Barca is playing alright, sometimes very bad. The one touch combination between Messi and Iniesta led to a nice one touch goal by Messi, though

[PAINKILLƎR]

Hov, Queen B and Beckham at the Barca game

damn though can't believe I didn't get invited

[SajN]

Who cares about Jay-Z, Beyonce and Beckham when you have Messi and Iniesta on the field

[Guess_Who]

Oh look Jay-Z, Beyonce and Beckham watching the game.

I can't care less about Messi and Iniesta now.

[PAINKILLƎR]

yo chill

3-1.........................................

[Guess_Who]

I'm not even watching the game, but I know when there is a goal, by the screams of my bf and the neighbours.

[SajN]

Ney scored. 3-2

We can still do this Barca!!! Sub me in!!

Roma outplayed City for the most part... Unfortunately Maicon, Gervinho & Pjanic missed some very good chances to score.
It was a good result anyway.
The way City players kicked Totti all over the place right from the start was disgusting... I'm glad they didn't get him injured & I'm happy he scored such a beautiful goal.
Grazie Grande Capitano!

RM with a win because of the ref

The ref did brutally fuck up a few times but it's Ludogorets fault for not capitalizing from Real's shitty performance. Naturally they were too intimidated & played ''organized chaos'' for big periods of time during both halves.
I still give 'em a lotta credits anyway 'cuz their gave their all & most of it 'cuz they are a team coming from a small town & were promoted to the Bulgarian Major league for the first time just 5 years ago... not to mention they play their home games 350km away from their town 'cuz their stadium doesn't match UEFA's standards for CL games.

On another note Arsenal vs. Galatasaray was a very entertaining game.

Messi to face tax evasion trial

Barcelona and Argentina star Lionel Messi is to face court trial for alleged tax evasion, a Spanish judge has ruled.

The judge rejected a prosecution recommendation to drop the charges on the grounds the player's father was responsible for his finances.

Messi and his father Jorge are accused of defrauding the authorities of more than 4m euros (£3.1m; $5m).

The pair, who deny wrongdoing, have five days to appeal against the ruling.

It is alleged that they withheld the money between 2007 and 2009.

The income related to Messi's image rights, including contracts with Banco Sabadell, Danone, Adidas, Pepsi-Cola, Proctor and Gamble, and the Kuwait Food Company.

The judge ruled: "In this type of crime, it is not necessary for someone to have complete knowledge of all the accounting and business operations nor the exact quantity, rather it is sufficient to be aware of the designs to commit fraud and consent to them."

Spanish version

interesting information, thanks

I came to post that new too. The judge believes that he was aware of the fraud.

I don't want to go into another debate about this, but are always the richest people doing this stuff. If I pay my taxes , he pays too....

I don't like inequalities, living in Barcelona you see how some of the players do what the hell they want. Piqué drives the way he wants, his car is often illegally parked, exceeds the speed limit all time, and he doesn't get traffic fines because he is famous, I parked the car bad 5 min the other day, and I had to pay 90 € and go pick the car in traffic. And I'm waiting for the fine now.
