Watching Liverpool vs. Dortmund 2nd leg game tonight.
This was intense. Emotional roller-coaster.
Drama, despair, delight.
Not sure what the price of admission was at Anfield for tonight's game but tonight defined why football is referred to as the beautiful game.
I'm drained.
Combine this game with the 27th anniversary of Hillsborough, the atmosphere before,and during and after the game.
Dortmund fans were a class act from beginning to end, Anfield rocked.
The planets were aligned.

I echo everything you said: the impeccably observed minute silence, the fantastic atmosphere created by both sets of fans, the game itself, everything about it was just fantastic.
YNWA, indeed.

(1,260 posts)Without a doubt, an excellent match to watch as a neutral. I have such a fondness for Dortmund, but was so pleased for Liverpool. This has been a great week of European football.
