March to France!

Another soccer update!

Arsenal drew with Villarreal last night to qualify for The Champions League Finals! Arsenal secured an aggregate 1-0 win, courtesy of Kolo Toure in the 1st leg of the 2-legged semi-finals!

What was stressful was Villarreal almost scored an injury time penalty which Jens Lehman did well to make a save and hence will be traveling to State De France in France for the finals!! Anyway, it was not a penalty as Jose Mari simply fell to the ground after a light touch and the referee was tricked to believing so!

Thanks goodness that Lehman did his homework on Juan Pablo Riquelme possible penalty kick and correctly predicted where he will shoot and save it. Due to this marvelous save, he has became an Arsenal Legend!

Now on to the Finals and hoping Arsenal will bring back the trophy back to Highbury!
