4. Espanyol - Benfica (even though yesterday's game wasn't that brilliant and Moretto decided to give away a goal, the lousy git)

My bets.

My opinion, whoever wins between Seville vs Tottenham will win it all...

I'd take Sevilla over spurs. Spurs are poor away from home and I think sevilla can capitalise on that. Plus they travel fairly well, which gives them hope at the scum stadion

If Sevilla plays concentrated (unlike vs Shakhtar at home) it's very difficult to take a good result on their field. By the way, I think that the winner of this matchup will go to Hampden Park (great for UEFA Cup, such a legendary stadium): don't see Osasuna or Leverkusen strong enough.

I go with Espanyol in the tournament (they're still unbeaten, but they're in the strongest side of the bracket), specially after what happened in 1988 final...

Posted by K.I.K.E. on Apr-12-2007 20:50:

AZ Alkmaar - Werder Bremen (0-0)/(1-4)
Bayer Leverkusen - Osasuna (0-3)/(0-1)
Sevilla - Tottenham (2-1)/(2-2)
Espanyol - Benfica (3-2)/(0-0)

Now, semifinals:

Espanyol - Werder Bremen
Osasuna - Sevilla

- Espanyol is unbeaten in UEFA Cup, but I think that Werder is too much.
- If Sevilla plays at 100%, Osasuna is no rival in a 2-leg clash, even knowing the navarres' style, that causes problems to Sevilla.

a werder vs sevilla final sounds pretty damn good imo.

Yes would be great! I think Sevilla will make it for sure and if Bremen plays at their normal level they should have no problems.

But isn't it funny: There are 3 english teams in the CL-Semi-Finals and 3 spanish teams in the UC-Semi-Finals.

the 'big' bundesliga clubs don't seem to have done well this year. I was disappointed in Schalke, Dortmund & Hamburg

Posted by nettwerk on Apr-12-2007 23:10:

2 balls on the post, one goal missed less than a meter away from the goal line... and Benfica played like shite today. What a surprise.

Oh, yeah, and Espanyol shoud've been awarded a penalty. But let's not say that out loud.

lol hadnt seen the palop goal yet, nice

Poor Spurs.

Every year they have a good team that should go far, but always fall short. Mucho money spent. No silverware yet.

Semifinals, 1st leg

Osasuna 1-0 Sevilla
Espanyol 3-0 Werder Bremen

- Osasuna handled Sevilla. It's midfield ate Sevilla's one, a lot of pressure all around the field, efficient attack, and solid defense.

- The UEFA-unbeaten Espanyol simply erased Werder off the field. 3-0 and "thanks", Werder must say. Espanyol to take this year what was taken in 1988 final.

Semifinals, 2nd leg

Sevilla 2-0 Osasuna
Werder Bremen 1-2 Espanyol

The Final: the Champion (Sevilla) vs the Undefeated (Espanyol).

Espanyol!

meh.. i wanted Bremen-Sevilla

Posted by chesco on May-03-2007 23:45:

Likewise, thats the final i think everyone wanted to see.

Don't know what happened to bremen tho - i thought they were a sure thing for this cup.

Did they rest players for an important bundesliga game or something.

nope. but their most important players (Klose and Frings) are in negotiations with other clubs (bayern Munich, Juventus) and that destroyed all chemistry in the team.

Well, it was a great final after all.
Espanyol were almost there, but, PKs are PKs...

Palop made some good saves. Gorka should be praised too for his saves in the ET.

Now prepare yourself for the CL Final...

Posted by Ian on May-17-2007 08:13:

Espanyol put up a lot more than I expected. I felt right sorry for Tamudo having to come off too. Sevilla were probably the better side, although when they missed so many chances (great keeping from gorka) I really thought espanyol would win on pens or something.

here's to next season when hopefully my boys can get to the 1st knockout round again

Posted by Yohan on May-17-2007 11:25:

Looks like I missed a good game.

Highlights showed pretty good goals

Posted by nchs09 on May-17-2007 14:24:

sevilla is just a power house at the moment..... they seem to win every game.....

Posted by K.I.K.E. on May-17-2007 19:35:

Espanyol played with more heart the entire game, and controlled the game (and had the best chances) until Mois�s sent-off (1-1 atm). A pity for them (defeat in PKs, like in 1988).
