..a show of passion, grit & commitment

i am in a very high spirit...just finished watching the game on tv, the 213th merseyside derby which ended with Liverpool winning 1 - 0. 

Again the hero is the much criticised (by knee jerked liverpool fans) Dirk Kuyt, scoring his fourth league goal in as many league games. However, credit goes to the whole team who fought hard despite playing with ten men after Kyrgiakos was red carded for a two-footed lunge at Marouane Fellaini in the 28th minutes. A few minutes earlier Steven Pienaar was shown the yellow in what should be a red card for a stud-up challenge on Macherano. However, Pienaar got what he deserved after he was shown the red card after a foul on Gerrard in injury time.

Besides the win, which moves us to 4th in the table, at least for a few hours pending results of the Spurs game, another very positive side of the game is that the team has shown a lot of passion, grit and commitment towards the game.....and Gerrard is back at his best.!
