Week 20 Champions Cup, Europa Cup, Copa Libertadores and Confederations Cup Finals

Kickoff at 1400 hours...

It's a big week this week for some of you, those lucky enough to reach the pinnacle of the game. Schalke and plymouth will contend the Champions Cup final in which Schalke boss Jamie has an abundance of experience, mostly all bad, but he will be very hopeful that his star studded side can overcome Ben's newly formed but hot to trot Plymouth team. We have some fascinating matchups in this game, with Schweinsteiger against Rooney, Gomez against Ferdinand but it may all come down to whether or not Glen Johnson and Ashley Cole can handle Cristiano Ronaldo. Plymouth will be without the injuured Rosicky but Schalke will be without keeper Neuer and he will be replaced by rookie young keeper Bernd Leno, so its a big game for that kid, lets hope he can handle it.

May the best team win...

The Europa Final will feature Watford and Nantes and that game may come down to how well the Wtaford defence can handle the on form Neymar, although Watford have decided not to play an anchorman to help thwart Neymar's playmaking so it'll be interesting to see what happens here.

Likewise, may the best team win...

The Copa Libertadores has a strange look about it this year although perennial contestants Boca Juniors have made it to the final Santos did not, instead we see Vasco Da Gama in the final under the control of reality manager Valdo, not sure how i ever lost to them in the semis but lets hope Rob's Inter can take revenge on the upstarts...

The Confederations Cup is a new Cup this year which will be contested between the New York Cosmos and Yokohama Flugels and should really be a walkover for Brandon's Cosmos team who are currently winning just about everything in the americas atm...

and the games have kicked off...

Just two minutes on the clock and Rob Mclean has a goal for us already in the Champions Cup final, Rob...

You mentioned Cristiano Ronaldo at the top of the show there and you werent wrong cos he has grabbed the first goal of this match, and such an important start for Schalke, a rasping shot that flew past cech in the Plymouth goal, and so after just 3 minutes its now

Schalke 1 Plymouth 0

Come on

That game is being played at the City of Manchester Stadium of course and is being played out in front of 120,000 fans. Man City no longer play there of course having moved back to a rejuvenated Maine Road earlier in the season.

And we have out first goal in the Europa Cup final so lets cross to Tony Lockwood who is watching that one for us...

Seven minutes gone here and Watford have paid the price of allowing Neymar too much space and the skilful brazilian has punished them for it with the first goal, so after 7 minutes its now

Watford 0 Nantes 1

here at the Allianz Arena in Munich in front of 120,000 fans.

and im hearing that we have to return to the Allianz Arena, Tony...

its now

Watford 1 Nantes 1

after 9 minutes after Mikel Arteta scored a lovely equaliser.

Cosmos have taken the lead on 10 minutes in their game.

That's jaimies quota of goals gone then lol!

and its a cracking game in Manchester so lets cross to Rob to get the latest...

you join me just in time to see Robinho sneak past half the Schalke defence to bury the ball past the rookie keeper to make the scoreline

Schalke 1 Plymouth 1

after 14 minutes and i think we're in for a classic game here.

This is gonna be a long 90 mins...

Ronaldo is cutting the Plymouth defence to shreds at will here and he gets through again and buries his shot past Cech to put Schalke back in front, and after 25 minutes its now

Schalke 2 Plymouth 1

hang on Plymouth surge forward from the restart and Wayne Rooney smashes home a shot on 26 minutes to make it

Schalke 2 Plymouth 2

and I cant help feeling a bit sorry for this young lad in goal.

I can't take it just keep the ball lads

so can Schalke score more than they concede today ?

and there's been another goal in the Europa Final, so over to Tony Lockwood...
