UCL: Chelsea FC - FC Barcelona [P+R]

[Seán D]

The ref was beyond shocking. The Pique handball was as blatant a peno as you'll see. Drogba being taken down was another definate penalty. Eto'o in the last minute put his hands up over his head and was very lucky. Barcelona have been found out. They were very, very lucky.

I agree with other points except the first one.

If we are god of possession, doesn't mean you have to defend with all your players. Com'on, if Drogba stays in the center of field, or if you just clear the ball from your box and than run after it, and send 2-3 players in our field, that doesn't count as attacking team.

Just think what you did in Camp Nou. Don't refer just to this match. We draw this match. We wouldn't qualify if there wouldn't been the results of both matches.

When I was referring to statistics in the first match, everybody was saying, the result is the one that decides at the end, no matter if you defend or attack. Now I can use your words: "IT'S THE RESULT THAT SENDS US IN THE ROME!"

no doubt about that. The only thing that bothers me is referees' mistakes were decisive in both legs, but its football

 

[Dytza]

but buti to be fair, you didn't have lots of chances in a first leg as well. you had possition but drogba had a best chance on that match as well.

I'd count Eto'o one after doing some great stuff between Terry's leg a better chance.

 

[Dipanjan]

Then you are wrong matey. Sorry.

 

[kp41]

Why should I? This thread is for the 2nd leg, thats all where it counts, I don't give a toss about missed chances in the first leg. Barca didn't have penalty appeals turned down like we had. Oh great, now I'm being a bad loser all of a sudden. Can u please just shut up and bask in your team's glory.

I already gave Barca the complement they deserve, even if I'm still gutted about it.

relax mate, I know how you feel, I hope a day comes that referee's don't make any mistakes.

buti, calm down.

 

[Dipanjan]

Blatant response to a dignified reply from Zak. Buti, you have lost it. There was no penalty?

Anyways, Here's the thread for the Final.

 

[Aragorn]

Cheats?? No, ....it´s the CHAMPIONS luck and good for soccer

And Barça wins 11-10 players, for who claims about Barça never won Chelsea with their 11 players.

For who claims about cheats, Chelsea did the same on Camp Nou.

Lossers only claim, like Drogba..... (and im not talking about Chelsea fans, that most of them are really friendly, im talking about real madrid fans that cannot hang on Barça won them and won Chelsea too.....
Barça is in the final and it´s a fact.

Barça will wins league, spanish cup and i hope champions, cuz Manchester is a hard team.

This is why I don't understand defending in the first leg away from home.

 

[Seán D]

And you forgot, 24 minutes with one player less. You know why? Because the referee helped us.

Should have been longer than 24 minutes with Abidal's foul on Drogba.

 

[Dipanjan]

and btw my latest neg rep.

for being an ignorant, immature a**hole and c*nt

Thank You. I give a dam.

 

[Zakov]

This is why I don't understand defending in the first leg away from home.

So you expect us to go out at their backyard and play our normal game and attack just to be ripped apart to shreds like Bayern?
Barca ain't just any team, man.

They're the same team in both games. It's not like you play Barca in Catalonia and then Kidderminster Harriers in England.

 

[kp41]

Guys dont go mad, lots of arguments and fights, being runner-up is that important? everyone knows the champions of this year.

ManUtd

 

[kp41]

by the way, what drogba said in front of camera after the match, I missed that.

 

[ShearerM4]

Drogba is pretty much as much of a disgrace as the ref was tonight. What a pathetic man he is. Can't believe he still gets away with it.

 

[Zakov]

The Drog won't get away with it m8, but we all know the ref will.

 

[nano909]

drogba sucks barça best team

 

[Luis Ah-Hoy]

you all were saying, the result comes at the end. I DOUBLE REPEAT! FC BARCELONA is celebrating now. They will go in Rome, guys!

It's like that

 

[big al]

their maybe some doubtful calls in both legs yes, some horrible play in the first leg by chelsea, and was slighty the better team in the second leg.... but only truth here is that chelsea isnt in the final cause they were victims of their own speculation, they never really went for the game in this second leg, barca did.


VISCA BARCA!!!!

 

[nor-rbk]

Don't blame the referee guys, he's Norwegian, he doesn't know better. Anyone remember Terje Hauge from the 2006(?) final...




Damn, Norwegian refs sucks, they are aweful in the domestic league as well.
