MA, out of curiosity.. Did you know Inter was a man down when you took them second half?
Yes I did, Mr.Kid. Trust me, I wasn't the only clown on the "+0.5 Inter - second half". Thought they would lock-it up defensively and play for the scoreless draw. This notion might seem unacceptable to many, but been around this game - in one form or another - for over 35 years, and won't hesitate to make that same play with any team as exceptional as Inter. Red cards are part of the game, and Inter fought valiantly for over an hour. Nonetheless, many are pointing fingers at Mancini. Should have taken, and accepted, the 1-0 nil loss. Come back home with a decent shot on the return leg. Instead you press forward, thinking you are in Serie A, where everything has been rosy.
A 2-0 nil loss on the first leg is a trip to the grave yard for the return leg.
LIVER will undoubtably play the infamous 4-5-1, and patiently frustrate Inter at midfield, because this is the only way to beat them. Now we will see what they are really made of, playing the return leg at home under the watchful eye of a non-italian referee, who couldn't care less how much the team is worth on paper.
Good luck to you.
