If this match even goes 90 minutes I'll be surprised...the dirty Argentines vs the rough bhoys...get Sutton out of their now before they hack him out for the rest of the season, jesus this is getting ugly...17 fouls and 4 cards in 40 minutes? nutty. friendly...haha.

Well, that is a shame, Celtic are just as bad at the pulling down players/cheating
Who won the Treble? - No Excuses
Let me guess? Celtic brought over 150,000 fans to watch that game, did you know they took 3 million fans to Seville and were all good, no fighting, nothing...
Yea Right

There were lots of Celtic fans but the stadium was only about 1/3 full (guess) so at most I'd say there were 8-10K Celtic fans in Cleveland tonight.
A lot more were at the Man Utd. match though they were outnumbered by the Red Devil's fans in Seattle.

celtic vs boca = a thousand something fouls ;)
now you know for the next time a british/argentina team play.
boca should have won with all those chances when they stole the ball from the celtic defenders, but the players up front were new (never seen them before)
boca was better in the first half, celtic was better in the second and the capitalised on a mistake in midfield and scored on a counter attack.

Well, Celtic won the battle of intimidation early. And a good thing too because our defense looked very shaky for the first half-hour, Boca pressed hard in our end and I really thought it would be a reapeat of the Man U. game, with Boca up two goals inside a half hour.
But, once the Alpha Dogs had announced their authority Boca started to give some room and I thought -- between bouts of pushing and chopping each other down -- we showed some creativity and flair that was really lacking for all but the first 15 minutes of Wednesday's game. But our midfielders are still holding the ball too long on the counters and lacking good vision to make the play to the diagonal runs. Head's up lads!
Not a bad result, especially considering Boca kept most of their starting team on the field for the better part of 80 minutes while MO'N played something like eighteen players.

Decent crowd, could have been better. need to get more Americans involved, wonder how we do that, any suggestions ?
Still it was only 8,000 less that the Forces of darkness got at Castle Greyskull for the Evertn game this afternoon.
BTW Wolves_67 loved the
" Hoopsters 1 - pepsi People 0 " made me smile that.

Don't play in Cleveland. One of the most insular, good ole American sports lovin towns in the country.
