Day 2 back home and already watched way more football then in 11 days in Malta. I was spoilt for choice today with 4 Champions League matches to choose from. Spoilt for choice but also not too excited about any of them. PSG-Anderlecht: no contest, PSG were going to stroll to a win. Man United-Benfica: boring, just boring. United would score a goal in each half and the Old Trafford crowd would be watching in bored silence. Celtic-Bayern Munich: the crowd would be loud, Celtic would huff and puff and get the fans excited about some won tackles, but in the end Bayern would win without doing too much. Sporting-Juventus: Juventus have a way of taking the fun out of any football match. This was the one I settled on, expecting the passionate home crowd to help their team spring an upset. It almost happened. But after Sporting scored first it still seemed like a pretty flat atmosphere.
Maybe I really do need to excitement of World Cup playoffs. Honduras-Australia: now that will be not to be missed match. Coming soon.
