Barcelona Vs Manchester United.

Yesterday night was a blast. Watched Chelsea vs Barcelona. Barcelona went into the game without the injured Rafael Marquez and the suspended Carles Puyol. Pep Guardiola replaced them with Yaya Toure, who was forced to take the centre-back role, and youngster Martin Caceres, also my favourite player. Barcelona's attack consisted of Samuel Eto'o, Bojan and Leo Messi. Their central midfield wasn't as strong as the first leg, which consisted of Seydou Keita, Sergio Busquests(im not sure if Andreas Iniesta played), and captain Xavi. Chelsea went into the game with a v strong squad, even though i haven't seen much of Joe Cole.
Game started, and Barcelona had control of the game, having 70% of the possession. Then came Frank Lampard's deflected shot. Michael Essien si black received the ball, and blasted the ball into the top right-hand corner. Essien was v lucky on that occasion. Poor Victor Valdez, he must have cursed Essien. game went on, and Chelsea thought they had won the game after the second minute of extra time after a long 90 minutes. But Barcelona wasn't gonna give up. They kept searching and searching for the equaliser, and the equaliser came from one of the best central midfielder in the world, Andreas Iniesta. Leo Messi's shot somehow found it's way to Iniesta's legs, and he kept a thunderous shot low past Petr Cech. GOAL! Hahah. Barcelona then wasted time, putting Eidur Gudjohnson in for match-winner Iniesta and Sylvinho for Sam Eto'o. Chelsea won a corner thanks to Seydou Keita. Lampard took it quickly, and ball fell to Michael Ballack, who shooted the ball, and hit Keita's hand. Referee insisted he didn't saw anyth, so Ballack ran towards the referee and shouted at him. The referee was adamant of his decision, so, byebye Chelsea. HAHAH. What a game i must say. Drogba also had an issue with the referee, and went to an on-rolling camera to shout someth. Crazy Dog. And now, two of my favourite teams will meet in the finale in Rome. Clash of The Titans? Hahah. I'll blog some other time. Bye readers. :D
