Gunners
It is 4 am here in India and the whole place is asleep except for me. Some 40 minutes back, I watched gunners pinning down Real Madrid with their high precision armory. We were about 300 people watching Arsenal vs Real Madrid in IIT's Lecture Theater. The atmosphere was wonderful. I am a perpetual Gunner fan. Gunners did live upto their standard. They looked far more composed in both these fixtures against Spanish Giants than ever before. They looked like a complete unit, playing better than Real Madrid in all the departments of the game. This has been an inspiration for me. Arsenal is now the only british team surviving in Champions's League. Chelsea went crashing out yesterday and liverpool succumbed to the tenacity of the portugese side Benfica. So, Arsenal goes on. I always dreamed of a clash between Arsenal and Real Madrid: the 2 most flamboyant footballing sides in Europe. And this was a treat indeed. Even though no goal was scored today, we all were rivetted to our seats. The commentators said "This feels like a Champion's League Final" and it really felt that way.
The atmosphere and standard of the European games is awesome. I would see these matches all my life. And this will have no bearing to how Arsenal perform in these games.

Its weird that all of us need things to fall back on and be inspired from some times. Its even more weird that those times come at the same time for most of us....
