Chelsea Vs. Manchester United!

Soccer isn't my forte, but everyone knew that the football championships were yesterday in Moscow, Russia. It said on the BBC's website that it is the first time two teams from the UK have competed against each other in the finals. So since it was Chelsea, which is a borough of London, vs Manchester United, which...is in Manchester, we decided to go down to a pub in Chelsea and became Chelsea fans for the night. It was one of my best experiences in London by far. We arrived 2 hours before the game and most people were drunk or just singing their Chelsea cheer songs badly, which made them sound drunk haha. Everyone had a few drinks and watched the game in this VERY crowded pub. Manchester United scored first, but before the half, Chelsea was able to score and tied it up. No one else would score in the game or in extra time(overtime for americans) so it went to penalty kicks. Each team missed one so it went to sudden death kicks. MU made theirs and then Chelsea missed so Chelsea lost : (. The pub cleared out very silently and bottles began to be broken so we got out of there. It was SO fun and I've never seen anything like this in my life for just sports. Riots broke out really quickly and I saw the riot control come with their shields and stuff and we just got the hell to the tube and back home haha. Chelsea is a really rich and nice area of London and the stadium was sooooo beautiful. It was so fun. It was really great

If you can't understand them, they are saying "Lets go fucking mental, let's go fucking mental ahaaaaahaaaaahaaa" and repeating it. This video is a more mild chant of it. Usually beer is pour over evvvveryone and for some reason they were throwing celery everywhere.
