I knew they would get even, but didn't think they would have enough time to edge QPR. Unreal finish.

Best finish I may have ever seen in any sport. For those that don't follow or know/understand soccer will not be able to comprehend 2 goals in Stoppage time.

With about 10 minutes left I said "If they get 1, they will get 2". It just always seems to happen like that

what a story, both teams celebrate that has to be unique

It happened before, f.e. German bundesliga 2001:
Schalke 04 had just won their home game 5:3, when Serjej Barbarez scored the go-ahead goal for HSV in Hamburg vs Bayern Munich in the 89th minute. Schalke already started celebrating the championship (because Schalke & Bayern would have finished with 62pts apiece, but Schalke owned a better goal difference, so they would have won that tie-breaker) because they were misinformed and thought the game in Hamburg already was over with Bayern losing 0-1. Then the game in Hamburg was put on the big screen and Bayern was awarded a free kick inside Hamburgs penalty area in the 93rd minute...and what do you know, they scored the equalizer to take away the title from Schalke:

Im pretty sure he meant both teams in the game celebrate as QPR was celebrating not being relegated

Although you could be right and he was referring to how man U was celebrating just minutes earlier. I am second guessing myself. Either way, crazy!

I was rooting for QPR just because I like seeing upsets. Usually I am bummed when they end up blowing the lead, but this time did not mind as they had absolutely 0 on the line and it was such a great finish. When teams choke like that in the ncaa tournament it kills me.
