Liverpool In Europe, Borderline Unbeatable

Liverpool were incredible last night, from the first second of the game Real Madrid weren’t allowed a second to use the ball creatively. Casillas made two world class saves within a minute. Suddenly the Anfield cauldron erupted and the rest was history.

On top form at Anfield in Europe, Liverpool are unplayable. They play with an energy and tempo unlike any other team in the competition. Players like Raul, Sergio Ramos and Robben who are performing consistently in La Liga got swept aside by Liverpool’s momentum. Rafa deserves credit for his European prowess, however domestically he has ruined the clubs best chance of winning the league that I can remember.

A few facts from last night. Inspired by offthepost.com

Torres was world class in the first half.
He didnt foul Pepe for the opening goal, Pepe got the ball wrong.
It wasn't a penalty.
..but when you flap your arms around like Heinze does for 90 minutes its an occupational hazard.
Steven Gerrard is as good as any player in the world, he makes very hard finishes look remarkably easy time and time again.
Andreas Dossena is a footballer, who knew?
Liverpool can win the champions league.
