double post.

Mate I'll reply to you by PM. I don't like him but he's a chelsea player and I need to respect that as I don't want to spam your forum at all!

Congrats mates! Football is a game of strategy each team having a single one. Chelsea made their game most of that deffending and trying to start quick the offensive play. Not a pretty game to be played to be honest but still football, still magic. Some friends tell me it was luck, it was awful football playing, it was a shit game...I don't care. I think the game and strategy was appropriate for each team you played against, well not very pretty! But a shit game? Bayern goal at 82 min, Drogba at 87! Penalty missed for bayern after regular time. Bayern ahead in penalty shootout and game (and final) decided on the last penalty for Chelsea. How could it be not deserved? How could it be called a shit game? I like Chelsea, I follow Chelsea to win all games (not against mine obviously) but I am a Benfica Supporter. So, If my true passion was Chelsea I think I would be dead by now. Such a Game!! Moreover, this cup is totally deserved for Chelsea! How can someone says a team who eliminates Napoli, Barcelona, Bayern and more important BENFICA not deserve the trophy? Strange world we are living in. I think the hate for some clubs and the ambition of some to win constantly the trophy are affecting completely their judgement and intelligence. Man of the match: definetly Petr Cech! Drogba always decisive but Cech being the most important one last night! Didn't like to see Meireles celebrating! Happy to see Luiz is still the same simple person who represented my club, that ridiculous hat and Jesus shirt...priceless! Ahh, those Brazilians! Enjoy the moment mates and don't drink small quantities of beer Pride of London!

Following the game from Portugal and supporting Chelsea! C'mon the blues! PS: At least let it stand in history we got eliminated by the European Champions.

Congrats for the passing mates! Well done! Bayern or real? Cheers

Not sure if it is appropriate but here is a video of the reception at Lisbon airport this morning around 5:00 am. Despite the emilination and having in account the attitude at the Bridge more than 300 Benfica Supporters received the players and gave them strengh for the next FINAL on Monday against Sporting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NEAI0Vx-m7w http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=3293231764472 Congrat's you guys for the passing. Later I will give my opinion about yesterday's game! Smash Barça and Platini please! Cheers

Yes, ITV1 and ITV1 HD.

I just registered to wish all Chelsea lads good luck for tonight. I am hoping a great game with Benfica always chasing to score against a deffensive side trying to take advantage of our fagilities on defense. It is one of those games in which everything can work out extremely well (and we win) or...we end up defeated by 3 ou 4. More important than that is that our players (and coach) have in mind our history and the importance of our symbol for the fans and try to do everything to win the game. Win or die trying! One thing I am sure of. The qualified team will be the team I will follow to win this Champions League edition as Chelsea is the club I "support" in England! All the best for you guys in CL and also on the premier league. It will be quite difficult to reach the 4th place but, in football, nothing is impossible. Cheers! BENFICA SEMPRE! Keep the blue flag flying high!
