NOBODY HERE AT TheScore.ie plays ice hockey, so it’s easy to point fingers.
But we’re pretty confident that even we would have managed to score the sitter which Craig Smith of the Nashville Predators missed last night.
I mean, Smith could have walked the puck over the line and into the Toronto Maple Leafs’ empty net and nobody would have batted an eyelid.
But instead, he decided to finish with a flourish and ended up with a miss that almost seems to defy the laws of physics.
The Preds went on to win 4-1 anyway, but something tells me his team-mates won’t be quick to let him forget this.
What a finish by the ox. World class
@Yorkie1892: world class?
@Hon Tipp: world class finish.
@Yorkie1892: ah ok

2 great goals from the Ox. Great to see him finding his form.

@Happy entertainment: youd swear it was downtown Lagos..
@Happy entertainment: I’d stay well clear of buying anywhere in Dublin with the prices haha.
Internazionale against Borussia Dortmund, a massive game, is on. But you’re covering Genk v Liverpool? Are we European or English?
@Philip Farrell: why even pose the question? The 42 is a business. This coverage will get more views and comments (including your one).
@Philip Farrell: Both red teams always get their own match blog here! Even the one that nobody admits to following any more!
@Philip Farrell: last time I checked both Liverpool and Genk were also European.
@The Bloody Nine: No Liverpool are a British football club in the north west of England.
@Philip Farrell: you do understand the basic economics of any business yes?? You know supply v demand and all that, same principles apply in this kinda of media outlet…regardless of what other games are on, Liverpool and UTD matches will always garner 50x more interest among Irish people. Also dont get the Europe reference, fairly certain Liverpool and Gent are in Europe. It is a European competition after all…
@Alan Brazil: and Genk is a football club located in the north-east of Belgium… both part of Europe.
@The Bloody Nine: Yes, you must be British and European and from Liverpool if you support them then.
@Alan Brazil: cold under that bridge tonight Al?
@Alan Brazil: you can be from anywhere and support whoever, Alan.
@Alan Brazil: and you are a lovely chap from a country in the north of Great Britain. :)
@Alan Brazil: and that’s not in Europe…I’ve seen it all now!!!!!!!!!!!
@Seaniecp: Yep, because Paddy is a Brit, not a European
Wow! Some goal in the RB Leipzig game!
Dont care much for Liverpool but what a goal by Chamberlin. That was ridiculous technique.
@Ottomaaan: Ridiculous? No need to be derisory about it. I think it was a fantastic finish myself- far from ridiculous. ( …as I slink off now, having aired my pedantic fury at the bizarre new-age approach with the social media generation of using “ridiculous” in a complimentary context. Along with “sick”, as also a popular alternative. I reckon we’re only one step away from someone saying “that goal was pure leukaemia” or some such nonsense…lol)
@David O Callaghan: thought you said you weren’t going to watch anymore soccer
@David O Callaghan: jesus David sit down and have a beer will you…
Who in VAR decides on the split second to press the button to decide on offside. It is a complete joke to see that Genk goal disallowed.
@Sheila Teehan: was it offside?
@Sheila Teehan: You’re right. All offside goals should be allowed.
Arbeitsseig as Jürgen put it..workman like performance..didn’t start like this…at least he focused in on the main problem and that was the sloppy loss of possession which was the only launch strategy Genk had. Whilst I like some of the clever touches by Firmino, Keita and Mane, it is by these transitions that will eventually undo Liverpool to more clinical sides. They are the most difficult to defend against…Klopp said it..we ALL know it. The conundrum Liverpool have is in trying to be more direct without overusing the ‘clever’ flicks. I was more impressed with Chelsea’s performance in Amsterdam…just being honest…
