Liverpool 0-1 Marseille (Valbuena)I stayed up all night into the wee hours just to watch us humiliate ourselves for 94 minutes only to go to bed with a heaaavy heart man it sucks when this kinda thing happens. It's really hard especially when it's the team you've spent most of your life supporting and believing in. The only nail-biting moments, when the real action begins for me begins at the 91" minute when Nando's goal got deflected and off some other players, and got deflected twice off the goal post, like that kinda old school pinball game. Deflections at the penalty box's always agonizing, especially when it's against your favor.We did really badly. I think we screwed up big time, even the Liverpool fans left the stands a minute or 2 before the final whistle. For EPL's most hardcore fans to actually leave the stands before the final whistle, that tells you a lot about our performance this morning. It's kinda odd for me to see Cisse and Zenden donning the blue and pastel blue stripes of Marseille. Cisse especially, since he didn't really leave Anfield on a good note, now that we lost the game it kinda leaves a bad feeling. Can't really explain it. Hmmm...Valbuena's goal was superb though, it's one of those goals which'd still find its way into the net even if you have 11 Pepe Reinas in front of it. The angle's impeccable man. The way the Martians stretched our defense WIDE OPEN in front of the penalty box's unbelievable. Never leave a wide angle in front of the penalty box. Frankly we played like the Liverpool of last season, it was disheartening, the hamsters aqueaking and fighting over the wheel at the background kinda made it worse. T_T"We lost heart this morning even Stevie looked mediocre. I didn't expect much out of the first half, since most of the action (for Liverpool) usually comes in the second half. Once Valbuena's goal came in, I kinda lost hope, but I stuck through the end just hoping for an equaliser. I'd even trade a PS3 for an equaliser man. But it never came. =,(This has gotta be our worst performance (not to mention this is our first loss this season) so far, I really hope this match's our worst game this season and the rest'll only get better. We had a good start and I guess all of us thought we could bank on it. Pray hard this doesn't dampen the team's morale and confidence, remembered how the Liverpool squad (when Owen's kinda went downhill) lost heart and confidence on the pitch it actually showed through their game play. Fans feel for them y'know? Damn I wanna fly to Anfield and shake them all up by the shoulders. C'mon Liver lads, we're all right behind you...You'll never walk alone~~~Keep believing Liver fans...=,)
