1. OH MY GOD.

2. What an exciting match.

3. Once again, a CL winner couldn't defend the trophy.

4. Resting your entire squad before a big game can be a mistake.

5. Barcelona played beautiful football tonight. Every football fan should be impressed by their effort, it was an absolute joy to watch them ( Read more... )

Well, he is fit. XDDD

I KNOW! That's pretty hilarious, isn't it? XDD

I don't think you said anything that I'd disagree with, although I am not pleased that Barca won because the Spanish press is going to be absolutely unbearable this week for me.

But I'm happy that ManUtd lost LOL. And Ronaldo was totally outshined by Messi. Yay!

First and foremost, I'm a Madridista, so I agree with you of course. However, I can't deny that Barcelona have been playing beautiful football this season and probably deserved the CL title more than anyone else, and I also have a soft spot for some of their players, whereas ManUtd and their conceited attitude have annoyed me all the way through this season, so in my opinion, they deserved to be put in their place.

I've been fed up with the Mancs all over the tv today, every hour one the hour. And then the commentators are going on about Barça having no defence and that Evra will have Messi in his pocket....I was just hoping that Barça would play how they have in La Liga this year and they did = AWESOME.

Oh how it was good to see Old Whiskey Nose looking completely f*****d off and then at the end of it he complains that, that was Man Ure's 66th game of the season...WTF stop complaining old man !! He did compliment Barça though and so he should.

Gràcies Barça, I think I can forgive you for the Copa del Rey Final now ;)

Pep's done a unvelivably job this year and they are worthy of everything they have won, congratulations.

Me too! I just can't stand the whole Manc hype, and I'm still bitter they won the league. It would have been sort of a worst case scenario if they had won a triple this season and also been the first team to defend the CL title. Anyone but them, really. And Barcelona, on the other hand, have played beautiful football, which, in my opinion, deserved the reward.

Then it would have been HIS duty to set priorities, right? XD He's so ridiculous.

I think I can forgive you for the Copa del Rey Final now ;)
Me too, definitely. I told dfotw after the final that if Barça beat ManU in the final, I'd forgive them for kicking out poor Athletic. ;)

Oh no! *facepalm* I always do this!!!
I'm waiting for the game to be shown here, I got bored watching hours of commercials, came over to the comp only to find the game's already played in real time (I guess they decided to delay it here to annoy us) and I found out who won!!!!
*cries*
MY fault!!! I should know better than to go on the comp before a big game!
Oh well, I still want to see it! HAH! The pundits on my station were ALL for United and went on and on about the fact that Messi had NEVER SCORED A GOAL against an EPL team before!!!

HAH!!! In your face, pundits!!!

Damn.

Holy shit! I've just finished watching the first half. (Delayed here about an hour.)
I have to say that Barca is playing incredibly well. Every player seems so aware of every other player. They know each other so well and the passing is jaw-dropping. IMO, they are playing the way the Spain NT plays, and this is clearly no match for anyone else!
United look lost. Their game plan has gone out the window. Except for covering Messi, which they are doing quite well. It looks like Lio has said, "Fuck it," and is trying all sorts of different things, like tricky runs and dangerous back-passing and stuff that is very entertaining to watch.
Damn, I hate to say it as a Madrista, but they are playing one damn fine game! Way to go, Barca!
And here I thought United were going to win again! I wouldn't have hated that because I have nothing against them, but I don't really care that much about them either. I guess if C-R7 comes to Madrid next season, then I'll have to like him!!! LOL.

They know each other so well and the passing is jaw-dropping.
I thought the same!!! For major parts of the match I just sat there, gaping. Their one-touch football was brilliant, really. And on the other side, ManU's passes went nowhere. Ah, that felt so great. XD

I'm so glad Leo didn't give up when things didn't work out too well for him at the beginning.

I'm still bitter about Utd winning the Premier League, and I definitely didn't want them to be the first team to defend the CL title, so I'm glad they didn't win this. It would have made them (and especially old Whiskey Nose) even more conceited and full of themselves than they already are.

I guess if C-R7 comes to Madrid next season, then I'll have to like him!!! LOL.
DONUT SAY THAT! I'm still hoping he won't come. I'd rather have Kaká at Real than CRon!

I'm so late with this reply, so sorry, Bill!

But had to laugh @ the 'old whiskey nose' remark!!! LMFAO!!!

Hahahaha @ CR-7 remark as well! Oh no, I'd rather have Ronnie Puppet than Kaka! I don't think Real Madrid is the kind of team that would suit a Jesus Freak who rubs his religion in other peoples' faces! I admire players who are religious quietly and keep it all to themselves, only doing charitable work and stuff behind the scenes with no fanfare! Like Falcao. He is religious without shoving it in peoples' faces.

I just can't imagine Kaka in a Real Madrid game, lifting up his shirt to show a "Jesus Made Me" sloganed T-shirt. *shudders*
Sorry if you like him, but I lost my respect for him awhile ago!

It was really entertaining which usually doesn't happy in a final where they barely try to score so I'm fine.
Also thank you for the post, I was starting to feel like the only madridista who didn't mind Barça won!

txorakeriak June 1 2009, 15:25:31 UTC

You definitely aren't the only Madridista who didn't mind that Barça won! I mean, not only are they a Spanish club, but they're also not Manchester United, which was two good reasons for me to support them. Honestly, I think that every fan of good football should be happy for Barcelona because the title is a deserved reward for the beautiful football they've been playing this season.
