The sad thing is that if Chelsea do somehow manage to hang on, it'll be seen as a brave rearguard action against the odds when, in fact, having Terry sent off has made no difference to their approach whatsoever. Ten men camped in their own penalty area.

Much as I don't want to, I've got a sneaking feeling Chelsea are going to do this. :(

Hopefully I'll be proven wrong though.

Can't say I blame them for there approach

I can't see Barcelona scoring. Cue years of ITV and Sky harking back to the most amazing result in European club football since football was invented in 1992.

Messi hits the post just after Barca have one disallowed for offside....maybe lady luck is on their side tonight.

If you live abroad you tend to want all English teams/athletes or whatever to do well. You can have no idea how much it meant to me when David Platt scored that injury time winner against Belgium in 1990, I went to work next day with a big smile :)

Did the replay show it as a save? I'm not listening to the commentary and only glanced up.



Both need to concentrate. This is the time when Barcelona are in danger of letting their heads drop because they can't see it happening, and Chelsea getting complacent because they can see it might happen.

So as it stands, Chelsea will be without Meireles, Terry, Ramires, Ivanovic and possibly Cahill for the Final.
