Second half of the tie will be interesting.

It will be a good final whoever gets through now, Milan looked slightly better than PSV, certainly not 2-0 better though.

Actually, I thought PSV was the better team there, they deserved at least a draw...

Of course, if you forget to capitalise on the chances you get, it's your own fault if you lose...

Chelsea were unlucky in deciding to play Robben in the last half an hour rather that the first. As a side they faded out of the game just as Robben came on, if he'd had had the access to the ball as much as Chelsea did in the first half The Reds would have been in trouble.

I agree Locutus, PSV were worth a draw, but if you don't take your chances...........

By the next tie, Robben may be healthy enough to play a full 90 minutes. Liverpool may have their hands full with him.

I think a week is too little for Robben, especially in a game like this, the pace of the game was trully imense, it woudn't have been any good to field him from the start.

PSV should have done much better, a real shame and a wasted oppurtunity to kick those **** Italians out of the cup and play Liverpool in the final.

Well then he should be well enough to play 60, I'd think. Maybe Duff will be back next week, which should help Chelsea out. They were missing him during the match.

It wasn't that immense... it certainly wasn't anything special between two English teams.

Hopefully Duff and Robben can start next time. Robben can get another half hour or 45 mins against Bolton at the weekend.

Not a very interesting game. Both teams defended well. Bring on Anfield.

Yep, should be some great atmosphere, with any goal being the one that potentially sends a team to the Finals... probably to face Milan.

Good news for American soccer fans... we get the second leg of Chelsea-Liverpool this week on ESPN2 instead of Milan-PSV (they only show on European Championship match a week). The English matchup should be far more interesting, IMO.

Yeah, we need more like Beasley to be our ambassadors to the world instead of whiner Landon Donovan.

Btw, in a year or two (perhaps after WC '06) look for a guy named "Eddie Johnson" to be the next US player who has some success in Europe.

Well, it's not like Beasley is a key player, he usually starts on the bench. But yeah, it doesn't help, especially since fellow strikers Farfan and Robert may also be out of the running...

In the last 10 years Dutch teams won the CL once and were runners-up once (lost on penalties). Only Spain, Italy and Germany did better (and Germany only ever so slightly with one more runner-up). A Dutch team also won the UEFA Cup once in that time. Only 4 countries (aforementioned ones plus England) won more, but two of those only had one more runner-up.

Dutch teams aren't the strongest in the world but in number of prizes won they're 4th or 5th in Europe (depending on the time period)...
