The Paper Champion Liverpool won but Chelsea Outperformed the European Champion only to Lose in a Penalty Shoot-out.



Unlike the expected bantering, Chelsea was almost the Mexican Ruiz that fell the much-touted champion Anthony Joshua but penalty shoot out and Offside call saved the Champion. Giroud got the first goal and substituted Firmino engineered a rough equaliser for Mane. The second for Liverpool came through the same ever-delivering Mane and Tammy Abraham got a penalty, stunningly converted by Jorginho. 2-2 in the extra time. Though they created many chances, hit bars again, had goals disallowed But Chelsea later lost in the penalty shoot out. 
Kante was missed during Man UTD, his intermittent solo drives and his wall-like shielding of centre backs was felt. Pulisic's dribble was unlike Hazard but better with his sharp eyes for assists and goals. Mount is a becoming unstoppable player...combative and with Oscar-like shot. Tammy Abraham is intelligent. Tomori is promising. Pedro though losing possession has a wildling runs that nobody can match--he chases dead balls to turn them to live threats. 
Mane is the soul of Liverpool business and Sallah needs a Mane to do that dogged work. Firmino a distracting duct making both to function optimally. Chamberlain is not back. 
SuperCup went to the Champion but the Underdog deserved it more. 
Till weekend.

My Visions are Shaping

In my formative years, I had a dream to be a doctor, a far cry from being a musician. This dream was shattered by circumstances, and situations beyond my younger might. Thus, a phase in musical career was borne.  It was a bumpy ride. It was filled with challenges and impediments that almost tainted my good personality. Unrelenting, I held steadfastly to my vision. The desire to succeed is far greater than the fear of failure. I strived against all the odds to be here today: a fulfilled and successful musician. It is indeed a satisfaction.  Whereas, I have, on many occasions been proclaimed a "Doctor" in the field of Music.  A feat made possible as a result of an enviable effort in the field. But yet, I am not carried away with such praises.  Education is said to be the best legacy. The same urge to succeed that has continually spurred me on in my music career, has again propelled me to pursue a career in academic.  Upon enrolment for a full-time course at the De...

Liverpool Laundered Chelsea 2-0

  Lampard's League of Assassins became the victim and were turned into whiff when they met King Klopp's Coven of Wizards. Mane mane-handled them, scoring a brace. Klopp's magic wand turned Timo Werner to Timo Waster. Havertz became Harvard without a degree. Kante could not count any goal. Kepa also was no keeper. Chelsea became ChelShit: as all turned messy.  The game actually started as if Chelsea would be in control for a longer time. Werner squandered two good chances, though his movements were always threatening.  But the real story unveiled after 40+ minutes into the game. Mane got Christensen to foul him. Red card for CB.  The game became only Liverpool's. Magic Mane later got the first goal and also the second which was gifted by Kepa unkempt pass. Jorginho kept jogging but not creating. Zouma tried his best and Tomori as sub was not timorous but the scoreline wasnt palatable.  Lampard has a lot to fix. But he has another league o...

True True Mark of a Champion: Both Liverpool and Manchester City Came from behind to Claim Maximum Points in their Matches

 Klopp called his boys mentality monsters and of course they are. Coming from behind three times in a week to secure victory was massive. Aston Villa got the first goal and they intended to sit on it. They pushed and held forth till like 80 minutes into the game when Robertson equalised and Mane got the most dramatic winner at the tick-tock of the last minute. They are the king of comebacks. No one does it better than Klopp guys. #AVLLIV On #MCISOU James Ward Prowse tucked a rebound from Stuart Armstrong strike to put Sothampton ahead. City heaved and puffed before they could get an equaliser. Until Kyle Walker secured a goal and later assisted Aguero for the winner. Kyle Walker, the savior. Guardiola would love to be ahead but Klopp this time would not be willing to relinquish such lead. It unfolds we follow sha! --toonday
