Comment & analysis round-up Quote of the day: “Over the tournament, we’ve worked very hard to get to the final - there was not that much in it overall and we had a few chances ourselves. Zenit looked the more offensive team, but obviously at this stage I’m disappointed to have lost. We’ve had a terrific tournament. In the end, I can have no complaints. You don’t get the opportunity very often to get to European finals and, when you do, it’s very disappointing to lose.” - Walter Smith. Runner-up: “I told you that I believed ...

Reuters Soccer Blog goes to Moscow
This time last year I blogged from the Champions League final in Athens, mainly about the oddly circuitous routes taken by Liverpool fans just to get there. My plan was to do the same from Moscow, but so far fans are pretty thin on the ground. With hotel prices starting at about 800 euros a night, it seems the vast majority of fans are going to come in on the day and fly back ...
