Liverpool just won the Carling Cup final, playing against Cardiff. the score was 1-1 at full time. Extra time of fifteen minutes each way was played, resulting in a 2-2 score line. It went to penalties. Cardiff scored twice, Liverpool scored three times. First bit of silverware LFC have won for something like 6 years. Everyone here has a wide smile. -- "Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee". -John Donne (1572-1631)

Just about everyone I know is a LFC supporter. My mate an his dad are both marshals at home games at Anfield Park. There are probably as many supporters of Everton around here (the *other* Liverpool team) and many Manchester United fans, too (Man. U. is probably the biggest sporting franchise in the world).

LFC at one time was the team to reckon with and might be again if they get the right manager. JS

Well, most of you USAians just can't wrap your head around 'the beautiful game'. As a famous former Liverpool manager, Bill Shankley, said about the game, 'It's not a matter of life and death- it's more important than that'. :-) When two teams play in a cup final and the scores are equal after ninety minutes, they then play fifteen minutes each way. If, at the end of this further thirty minutes of play the scores are still level, then it goes to penalties. Each team may take turns at kicking the ball at the goal from the penalty spot for a total of five goes each. If, at the end of this penalty session the scores are *still* level, it goes to 'sudden death'. The teams take turns taking penalties and the first team to score wins the match, and thus the cup. Yesterday it became more tense right up to the final kick. The Cardiff goalie *had* to save the shot, the Liverpool player *had* to score, as both teams had previously scored two goals each during this stage. As I said- nail-biting stuff right to the end. -- "Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee". -John Donne (1572-1631)

I've watched hockey games before that were really interesting, and I had no earthly idea what was going on. The only game I couldn't tolerate was cricket. We went over to St. David's island when I was living in Bermuda to see a cricket match and honestly, it was the most boring thing I'd ever seen.
