Photos, and quotes, from the Champions League final last night

[redfiona99]

First, an interesting article about the love and hatred of Juventus found in Italy. And the conspiracy theories -http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,762-692128,00.html

Picture of Gennaro Gattuso AKA the dude that looks really like Rhyno. And fights like him too. He's the sort of player that the fans love, hard tackler, determined, 100% effort - http://www.eurosport.com/home/pages/V3/L0/S22/E5140/sport_Lng0_Spo22_Evt5140_Sto436171.shtml

"What can I say? It went terribly badly." Marcello Lippi, Juventus manager. He's blaming fate too. He said 'it was an ill-starred night for us.'

AC Milan fans in the stadium before the match http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/images/39093000/jpg/_39093436_milan300.jpg

I think they also win the award for loudest fans.

An absolutely brilliant photo, with the Milan players celebrating and a Juventus player on his knees in despair. Hate the reason for the photo, but I admire its style.

The penalty that broke my heart, again, a brilliant photo - http://sports.yahoo.com/sow/photo?slug=1054161555britain_uefa_soccer_clf158&prov=ap

Scarily like Rhyno is right!

If it can help convert you, I'm in favour of shallowness ;)

[redfiona99.livejournal.com]

Would I lie to you. :)

It is, isn't it. There's another one on the back of the Times sport section that's similar and really makes me wish I had the scanner up and running. It's Milan players in the background celebrating and one Juventus player looking completely blank in the middle.

Glad you liked. He does doesn't he.

*giggles* When footy is on tv I can pretty much always be converted by nice looking boys touching each other :D

That sounds like a good idea. Now all I need is to find a good picture of Rhyno. (hops off to wwe.com)
