I wonder if Martinez will start being first choice for Spain. Really impressive work from him tonight.

It's obscene how good the Spanish squad is, when players like Martinez aren't a shoe-in.

Never know what might happen in the second leg. First 10-20 mins will be huge.

I don´t know about Barca as I don´t have spanish tv. But I have to avoid german television for a couple of weeks now, that´s for sure.

Will be the same when that wanker Klopp and his boyband make the final or (God forbid) even win the whole thing... I'm dreading the thought of that. At least, with Bayern they can't do much more than they're already doing...

Didn't want Bayern to win tonight after the Gotze fiasco but anybody who has watched Bayern this season will have seen this beating coming.

God shut the fuck up Chiles. Barca lost but that doesn't mean passing football is the wrong way to play the game.

Robben could have been killed there, seems to be a Dutch thing!

Joking aside what happened to Barca? They just seemed to collapse. Bayern score at the Nou Camp and it's all over for me.

Can't believe I'm typing this, but: Messi has been shit today.

More that he isn't fit to play and has been rushed back. It hasn't helped that Schweinsteiger has performed admirably in man marking him.

Never seen any official standing behind the goal line do anything other than indicate when the ball has crossed the line. Never flagged for offside, never referred the ref to a missed foul. Ever.

Me neither, my two lads (sweets and cans) have called them 'the paedos' for ages. Useless 'the paedos' are, standing there with a Harry Potter wand and not even an Expeliamos, USELESS.

This tie was over at 2-0.. 4-0 no contest at all.

There was a time not so long ago when we were beating teams 4-0 at home...

Yep back in December. Fulham didn't know what had hit them.

are you seriously suggesting that was a red? Come on mate.

I'm not saying it would be if I was in charge, but Babel touching someone on the face in the Europa League? Could quite easily have been a red in Europe and yes, I'm surprised it wasn't given. Good common sense refereeing though.

Xavi is no longer the same player the decline has started, Bayern have the best midfield in the world.

Wouldn't say that, they'll be back next year, remember they're cruising to a league title.

They've suffered from being without Villanova for so long, it upset their rhythm and since then they've been playing catch up. Messi being injured hasn't helped either obviously.

DerKaiser · « **Reply #10503 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:37:37 pm »

Disappointed. Hopefully the little man can score 4 in the second leg.

Fuckin well in Bayern.

When Messi doesn't click Barca really do look average and a team struggling.

Bayern just need to hold their nerve and stay focused and then hopefully last years travesty can be put to rest.

b_joseph · « **Reply #10507 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:38:37 pm »

Probably the worst Barca performance since they went to the Bernabeu in 2008 after Real had just won the league.

All credit to Bayern though because they didnt make one mistake in any area of the pitch for 90 minutes. Hard to do against a relegation team, let alone the best team ever.

Simes from Gravesend: "Everyone seems to be talking about how strong Bayern are. They are playing the best club side the world has seen. Barca to win by 3 or 4."

BBC make me laugh.

Well done Simes you quilted twat.

Dominated by a more physical and hungry team that gave them no time to get their usual fluid passing game going. Barca have one way of playing and it's normally good enough but the over reliance on Messi has really caught up with them.

Caligula? · « **Reply #10510 on:** April 23, 2013, 09:38:56 pm »

That was one of the best performances in CL history. Absolutely everything was perfect about that from start to finish. It could have been 6-0 as well. Against Barcelona too.

Don't care what anyone says, Barcelona are not coming back from this. Bayern will rip them to shreds in the second leg as well. The pitch will be bigger, it suits counter-attacking teams.

Oh for sure they'll always be their or abouts, I do think Xavi is declining though from his high standards.

All Prem teams OUT including the Mancs and STILL moaning about who's left in it and what they're doing.

Well done Ref... Although Munich were better he gifted them two goals... Its baffling how bad the refs are....
Anyways Barca were crap and I was suprised they didnt make subs... Pedro and Sánchez were crap and Villanova looked clueless... Playing an injured Messi didnt help....

Have to root for Real / Dortmund - cant stand Munich at all...

You can't. Don't tell me Bayern will be better next season. This is the best Bayern team since the European Cup Hat Trick in the mid 70s.
