The only luck involved is that , for once everything we hit went in. For every goal, the players meant to do what they did. It was only " lucky "i in that it was the one perfect game where verything they knew they could do, they tieid, and it worked.
If it had been some Guffy team, the comentators would have been crowing about for 40 years.
Or if it was Barca, we`d all have been superwise and praised their " quality ".
Fact is, if you screw your eyes up, you could see that being Bayern Munich , at their peak. Playing like that .
You can call it luck if you want. But it denigrates a QUALITY performance.
Better thanthe Copenhagen result. That was lucky ,....because Jamie Smith was " lucky " to have those skills ?
