Champions League Final

And again...Wow. That was an incredible game. And, okay, I'm disappointed about the final result, but not too much because, wow. What a game. That was amazing.
Half time score - Milan 3 Liverpool 0.
Final score 3-3.
Liverpool win on penalties.
And that's just the official statistics. Add to that the breath-taking end-to-end action in the extra time period, Milan's dominance of the first half, Liverpool's dominance of the second, the goals disallowed, the shots cleared off the line, the penalty shouts turned down...Wow.
From my point of view, the critical stats are as follows: Crespo scored twice. His first was a good goal. His second was a fantastic goal - a beautiful chip over the 'keeper after a long pass from midfield. He had a header cleared off the line. He put some excellent passes across for other players to waste. And in a pre-match interview, he spoke English.
At half time, my night was complete. So whose bright idea was it to have a second half, anyway?
And...how am I supposed to sleep now?
