FOOTBALL: BLACKBURN ROVERS 0-3 NEWCASTLE UNITED

I watched the 2nd half of this match. Finally, Newcastle United won! I was on the phone with my girlfriend when I was almost finishing the call when Shearer took the freekick and scored with a low shot. From then on, the goals just keep on pouring in. I was excited to watch this match particularly because of Craig Bellamy. In my mind, this guy definitely wants to put many goals behind Newcastle's net to show Souness his frustration. However, it did not materialized.

Newcastle are playing with bad passing, alot of high balls kicked from defence over and over again, they just don't seem to be very convincing enough. There are no real danger they provide to the Blackburn's penalty box. Owen's first goal, Shearer's first of the season and N'Zogbia's second of the season gave Souness their first win of the season. I'm sure Souness is a relieved man.

Not so for Luxemburgo. Real Madrid should be biting their nails now. Although Barcelona lost and so is AC Milan, Real Madrid's defeat is the 3rd in a row. Bad luck or not, they are far from convincing with the current squad that they have. He better do something fast before being risked to be sacked.

Liverpool 0-0 Manchester United? Luckily I did not watch that match. I never like to watch matches without goals unless you are being entertained by alot of beautiful football. Still, Chelsea is still perfect and will be hard to catch. Inter Milan and Juventus both won their matches. Del Pierro must be relieved to be back to the starting line up and scoring! That will surely put the pressure off him as there are rumours of offloading him.

Now, we still have a match to watch. How is Arsenal going to prepare for this one?
