Reds Marched Into Last 16 at San Siro

Inter Milan 0 Liverpool 1
Torres 68
(Aggregate 0-3)




The 3 persons above. Fernando Torres, Steven Gerrard and Rafa Benitez. This 3 men has been the Liverpool's heart and soul and yes, it proved to be as Liverpool marched into the last 16 of the Champions League. Beating the Italians current leaders, Inter Milan with a aggregate of 3-0, it's definitely a moment to remember.

Captain Steven Gerrard was influential in the match, leading the team into a disciplined and well-tactic win at the San Siro. Rafa was definitely the tactician, has once again, showed the world that Liverpool is a force in Europe. Fernando Torres, the one who scored the winning goal, I have nothing more to say about him. Simply BRILLANT.



Inter Milan had several chances in the game, Pepe Reina was alert to make two great saves. Even so, I just felt that Liverpool would be able to get through during the game. Liverpool was hard to beat, tactically, Inter Milan couldn't penetrate much into the Jamie Carragher's defence.

I knew we would score. I knew we would get a away goal and it's game over for the home side. Who else? Fernando Torres. What a beauty!









Let's look on how he celebrates!







This goal totally silenced the crowd and I could hear the Red half were singing out loud. Inter Milan fans clapped us off at the end, accepting the defeat. I felt that it was really gracious of them to do so.



Let's look forward to the draw and concentrate on the league for now. Let's enjoy the win!

You'll Never Walk Alone..
