    Biggest match?

    What is the biggest soccer match that you have attended? I suppose I'll add a guideline or two so that we stay on the right track.

    The importance is determined by the highest level the match was played at, ie. Champions League Final would take preference over Semi final even if that particular semi was more important to you. We'll do two categories ie. international and club. I'll start with my modest feat...

    International: Italy v Ireland (WCQ2010)

    Club: Derby County v Man Utd (PL07/08)

    -sad I know!!!

    Back when Jayo banged that one in!!! Was right behind the goals for it! Best moment ever!


    Edit: Oh the most important was probably the Champions league final 2007 in Athens between Liverpool and AC Milan.(Yes the one we lost)

    International - probably Ireland 1-0 Holland, assuming it's more important than the other Ireland qualifiers.

    Club - probably Espanyol v Villarreal (something like 4th v 8th in La Liga) ahead of Atalanta v Fiorentina (8th v 5th in Serie A), assuming both take precedence ahead of Shels v Depor.

    UCD - v Derry (League Cup Final)
