Shame he decided to not play for Canada.

Not like they weren't getting though to the next stage, unlike any other English team.

Della, u r the most stupid Della ever!...LOL

ur well racist della... how dare u say that -.-

Pathetic? I'm not so sure. Didn't watch the match, but the highlights indicate that Besiktas had a difficult time until that red card, which changed the match in their favour

@Markodon

You gotta be kidding. Higlights do not show anything. They first show Stoke's goal and then the penalty position. Then how come you say BJK had a difficult time?
On the contrary, the game were played in Stoke's side when Ismail lost the ball and BJK conceded the goal. Second half was really great and one could sense the goal was about to come.

you do realise that all 11 players from the spur match are resting at home do u?

Well, Besiktas didn't have two of their big names, namely, Quaresma and Simao, who are usually the names behind the goals Besiktas score. And as far as I remember Besiktas was the better team in the first game but that additional aerial resource of Stoke City had made the difference. The funny thing is that Dynamo Kiev, the best team in this group I suppose (who had eliminated Manchester City last year when they reached the quarter finals), couldn't go through at the end of the day.
