And that's that.
*Sigh*
First things first:
greenpixiehair, congrats. :). I'll never agree anyone should see Ozil cry, but Barca was by far the better team today, and y'all deserved the win. Messi was good, and bb Bojan played well for the bit he was in, from what I saw :). Oh, and Puyol was quite classy after the match, so props to your skipper.
( Alrighty then. Warning: I do emo a bit, and am dramatic. )

Oh, and speaking of hugs...
I am very proud of Ronaldo, Pepe, and Marcelo, generally, I just wish it had all worked better. :P. And Mourinho's post-match interview made me so proud. I'm sure we'll come back swinging next Saturday :) - and you are definitely right about us still being new as a team. Heck, so many of the players haven't been there more than a year or two, and of today's players, Ozil, Khedira, Carvalho, and Di Maria are all brand new. I think, once we snap back from this and get back on track, we'll be stronger and, hopefully, on the road towards being a more cohesive team.
Personally, I can *understand* Sergio's anger - tbh, I think it was more at himself than anything - and I don't think it's the worst thing in the UNIVERSE! as my comms seemed to think, but it was still unsportsmanlike. I'm not horribly upset at him, but I wish he'd held out until he'd reached the privacy of the RM dressing room. :|.
And Puyol - I saw it in Spanish, but I lost the link - when asked about Sergio, said that what happens on the pitch should stay on the pitch. That, coupled w/ how he acted during the Figo/pig's head debacle...well, I'm not going to go buy his jersey, but he's an okay dude :).

JFC XAVI YOU GLORIOUS MAD-EYED HOBBIT-GOD JUST GIVE BAMBI HIS DAMN HUG. NO ONE CAN RESIST IT'S OK JUST DO IT.
Mourinho has always said the team is a work in progress, and he's upfront about that so maybe this will, in some way, help force people together? Fire-forged on pitch alliances, etc? And like you said, there are some RM players who can really walk away proud of themselves from this game, even if they don't feel it right now.
Ohhh Sergio. The thing is I am very fond of him, I think he's a hot tempered sweetheart, so when he fouled MY BABY (I am irrational and hysterical when it comes to some players, sorry), pushed Puyol to the ground and slapped Xavi, I was kind of incredulous in a "WHY YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME ANGRY AT YOU ;_;" kinda way. But to my own surprise all I felt was mildly disappointed. I'm sure they'll all work it out, no hate. Although I have a tiny bit of hate for Carvalho after this game which no doubt I will get over eventually
I want to see how they portray all this in crackovia. Especially since the same actor plays Puyol and Sergio.
