Barca sucks.
It's biased refereeing and a bit of bad luck on Mancunian side that made them suck more. :( Really sad, cause any other day they'd have made pancakes of the Barca kids.

have to agree that it was poor refereeing, Barca were lucky to get a yellow card in the first half.

Still that they won by 2-0 and no penalty was given, nor was anyone excluded (or whatever is the word). So it's not really lucky victory for them..
Afterall, Barca's def was "decimated" according to commentators. Yaya Toure not being a defender but midfielder, Abidal and some others either injured/excluded. Barca had sort of a weak defense. It was tough luck for Ronaldo, Rooney, Park and co. Valdes too great for MU then? :p

Well done Barca on the good game.
Would have liked to see Henry goal, but well, he just came back from injury..
I'm REALLY glad Barca made it. Stopped those arrogant we-win-all in their cups collecting. :P

And I thought that you really disliked Ronaldo. :P

I dislike him, but I do not deny his excellent skills.
Overall, the whole of Manchester beats the whole of Barca by a long shot.

Pity circumstances were not in their favour, as they were in Barca's.

Perhaps, but I'm glad to see the we-win-all fall for once.
It's damn boring to see everytime the same team winning over and over (MU). For once it got again interesting to see some change and that football was still something more than "pre-made" winners. :)

I more likely refer to the fact that Champions league semifinals/finals looks most of time like "England's magic square" competition lol. (I mean Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, MU) Too few other countries representated.

And finally, Barca got Henry, best french goaler of all times, so I'm not going to root for another team isn't it? :p

Exactly my thought.
Circumstances my ass... Barcelona had a very efficient and constructing passing game. Did you saw those periods with over 15-20 rapid passes when MU couldn`t even touch the ball?
C. Ronaldo was drunk.... he was running on the pitch like a drunken chicken. :lol:

It was beautiful to watch. barcelona were unlucky not to have scored more, Messii also showed why he is the best player in the world, Ronaldo comes no were near him for that and never has or will. Oh what a night!
I feel like listening to that lionel Richie song now, Dancing on the ceiling!

Still that Chelsea vs Liverpool 4-4 match, was the best of all Champ League this year, in my opinion! :)

Barcelona played some of the nicest football about and Messi's goal was beautiful!
and united didn't show up, simply out played and out classed, just like the liverpool game a few weeks back!
it just shows how united can't handle not being in control of the game :lol:
