Same old Ronaldo then

Whether or not there was contact the scenes of Barcelona players surrounding the referee to try and get Pepe sent off & Alves going off on a stretcher like his leg was broken only to run back on moments later was very distasteful viewing.

Best of luck to ny, they will need it. Ross by 6 points minimum.

I'm bemused to why a Connacht man would wish luck to NY?

A Rossie hater from Mayo. But at least he's being honest.

Ohh i see i thought Mayo only hated Galway?

God you're definitely a newbie. Did you not hear about their famous rivalry/love in? Very prevalent on this site over the years.

Newbie i am but a long time reader of this site, something about Ross men lining out for Mayo i believe?

I wonder is there anywhere online this game can be viewed?

What are your thoughts on the Emirates game at the weekend?

I think Arsenal will win & come 4pm Sunday fergie will have to squeak his bum.

According to Eamon Dunphy only Maradona or George Best would have scored that 2nd goal tonight.

he's probably right.

The real Ronaldo in his prime or Ronaldinho in his prime could have scored that goal

Would agree with that.

United are the first ever team to keep six away clean sheets in a single CL season, only one CL away defeat in 4 years & on the verge 3 finals in 4 years.. so i think United have already proved how good they are..obviously a CL trophy could be the cherry on top.

That's just meaningless tabloid tripe. Arsenal kept 5 clean sheets away from home in 2006 but that means nothing when your keeper is sent off after 10 mins in the final. All those stats mean fcuk all unless you win the thing. If Arsenal had gone through the 03/04 league season unbeaten but still didn't win the thing it meant sweet FA.

Not sure about the clean sheet thing myself, however if true that away record is pretty impressive & i think it shows for the first time in a few years we'll have the best two sides in Europe in the final.

Speaking of tabloid tripe, i read today Messi has never scored on English soil, All set up for him to score a hat-trick in the final i feel.

Mourinho's post match comments


"Mourinho said a conspiracy between Barcelona and UEFA must exist after the Catalan club came out with a favourable referee decision for the third straight semifinal.

"Every semifinal the same thing always happens. Why? I'll live my whole life with this question but I hope one day to get the answer," Mourinho said. "Why could Chelsea not get to the final two years ago? Last year to get to the final with Inter was a miracle. Why again in this game?"

Guardiola led Barcelona to the 2009 trophy after getting past Chelsea, which had an injury-time penalty claim for a handball waved away. Inter eliminated Barcelona last year despite playing for over an hour with 10 men.

"I don't understand. I don't know if it's publicity for (sponsor) UNICEF or (FIFA and UEFA head of referees committee Angel) Villar's influence in UEFA. They have the power and no one else has a chance."

You can't hide it. Inside (the Catalans) are laughing and enjoying this thinking we're going to (the final at) Wembley. But to win this way must leave a bad taste.

I've won two Champions Leagues and I won them both on the field and they were with two clubs. We won with work, effort, sweat, fight and with a lot of work. Josep Guardiola is a fantastic coach — I repeat he is a fantastic coach — but he won the Champions with the scandal at Stamford Bridge. And if he wins again then it will be affected by today."

Barca are the one team that will match Man United's work ethic and on a head to head probably only VDS and Vidic would get into their team. If Barca don't win 3 or 4 nil there is a fix on.

If a feeble Arsenal side can beat Barca i wouldn't rule out a United side with vast experience.

Not a hope in hell, only Barca can beat Barca. Barca's midfield v the work horses, no offence mate but it's like comparing a Group 1 winner in the Curragh to a National Hunt winner in Punchestown.

Only barca can beat barca what is that supposed  to mean?  i don't know nothing about horse racing however I'm sure comparing it to football is like chalk & cheese.

Has to be the end of Mourinho at R.Madrid after one year! he'll probably be the Man City manager next season.

Sending off was the turning point but Messi God won it on his own.
