Best FA Cup Final

Today's showpiece final really was thrilling, high drama from start (or at least after a slow opening 20 minutes) to end, with for once the penalty shoot-out actually being quite anticlimactic after what had gone before. Truth be told, you have to feel sorry for the Hammers as they should really have won it, but that man Steven Gerrard really showed how good a player he is with two of the best goals you will see, both volleys, designs of power and technique. His first was a real classic, his second a goal you will struggle to ever see bettered. Congratulations to Liverpool, the sides they have had to put out edged them my support so I was chuffed for them. That and the fact they have a player called Pepe, clearly this was always going to go in their favour.
