Let's Keep Our Chins Up

Losing is never easy to take but this time around, for the first 44 minutes or so, we controlled the match and failed to score. Milan played for a freekick outside the box and it got a Super Pippo deflection to beat Reina. Football is always a funny thing. Maybe the Gods wanted to even up the contest between the 2nd and 3rd most successful team in European football. When Kuyt scored the consolation with around 3-4 minutes to go, you start to become optimistic but I guess we wouldn't be so lucky in every Cup final that we play.

Anyway, kudos to the boys. They played their hearts out and went down with a fight. I will always be proud of being a Red and a loss will not dampen my love for them. Next season promises much more with a nice transfer kitty in sight, these 2-3 months could prove interesting for us. We'll come back better and stronger. Adversity makes better teams.

You'll Never Walk Alone! Let's look ahead to 2007/2008 with optimisim and conviction.
