JUVENTUS V LIVERPOOL (2nd Leg, Champions League)...!!!
It'z already Tuesday, 12 April 2005...
come Wednesday (Thursday mornin), 13 April 2005...
liverpool will play thier most important game to date...!!!
Over the weekend...
we say how liverpool lost to Man City and gave bitter rivals Everton a 4 point lead...
but it was widely expected that they would falter in the Premier League...
Okie...
gonna leave the EPL alone for now...
lets concerntrate on the CL...
The game against Juve will be BIG...
mainly its for a place in the CL semi-finals...
its the last 4 baby...!!!
But sad to say...
its not only the game that comes into perspective...
it goes way back to 1985...
The Haysel disaster...
In Belgium, Haysel Stadium...
39 mostly Juventus fans lost their lives due to rioting cused by British fans...
and for the Italians...
especially Juve fans...
its not easy to forgive and forget...
During the first leg match in Anfield, Liverpool...
the club and its fans staged a beautifully choreographed apology towards the visiting Juve fans...
the Kop end formed a mosiac with the words 'amicizia' spelt out...
meaning friendship...
the message was greated with mixed reactions...
while most of them appreciated and applauded the gesture...
some section turned their backs or even flashed the internationally famous middel finger at it...
So now...
the talk of the town is that...
the ones which did not accepted Liverpool's friendship...
are staging an alleged revenge or vendetta when Liverpool visits Juve...
With the return leg match expected to be an emotional and important occasion...
both Liverpool and Juventus have urged thier fans to show restraint and be sensible...
after all...
everyone will prefer to watch a meaningful and beautiful game rather than to experience another 'incident'...
As for us fans in Malaysia...
our only main objective is to apprciate the upcoming game between our beloved Reds and Juve...
a win will be a magnificent nite...
So watch it live if U can...
Till here for now...
U'll Never Walk Alone...!!!
