Aaaahhh!!! Liverpool lost the Barclays Asia Trophy final to Portsmouth just now. They dominated the whole game... the WHOLE game... Had so many chances, but just couldn't take just ONE of
'em... Here's what I view some of the players, just based on that game, in the humid conditions of Hong Kong... SOME only.:
- mohamed SISSOKO - Had a great game... really a good game. Looks much more improved than the previous season. His usual brilliant tackling looks better, and his passing is much more comforting, comparing it to last season... Very lively and energetic, bursting forward runs, looks good for next season.
- jermaine PENNANT - Looked lively too. Good crosses, however some poor ones from corners. Dribbling techniques looked good too. And more to note he looked good on the left flank.
- yossi BENAYOUN - Nice trickeries, and was quite pacey on the right flank. Good techniques with regards to shooting and dribbling. Looks good, for now. Missed penalty.
- fernando TORRES - Was cheered so much when he came on. Had flashes of brilliance when he just came on, turning the Portsmouth defender before just missing the goal. Had another curling effort wide. Tried to play in his teammates twice. Unfortunately, missed the penalty too.
- the DEFENCE - I know this is not a player, but this department on the hold stood up well to the Portsmouth attacks, and still looks consistently good.
So... This is my breakdown on some of the players that played just now.
Haha... Sadly Benayoun and Torres missed their penalties, after Liverpool had a substantial 2-1 lead in the shootout, with Kuyt and Gerrard converting their penalties, just when Utaka missed Portsmouth's first...
Sian...
Finished Common Test of Term 3 today. Chinese paper was alright, finished it faster than expected, but
dunno whether do well
or not...
Yeah... And I passed A Maths, just though... 16/30... Expected it anyway...
