in their group. They are not as bad as some seem to believe.
I am not a fan of either team, but are Barcelona players made of glass? I wouldn’t go so far as to call them dives but any amount of contact and they’re on the ground.
I really hate when players look for a penalty. that was the best chance you’ll get on goal
So, I have a few friendly wagers I’d like to make with you…
playing: valdes, pique, xavi, iniesta, messi, busquets, pedro.
bench: bojan
injured: puyol and jeffren
DIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mike, that wasn’t 3 away.
Wasn’t 3 away goals
Not 3 away goals
Fulham against Juventus? That was 3 down wasn’t it?
Has anyone ever come back in Europe from 3 away goals?
Yeah if Inter go down like AC and Roma than this is a horrendous showing from Serie A
I don’t know man, Roma isn’t exactly the cream of the crop. That’s like judging la liga by watching Valencia tie a low Bundesliga team.
It does not paint a complete a picture
Wilshere has been looking real good. I think the future of England label fits him pretty well.
just saw mascherano on the sideline… just wondering, has he played a single minute for Barca since leaving Liverpool? what a dumb transfer. goes from fan favorite to bench warmer
lol. Gotta love the Barca fanboys.
Actually, when you can just google a translation your comment is a bit more moronic.
He lives next door to me.
