This is football


Well...we played well.

But it wasn't enough.

We lost the game in the last minute of added time.

Is the second game in 5 days we lose that way.

We lost the national championship title, probably, last Saturday, and yesterday we lost the final of the second most important European competition for clubs.

This is no good.

But this is football.

  1. Tough way to lose for SLB. Ana, do you believe in the 'curse'? This is an interesting story.

    1. That's quite the article! We not only have that curse but we got a new one: 'the last minute of extra time curse'. We lost both games in the last minute of extra time (90m+2m).
      This next Sunday we have the final for the Portuguese Cup and I truly hope the new curse doesn't strike again. I think that if we are even by the 90m I turn off the TV and do not watch the rest of the extra time.
      This is the last chance to get a title this season. Hope we win it.

      PS: I didn't know the NYTimes have written such an article. Thanks for the link!
