So.. Can PSV topple the mighty ACM? I hope so.. but don't think they can.. I suspect a draw or Milan going through on aggregate scores..

Should be an entertaining game though, for both purists, fans and neutrals..

Yep, I'm skeptical but excited.

PSV has one problem though. For a 'lesser' (in finances if not in talent) team to get to the semi's are extremely good. But if they don't get to the finals their success is overshadowed by that other 'lesser' team, liverpool. (get's ready to be tortured).

So, GO PSV!

PSV played very well in the first leg, but their finishing was awful the milan keeper was never forced to make a difficult save. Much as I would like PSV to go through, I think their need to push forward for goals will allow milan some opportunities and if milan score then it's all over.

PSV controlled the game completely in the last leg and it was a shame that two goals were let in, one in the last couple of minutes. I only watched the second half though.

I hope PSV go through.

I wouldn't say that the controlled completely, not even in the second half. Milan still played well and created chances. I thought Pirlo was the best player on the park.

Even though PSV did well enough to create so many shots on and off target, it's a credit to Milan's defence for at least half of the shots that there was no threat. No-one can excuse some of Park's and Farfan's easy shots though.

Exam tomorrow & friday so I won't be watching it unfortunately. It'd be good to see a 'Pool v PSV final.

No man this will be the evening of the miracle of eindhoven. We will score twice in regulation and finish them off on penalties.

/wakes up

COME ON PSV!

So cruel

I think Liverpool have a better chance of beating Milan than they would have had against PSV...

Very harsh. Extra time would probably be fairer when it's all square, then away goals counting at the end.

The adrenaline is out of my body and I feel like shit.

And none of my friends like football, so I can't even go get ridiculously drunk. Well, I could but it wouldn't be much fun.

I don't know who to support for the final.

The CL ended for me tonight..

ManUtd, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Inter, Lyon and finally PSV.. all the teams I like are gone.. It seems the cynical defensive football will win again.. =/

I blame the stooopid away goals rule..

The better team over the two legs did lose tonight, PSV were very unlucky. I hope Liverpool win the final, because Milan don't deserve to be there.

We were chatting down the pub about the away goals rule. Personally I think its fair, anyone have a better suggestion?

Sorry deem, anyway if Everton get the 4th place Champions League spot and Liverpool win the competition, I think the FA should throw Arsenal out, as they've been fucking hopeless in the CL.

Milan played a Juventus type of game that I don't like very much. I suported them from the begining of the league because I think they have some of the most gifted players in the world, but that's not how the world's biggest team is supposed to win.

Anyway, I'm impressed with PSV. It doesn't look like a small team at all.

Watched it last night. PSV what a team! Over the two legs I though they should really have won it. To me they were the better team. The away goal late in the game was a cruel blow. The goal right after it ws a touch of class.
For a team that has fuck all money to spend they are possibly one of the best teams I have seen recently. Ye see Chelski money cannot buy you a Champions League.
Liverpool have a great chance to win it against Milan. To be honest I would have put my money on PSV had they gone through.
