Glasgow Celtic will face A.S. Roma at the SkyDome on Jul. 31 as part of the Champions World Series. I'm probably gonna see the game...should be good.

I used to watch English games on ESPN. My favorite team is Real Madrid 'cause they're the only ones i've seen play.

I do urge anywone in the PA area to see Roma V Chelsea at Heinz Stadium in Pittsburgh.

they're all really good games.

I (fanatically) support Malmö FF.

Because they defeated Grasshoppers a trilion time? Well I'm Dutch and I totally hate AFC Ajax. My club is AC Milan (mainly because of the magnificent history with van Basten, Gullit and Rijkaard). But these days I like Schevchenko, Maldini and ofcourse Gattuso.

I can't believe a team with Beckham, Roberto Carlos, Figo, Gonzalez, Ronaldo and Zidane (Real Madrid) lost to Monaco of all teams..

Only stars doesn't make a team. And this is the proof.

Seeeriously. Real's out. A.C. Milan is out. I think its gonna be a Chelsea vs. Deportivo final in the Champions League.

Pfff, that was a kind of a defeat for ACM. Damnit. This Championsleague is the one of the lesser known clubs.

Good.

About time football returned to being about football and not simply money. Granted I know Chelsea are prime bank rolled material, but at least it is not one of the usual suspects who are going to get all the glory this time round.

Three of the four semi finalists have never even been in a final, so at least the so called experts have been proven wrong.

Chelsea had better not win it. OOOooooohhhh I'm so bitter!!!!!!!
I reckon Deportivo to win, but like you say, its good that it's much more open this year instead of the usual suspects.

Got my tickets for the game between Roma and Celtic the other day..Look like pretty good seats..The SkyDome should be packed for the match..any body else gonna see Champions World Series matches??

I cannot believe Milan got thrashed like that. That was a heavy defeat. What were they doing? They had a comfortable lead from the 1st leg, but they threw it all away in the 2nd leg. I honestly thought they were gonna win it again this year after both Arsenal and Real Madrid were eliminated. I would really hate it if Chelsea would win it because a team doesn't win a competition by spending over $100 million on players. That's ridiculous. I don't mind if the winners were Monaco or Deportivo because nobody expected them to make it this far. Porto have a good chance to win it too. They won the UEFA Cup last season, so it would be interesting to follow up with a better trophy. May the best team win.

there seems to be a lot of gooners on here! im an arsenal fan to, i share a season ticket with my uncle, who sits in the clock end. i was there for the liverpool game on friday, Henry is the MAN!

A shame for Real Madrid right now. Too bad for them. I've always had a sympathy for Deportivo La Coruña so much, and now they're just beating ass, like AC Milan and others. So, Viva Depo.

Something I could never understand:

Nothing personal against you people who support Real Madrid, Milan, and other teams that are from other cities/countries than you, but how do you do it?

How do you feel passion for a team representing other people, other places, other traditions than your own?

I support Malmö FF, because I'm from Malmö, and the team represents our town. We can walk proudly when they win. We, the fans, can feel we have participated in the victory, since our support gave the players inspiration when it comes to dedication and loyalty to the club. We love the club because we ARE the club.

Though I can accept that someone likes to watch for example Real Madrid. I certainly do that myself. They play entertaining football. But I do in no way support them.

So tell me, please, how can you feel for teams like Juventus, Milan, Real Madrid?

This is not critisism, it is mearly a question about something I don't understand. Maybe it's just that I don't define the word "support" the same way some of you do?

I call it gloryhunting, plain and simple.

Exactly true (although we call 'em glory supporters down here).

But I support a team from another country for a totally different sport - American football. And personally I don't think anyone should question my passion for the Pittsburgh Steelers. I'm a huge fan and have been for aquite a while, they are far from being a dominant team in the sport anymore though. Last time they got to the Superbowl was '95 or '96 in which the Cowboys beat them.

there are so many Manchester United fans, not just in London and the South, but across the world. A prime example of glory hunting.

I can`t believe Chelsea lost to Monaco. Chelsea needs to win 3-0 in the second leg to advance.

They only need to win 2-0 considering the away goal they had in Monaco.

Who cares about the tin pot European Cup!?

Dunfermline Athletic have reached the final of the Scottish Cup for the first time in my LIFETIME!!

and you are in Europe too. Congratulations

Yes indeed! Also for the first time in my lifetime.

As long as we do not end up being drawn against someone who plays in a war zone, I will be there for the away tie. Too rare to miss.

Good game today but I'm a bit pissed that Chelsea gave up a 2 - 0 lead and a trip to the finals. Guess Monaco was the better team. Its gonna be a Porto vs. Monaco final and I think Porto will win.

I'm glad Chelsea didn't make it to the final. I can't stand them. It's gonna be an interesting final. Nobody expected these 2 teams to make it this far. I hope Monaco beats Porto. Porto won this competition back in '87, so I hope this trophy doesn't end up with a past winner. Monaco has never won a major trophy like this one. So it would be nice to see a new winner this year. The last time that happened was back in '97 when Dortmund beat Juventus. Since then, every season the trophy was won by a past winner. Allez Monaco!!!

Also, and I may be slightly biased here, but I think they way Porto conduct themselves is deplorable. Constant diving and playacting.

They are a fantastic team, and with Deco have one of the greatest players in Europe, so I don't see the need for all the dramatics

I feel Morientes will settle it with a 2nd half header. Allez Monaco!

That's very true and I hate seeing it. Most football players are a bit theartrical but Porto take the piss.

Yeah quite biased too considering last years final
