Hail the Champions of Europe

Last night was a night to remember for any football fan (except ManU fans) as Barcelona produced and outstanding display to bring the high flying red devils crashing to the ground. The 2-0 win, courtesy of Etoo and Messi, was worth both the goals and the 90 minutes of normal play. Barcelona came with a purpose, and ManU couldn't have done any harm by staying at OT.

The Spanish giants were a class apart with Xavi and Iniesta pulling the strings of their well orchestrated moves, and EtoO, Messi and Henry applying the finishing touches. For United, Ronaldo still had the energy and hunger but sadly no one else seemed to care about it. That just proved that Ronaldo cannot turn a game on his own. But, hey, Football is a team game and 10 others are expected to to their part as well.

In the end, Guardiola's men did the hard work and reaped the rich rewards with three titles this season (the Copa del Rey, La Liga and the Champions League). They were deserved winners in Roma.
