In The Begining There Was Light (Stadium Of)













The day has finally arrived!! The beginning of the BPL and our trip away to play Roy Keane's black cats at the Stadium of Light, will comment more on this after the game!

Well the first half was nothing to write home about and that's for sure! But in the second half it started to change with Alonso coming on for Frenchman Plessis (back injury) and with him altering the way the ball got passed around in midfield, resulting in a great pass that was picked up by Torres who worked his magic yet again and struck it into the bottom of the left hand side of the net from 25 yards out (83min)!! Alonso almost scored himself not long after that with a long range effort after he spotted their keeper (Gordon) of his line, but it went slightly wide!

On a down note Robbie Keane got in the way Torres earlier on in the match and blocked a possible goal but hey, its early days yet for this strike partnership!

So one-nil it was then and three points in the bag. Oh boy we so needed this win especially after Wednesdays extremely poor showing against Standard de Liege. Up next, Middlesbrough (Sat. 23 Aug. 15:00 BST) at Anfield!
Take it easy, other-side, LFCFL-SoS-IKB-FTY-RON!
