wow, didn't know this game was starting early
figured it would, but could have sworn UEFA said it was a 8:45 kickoff like the rest of the CL
So how many Fabianski howlers will we see tonight?

Idiotic pen to Chelsea
The defender sticks his arms out and gets a handball. Very dumb! Arsenal nearly went 2-0, great clearance to save a goal!

Wild game at Elland Road
Preston scoes about two minutes in, then concedes the next four. 4-2 Leeds and its not halftime yet

Watford had a goal disallowed in the final minute of the game
so instead of coming from 3-0 down to draw 3-3, they lose 3-2 at home to Swansea City
