all madrid did was try to nullify barca, i dont remember them making a decent chance in the game. i dont see how anyone can stop barca winning the trophy.
Barca just made my daY. Real didnt do anything, but the red card was not fair. Yellow was enough. But, playing at home with 80000 suppoerters and not trying - thats a good reason to hope Barca will win.,
Yeah this game was like a f@cking circus match. Flopping everywhere, Di maria and Alvez acted like a bunch of school children. Messi was brilliant though...
It didn't seem to work all that well before he was sent off either. Besides, less possession - more tackles - more cards. That's a consequence Mourinho should be able to see.
Yes, when teams made out of players with less individual talent like like Denmark play possession it is terrible to watch. And at times it's not that fun to watch Barcelona do it either, but they don't really pass around among defenders for five minutes. They pass to marked players to draw the opposing team toward them in order to create room for their midfielders.
Anyway, Barcelona definitely stood for the entertainment this time.
The better team showed tonight. Same old tactic by Mourinho - full defending for an hour and then try to get a lucky goal towards the end.
Real Madrid did not deserve to win at all. Barca played their hearts out in a hostile stadium and came out on top. Red card or not, they were the better team by quite a stretch.
Edit - The 1st goal is currently missing. Can you update it?
Or.....they could just jump up and land on their feet, then go down softly and try to claim a penalty like Cheaterito did against City. Or wait for a little touch and then do a swan-dive like Berbatov against Liverpool in January.
But yeah, whatever floats your boat. I not judging, I'm just saying, y'know.
btw what does it have to do with Barca the team of oscar winner? Stop being so blind, I admitted every teams have players who dived including United, but Barca are on a different level, Biscuit to pedrol and alves all trying to get players to send off, diving is one thing but tying to get players send off or getting the whole team to pressure the ref to send a players off that what you called a classless team oh do you know anything about the neck-warmer? that Barca new trend these days
would rather have watched another tot vs arsenal game tbh. at least they play exciting football. barca passing between their defenders is boring as hell to watch. and real Madrid were negative from start to finish. Then the diving... the prem may have their few dives but that was a joke.
messi showed the only class tonight, the rest were pathetic.
well Barca may win the final but I know who id rather watch week in week out.
"Barca may win the final but I know who id rather watch week in week out."
Oh come on. That kinda defeatist attitude is not the way to win the Champions League. It's like saying "Those grapes are sour" even before seeing the grapes.
wow the ignorance, you should watch barca more they play the best football i've ever seen. You should also know the biggest games tend to be boring because of the level, pressure and cation that teams tend to employ. You disappoint me as a fellow united fan......
Did you even watch the match?? Alves, Busquets and Pedro rolling around like fairies holding their faces, they are a fucking disgrace. Busquets is a cheat thats why he acted, you ever see him play before, always rolling around holding his face. People are used to people diving and your right it does happen but not to the extent that these idiots were doing it last night and in the other two previous matches in La Liga and the Copa Del Rey. As well, all teams play dirty in derby games, you know anything about football? Im not a United supporter, never have been never will be but I am hoping they dont let people like this get their hands on the Champions League trophy. Well done Messi and sorry, but Barcelona have lost my complete respect.
It'a disgrace.It's a FU**ING DISGRACE.Third year IN A ROW,Barca were favoured by the referee..How the heck was that a red card. Even though I hate Man Utd..I really hope they would kick their cheating ass in the final
Are you seriously gonna blame Real's loss on the ref? Real lost because they didn't want to win this game. So the ref gave a red card. It happens. Was there acting going on? Most definitely? Was it a harsh foul? Yes. The ref gave him a red card for his intention in the foul not because Barca's player acted after it. Pepe can only blame himself for a really stupid tackle. It might not warrant a straight red but he got that. I think the ref was just sick of the player acting like tools and Pepe got the brunt of it.
As I've said before. The way Real played reminded me of the way the german national team used to play. Have 11 players on defense and wait for a lucky goal or a lucky break. Having your team reduced to 10 men should have made Real attack Barca like crazy. Bottom line. Real fully deserved their loss. I can't remember the last time a semi final game was that boring.
LOL "Have 11 players on defense and wait for a lucky goal or a lucky break." you mean italy national team correct????
When your team goes down to 10 mean for 30 minutes, and your coach gets sent off as well, that does things to you psychologically. Both barca and real madrid have their divers. But Barca takes the bloody cake.
I must disagree with you Karim the studs were up very dangerous tackle deserved a red card Adebayor was also lucky when he attacked the face of Alves I think and Busquets I think he could also had a red card plus Real were poor the whole game and even if it finished goaless they would not keep out Barca at the nou camp
Messi's second goal was brilliant, breathtaking.
Forza Barca, Forza Messi, Forza GOD

Messis Goal class....
Red card for madrid again lol....
Ruined the game...
would of been 0-0 if pepe didnt get sent off.
Stupid tactic Mourinhio! Playing boring football at home! Barca definite the best team today (as United yesterday).
