47th minute Henry gives off to Vieira, whose cross is bounced away. *** No changes for either club, and Basel finally get started 45 minutes late.
Re: Re: From the Fiver... I think he wants one of those gun carrying cows to shoot them if they don't win the group. Or something.
I'm out of here, meeting time. Last time I had to leave because of a meeting we pumped two past Dortmund. Looks like the mojo's working a little early today.
52nd min Henry leads the attack, but his ball for Wiltord is found wanting and his countryman can't run on to it.
54th minute An Auxerre move breaks down as Kapo is flagged for offside. Henry still off for treatment.
57th minute Radet's cross is dealt with by Sol Campbell's header. Campbell is hitting the form he had at the end of last season.
58th min Pennant on for Henry. Sounds like Wiltord will move forward. *** Valencia now up 6-1 on Basel.
60th minute Another change, as Edu replaces Toure. *** Madrid claws back to tie, and Lyon extend their lead.
Madrid ties things up 3-3. This weekend in the NFL had the most points scored in a single weekend. Looks like the CL is attempting to establish a similiar record.
62nd min Cole brings down Tainio, but Cygan clears the free kick after it bounces around in the box. Think of it this way. We have a striker playing wing to get him extra time. When one striker comes off, let's put a wing on in his place.
64th min Kanu's cross for Wiltord is headed right to Cool. *** You have to wonder when Guy Roux is going to go to his bench.
We face Sunderland (2W,2D,4L) on Sunday. Not to sound arrogant, but it's not as if we can't beat them w/o TH14. Our next match after that is Everton two weeks later (10/19). I'd rather he take the necessary time off to fully recuperate if need be. Those hammies can be hard to heal.
