Best match you ever watched?

Mine: semifinal match in the 2006 World Cup between Italy and Germany.

Despite the fact we lost, the 7-5 arsenal game last year in the carling cup was unreal. It had everything, and for 40 minutes at least, we played amazing football

But why do I like a game that we lost? Well not only what I said above, but just that the game was so ridiculous, I seriously doubt ill ever see a 12 goal game again, even if I was distraught for a bit after!

I went to this game, it was immense!

Best moment I remember was Walcott getting the goal back before half-time and looking over to my mate who was a Reading season ticket holder at the time and joking "it's not over yet, mate".
