There can be no football without shots. Team Barcelona proved that point precisely when they failed in their campaign against Man U. The team that made it up for that loss of exciting showcase in the semi finals was Chelsea and Liverpool, when long range shots made their way through goalmouths in a 5 goal thriller that lasted too long that resulted in my semi-conscious state of mind, causing my inability to recognise that today was a public holiday and the public libraries were closed.

Meanwhile, there can be no greater joy to be surrounded by kids. Thanks to them, I now have these cute little stickers on my phone.
