Here's
a match by match breakdown of UEFA Champions League Round 4
predictions:
Arsenal
(Eng) 1 - 1 Panathinaikos (Gre)
The Gunner's train HAS definitely derailed with the defeat by the
Devils a forenight ago. 
Coupled with their poor series of results in
their European campaign to-date. It's a wonder how they will
response at home? They must have thought they nearly won it when
the Greeks spurn the chance to equalise with the offered penalty.
But alas, Monsieur Cygan poped up yet again to sink his own team.
FULL PTS to RSP n mercutioz whereas the majority went 4 a home
result prediction.
PSV
Eindhoven (Hol) 1 - 0 Rosenborg (Nor)
The Norwegian league just ended not too long ago, whereas PSV is
currently the Dutch league leader if my memory serves me correctly.
Everything points to a home victory but by how much? extremex,
cHaOs n Baseline struck gold with maximum pts. xking n Entic
crashed n burned 4 predicting an upset. The rest all shared some of
the spoil.
Barcelona
(Spa) 2 - 1 AC Milan (Ita)
A tough one to call...AC being the only team outside of Spain to
humiliate Barca on their own turf in recent European competition
history. Yet nobody ever walk out of Nou Camp with maximum point,
let alone 1 point in European competition. Barca got their revenge
for the defeat at San Siro a forenight ago. xking, BeNo n cHaOs
emerged triumpant with maximum pts.
Celtic
(Sco) 1 - 0 Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukr)
Celtic has a strong home record in recent European campaigns, even
strong European teams have dropped points playing at Parkhead.
Critics might argued that this was achieved with a certain Mr
Larsson who has since moved on, but the fact still remains that
Celtic at Parkhead is a tough nut 2 beat. s|nNeD was the only guy
with FULL pts. Baseline been the odd one out w/o any pt by
predicting a draw.
Inter
Milan (Ita) 0 - 0 Valencia (Spa)
Inter, Inter, Inter....undefeated in the Serie A n Europe this
season so far. In Vieri n Adriano, they got 2 strikers with the
firepower 2 gun down any sides. So far these 2 have been bailing
out their team when the defence went 2 sleep. Spanish champion
Valencia on the hand is going through a mini-slump... W/o a win in
6 consecutive matches, they r in woeful 6th place in La Liga n got
thrashed at home by Inter. BrUtUs was the only one level-headed
enuff to believe in Spanish pride, for that he got 1 pt. All the
rest of us got carried away that a home win was inevitable.
Werder
Bremen (Ger) 5 - 1 Anderlecht (Bel)
Honestly, who followed German Bundesliga? I don't as a matter of
fact but Belgian football is much worse than German football and
that's common knowlege. s|nNeD n BrUtUs believed in Anderlect's
pride n paid the price. All the rest rather believe in the
firepower of Werder Bremen, the current German champion and wat a
display!!! 
CSKA
Moscow (Rus) 0 - 1 Chelsea (Eng)
A point is all Chelski needs to qualify for the knockout stage of
Champs League. BeNo must have read too much into the weather n how
it might affect Chelski since he predicted an upset. 
Everybody else got something out of this match with
Baseline reaping full reward. Congratz!!!
FC Porto
(Por) 0 - 0 Paris S.G. (Fra)
French n Portugese football are an unknown quality. We saw their
kind of football during World Cup n European competitions. Best of
all, we know their footballers better than their footballing
styles. Porto hit the headlines due to
a certain Monsieur Mourinho 4 the past 2 seasons. PSG has been
known to introduce footballers like Zidane n Ronaldinho to the
world. A 50-50 split among the predictors for going 4 a stalemate n
a home victory. Congrats to those who got a pt for such a dull
match.
Deportivo
(Spa) 0 - 1 Liverpool (Eng)
A dose of luck compliment of Jorge Andrades handed the Reds a
lifeline into the next round. Gratz 2 extremex n xking who got full
pts. Redz n BeNo both got 2 pts for sticking with the Reds getting
a result amidst their lack of strikers.
Olympiakos
(Gre) 1 - 0 Monaco
The Greek side done it again!!! Observers who followed Champions
League soccer will know of the near invincibility of Olympiakos at
home. No matter the odds, they always defy the convention n get a
result. Gratz 2 BeNo n mercutioz getting it correct.
AS Roma
(Ita) 1 - 1 Leverkusen (Ger)
A last min strike from Montella saves the blushes for Roma. They r
really pathetic at the moment, brilliant 1 moment, horrible the
next... Out for the running of the Scudetto n almost out of Champions
League... Perhaps by securing 3rd place n entering the UEFA Cup, they can kickstart their
miserable season so far. Gratz 2 s|nNeD n BeNo 4 getting full
marks.
Dynamo
Kyiv (Ukr) 2 - 2 Real Madrid (Spa)
Even mighty Chelsea only manage a goal away at cold Russia. Well
the Galacticos manage 2
score twice, but the difference is...their porous defence.
I wondered how long can Casillas take it when the
defenders in front of him r more interested in attacking than
defending? Gratz 2 xking n cHa0s getting
a pt each.
Bayern
Munich (Ger) 0 - 1 Juventus (Ita)
Juventus is showing the kind of imperious form that gets u
silverware. Next 2 Chelsea of England, they got 1 of the meanest
defence in Europe. If Mourinho boasts of his golden triangle, wat
abt the golden triangle of Buffon, Thuram n Canavaro who have been
playing together since their time at Parma? Gratz 2 extremex n
xking getting it rite. Also Redz n BeNo got 2 pts each.
Maccabi
T-Aviv (Isr) 2 - 1 Ajax Amsterd. (Hol)
A shocker of an upset! But that's wat u get when a team is playing 4 pride n
no pressure on them 2 perform. Everybody predicted a walkover by
Ajax, but we were all so WRONG.
Lyon (Fra)
4 - 1 Fenerbahce (Tur)
Well a similar fixture where the French Champion was expected 2
stamp all over Fenerbahce even with a striker of Piere Van
Hooijdonk's standing in the team. Well the margin of the victory
was least expected but everybody got 1 or 2 pts for their
predictions. Well done, guys!!!
Manchester
U. (Eng) 4 - 2 Sparta Prague (Cze)
Can Sparta do it again? A complete shutout at Old Trafford? "Not a
chance!!!" said Van the Man. His double brace KO Sparta even when
they score a brace.
Redz n BeNo missed out on the points, must b something against Man
U...
