5 more Cup Finals to Go
I thought the game against Middlesbrough was the penultimate game, full of lovely goals, drama and 2 red cards.
I was wrong
This game at Cardiff has got fans from all over the world in a tizzy ; a world class goal from a world class player Reuben Neves, and a lot of fine quality saves from both keepers, John Ruddy and the Cardiff keeper.
In the final minutes, 2 penalties were awarded to Cardiff and one produced a stunning save by the best keeper in the Championsip (as per fans votes), John Ruddy and the second, a cracker which hit the crossbar and rebounded into the pitch like a pinball.
My man of the Match ; John Ruddy (Goalkeeper) ; Superb. Not a foot or hand wrong the whole evening.
Football, the wonderful game, it brings out these range of emotions from everyone watching it, let me count them :
a) Anger
b) Despair
c) Excitement
d) Joy
e) Sorrow
f) Frustration
g) Fury (sometimes)
h) Happiness
i) Satisfactiion
j) Anticipation
It surely has earned the tile " the Beautiful Game " from none other than Pele, and millions of men around the world share the vicarious experiences - even like me an armchair (OK plastic chair) pundit.
