IT AIN"T OVER YET ....

Well I would say I just reach home and it's 5.20am right now! I was back from Kayu Nasi Kandar because Liverpool was playing Arsenal. There was Ewen, Uncle George, Gayhwa, handsome seniors Adrian Lim and KC. I've received yet again feedbacks as if I'm some kind of football freak or some statements saying I posted too many things about football or Liverpool on my blog. However unfortunately its because Liverpool FC is so happening thats why theres so many news! LOL!
Liverpool are top of the league after drawing 4-4 with Arsenal in one of the most thrilling games of football ever witnessed at Anfield. A disappointing draw... but yet chin up & hold your head up high.. IT AIN'T OVER YET !!!
Six chances, no goals. All of which made what happened on 36 minutes even harder for the Kop to swallow. It was Javier Mascherano who was caught in possession on the edge of his own box, with Samir Nasri and Cesc Fabregas on hand to capitalise before feeding the onrushing Arshavin, who converted off the bar from close range.
If Liverpool felt hard done by to be behind at the break, they didn't linger on their disappointment. It took Torres just four minutes after the restart to level the scores after an inviting cross from Kuyt. The No.9 found a yard on the edge of the six-yard box and powered his header beyond the reach of Fabianski to record his 15th goal of the season. Seven minutes later the game had been turned on its head, and again the goal was the product of a Kuyt cross, this time towards Benayoun at the back post. The Israel captain ignored a high challenge from Sagna to send a diving header through the palms of Fabianski and over the line.
Twenty years after Arsenal clinched the title at Anfield, the Kop sniffed what could be a decisive victory in this year's race. But the drama was not yet complete. Liverpool probed for a third but, to the surprise of just about everyone inside Anfield, it was the visitors who struck next through Arshavin. The Russian pounced after Jamie Carragher's header failed to reach Arbeloa before sending a 20-yard curler past the diving Pepe Reina. Arsenal fans had barely finished celebrating when their January signing completed his hat-trick on 70 minutes after Aurelio failed to clear. The striker fired close to Reina but with enough power to ensure it reached the net.
It was just two minutes before a remarkable game took another twist as Torres prompted another Kop eruption. El Nino collected the ball on the edge of the box, bought a yard from Mikael Silvestre and slotted home via the hand of Fabianski.
Anyhow, it was once again a good and breathtaking match, The Reds played with passion and their never-give-up attitude really shows to everyone that we, Liverpool FC will battle till the final whistle! Even those that i'snt Liverpool fans like KC also said Liverpool is a team with good spirit and team work. We responded well after they score and tried to get back into the game with faith and believe we could do it. I know there will be a possibilty of some haters or Paul Yaos blogging about another 'over-confident' draw but as I know confidence is not something you can buy in the supermarket, confidence comes through your own self believe telling you that you can do it. I believe, I have faith, and I have confidence that the remaining matches of Barclays Premier League Liverpool FC will give their best! Good night / Good Morning!
