Champion's League Final **Will include spoilers**

Why is everyone moaning about Barca's first goal?

Arsenal shouldnt have had the free kick that led to theirs

Horses for courses

Feel sorry for Arsenal - worked their socks off there and probably got too tired in the end. Referee was a disgrace, got the sending off all wrong

No he didnt, the keeper took him out, he blew. He didnt know the next player running in would score. And once he's blown he has no choice. If the roles where reversed and it was arse going forward we would defo say it was a sending off.

Arsenal worked their socks off full credit to them and the ref was poor, but not with the sending off. Henry is always critised for not taking his chances in big games against the big clubs. Today enforced that view.

henry, what a guy, speaks the truth, nice sky interview

hes just said the ref had a barca shirt on
and that he (henry) should learn to dive like a woman

Funny, as the only goal they scored was a pathetic dive..
 
Eboue is a dirty DIRTY player. Seriously that first goal was totally not on. Anyone who says Arsenal were "Unlucky" tonight can shove it because the ref was totally on their side. Firstly the goal wasn't given, then that ridiculous free kick which lead to a goal. I was cheering for Arsenal, UNTIL I saw Eboue do his trick.

That was about the only decision that you can't argue with.

Well no you can argue about it, the goal was fair and just you either had the choice of;

a) keep the goal, keep it 11 a-side and make a proper spectacle of it
b) send him off.

Yes it was a sending off offence, but I would have prefered to seen a proper game and not what it boiled into.

Well played, they showed a lot of balls tonight.
 
What about all the tackles from behind on henry trying to bloody cripple him!!

Not one single card for barca for them blatant fouls.

Henry makes a "CLEAN" tackle and gets booked!

shoddy refereeing all over, someone should make the ref take his top off to make sure a barca one aint lurking underneath

That's the rules mate.

yes unfortunately they are but there are some refs out there that have the players best feeling at heart and wouldnt have served that card

we need refs who operate in the spirit of the law not robotic must do this must do that Blatter is going to kill me!! :D
 
No more Bergkamp and probably Pires :(

Did anyone think the decision to take off Fabregas for Flamini was really bad? I did at the time as Fabregas was the only one trying to take the pressure off and after that we didn't keep the ball at all and they scored 3 minutes later.

I also thought Cole was really off the pace today right from the start.
