2011 CL Final: FC Barcelona - Manchester United FC 3-1 - Champions!

[Alissa]

What a way to win a UCL final. It was a perfect game, the first 10 minutes scared the crap out of me but once we took control over the game we were unstoppable. No words for Messi, this guy is from another planet, it really is unfair to the other players. He said he'd talk on the 28th and he did. So happy to see MVP score, so so happy. Barca showed the world tonight that when it comes to football class and magic nobody can touch them, there's a big difference between them and the rest of the top teams, nobody in their right mind can deny that after tonigh'ts game. To make a long story short: it was perfect. Thank you Barca. Thank you.

La Masia provided the assists.
MVP delivered the goals, BIG TIME.

 

[El Mesías]

i cried when they pass the armband to abidal for him to left the trophy

 

[Amir1983]

By the way, does anybody know what half time talk Pep gave to the players?
They went out to the field longer than Man Utd players, then Barça performed blazingly in the second half.

I originally came on here to say this....

I have the upmost and thorough respect for this Barca team and they are worthy of their accocolades. I can't put in words what it feels like to lose two consecutive finals... prior to 2009 I didn't know the feeling of it, and I've followed United since I was 5 years old, going to the Stretford End. Tonight made me worry about Sir Alex more than anything... tears were nearly shed when they did a close up of him and his fists were shaking, he's been the manager of this club longer than I've lived and it's a credit to him how far we came this season when no one gave us a chance in hell. We'll come back eventually, I'm sure of that, but what I will say is....Lionel Messi is head above any player I've seen before and in terms of humility and respect he shits all over Maradonna. Props to Barca




Edit: And Guardiola too....upmost respect for him. A man of class, similar to Bobby Robson. No cancerous venom like Mourinho

 

[Barcafire]

Yeh, I agree. Thanks Man U for playing real football. Not trying to break our players' ankles, stepping on our players while the ref aren't looking, plowing into Messi to injure him... Though I don't condone play acting, I think Real Madrid shouldn't complain when we're just playing down to their level. They got what they deserved. Pique said they played with fire, and they got burn. Xavi said we just want to play football, which Real Madrid didn't want to do.

Man U played football today. Bless them. Even if we had lost, I would of been happy that it was to Man U.

Life is fantastic. I look at this as a treble.

 

[woobie]

Props for that, Lint. Much appreciated. The visiting United folks (and the regulars who are United fans) have with very rare exception been class acts. Thank you.

I Tonight made me worry about Sir Alex more than anything... tears were nearly shed when they did a close up of him and his fists were shaking,

I have to admit that I also was close to crying when I saw that, simply because I have a great amount of respect for this man, what a legend he is.

It was great seeing Messi with Robson, what a sweet moment that was.

 

[Barcafire]

Great comment Lint.

Agri, nice perspective of our treble

This is incredible, we were talking during the game at the pub who will lift the trophy, will it be Xavi or Puyol? Abidal moment says so much about the team spirit and we're all glad he passed such a hard moment. Who thought after Arsenal that he will be back in style, in London?
