Is Football Better Than The Movies?

What's best? Films or footy?

3. The scene in Yes Man where Jim Carrey is a bit hyper and says 'Red Bull' a lot VS. Liverpool coming from 3-0 down at half-time to win the 2005 Champion's League final on penalties.

The film: Jim Carrey says 'Red Bull' a lot, quickly.

The football: After a disastrous start, Liverpool haul themselves back into contention through force of will, propelled by inspiration from their captain - the immense Steven Gerrard.

After pulling the score back to 3-3, a career-best performance from goalkeeper Jerzy Dudek sees them go on to win the game and lift European football's most glittering prize for the fifth time.

The winner: Football. Liverpool's win, whatever your team allegiance, was a glorious vindication of the raw drama, unpredictability and theatrical splendour of football. The Yes Man clip is just a man talking quickly.
