Well Done Barca!!!

Barca triumph in Paris

Barcelona came back from a goal down to beat 10-man Arsenal 2-1 to win the Champions League final at the Stade de France. Late goals from Samuel Eto'o and substitute Juliano Belletti cancelled out a first-half header from Arsenal defender Sol Campbell. Arsenal became the first side ever to have a player sent off in a final when keeper Jens Lehmann was dismissed early on.

My View - A game worthy of watching till the very end, Being a Kop, I always admired a team with versatality and dynamic and depth. Barca are all that even if you forget Ronaldhinio the flair of Deco, Iniesta, Larson, Eto, Puyol but in the Gunners you can help admire their team form Lehmann, young stars like Flamini, Fabregas, Helb, with Henry, Gibeltro.... a situation you dun know who to root for. Arsenal defended in the manner that had created a new Champions League record for impregnable defense that during Wednesday's game nearly reached 1,000 minutes before they were breached.

In the end it was somewhat short of the classic we had anticipated but 10 vs 11. who could argue that. Well done Barca!!!!!
