Commentator: Neville screamed when Torres defeated Barcelona. That should have been my masterpiece.

Football

In the fifth round of the Champions League, Chelsea defeated Barcelona 3-0 at home, adding another layer to the feud between the two teams. Among the previous collisions between Barcelona and Blues, the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals in the 11-12 season is undoubtedly one of the classics.

Chelsea won the first leg 1-0. Barcelona led 2-0 in the first half of the second round and the total score was reversed. Ramirez scored a half-time buzzer-beater and the Blues scored a valuable away goal. Barcelona's wild attack in the second half was fruitless. Messi also missed a penalty kick. Torres scored a single goal at the last moment to equalize the score. In the end, Chelsea defeated Barcelona 3-2.

Recently, senior British commentator Alan Parry said that when Torres scored the winning goal, it should have been the masterpiece of his commentary career, but it was messed up by his partner Gary Neville.

Parry said: "I have been doing this for more than 50 years. How great would it be if I could have an iconic commentary moment? Just like Walschtenholm said in the 1966 World Cup, 'They thought the game was over? No, now It’s just over!’ Same, that was the moment I dreamed of.

“I once had a close chance, it was Baggio scoring a goal in the 1990 World Cup. Every time he passed someone, I shouted, ‘Oh, great goal! ’ Then he scored the ball. But I don’t want to be remembered for ‘faking an orgasm’. I thought Torres' goal was my moment.

"But Gary Neville ruined my moment of fame. His screams sounded like someone was strangling him. Of course he understands football, there is no doubt about it. But I think he forgot that he still had a microphone in his hand. If he wanted to vent his emotions, at least take the microphone away. The sound was so weird.

"When I first partnered with Neville, I was joking with him. I said, 'Gary, I know you hate Liverpool people, and I hate Manchester people too. But we have to cooperate and shake hands. ’ He turned around and ruined my moment of fame. "

The 77-year-old Alan Parry has not officially announced his retirement. When asked if he was willing to pick up the microphone again, he smiled and said: "Maybe, as long as the partner is not Gary Neville. "
