what time the game starts at?

 

[G. Facchetti]

I think right now, but I'm not sure

what time the game starts at?

3 mins left

 

[Carson35]

cool...the game is on right now...

 

[Carson35]

who is actually watching?

 

[G. Facchetti]

I believe we took a Roma forward out of commission in our box. That said, no Penalty! Hooray!

 

[MANTA]

We are sucking so badly. We have players that shouldn't be on the field. Viera Just passed back to Vucinic to start a roma counter out of nothing. Stankovic headed a clearance back into the penalty area to give Roma a second chance from a corner.

Defense is insanely bad. Midfield is horrible. Bring on Pele and Jimenez for Cesar and Stankovic.

 

[G. Facchetti]

Ohh well! I won't miss Mancini! Cya!

 

[Carson35]

probably the players have no motivation to play...because they know mancini will be gone on monday...

 

[MANTA]

All 11 inter players in our own half now. This is a garbage formation.

Chivu gifted the ball to roma Twice in the same attack. Unbelievable bad play by everyone.

Suazo with a good run and fouled. Free kick in Chivu range.

 

[G. Facchetti]

Fact: Mancini stays, Inter has no chance at Scudetto next year

Fiction: Mancini can win a CL if he stays at Inter for another 340 years.

 

[G. Facchetti]

Tonetto- Underrated as ever

 

[MANTA]

We get our first shot on goal. Stankovic volleys a rebound straight at the keeper.

 

[MANTA]

Suazo gets hacked and ref says play on. Poor decision.

 

[MANTA]

Finally we seem to be moving the ball a little better now. Our defense gets a breather as we keep the ball in their half for a bit.

 

[Carson35]

wow...first shot on goal? that is unexpected...

 

[MANTA]

Wow. Ballotelli with a horrible pass and Maicon stopped running and started complaining. But young mario ran at the defense and won it back. But maicon's cross was horrible.

 

[Carson35]

come on, guys...win the trophy for mancini...

 

[Nacka]

Why hasn't anyone posted the lineups?

You lazy bastards... :groan:

Anyway here they are...
