Liverpool Lift 2006 Community Shield

Liverpool lift the 2006 Community Shield yesterday by beating the 'special' Chelsea 2-1. Riise opened the scoring in the 8th minute before Shevchenko levelled it just before the half-time. However, Crouch headed home a late winner as the Reds claimed their 1st silverware of the season.

In the early 90's, if you ask me, "Will you support Liverpool?" The answer would be strictly, "Never!!" Hahaha.. I just hated Liverpool which had players like Rush, Barnes, Daglish etc. I don't why, maybe coz Liverpool was MU's main opponent. Tu cerita lama..now, I'm still MU's fan. But I don't hate the Reds anymore. And yesterday, I supported Liverpool! And they won!

FYI, especially the Chelsea's fans, I do like Chelsea. Since the arrival of Gullit, Vialli, Zola, Hughes, Hasselbaink, etc., Chelsea was my no. 2 EPL team (behind MU, of course!). And then, the special Jose arrived. His ego & arrogant style sedikit demi sedikit mengurangkan my interest in Chelsea. Yes, even Sir Alex is sometime arrogant but Jose just a bit over the edge.. Will Chelsea win the EPL this season? Possibly they will. But I hope Liverpool, Arsenal & MU can give them a hard time.
