WATCHING it back. Watching it back. Overwhelmed and overwhelming. Ninety tough, tough minutes. Even knowing the end, the twists and turns take your breath away. What a game of football. What a joy to be alive. Manchester City and Liverpool duked it out at the Etihad...

WHAT a game. What a game of utterly mad, breathless, end to end, 100 mile an hour, toss of a coin, oh fuck it toss it again football that was. You often hear the phrase ‘that was a real advertisement for the Premier League’ getting lashed about all over the show and I...
