Panathinaikos: We’ll Call This A ‘Do-Over’.
By: chris |
Roma 2 (4) – Panathinaikos 3 (6)
Stats:
7 Roma shots on goal
2 goals.
1 Doni save.
1 Roman blackout.
0 European games left.
Ah well, I think the Europa League has always served as a bit more of a distraction from the ‘title race’ murmurs of recent times, but they played like it was merely a distraction. So now it’s all Italy, all the time. First securing Champions League, and then…we’ll see.
Game
Mexes yellow for a poor performance.
Baptista foul for a kick in the face. Hey, if you aren’t going to win, send ‘em home tattered.
Into injury time.
Katsouranis off, which has been coming since his first yellow.
Cisse is the new Pippo, apparently.
87′ Back to proceedings, but it’s a bit of walking through and waiting for the whistle. Or Napoli.
A convenient Panathinaikos cramp as the Greek time–wasting subs commence. This game seems about buried now.
83′ Cassetti yellow.
Cassetti cleaned out, ball to Taddei, who whips in a lovely ball to three red shirts, all of whom miss.
82′ 3 goals in ten minutes and no Turks on the side. Cisse yellow.
80′ Menez adds to his highlight reel; can’t connect the cross.
This is looking awfully hindsight-ish and after-the-fact, but I never liked this lineup.
79′ Corner won off a free kick…another ball cleared from the goal mouth. You must be joking. Read the rest of this entry »
