A goal is a goal no matter how it crosses the line, they all count for 1.

Today at 10:30 on Fox Soccer Channel: Brighton at Liverpool in the FA Cup
I'll be watching for Mendoza in the crowd...

I did not necessarily think that one of the "own goals" was an own goal. If you read the definition of any own goal per FIFA, if the ball is directed toward the net and deflected, it is not an own goal. Gerard's "goal," albiet at a hard angle, was directed toward the net. Therefore, it was not an own goal.
I am not sure why the English have such a hard time understanding this. I think they are still upset that they were not one of the founding nations that created FIFA.

Pretty sure that second own goal was a pass to Suarez until Bridcutt sent it home.

Updated on their board, sent them a recap of the 4/7 event.
They're doing great this year. Promoted and then a viable play-off team? Nice!
