Liverpool 2 - 0 Internazionale
Anfield, England
Anfield, England
I have no idea what Liverpool ate for breakfast, but they should make a point of eating it again before every match for the rest of the year. A team which lost to Barnsley last weekend managed to pull out a 2-0 win over an Inter Milan team that hasn't lost since SEPTEMBER. What gives? All I can say is that Liverpool is going to need to keep on getting results like this for Rafa to keep his job come May.
A couple notes: Gerard once again scores a blast from long distance. Kuyt makes it two games in a row with a goal. Crouch plays well and makes everyone wonder why he can't get more starts (Oh yea, Rafa's stupid rotation). Liverpool could have used Torres last weekend. Materazzi is a goon and can get a red card in every game for all I care. He sucks.

AS Roma 2 - 1 Real Madrid
Stadio Olimpico, Italy
Stadio Olimpico, Italy
Roma pulls out a win at home on goals from Mancini and Pizarro. Madrid did manage to earn a valuable away goal which may help their chances when they play next at the Bernabéu. Raul scored his 60th Champions League goal, an amazing milestone in European football. I would have liked to see Madrid win this one but it was not to be. Real seems to be on a bit of a skid as of late as the La Liga leaders also dropped a game last weekend to Real Betis.

Fenerbache 1 - 0 FC Porto
Veltins-Arena, Gelsenkirchen
Veltins-Arena, Gelsenkirchen
Fenerbache beat Port 1-0 at home in Gelsenkirchen. I saw the highlights and Porto missed a couple of sitters that could have gotten them a better result in the away leg of their match up. More games tomorrow....

I felt like Fabio Aurelio had a really good game, solid on defense and constantly getting involved in the attack. Has he been injured of late, or do we never see him bc of Rafa's whack rotation of players?
