Woot! Bayern Munich 2 - 1 Manchester United! And Rooney is injured! Chelsea are going to win 5-0 this weekend! And Barcelona 2-2 Arsenal. What a match! A brilliant comeback from Arsenal, I thought.
**** it. Puyol should have never been sent off, terrible referrying!!! Barcelona dominated and should have thrashed Arsenal.

I agree Puyol shouldn't of been sent off,Fabregas just plonked his leg inside Puyols leg and fell over,what a con,i hate the Gooners,but that's only cos i'm a Spurs supporter As for Barcelona,was Messi even playing cos he was a ghost during the match,really poor and Barcelona didn't impress me that much.The Gooners impressed me even less and they must of been poor to let Imbrahimovic to score twice,cos he's one of the worst strikers out there,even worse than Bendtner I was laughing myself silly when Barca went 2-0 up but cheering when the gooners scored both there goals,even tho i do hate them they are still an english club,go figure As for Man U Now Shreks out for a bit they are gonna struggle 2nd leg
Just got back from the Arsenal match...terrible refereeing, he gave yellow cards to arsenal every other minute and free kicks to Barcelona when they got 'tackled'. Great match though, exciting, probably best I've been to.
Yeah, seriously awful decision. Barcelona had an amazing first half and made Arse-anal look like a bunch of amateurs, confused and couldn't even get the ball. They even had to resort to physicality and that's where they yellow cards came from. Arsenal are not used to play physical so some of their tackles are so clumsy *cough, Arshavin. However, they loosened up in the 2nd half and they must regret missing so many sitters. It could've easily been 0-4 by half time. Can't wait for the 2nd leg.
I know that, but if you really like your team you shouldn't leave. Anyway, here where I live we need to wait until the visitor's fans leave before we can so there is no point in leaving early.
Off topic: How was Puyol's red card a 'terrible decision'? 1) Didn't get the ball at all 2) Challenge from behind 3) Denied Fabregas his attempt on goal 4) In the penalty area Red card in the law of the game - if enforced properly. Just that many refs do half the job.
I just watched video of the incident again a few times over. As a neutral, I think it wasn't a penalty, it looks more like Fabregas swung his legs in between Puyol's. Also, as Puyol comes across, he's definitely looking at the ball and not the player. But it's hard for the ref to see these sorts of things from afar, so it's understandable that he gave the pen. I don't think anybody's refuting that red card, it's the penalty shout that people disagree with.
Well if you look again, it was Fabregas looking to volley and Puyol moved from behind and clattered him. Puyol MIGHT have tried to get the ball but gets nowhere near it. From the full on view you can clearly see Puyol swinging his right leg, catching Fabregas and no where near the ball.
I've just realised that all strikers with long hair are good (Drogba, Messi, Ibrahimovic, Ronaldinho, etc), while strikers who are bold suck (Rooney, Zamora, etc)!
