Hola, como estas? BARCELONA BARCELONA

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL
...the chammpppiiiiooonsss (I know you're singing that opera voice right now, stop it).


This is kind of funny because I don't really fancy either teams. 
I won't be biased, I'll just tell you how it is. 
So Barcelona ends up being the champs eh? This was an interesting match because I feel like Barcelona and Manchester United are two teams that are extremely recognized in the world of soccer. Some may even say they're two of the best teams - I beg to differ(of course I would). Real Madrid fans everywhere were all for the red devils since Barca are their rivals; HOWEVER, what peaks my interest is how EPL fans stuck to their roots and supported their rival Man.United. Loyalty was a big factor for this match.


Pedro, Messi, and Villa, bam, bam and then bang! 3 goals by Barcelona who only let in one goal, that goal scorer being Rooney. Let me just say that Messi played the way he was anticipated to play, with conviction and drive. I'm never surprised when I see how clean and organized Barcelona games are, but I have to say the Red Devils didn't present much of a challenge. After the second goal, Ferguson was shaking in his boots (assuming he was wearing boots, maybe they were loafers). 


Its quite humorous that Alex Ferguson promised us the final of the decade, and boy was he right. Too bad he didn't know it wasn't going to be in his favour. Sorry, if you're wearing a red and yellow jersey right now hoping that I'm going to say something pleasant about Manchester United, please stop hoping. Watching this game was like watching a play unfold into its climax; Barcelona being the actors and United being mere props - Van Der Sar was like a couch.
