Champions League Semis + Final

Champions League Semis + Final

No sign of any coverage of Barcelona v Inter Milan on ESPN tomorrow morning. f**ks me off big time.

No wonder since the game is on Wednesday morning.

Eugh! My bad.

Apologies about the other two duplicate threads. Computer is having a bad afternoon.

It might well be the Fever misbehaving hamspter, rather than your machine.

Volcanic ash forces Barca to travel by coach

Oh to be on that bus.

ZING. IBTL.

geez 3-1 now

3-1 it finishes. very nice lead to to take to the camp nou

Inter got very lucky there. Ref had a shocker. Never let the game flow, was inconsistent in regards to fouls against either side and most importantly missed a stonewall Barca penalty late on, not to mention one of his assistants missing the clear offside on Inter's third goal.

Hopefully Barca murder them in the 2nd leg.

Inter played well. At times out-Barced Barca, especially with pressure high up the field which enabled them to attack from good positions in the attacking third before the defensive line was properly set - third goal in particular came from such a situation.

Not convinced that the third goal was offside - they showed a couple of inconclusive replays as far as I'm concerned, so if you can't tell for sure from those, it's fair enough to play on. But the ref was awful, didn't have control of the game at all - yellow cards to Puyol and Pique were mind boggling, not to mention booking Dani Alves when he got chopped down by Sneijder in the Inter box late on.

Should be a good return leg next week.el grapadura2010-04-21 09:26:26

im at work so could only see the odd text update

so alves didnt dive and it shoulda been a pen?

Stonewall.

bloody hell.

it really annoys me when clear penaltys are missed in crucial CL semis

So good seeing Alves get booked for diving!

Looks like Barca played their final against Arsenal.

Not a big fan of Alves and he had an awful game quite frankly, but the (non)penalty call was easily the worst miss the ref had in the game.

He didn't dive though. He was chopped.

Yeah I saw the game. But he got booked for diving. Which is what I was laughing at.

Lucio and company always manage to shut down that Messi character, when he plays Brazil they don't give him any space.

They'll turn it around at Nou Camp and absolutely embarrass their opposition like they did last time

There was nothing embarrassing about that.

Your dreaming

Nah. Inter wont even score, Barca will bag at least 3. Just wait

sh*t ribery gone. seemed a bit harsh, though maybe thats cos these days most people would just get a yellow for that

10 each now

yea well alot of people wouldnt see red for that. thats al

A lot of people are morons who think tackles like that make them "well hard".

Disgraceful tackle. Blatant red.

Yeah it's the sort of tackle that 'should' be a red so I have no problem with it being given. A red card shouldn't require the victim having their leg broken.

Both ties well poised I reckon, looking forward to the secong legs.

Istanbul 4th? Oh, and of course include el madri in there...

My top moment is Chelsea losing to Barca last season. I've never laughed or been entertained by a single football match so much in my life
