best match of the season. Charlton 1 - 6 Leeds Everyone was playing to their best. always attacking, even when up by more than 2 goals. Charlton's goal was debatable though.... It was a clear dive for their penalty. Kewell got the first goal hitting home a squared ball from Smith Smith was brought down in the box after turning a defender.... Harte converted the Penalty Smith then set up Viduka for his powerful drive across the goal to the bottom of the far post. Charlton player dives.... they convert penalty. Halftime Smith skins 3 charlton players before teeing up Viduka to smash the ball into the far post with the outside of his right boot. Smith again brought down in the box after outfoxing a Charlton defender. Harte gives the ball for Viduka to get his hat-trick. he converts Kewell runs at goal and instead of squaring the ball to Viduka or (Smith i think) he curls the ball into the near post. good finish. Smith was my MOTM even though Viduka got a hat-trick. He was involved in 5 of the goals, even though he didn't score. Viduka, Kewell, Smith, Matteo in midfield, Mills, Harte, Duberry, Radabe, Robinson, Bakke, and Kelly were all playing amazing. Simon Johnson came on for his debut near the end as well. He looks like the real deal as well. He's one that is really going to help us next season i think. Charlton didn't play bad at all though.... we were just that good.
my thoughts after watching the first half on tape delay... leeds are crazily busting their balls and going after every single charlton player that has the ball. the first goal was sweet and then before the penalty kick and the second goal harte and viduka got in a an arguement over who was gonna take it and viduka wasn't too happy. viduka scores his goal on a half-volley and it bounced under kiely into the goal. it looked like radebe knicked parker in the mid-section and that's what drew the penalty. scott parker looks pretty good.
O.K., first I just about had a bowel movement when I saw the score. How the frick did we pull this off? Were we doing anything different? This is fantastic news.
Great result. I had to work this morning so I couldn't see the game on FSW. Anyone know if it will be on again?
Wow. I had a feeling we could do well in this game, but this is amazing. Playing Kewell back on the left wing, Smith and Viduka up front, and the return of Matteo all contributed to a Leeds side that looked like a unit. The only nitpicks would have to be Viduka and Harte arguing over who gets to take the penalty and Duberrys anger getting the best of him at the end of the match. Other than that, wow. With 37 points now, a clear 6 above the drop zone, perhaps 2 more wins will see Leeds comfortably clear of danger. This game will be rebroadcast on FSW Sunday April 6 at 11am and 8pm for those who missed it.
