It was a cruel result for Liverpool Football Club on Saturday. Liverpool would have been better sending out a second string team but Rafa Benitez had no choice and did the right thing by sending out his strongest team as all Liverpool supporters would have demanded.
But in reality Saturdays game was no more than a sideshow to Tuesdays main event. The Premiership is over for Liverpool Fc, we cant win it and we will probably finish in the top four, so now our only real chance of getting something out of this season is the Champions League.
The Barcelona tie is far from over, and i see Barcelona`s loss at the weekend to Seville more reasons to be wary of Barca. Liverpool will be coming up against `the wounded dog syndrome´. Whatever Liverpool`s problems are Barca`s are ten time`s worse.
Being knocked out of the Champions League by Liverpool does not figure in the expectations at the Catalan giants , and losing top spot in La Liga over the weekend puts further pressure on them, so eventually someone is going to get the backlash from the fallen giants of world football, i just hope its not us. But as always the twelfth man that is the Kop should help us along.
Tuesday has the potential to engrave itself in the Liverpool history books as one of the great European football nights at Anfield.
There could also be the added bonus if we get through this tie of a possible meet up with Man Utd later on in the comp.....and i think most Liverpool fans would gladly accept last Saturdays loss if it meant knocking them out of the Champions League.

I write a football based blog http://in-the-mixer.blogspot.com in which I write articles on a range of football related subjects. I was wondering whether you might consider glancing at my site and if you like my articles, maybe posting a link to me on your excellent blog. Of course, I’d be happy to return the favour! Although I try to write on all things football, I am 100% red! I try and add to my site whenever I have time between work commitments and am trying to get a few more people to glance at it. I really enjoy reading Liverpool FC OneFansView, so keep up the good work.
