Saab vist väga piinlik olema... Millal me viimati üldse suutsime veerandfinaalis voita?
EDIT: ühe asja ikka unustasin mainida millest siin pole räägitud. Kaotati pendlast 1:0 Ühendatud Araabia Emiraatidele. Mängiti jah X koosseisuga(pohimeestest olid väljakul vist ainult Ireland ja Zaba), aga kamoon...
Liverpooli mäng tuleb päris karm. Molemal meeskonnal on hädasti voitu vaja, et jätkata teed esimese nelja hulka ja molema jaoks oleks kaotus väga väga valus. Arvan, et palju valusam siiski scouseritele.
