We sent my nephew and my brother in law to Wemberly on our tickets and the rest of the family cheered on from my father’s house. Such great fun and drama for the children. A very entertaining match and the result has added merit considering the Russia situation. Football shouldn’t matter during a war but no one whether in Red or Blue wanted Abramovich to be lifting a trophy tonight.

For a 0-0 game over 120 mins, it was brilliant. 4 disallowed goals, some wonderful saves - and a goalkeeper brought on solely for the shootout being the one responsible for his team losing! What more can you ask for. 

I thought the ref stayed superbly irrelevant to the game, too. He just let them get on with it and only stepped in when genuinely necessary. Well played all round.
