Match of the Century...

What a Match it was, Liverpool Vs Spain, a club Versus Country.

Spain took lead and soon a found itself in a two goal cushion. Torres pulled one back from an Aurelio cross.

Van Persie of Netherlands drew it level. Score was 2-2, Spain again went one ahead and Torres again leveled it for Liverpool to make it 3-3.

On the brink of half time, Spain again went ahead 3-4.

Liverpool struck back once the second half began and this time it’s the ever working Carlos Tevez who leveled things at 4-4.

Torres who was making darting runs for Liverpool from the right put an excellent cross to Fabio Aurelio who was responsible for the first two Liverpool goals with excellent crosses from his magical left foot. He bicycle kicked Liverpool to Lead for the first time in the Match 5-4.

Once ahead, Liverpool resorted to time waste tactics and attempted to play possession football though it was only 75 minutes. A defensive error allowed Spain to Level this time to make it 5-5.However an 85th minute goal made it 5-6 in favor of Spain.

The score remained 5-6 and Spain beat Liverpool at Anfield. The contrasting part though was all of Spain’s Goals were scored by only one striker, Fernando Torres.

And if you are still confused the said Match of the Century was played on my Play Station, Pro Evolution Soccer 2010.

I have Van Persie as the second striker and Carlos Tevez and Torres as my Center Forwards and they work quite awesome & I dint want to turn off the match as I normally do because if am trailing as the Artificial Intelligence earned and deserved its victory over its human counterpart albeit a mediocre one

Review Late but true.... 3 Idiots!

My first post so nervous moments & here I go.... Having read Five Point someone, I was always worried at the idea of making a film out of that book completely starring Aamir Khan, given the youthful nature of the lead characters in the original plot. But after I saw the movie which was made with considerable amendments to the original plot and just keeping the main story intact, I was more than relieved with the thoughtful and refreshing changes that were made to the original plot. No this is not any attempt to indirectly support the VVC production house and query Chaitan Bhagat’s claims but it’s just a personal observation. But most of the good things to say about the movie unfortunately end here. Aamir Khan is of late playing roles where he is everything you want a lead role to be, confident, clear in thought, beyond materialistic pursuits of money and fame, always willing to forgive, forget and share his widespread knowledge & enlightening the lesser mortals; being spontaneo

A SOS on COC - Commodization of Cricket!

From early 2ks, ESS (EspnStar or then Star Sports) has been trying to advertise the game of cricket by glorifying the rivalry of any upcoming series.  Just that they chose to go the cinematic way of doing it than the accepted way of promoting a sporting event giving a brief history of its rivalry. Starting from LG ‘All the best, LG ki Duva’ to the 99 India Team that went to the World cup, to early 2ks, And the hope against hope, come on India, dikhado, India ko Jitado, when all we had was Sachin and ten duds to fill the 11 in those days. Badlaa (Australia V Pak) a revenge for Pak’s loss to Australia in WC-99 final. Barood (India v Aus) and Sarfarosh (Aus Pak India tri series), the campaign clearly did not yield the desired results.  Predictably, Aussies won the Badla and Barood Test series 6-0.They also won the tri series with the men in then light blue managing just one win from 8 games.  Much better was the world cup 2011, add where rope walkers from diffe

The God, Me & the Karmic Connection

Long post with back and forth screenplay & introspection & good luck if you read it through. A while ago, was on my way back home after taking care of some annual rituals. The road leading to the home was blocked by four back to back heavy vehicles and just in nick of time, I took a left turn so that the shorter cut can overtake the four heavy vehicles and the last Kilometre or so can be a smooth ride. A Wagon r also swiftly followed me and I had a fleeting pride of being a pioneer in adverse situations, I reached the end of the road in no time only to notice a ditch with varying measurements apparently dug in to stop the usage of the road. I promptly put aside my pioneer hat and donned the safety one, got down to gauge the width of the ditch and made a calculated assessment that the car would be safely negotiated if it's taken from the extreme right corner and tried the same, only to realize that the front left tyre was badly stuck in the Pit. When I
