I think Liverpool deserved to lose in the game. Neither teams produced quality football during the 90 minutes. It was a boring game with low tempo.
Once I see Zenden is in the starting line-up, I felt that he has nothing to contribute to the team. It was proven as he did nothing in the game. I was thinking why Benitez did not select Abeloa as he has done very well in marking Messi during the quarter final. Furthermore, Gattuso will not be able to produce the same good running like Messi at the right position there. Then, Riise will be playing at the left side. Anyway, everything is no longer important as Liverpool has lost in the final.
What did Alonso during the match? Nothing other than conceded a free kick to AC Milan which they eventually scored from the spot kick. Aggger, what were you doing and how can you let a player runs in front of you?
Then, I was surprised again when Benitez took out Mascherano instead of the useless Alonso when he decided to push forward by sending Crouch into the game. I did in my previous post that the only advantage that Alonso has is his long range accurate passings. However, his passings during the game were really nothing more than a joke. Second goal from AC Milan was mainly due to Mascherano was not there to block the trough pass. I really do not what Alonso can do. He is really useless!!
In conclusion, both teams did not play well and Liverpool deserved to lose the game as they had 2 useless players in the team that night.
