FC Barcelona beat the shit out of Real Madrid. Fuck yeah.

I truely think Barça should win against Chelsea cause really they are a much better team. Chelsea is one of those assholish teams that are very irregular and manage to win or draw when truely they don't deserve it.

Shit..

already 1-0 to Chelsea

No, you're lieing. Please tell me you are. I can't watch it since it's not on normal TV but I'm gonna check on the internet.

EDIT: Shit it's 1-0. Gay!!! Well I read Barça have 70% possession so they have their chances. Please don't let Chelsea win, they don't deserve it!

[Slimm]

ohh my god.. this is horrible. FFS!

[SajN]

YES YES


what a torture till the end of the match..

We won


Damn, the referee sucks!!

[Slimm]

YES YES


what a torture till the end of the match..

We won


Damn, the referee sucks!!

Yes he does suck. If he didnt suck, chelsea would of got a penalty and won the match. This is bullshit.

[DrRapid]

YES YES


what a torture till the end of the match..

We won


Damn, the referee sucks!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I cannot believe it, I really can't. I'm out of words. What a fantastic end.

Barsa betta get ready against Man U if they could barely cope with Chelsea's defense.

[mcZu]

BARCELONA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DrRapid]

BARCELONA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man...I love Iniesta!

[matz]

haha that was brilliant, over half the people at the union bar went mental when barcelona scored.....

referee hada complete mare the whole game

chelsea were diving all over the place so when it actually was a penalty, it wasnt actually given, what goes around comes back around i guess

lol at drogba

[matz]

anelka seemed to get abidal sent off, and drogba just kept goin over at any touch forgetting that football is a contact sport.....i saw one obvious penalty, da handball one

another idiot

[Xray]

Chelsea barely had the ball, and whenever they did they were a threat. Barca on the other hand side had the ball the whole game, but that fucking idiot Alves fucked up so many crosses fucking dickhead. Lucky he isn't playing next match. But yeah all those were penalties except the Anelka one.

If Chelsea won, Manchester United would have hammered them lol so what point is that? giving it easy for Manchester United is fucked, can't let those bastards win it again. So Barcelona going through means its gonna be a hell of a match. GO BARCA!

[matz]

So Malouda being inside the box for the "free kick" one wasnt in your eyes?

End of the day Drogba said what anyone would of. If you dont think the ref was a disgrace in that game there is something wrong because i litterally lost count of the amount of people who sympathised and said the same on the way back(most not Chelsea fans before you claim biased). Anyway im off to bed....someone picked a fucking fantastic time to give me a morning job interview.

BTW i hope UEFA order the ref to give such shitty decisions against you in the final....maybe your see it clearer then .

lol haha no im not denyin the ref got close to every decision wrong, for barca and chelsea

i fink the malouda foul started outside the box so if the offence started outside the box, its a freekick outside the box

[Shads]

look, first of all, chelsea should of won that. they were cheated out of it.

but whether its because of players "history" they dont get these decisions is another story.

but....

1. chelsea should of had a penalty with the pique handball.

2. the ref was correct about the malouda incident. the first foul was commited outside the box... but ref played on as malouda carried on (hence advantage played) then when he was fouled again the ref blew, so in the rules of football, if no advantage is gained then it goes back to where original foul was commited.

3. Anelka was a prick for getting Abidal sent off. he tripped over himself. i feel as bad for abidal as i do for D.Fletcher.

4. Drogba was going down all the fucking time. i mean, him and C.Ronaldo need to fucking change sports and get into Syncronise Diving. unbelievable at them 2. and the funny thing was Drogba at one point actually rolled around the penalty box like a baby.

5. the eto'o handball im undecided. yes he raised his hands but you do that in order help jump higher (hence the argument of elbowing when jumping for a header) i argue this in alot of prem games so im not being biased here (looks at killa) the ball was struck hard and fast at a close-ish range. but in fairness eto'o had jumped and turned his back so he wasnt even looking (unlike Pique)

6. in the rules of football, yes drogba should of had a penalty for tuggin of his shirt when he went down. but again, this happens ALL the time in the prem league (and in the barca game didnt it with henry?) and hardly EVER gets blown for. and i think chelsea fans know this, but they were looking into more due to all the other decisions against them and were just building up a case for agurments.

7. Chelsea were pretty much ALL over barca. barca struggle against the english teams, cause they grind out tough performances, they can defend tough and they can counter attack. and barca just cant play like that, they need people open at the back to pass there way through. i mean Messi was dead quite, Eto'o heard nothing from him, Iniesta he was running midfield but thats it, getting NO WERE untill the 92nd minuet. Alves was wank, Y.Toure made a couple of tackles but didnt help the attack as much as the defence. But chelsea, drogba (when he was actually on his feet) was making runs getting back to tackle. malouda was up and down that left side like nobodies buisness, terry and alex were clearing all day long, anelka was going good, lampard and essien in midfield were breaking down and startng up play, overall a good team perfromance.

8. those two pricks Drogba & Ballack, no matter what happens in a game you dont go doing that too fucking refs. thats just bang out of order. at one point i thought we was gonna have another Palo Di Canio moment. yes its heat of the moment but come on, who have they been watching? W.Rooney...

9. in the end like Huddink said, yeah you can argue and complain about these decisions but there was a few times when the players should of scored in open play. Drogba chance stick out in my mind at the moment.

meh thats enough of a morning rant. in a nutshell, chelsea outplayed, outthought, outgrinded barca, but where cheated out of it by the ref, and faliure to finish them off themselves.

I'm sorry, but i feel they have every right to point their views out at the end of the game, i don't see what they id wrong, if they didn't hit anyone, it's all fair. And for anyone using the "footballers as role models" point, it's irrelevant in the match especially as it cost chelsea a trophy

[DrRapid]

Fuck it, Barça is in the finals, deal with it. I know there were quite a few unfair things but since when is football not fair. Football is for pussies, all you do is winge, players and fans, including me.

[Sleepy]

And for anyone using the "footballers as role models" point, it's irrelevant in the match especially as it cost chelsea a trophy

that point in general really annoys me
i can completely understand drogbas behaviour,ever played a real football match and been completely cheated by a ref,i have i was once caught offside 11 times during a match,3 of them legitimate,my team were denied 3 stonewall penaltys and failed to give a red card to an opposing player for a last man tackle,i was furious,we had a few choice words after the match,4 0r 5 of our players were booked for dissent during the match

ref was a disgrace,wasnt capable of refereeing a match that size
3 claims were pens imo


lmao@hiddink saying the refs performance "worst he has ever seen".he has obviously has forgotten all about the refs that helped his south korea to 4th place at the world cup

on the game itself,it was brilliant,both goals were amazing
ive heard people praising messi for his performances against chelsea,he didnt do a fucking tap in either leg

i have a sneaking feeling that utd are going to get cheated in the final and how platini got the presidents job is beyond me,hes a total cunt,wants to destroy english football and never shuts his fucking mouth

Bharti Airtel, Asia's leading integrated telecom services provider, today announced a five-year partnership with Manchester United.

This partnership will enable Airtel customers across India, Sri Lanka and the Seychelles will get exclusive access to rich and exclusive United content on their mobile phones.

In addition, Airtel users will get opportunities to participate in training sessions with Manchester United Soccer Schools coaches, to attend matches at Old Trafford and travel into Europe with United to UEFA Champions League games.

The announcement was made at Old Trafford by Sanjay Kapoor, Deputy CEO, Bharti Airtel in the presence of United's David Gill (CEO), Richard Arnold (Director of Commercial), Sir Alex Ferguson and players Darren Fletcher, Wayne Rooney and Carlos Tevez.

“We are very excited to partner with Manchester United, a powerful global brand with huge following across the world and in India,” said Sanjay Kapoor, Deputy CEO, Bharti Airtel.

“Football is definitely seeing a growing interest amongst the young population in India. Therefore, we are making a pioneering effort to bring to them rich football content on their mobiles, a fantastic opportunity to be part of the world’s leading football club through participation in Soccer Schools, and also an opportunity to watch matches across Europe.”

David Gill said: “Manchester United is delighted to announce the partnership with Bharti Airtel, India’s largest telecommunications company and one of Asia’s emerging global brands. This partnership demonstrates the enduring strength of the Club internationally.
