@mkeiyd,
The ball was not in play at the D and there is no penalty to be given for that!!!

Ibra should have won a penalty when Mascherano brought him down in the box, if the referee was using the same criteria he used to award the penalties to Barca. But he waved play on. How Mascherano continu...ed to be on the pitch after another wild lunge at Boateng, still beats me.

Don't just support barca for the sake of it, if you are the best team in the world you don't need such decisions consistently to win the cup (we all remember chelsea, arsenal, real madrid and now AC Milan, why always them???)

@McReggae, why always Barca, i won't know.
The rules of the game state that, "If the ball is in play" it doesn't have to be in the D, but in play. The corner kick was played then Basquets was brought down.
Check page 109 of the Fifa rules.

I started supporting Barca in the days of Philip Cocu, back then they were in shadows of Ac, Madrid, Man U etc.
To set the record straight, i just love them.
They've always been my favorite,then Arsenal,then AC/Everton.

They might play the most beautiful football on the planet, but Barcelona are butchering their reputation with the blatant simulation on show against Real Madrid...

Milan got away with this yet no one said a word, Wenger also complained about the pitch after the 4-0 defeat but he was called a "sore loser". During Mourinho's time at Inter he also did the same thing to stop the likes of Barca and other teams from passing the ball effectively.....flood the pitch to slow down play.

"Replays showed Nesta grabbing the shirt of Busquets. A misdemeanour in Italy proved to be a crime in Spain and the spot kick was given" A foul is a foul, whether its a simple pull of the shirt or a two footed tackle. It happened inside the box so a penalty had to be given.

Today's games are a formality with Madrid up 2 goals and chelsea leading through a penalty with the Benfica skipper given matching orders!!

Chelsea struggled past a 10 man Benfica to a point of getting knocked, stand no chance against Barca!!!

Chelsea vs Barca, Bayern vs Real. Those are two exciting semi-finals. I hope Di Matteo has what it takes to bring back the Mourinho days when Chelsea would nearly hammer the living daylights out of Barcelona. But on their current form, it's Barca for the finals. In the other game, it's hard to tell. It can go either way. But one thing I cannot bet on is Barca winning the trophy in May.

Nesta argued that Puyol was acting as a shield to prevent Nesta from covering Busquets so that should have been the first foul given, but hayo ni maji yalimwagika na hayawezi zoleka.

As people rightly observe, Barca are so good they don't need perceived biasness from refs. And anyway, if there's a team that should be the first to retain the CL title in it's current format then it's Barca - Di Matteo's Chelsea have no chance (especially with the return at Camp Nou), Mourinho's and Guus Hiddink's Chelsea did.

I have a feeling Bayern will beat Real, but that's just a feeling.

Back to that imminent 20th title...

C&P: Jose Mourinho Post Match press conference

APOEL have done great in this tournament and leave happy with their two goals tonight. Cristiano Ronaldo always works hard for the team, he is not selfish and he always wants to play. I'm happy for Kaká, and also with Ángel Di María and José Callejón. I'm happy for everyone. Bayern will be a great semi-final. FC Barcelona will play in the final, while the tie between Real Madrid and Bayern München will be more even.

Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly Laughing out loudly As a matter of fact!
