LIVERPOOL VERSES OLYMPIQUE MARSEILLE.

The champion league match between Liverpool verses Olympique Marseille, was a very exciting match. As both teams were swift in their passes and both went forward again and agan, with a clear intention to score goals, and not to defend and make the game a boring one.And Liverpool were very keen to get all three points and get into the knockout group.
The deadlock was finaly broken in the 23rd minute by the Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, who headed a Xavi Alonso cross into the net. This goal completly changed the mood of the two teams. Olympique Marseille went into top gear ,with a keen desire to score the equalizer but one thing Marseille lacked were the finishing touch to sore a goal , the attempts were week and the Liverpool keeper Jose Pepe Reina had no difficulty insaving these week shots. Ryan Babel header also went wide at the end as we all know that one goal is never ever safe.And many goals are scored in the injury time.The game ended 1-0 in Liverpools favour.But now Marseille are now going to face U.E.F.A charges for bad discipline by their own fans as a cigrette lighter was thrown at Steven Gerrard, after he scored the clean goal.
