liverpool wins again (:

Liverpool won in the match against Middlesbrough with 2-1. again, another victory for the kop (:
i just noticed there's a muslim in LFC and that's Nabil El Zhar. a pretty fast player is all i have to say~ oh yeah, here's the current table of the league;



right, i wanna congratulate Argentina as they won a gold medal in the Olympics' men football. Nigeria came in second with silver and Brazil came in third with bronze. it was cute how the Argentines celebrate their victory and how they jumped up and down on the platform excitedly when it was their turn to receive the medals.

that's pretty much what i wanna say about football (: anyway about MY life, things been going smooth and okay but it's pretty much HELL whenever it's time for chemistry. things change, BIG change. i actually cried after the lesson was over because the way the teacher was teaching, if i have a weak heart, i'd suffer from it and collapse due to a heart failure. it was a lesson in HELL and unfortunately, i have to go through chemistry 3 times in a week ;___; but it doesn't matter, i'll only have at the end of August and the whole September to attend this wretched class. i just hope i obtain a CREDIT in my chemistry and the other subjects in this oct-nov o lvl.

Argentina's heading for the finals!

Beijing Olympics 2008- football men
Argentina vs Brazil: 3-0

YEAH Argentina won the semi-final and they're going to the finals against Nigeria! (of all countries... so unexpected) Argentina really thrush Brazil during last night's match. the Argentines played well and i love their play. they're fast on their feet and their awesome technical skill was visible. the match had the Brazilians 4 yellow and 2 red cards while the Argentines faced 3 yellows only. not to mention, the Brazilians faced 2 offsides and the Argentine faced no offside at all. there was NO mercy for Brazil. few outlines and pictures of last night's game:
  • Sergio Aguero, 16 scored 2 goals for Argentina at 52' & 58'
  • A Brazilian player (sorry, i can't remember his name) had his foot stuck out in front of Argentina's Riquelme Juan which tripped him in the penalty box. a penalty was given.
  • Riquelme Juan scored during PK at 76'
  • Javier Mascherano, 14 was tackled ruthlessly by Lucas and Thiago Neves of the opposing team. Both were given straight red cards and sent off.
  • Pareja Nicolas was given a yellow card for tackling a Brazilian player (it's clear that i FOCUS on Argentina xD)

Ronaldinho struggles to score a goal for Brazil.


One of many shots when the Argentines celebrate their victory.

Argentina deserves to go for the final and their won brought me smiling. It's sad that Italy lost in the quarterfinals against Belgium. that match WASN'T fair. most of the Belgians played rough throughout the game and the referee did small concern or nothing about their brutal play! what irritates me was when Rossi ran upward heading for the post and the GK just jumped out to him and anchored Rossi's foot leaving him to fall. what made me scream was when the referee gave Rossi a yellow card! what the hell?! he tripped and it was made by the GK! the GK was injured but it's not Rossi's fault now is it? *sigh* it was painful to see the sad expression on poor Rossi's face. Another tackle made by in the penalty box towards the Italian was another thing. the Italians WEREN'T given any penalty shoot! only god knows how pissed i was watching the whole game. when the game was over, a Belgian poked Bochetti in the shoulder and it was seen that Bochetti seemed to be in pain where actually he was faking it. it was really funny when the commenter said;

"He was pretending to be hurt! that is pathetic! what a pathetic attempt from Bochetti."

but at least the scores didn't look bad, 2-3. Italy's just a point behind them and it's pretty unfortunate that they lose and went back home ;__;
