    Some strike from Vidal

    Some knock from Jordi Alba as well to find that Atletico player unmarked near the edge of the box

    What's to like?
    A bunch of horrible players and constant boring, needless passing

    Works for me. I will never want a team that has both Neymar and Suarez in it to win anything.

    The ref is a * but Atletico deserved it. I hope they go on and win it.

    Yeah it was a penalty but Iniesta should have been sent off for his handball a few minutes earlier. Swings and roundabouts...

    Gabi whos hand it hit must have thought it was a penalty too, if you notice when it hits it and the ref blows he puts his hands on his head like "aw no i've * us"

    Barca need to stop that walking the ball in to the net malarky. Only caught the last 15-20 min but they had a few wee half chances to get a shot away but just pass pass pass.

    True. How he never got a card and then the ref booked the Atletico player who'd been on 10 seconds for nothing is anyone's guess :smiley-laughing002:

    Europe's top official's though so who's to argue..

    Barca had no plan b, they couldn't break the Atletico back line, ended up resorting to cross balls into the area, pointless as they have no height to attack the ball.

    We were beating Barcalona that night before Neymar got Brown sent of ever since then I have hated him and his club.

    Not that i claim to have a better footballing brain than Iniesta but a few times he'd frustrate the * out of you, he got himself into great space just at the box and instead of letting rip he passes to the side, * shoot!

    It was a penalty but Barcelona failed because their plan B is converting Pique to a striker. Even now.

    The same tactics Lennon used against them still work, crowd the centre and defend for your life.

    I can't get this horrible niggling feeling out of my head that Man City are going to win it :31: :smiley-laughing002:

    I'm hoping Atletico win it though.

    Could be a mixture of complacency and fatigue.

    They're the best football team in the world and have been for years, with the best player to ever grace the game. Some of the football they play is mind blowing.

    He probably knows shooting isnt one of his strengths though, occasionally he scores a beauty but his shots are mostly dire with no power in them.
