Actually that's not always the case. I mean there are games like last night, one team wins the stats. But IMHO neither keeper had much to do really, the shots that was good were goals. What is luck if not escaping a clear penalty in 1st leg and winning a very suspect penalty in the 2nd. Teams have luck, you cannot deny that and Liverpool had lot of it.

Arsenal were completely dominant in the 1st leg and first 30min of the 2nd. Liverpool got the result they wanted from the 1st. The 1-1 in 2nd leg was vital to Liverpool as the game became much closer and they dominated at spells, especially after their 2-1. Then Walcott makes that fantastic run only to be denied a crucial goal by a very suspect penalty. It should have been a freekick as Fabregas is the one pulling Babel (just outside the area) and Touré runs behind him harldly coming in contact. Overall Arsenal were worthy to go through in a tight 2-leg game, but Liverpool were the team to have most of the luck (and Arsenal have Senderos )...sometimes that is what is needed to win games. What's done is done I guess...well done to all that won last night, no games I wanted to get involved in.
