anyway, it was a really nice match to watch-they were actually playing not just kicking ball...
and van nistelroy is surely the best striker in the world at the moment-his goal was really nice

Great match yesterday, i'm proud of my juventus, they played very well.
Unfortunately Trezeguet, Ferrara and Tacchinardi played with flu anyway great match. We deserved to draw the match, imo.
Next Tuesday we'll wait for these Red Devils in Turin... with all Juve without influenza and virus various, i hope.
Go Juve go!

this is the italian year... I am sure that milan, juve and inter will be in the 1/4 finals... so 3 out of 8... possibly the champion will be italian.
for barça: I wish they could win but I doubt it... still I see they are doing a great job so far in this champions league

Saviola is really strong!

hmm, please no offense, but i thought that barcelona game against inter wasnt that good-inter sucked big time
about barcelona-the first goal was lucky the other two were both because of saviola-and he did it on his own
others were just trying to hit long balls towards him but there wasnt a single action in their game
i wouldnt mind if barca wins the champions cup, but if they're counting to do that with a game like against inter im not sure they can make it-well perhaps if they get lucky
i would love to see barca vs. real final match (i would cheer for madrid in this one hehe, but it would be cool if barca would win, since they're really having some problems in spanish league)

last 15 minutes of 1st half and maybe first 10 mins of 2nd half Inter had the control of the ball and they really pushed it up a lot... but, the rest of the match and above all in the 2nd half barcelona played much better imo.
ok, barça didnt play all time attacking and ball control, they waited inter and after nice preasure they did great strikes back.
first goal lucky??? first goal was amazing and third too

barca were better the whole game imo-they totally deserved to win that game
i was trying to say that they would have to play better if they want to beat teams like machester, juventus, milan and madrid
perhaps i confused those goals a bit there the one by saviola was excellent the one they scored from the corner kick was lucky and the one by kluivert was excellent again-but all credit for this one goes to saviola
im sure they're going to improve their game now that luis enrique is returning...
they need someone to create tha game, xavi is pretty good at that but im sure enrique will do even better work

uefa.com
Early breakthrough The longer the game went on, the more Barça dominated - although it was effectively over as a contest once Alvaro Recoba had been sent off for a challenge on Carles Puyol with ten minutes still to play. It took just eight minutes for the home side to score. Saviola latched on to a Xavi Hernández pass and took the ball neatly wide of Fabio Cannavaro before letting fly with a left-foot shot which beat Francesco Toldo at his right-hand post.
Cocu cool Christian Vieri had a great chance to level the scores in the 28th minute when he was played clean through but failed to control a high ball dropping over his shoulder before Carlos Puyol scuttled back to clear. Barcelona immediately brought the ball forward with Saviola, who forced a corner. The set-piece fell to Kluivert, who watched his stinging effort parried by Toldo straight to the feet of Cocu, who made no mistake.
Reiziger rescue Five minutes before half-time, Michael Reiziger came to Barcelona's rescue as Cannavaro's flick was cleared off the line and moments later Barça keeper Roberto Bonano tipped Luigi Di Biagio's rising drive over the crossbar.
Woodwork struck Barcelona dominated the second half, however, and Cocu went close to grabbing his second goal of the night when he was left completely unmarked but his 56th-minute downward header from Xavi Hernández's cross struck the post and bounced out with Inter's defence flat-footed.
Rueful Recoba Recoba had a chance to pull a goal back for the Italians on the hour but, under pressure from Frank de Boer, he lashed the effort wide and it was to be the visitors' last meaningful attack. Seven minutes later a wonderful jinking run from Saviola tore them apart in their own penalty area and when the Argentinian squared the ball, Kluivert slid in to crash Barcelona's third goal past Toldo with the aid of the left-hand post.
Straight red The game's tempo was raised again when Recoba appeared to stamp on Puyol as the two challenged for a loose ball. The Ba

Straight red The game's tempo was raised again when Recoba appeared to stamp on Puyol as the two challenged for a loose ball. The Barcelona players were incensed at the Uruguayan's challenge and referee Anders Frisk brandished the red card to a sheepish-looking Recoba.
Hero's return To complete a perfect night for the Barcelona fans, Luis Enrique made a late entrance as a substitute having spent four months out with an achilles problem - but by that stage the hard work had already been done.

inter is my favourite team (second favourite is madrid) but the way they played last couple of games was really terrible-they didnt have a single chance to score, vieri is totally out of his form, perhaps if crespo would be there it would change something, but i doubt that since the whole team didnt do anything, recoba was trying to do something but no real success there, canavarro was disapointing, dalmat wasnt even noticed, ...
they just play really bad lately, but i hope they'll improve something before its too late

yeah, uefa made it sound really dramatic, but i really didnt enjoy that game, it wasnt a football i like to watch...
i loved the manchester-juventus game though, it was just full of nice actions and nice tactic by juve (with players that were able to play)
but on the end-goals are what its all about and not the artistic value of the team :)
