All you need to know is that if Bordeaux beat Bayern, they are through to the next round.
Oh, and the evil half of the Big 4 are playing as well.
Oh, and the evil half of the Big 4 are playing as well.
Only a quarter of the evil half of the Big 4. I see no mention of Liverpool anywhere.
Wait…half of the evil half.
WSR – setting back math since 2007!
1987, but who’s counting (correctly)?

Manure 3 – 1 Moscow
Meelan 2 – 2 Madrid
Marseille 3 – 0 Zurich

FC Zurich are a little late with the Halloween spirit with their pumpkin-orange kits
1-0 Marseille in the 3rd minute. Most people haven’t even sat down yet. OG header off a L’OM free-kick.
OOPSIE!
It must be Halloween in Zurich, with the International Date Line and whatnot.
Come On You Red Devils!!!
HALP! I’m alone in here with 2 ManPoo supporters!
That’s quite the backline Man U is trotting out.
I’m not sure how Chelsea-Atletico is a a better matchup for FSC to broadcast than United-CSKA.
@Highbury Library: The Azzurri are surely taking notes.
@Library: Backline? Entire freaking squad.
and it’s 2-0 Marseille in the 11th on a goal from Abriel
I’m alone in here with 2 ManPoo supporters!
ermm…double entendre? or double penetration?
@Library: That’s quite a squad United’s trotting out.
Fletcher missed by 3 inches…
Can someone at soccernet turn the f**king scoreboard on? Those of us with s**tty jobs and overzealous IT departments can’t stream s**t.
@Roy: They’re busy f**king the help right now. Leave a message, and they’ll get right back with ya.
I’m expecting much more activity in this thread tomorrow, when both Arsenal and Liverpool play. Is that about right?
I didn’t think commie soccer lovers were allowed to f**k at work.
My s**tty feed died, and we gave up a goal. F**K.
@Roy: These are ESPN people we’re talking about. They’re all about T&A in the office.
What the f**k?
(I’m relying on you clowns and the BBC Livetext.)
Little Mikey Owen claws it back
Michael Owen!!!
1-1
Benzema, too.
so, it’s 1-1 in the ManUre match, then?
Dida is so pants.
Yes. 1-1.
Caroline Cheese is worthless compared to the Umlaut.
F**k. 2-1 Communists.
Apparently, Real Madrid have not scored in Milan since the ’50s (or something).
Dammit. I expected no other “good” goals over there. Krasic!
bah, Zurich pull 1 back. 2-1 Marseille after the defense bottled it
I, um, thank you? No idea.
oh, Bayern are denied a PK after Diarra gets a hand on the ball while lying down, preventing it from going in. Bad luck
PENNO!
No shortage of goals here today, it appears.
these Mesopotamians keep screwing me on the Bordeaux feed!
Caroline Cheese is worthless compared to Cheez-Whiz.
A banner on soccernet is giving me the opportunity to win FIFA 09 by winning EPL fantasy for the 08/09 season!
DAMNIT
yeah…i was thinking that…nine goals in eight matches before halftime. seems to be a scoring orgy at the moment.
Milan just got absolutely f**ked out of a beautiful goal by Pato.
Arbeloa can’t stop Ronaldinho? Shocker.
gamecast has real madrid with 13 shots (5 on frame) already. jesus.
@ The Fan’s Attic
so many little blue circles
I just got home ten minutes ago and haven’t seen any defending from either team, so that’s probably accurate.
and Gourcuff puts Bordeaux in front in the 37th!
Just a guess, but is Kaka woefully underperforming for Madrid this year?
anyone else having troubles with all of the atdhe streams?
These neckwarmers are ridiculous. Really not helping the sport’s reputation here.
so um, this Milan game is being horrifically called…..
Benzema’s goal? Offsides
Milan Pen for handball? Hit his armpit
Pato disallowed goal? Thing of beauty, totally legal
Not to mention that the ref is legitimately not blowing his whistle for anything, as everyone is falling over every 10 seconds
Gerrard’s goal v. Olympiacos is being used in Funai commercials for HDTV? Yeah … that game definitely wasn’t available in HD anywhere.
eleven goals in 8 matches at halftime. nice.
I hate you Xabi Alonso, hate hate hate hate hate.
@Georger: but you used to love him so…you’re probably just jealous.
Think so doctor?
here, take two big rips off this and call me afterwards. we can discuss your feelings then.
/writes scrip for self-medication.
Arbeloa es muy s**tty
it’s 3-1 to russians!
Because I don’t understand the Ukranian language is it only in my head that Bayern’s Timochtchouk sounds a lot like what Apache Chief used to say when he became super sized (Inyuk-chuk).
We’re getting housed in our own stadium. AWESOME.
Oh wow… I totally forgot it was at the OT. F**k yeah, I totally just went all Fox Network on your stadium’s ass.
Okay, I’m off to punish myself for that.
I mean, it’s enjoyable to see United lose, but they still qualify easily right? All this does is make things trickier for Wolfsburg.
Chelsea losing too, Aguero scoring against his new employer.
Uh, who clued Atletico in to the fact that they can score and not just concede in the CL?
@PR: The Russian mobsters.
You didn’t really think United would lose did you? Come now, they always pull that off.
Kaka and Ronaldinho are totally f**king.
26 goals in 8 matches. over 3 goals a game…awesome.
