For the sixth consecutive year, Real Madrid did not make it to the quarterfinals of the Champions League after tonight’s elimination in the last 16 of the competition. Three weeks after losing in Lyon (0-1) in the first leg of their matchup, they could not get a win, tonight, in their home stadium of Santiago Bernabeu. Cristiano Ronaldo scored an early goal (Min ’6), and despite an impressive domination over the match in the first half, Real Madrid could not score a second goal. Olympique Lyon midfielder Pjanic scored an equalizer with 15 minutes to go and ruined Florentino Perez’s plan to have his Real Madrid win the Champions League in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

FC Barcelona wins Champions League Final

Football Tickets Barcelona — Wed, 27 May 2009 21:45:59 +0000

They did it ! FC Barcelona players finished their fantastic 2009 season with an incredible win over Manchester United in the Champions League final, tonight, in Rome Olympic Stadium. Samuel Eto’o and Leo Messi each scored in a technically breathtaking football match.

The first 5 minutes of the match were tense, with Manchester United keeping the ball and kicking 3 times at Victor Valdes. But it is FC Barcelona who scored first at the 10th minute, on its first offensive play of the match. Magistitailly put in ideal position by Andres Iniesta, Samuel Eto’o got rid of Vidic and opened the score (1-0). Like in Paris in 2006, Eto’o scored the first goal of the final for the Blaugrana.

A dominating Barça

Metamorphosed atfter the first goal, the catalan players were more active and kept the ball moving. Messi, at the 18th minute, tried his luck from 25 metres… A few inches over Van der Sar’s goal.

Iniesta and Xavi, as a magicians duet, were controlling the ball and trying to alert the forwards Eto’o and Henry on both sides, and Messi in the middle. But it was only one goal ahead that FC Barcelona went back at half-time.

Messi for the win… and history

With 20 minutes to go, Messi scored in between the 2 giants Vidic and Ferdinand… with the head! The Argentine Genius took off, and at the top of his of extension, put the ball out reach from Van der Sar (2-0)

Leo Messi scores the 2nd goal

Historical !

The Catalans have made history tonight. With a brand new defense (Alves and Abidal suspended, Marquez injured) they won their 3rd trophy of the season after the Spanish League and the King’s Cup earlier this month. Carles Puyol was a very happy captain, and Pep Guardiola, for his first season on the bench, was a very happy coach…
