11:45, I think. (Pacific)

It's 20:45 in Germany and 19:45 in England, I hope I got that right...:rolleyes:

Good luck, Stuttgart!

[Dead Fingers]

Should be in about 15 minutes.

20:45 (EST) = 1:45 (CST(US)) IIRC

so were getting our on spot in bigsoccer?!

Great Farnerud:rolleyes:

[Miran Klosnic]

FARNERUD!!! *LOL*
But the last 15 minutes of the first half were ok. Stuttgart should try to put some more pressure on Barca in the second half.

[Dagegen]

Shocking miss by Farnerud!

If you don't score on chances like that, you can't win. :mad:

Also Gomez should have scored until now.

The start of the game wasn't pretty but Stuttgart improved a lot and were, imo, the better and much more effective side(despite not scoring) in the last 20 minutes of the half.

[VfBOmaha]

well...it's been an absolutely exciting match so far

Barcelona have dominated possesion, but our boys haven't been without chances. I believe shots/chances have been about equal, but both keepers have been up to the challenge so far.

It's a bit scary whenever Barca has the ball around our area, but so far they've looked pretty non-threatening in the final third. We need a little luck in finishing and we could take a point or points from this match!

[Fußballgott]

Great Farnerud:rolleyes:

With our lack of mids we're lucky Farnerud plays as good as he does. Hilbert looks injured, no idea who could come in.

Barcelonas Defence seems to not like the VfB preasure
i say they have pardo fall back a bit more and let the rest
of the midfield press Barcelona maybe then we can win,,,

The dude looses to many balls and he shoots like a girl in this match. Put some power on it will you.. and the miss short before half time.. ugh. Not high thoughts on him regarding this match, the worse Stuttgart player out there for me in the 1st half.

[Klask]

Cacau worked his arse off in the 1st half. He's really working hard and running all the time. And props to both keepers for keeping their team in the match!

[Klask]

Really bad defense there and Barca takes the lead.. Veh doesn't look near as pissed as I would have expected after such a goal.

[The Old Lady Hertha]

Man Schafer and the defense looked bad in those goals.

It seems the race for 2nd might be between Ranger and Lyon with Stuttgart not even making the UEFA cup. Hope you guys pick it up and win a few!!!

Messi's hit the defender. I think Gomez screened Schaefer on the first one, but Schaefer should have had it.

[footyfan1]

Stuttgart has nothing to be ashamed of. They fought hard and had their chances. I think they were really just unlucky tonight.

Heads up guys!

The Rangers had a great start winning in Lyon. Stuttgart needs to win the home and away with Lyon, and then protect their home against Rangers. None of these teams is going to take many points against Barcelona!

Yup, Barcelona started the game with their usual attacking routine and dominated Stuttgart but instead of bunkering up they started to counter and push everytime Barca threatened. They created several good chances, especially Farnereud and Gomez who should have scored.

Unfortunately its make or break now, they need 4-6 points in their next two games if they want to have a chance of going through.
