    That's not true. There were no eye candy. There was a mexican couple behind me, so I had to make extra sure they heard it. I was at a wing joint with black folks, I'll be alright.

    They dropped bombs like black people play soccer? Hey that guy on the green team has dreads.

    Nah, it was fun.

    I'm just happy Buffalo Wild Wings shows soccer. All the tvs were on one game or the other.

    Wow great result for BVB! Puts Citeh in last and they still have to play Dortmund at the Westafalenstadion.

    Can't say that S04, BVB, and Malaga's wins are all shocker because they're not pushover sides...

    I'm picking PSG as my team for Champs League.

    Probably will bounce out at the round of 16

    Bump. More Champions League games today.

    Big games between the top 2 teams in groups B,C,D & G.
    And if Manchester City has any hopes of going to the knockout round, they better win today.

    Dortmund v Madrid 1-1
    Ajax v City 0-2 (hope its a 0-0 though)

    Madrid came out flat last time they played Dortmund, so Dortmund's counter is going to be crucial for this game. Kehl is a doubt so think Bender is going to start today. Gundogan is going to be the most important player for Dortmund today so hope he does well.

    Arsenal need to play a hell of a lot better today than they did the weekend and last week. Schalke is dangerous at home so good luck to them.

    Real are going to get killed on the counter attack in this 2nd half.

    Balotelli gets no call and City is eliminated.

    Very poor showing from the English champs.

    Team seems to be lacking chemistry.

    With Dortmund and Real also drawing, City are still in it, but its a long shot for sure. While City did not dominate the match against Ajax as I expected, they deserved and should have won yesterday. City scored the equalizing goal in the 87th minute only to have it called off for offside although there was none. Then, Balotelli gets held up and pulled back in the box, should have gotten a pk, but no call was made and the ref blew the whistle to signify the end of the match.

    Horrible officiating cost City 2 points and really hurt there chances of moving forward in the tournament. However, before we got to this point, City really hurt themelves by blowing two late leads against Real and leaving Madrid with no points, and playing poor football at Ajax in a game they should have won or drawn at the least but lost 3-1.

    Man United playing a awkward diamond formation today. Hope it pans out. One point to go to the next round I believe.

    Citeh won't go to next round. Don't they have to beat Madrid and Dortmund?

    Yup, nobody to blame but themselves for collapsing defensively against RM and Ajax, and they were lucky to earn a draw with Dortmund, who outplayed them. Joe Hart had the game of his life.

    What team are you rooting for, moes? Or is it just the entire CL? :confused:

    Mine's Manchester United... been following since Chicharito joined but I don't think he'll be there too long... has not been good lately... only two goals in league play, none in CL. :(

    I STAND CORRECTED! He played well on the first Braga leg.

    BRAGA vs MUN just started. Hope Chícharo does well again today, starting 11! ¡VAMOS, DIABLOS ROJOS!

    I'm a Man City supporter, but I like the CL action in general.

    Loved the Bayern v Chelsea final last year, such high drama.
