Yes, difficult to say and the decision could have gone either way but it'd have been a brave referee to disallow the goal. In any case, it's all done and dusted and no point in debating it - just like Gigg's penalty/goal in the FA cup final.
I think the CL final was pretty much typical of most recent cups finals. Most entertainment comes in the earlier rounds before both teams are too nervous, and less likely to be decimated by injuries. I see the papers were mostly going on about Benitez's team selection and transfers which is a bit unfair because given what resources he has, he hasn't done badly to deliver cups to a Liverpool that is still living on past successes.
