Women in tears in the away end as soon as Liverpool grabbed their second. Full grown men in replica shirts and red & white stripe scarves covering their faces with their hands when they only needed a goal to reach the semi-final and there was still 15 minutes left on the clock.
A great great sporting moment.

Walcott's run was special
Its about time Walcott did something worthy of being selected in an England squad.
Walcot's run was awesome. Never a pen IMHO but I'd want it if it was us.
you sound like a plastic mate ;0)
"I can understand why clubs come away from Anfield choking on their own vomit and biting their tongues knowing they have been done by the referee ."
gotta love Fergie - loads of penalties are given against United at OT - Scousers hate him, you have to love him for that.
I'd like to see United win in Europe and the league as well.
Neither club mean anything to me, i have no alterior motive, simply watching the game as a pure football fan. I was captivated for the whole game, thrilling stuff, and played by BOTH teams at a pace we could only dream of. It was football at its finest, and if i'm completely exaggerating, then the beer wasn't watered down :-)
I take my hat off to Liverpool. They don't have as good a team as Man U, Chelsea and Liverpool, yet they seem to play this competition to perfection. What stands out for me was earlier in the season, they were majorly falling behind the other three, there was boardroom unrest etc, yet there fans to a man stood by Benitez, very publicly as well.
Well that loyalty paid off, because they deserved that win tonight.
Well said. Of all the top teams it is Liverpool I like the most and for that reason.
yeah admittedly we hardly ever got anything from playing these great sides but i know what games i'll be talking about in twenty years time and it wont be the 4-1 win against blackpool or 1-0 win against stoke , it'll be the 4-2 victory at highbury, 3-3 v man united etc doubles over chelsea and liverpool
and i'll take the regular 4-0 thrashings any day against world class teams over the complete and utter dross that we have lost to this year
some might prefer a shit team winning all the time in a shit league, personally i'd prefer a half decent team struggling at the highest level
Man U would put out their second or third string.
Football can be cruel sometimes.
Ars*nal were exceptional first 25 minutes last night. Their 1-2 touch football is a delight to watch...
You may have heard me screaming "hack him down" as Walcott crossed the half-way line on that mazy run of his.
Funny Mr Wenger saw the penalty incident.
Couldnt happen to a nicer club.
Just hope Liverpool turn over Chelsea next so we get a Man Utd v Liverpool final which would be fantastic...
seconded!!
never a penalty. typical jammy scouse. hate 'em....
touche my friend touche
Glory hunting gooners crying, Wenger moaning (no change), painful pen ho ho ho ho ho.
and this "English" team wins NOTHING again.
NICE
I wasnt too bothered who won, until that plastic scouser behind us got really annoying...
really enjoyed watching last nights match.
reminiscing over our victories over both arsenal and liverpool. still in 4-5 years time we can look back and remember the days we didn't turn up at blackpool, scunny etc and the thrilling home defeats to colchester, qpr and the like.
