Barcelona Win the Champions' League.... Again


As much as I hate to say it, the Catalans are pretty much unstoppable. After knocking out some of the other strongest teams in Europe, including Arsenal and Real Madrid, they also managed to destroy Manchester United in the second half of the Champions' League final. Up until the end of the first half, when the score was still equal, the game seemed equal too. But then, the second half started, and Manchester had no chance. Barca controlled the game to the point that United had 1 shot on goal, and that being Rooney's goal. The Blaugranas finished off the Reds with two fantastic strikes from Messi and David Villa, and won their 3rd Champions' League in the last 6 years. And this year, they did it without diving (in the final, atleast). So, what do they do now? They've won just about everything. If European competitions stay like this for the next few years, it's gonna be a long and boring ride.

Number Nineteen

Six points. That's now the gap between Manchester United and Chelsea after the Red Devils beat the Blues 2-1. And there's only two games left. Now, it looks like Manchester United have grabbed their 19th Premier League title to overtake Liverpool. Mathematically they haven't won it, but do you really see them losing to Blackburn or Blackpool? Even if they get as much as a point, they've go it.  During this crazy season, both Arsenal and Chelsea have had utter collapses in form to hand the Red Devils the title. They have been totally consistent, to the point where even I can say they deserved it. I wish it was Arsenal up there. Oh well, congrats to Manchester United. Oh, and Manchester City beat Tottenham 1-0 today. Ha.
