The Real
game personified everything crap about European football. The play acting was appalling.

As you say below, the skill levels are as good as you will see. But for me it means absolutely nothing if you act like such a complete cunt.

To be fair to him
Messi actually seems like the one player with a bit of integrity. Takes the immense amount of fouling that his style of play attracts and holds his hand up when he's guilty himself.

I agree with Mourinho pointing out that Barca have had it fucking easy from the refs
Especially after Arsenals treatment.

This is why Messi will go on to be regarded as better than Maradona
Despite his heritage and the long-established practices in Argentinian football, he's not a cheating cunt

I concur entirely
At least it sets up a potentially interesting second leg, as Real will have to take the game to Barca at the Nou Camp rather than parking the bus like Jose did last year
