We had a feed last time -- I'm hoping that we can get it again.

Here's the thread from the first game, with various links to feeds:

The best feed we had was here (http://site.arrentela.com.pt/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1), but it looks like they won't be having it.

First Page!!!

I think Benfica picked up Freddy only for CL matches. He's not going to play in their league-- not challenging enough for him.

I and some others were watching the RTPi feed through tvtuga or something. I posted the link in the last match thread because the feed was so outstanding. Is this the same as what you posted? If not, we may not be out of luck yet!

are they going to announce the starting 11 before game day?

[Reignking]

No, that was the RE RI link...

What position does Di Maria play? He's left-footed isn't he?

on the flanks

[FCmagic01]

Is there any chance he sees the field??

Freddy needs to get some time here if he is to continue his development.

Of course there is a chance.

And he played in the last CL game -- but that was with a different manager.

Freddy will start. surprises everyone, even CAMACHO the coach himself.

LOL

Well, if he is on the bench, it should be right there in front of him.....!!!:cool:

Okay, has anybody taken the trouble to make fun of the name Quim e Butt yet?

quim is one player, butt is another.
e means and.

Hans-Jörg Butt, german goalkeeper.

Sorry, left the "s" off of "names" in my original post. With apologies for taking the low road: "Quim" has another, slang, meaning and it being positioned next to Butt was a little funny, in an admittedly juvenile way.

[tab5g]

my early predictions for this game.

there is an 80% chance that Adu will not appear on the field.
there is a 10% chance he'll get some minutes in the game but not do much.
there is a 10% chance he'll score a goal (or have a nice assist) in this game.

overall, it should be an entertaining match as Benfica try to hold onto their 2-1 advantage from the first leg.
