Overall its a victory for football in general. Chelsea vs Man U final would have been as interesting as Juventus vs Milan was.

This is a victory for football. Even if Chelsea deserved the win, who cares? The winner takes it all. Barcelona plays stellar football and now the final is worth watching. Messi overrated? In which cave have you spent the previous years? And Henry has played really well this season too. I can't fking believe people can actually root for a team that crawls in its own goal and then waits for a counter (unless you live near Stanford Bridge ^^).

Look I don't like Chelsea and I'm glad it's a Barca-Man.U final.
But Chelsea have just proven that they are the better team.
Barca didn't have a single decent chance until the goal. They did nothing for 90 minutes.
It's NOT a victory for football.

Yet again the CL leaves a very bitter taste in my mouth. I hate this competition SO MUCH but it just means so much that I can't stop watching.
The final has basically been ruined now.

I loved how you can spend 80 minutes wasting time and then cry when the referee whistles. MOHAHAHA

Football god is rewarding gameplay at least!

Im surprised to see how many complain about Chelsea's play style given that this is a website dedicated to competitive gaming.

Football, when played professionally, is about winning, not how you win.

Barca got really, really lucky in this game and Chelsea fans have a right to feel aggrieved.

Barcelona were wasting time! They barely had a shot.

Let's get 11 professionals to play some blind babies. That'll make for some great gameplay!

Well go ahead and feel aggrieved I'm just happy there's a @#$%ing great FINAL in store. Whoever win is good for me because I support Nottingham Forests who were down long ago, LOL. Just give me a good match when me and buddies all booze in front of TV on the final.. heheh.

Yea the goal was lucky, but remember they played 10 vs 11 for the last ~25 minutes; but hey, it's stuff like this that keeps football interesting and entertaining.

people claim Chelsea "Deserved" to be in the finals cause of Cech longballs to Anelka, Drogba and hope the ball slip past the defenders so they can score, surprisningly it worked to some extent but to use that tactics and hope to win be crowned the "best" football team in the world is a joke.

You're from UK, if you really believe football is designed to put 10 players around the box and kick the ball hoping for a strong guy to run a lot you should switch to the american football.

At the first leg I even felt embarrased when Cech just served directly to Valdes like 15 times. Do you really want that to pass? 180 minutes with 10 men on the box and a lucky goal should pass? C'MON!!!!!

I'm pretty sure, Barcelona had more shots, they got blocked or went out of bounds. Alves was especially horrible for Barcelona with errant shots. Chelsea had more chances, but sometimes their players didn't get a shot off.

Of course I don't think football is about putting 10 players around the box. The English league certainly isn't about that, even the games I watch live every Saturday in league1 are about high tempo and playing the ball on the ground.

But this is a game, and a game has rules. Read my sig.

Nah you won't get flamed, both sides are right but Barca was destined to be in the Final. That's just life and that's just football

think it was a good gesture of Guardiola that when they were losing he hugged Hiddink, i gain more respect for him after watching that
