Arsenal qualified for european champions league final!!!!! first time ever in history, that arsenal has gone this far, and probably further. the final will be on 17 may in Stade de France (Paris).
arsenal just drew villareal in spain, a goalless draw. i've predicted that it's gonna be a draw, so apple do you believe me now? lol... as expected strategy from arsenal, they play defence. now they've broke the record of keeping clean sheet in european soccer for 10 games, furthermore they're known as an attacking minded team. when clichy gave away a penalty at 89th min, my heart sunk. disappointment filled me and yet remained hopeful. lehmann didn't disappoint me and save riquemel's last min penalty.
the 1st leg, i watched in in chalet last week. arsenal won 1-0 at home, as expected again... fraser, do u believe me now? lol... i didn't post, since i've no time. all the rush to hk and stuff. arsenal is gonna play against either barcelona or ac milan in the final, both are high profile team. but i've faith with the young gunners.
for champions league, arsene wenger played a 4-5-1 (4-2-3-1) formation rather than his normal 4-4-2, it concentrates on counter attack. henry as lone striker in front, 3 attacking midfielders (reyes, helb, ljungberg, pires), 2 holding midfielders (fabregas, gilberto, diaby), 4 defenders (eboue, senderos, toure, flamini, campbell), and last but least the keeper, hero lehmann. lauren (right back), ashley cole (left back) and clichy (left back) are injured for the whole season. i'm really surprise on how the young and unexperience defenders glued together to put up such a good show. furthermore, flamini who plays at the left back is a right legged centre midfielder. all the defenders are <21, except toure 25. midfield was well held, and fabregas is marvellous, who is only 18. lehmann, the hero tonight, saves gunners' ass for countless time in this tournament and beat kahn to be german's no.1 keeper. congrates... next is the god of highbury, none other than thierry henry. the club loves you, the team loves you, the fans love you, so please stay in arsenal. i've faith in your loyalty...
