Robben's shot to Pepe Reina's left, perhaps slowed by the decibel level, was snared by the Spanish keeper; moments later Reina went to his right to parry the effort by Geremi, putting Chelsea in a hole from which it would not escape. Dirk Kuyt sealed the victory for Liverpool on the fourth kick, an honor richly deserved given that the Dutchman had practically worn a path in the pitch with hit relentless running, either on attack or in harassing Chelsea's back line.

The two most important rules for a holder: first, get those laces...
...Dirk M. “Baba” Brinkman utters phrases like “punk ass”, “homie”, and “wassup” freely on stage. He name-checks Redman and Old Dirty Bastard. He wears his cap backwards and spits rhymes with fierce energy and unbridled theatrics. Naturally, Loker Professor of English W. James Simpson thinks he’s awesome.
