Heartbreak.

Well it happened. After 18 breathless matches in the 2008 Uefa Cup, my heart has been broken at the hands of F.C. Zenit St. Petersburg. This is more of an emotional post so I can get some things written, but I'll add my actual analysis a little later.

As much as I don't want to admit it, I feel that this was going to come to us at some point. Throughout this entire competition we had played backs to the wall, bending but never breaking and it was just a matter of time until some team found a way to exploit our lack of offense and break through a back line that has been so strong but still vulnerable.

I'm trying to collect my thoughts at this point and soon I'll come up with something that will resemble an analysis of those 90 minutes. Until then...
