Barcelona Vs Inter Milan CL Semi Finals 2nd Leg
-
Inter is leading 3-1 from the first leg, but at Nou Camp with jome support, Barcelona can up and ante and can quite easily score 2 goals.
Mourinho will surely opt for an all out attack at Nou Camp like against chelsea at stamford bridge. I think he will stifle Barcelona's midfield by stopping xavi and co from playing. if you let xavi stamp his authority in midfield, that is suicide.
I favour barcelona to go thru. but if barcelona failed to progress, it will not surprised me as Mourinho tactics is usually spot-on.

Bayern to beat Inter in final
-
thiago motta got a red card and was sent off. he got a straight red for using his hand to brush the face of a barcelona player vying the ball with him. barcelona as usual had most of the ball, but could not score. HT still 0-0.
surely inter is not going to prevent barcelona from scoring with a man down? even if barcelona scored 1, it needed to score another goal to tie aggregate to 3-3 and go thru on away goals. I am sure Mourinho will send out his inter team parking in front of the goalie. trust him just to do that.
-
mourinho cant play attack anymore like he wanted to after the red card. so now ll got to park bus.
ibramovic is very lousy. how can he be the key barca striker?? reminds me ALOT like berbatov. looks wise and play wise
-
61 mins and barcelona still cant score? dun tell me they wait until 80 mins to score 2 goals?
-
Ibrahimovic is being sub and replaced by the youngster krkic.
-
sneider is subbed as he is not match fit and is injured. send in another player to help with the defending.
-
pique scored. another barcelona goal will send barcelona thru. 82 mins liao plus injury time.
-
Barcelona is out of the CL as they could not score another goal. inter was like playing with 10 players for the last 1 hour of football. as usual, barcelona had most of the ball, but they could not threaten inter's goal as their goal was parked with inter players. what a disappointing match it turned out to be. a one sided contest, with one team passing and passing without really threatening, and the other defending with 10 men.
-
Messi is uncharacteristically been quiet in the whole match. he is unable to produce his qf form against arsenal in both matches. what a disappointing way for barcelona to bow out like this, with them having most of the possession in 2 legs. barcelona need a striker like etoo to score goals in crucial matches. ibrahimovic is simply not good enough for a big club like barcelona to score goals consistently. surprisingly barcelona did not even turned to henry, instead krkic the teenager was sent on instead of the veteran striker.
-
RA must be damn pek chek now.
i hope mourinho wins the CL with inter.
-
i predicted correctly the semi-finalists and now the finalists as well..........
Bayern will beat Inter...................even though Inter are slight favourites.

The match was a disappointment, both team resort to dirty tactic to try and get a place in the Final.
Busquets is an actor-wannabe. Motta only touched Busquests' neck and chin, he flung himself on the ground covering his eyes and entire face. WTF? And when Motta is shown the red card, Busquets miraculously recovered. Motta was mad and grabbed Busquets in the neck and strangely, instead of covering his neck, Busquets covered his ear.
Inter made a last-minute change with striker Goran Pandev, originally named in the starting XI, replaced by defender Cristian Chivu.
Such a move is only allowed if an injury has occurred and Inter could yet be asked to provide evidence to that effect.
I wonder if Mourinho has played another trick, tricking Barca into thinking that he is going all out to attack but withdraw at the last minute with a defender replacing a striker? He is no stranger to controversies.
However, Barca paid the price for the disappointing 1st Leg, coupled with the impotent attack with numerical advantage for the whole 1 hour in the 2nd Leg. The better team did indeed go through. Well done Inter Milan.

possesion is 18%.?Yup. And partly because they are a man down. Shows how sucky Barca attacked the whole match. 20 shots and only 4 on target. The only goal they scored is offside by the way, despite a really nice turn by Pique.

Abramovich don't care a damn if Chelsea win or not...................he bought the club for shady reasons.

Zlatan is waaay better looking than Berbatov.:)

at one point of the match, barca had strung 400 plus passes compared to inter's 50 odd; about 9 times more. And why did they score only one goal?
Inter's defence was very, very organised. Their back 4 was always coordinating the offside trap. Once thiago got sent off, the inter players stuck to a certain zone each. And at any one time when barca players advanced in the final third, there would always be at least 2 people to close him down.
My bet is on mourinho to win his 2nd european cup with a different club.
In contrast, when man u were a man down against bayern, the players were running out of positions, seemingly lost on what to do. Mourinho is truly a top class manager, the best there ever was.
-
Dunno about Barca being an "attacking team". They more of an Acting team instead.
Match full of divings & play-acting. kinda reminds me of ManU players.
They did it to Chelsea & now wanna do it to Inter. Luckily, the kelong Refs not good enuff.

hahaha someone's got big time jealousy of utd.

haha... well done Inter..
