So this result proved what most of us already knew: in a weak La liga(which is a 2 team race), Messi and Barca look like kings, scoring goals and hatricks by the dozen. But pit them against the best organized teams from the world and they dont have a plan B, and are exposed. Messi went missing, and Chelseas defenders were outstanding, esp the English guys in the team. And Messis tricks wont work in EPL, esp against the physical teams, and he will have to resort to diving and play acting to get advantage. Let Barca continue their glory against Valencia, mallorca and the likes.

hahahahaha... i can only laugh at your ignorance. if u do not know anything about european soccer then plz do not post some rubbish. stick to useless sub-continent cricket.
Whole of europe knows that best european football is played in Spain, Germany and Italy in that order. Why does ur eng team suck big time when it comes to world cups if they r so gr8 players???
Barca thrashed Man U in 2011 to win champions league at Wembley in english conditions.
Now wait for 24th and see for urself how Chelsea is gonna be thrashed. result could be 3-0 or 4-0 in favour of barca...

True. Barca were unlucky yesterday. They should have scored at least 6 goals (4 of them superb chances that hit the post by Alexis, Cesc, Pedro, Messi). They had 73 percent ball position throughout the game. All I can say is Chelsea played well yesterday learning from their 2009 blunder and defended well and aply supported by their home crowd. But at Nou Camp, they will be running skelter. 6-0 at Nou camp next week.
Chelsea won't be able to beat Barca at Camp Nou. not even in their dreams....
even in the game at Stamford bridge, Barca were the better side hands down. They had numerous opportunities to score but a majority of them hit the woodwork.. On any other day the ball would have found the net.
Chelsea had no answer to the mesmerizing passes of Messi, Iniesta, fabregas, sanchez etc..
Camp Nou will see a result of either 2-0 or 3-0 in favour of Barca..

1.Messi...only plays for Barca,with National team he is flop. 2.Iniesta....only knows to finish the game in final minutes otherwise he is hidden. 3.Fabregas....he is the biggest traitor Arsenal had,cuz of Cesc gunners lost 3-1 at nou camp and 4-3 overall last year in CL Pqf. 4.Alexi sanchez...who is this toffee boy.

wrong boy, Chelsea defense was awesome, i watched the entire match,even though i am Man U fan, it was a tough match but when Chelsea got chance they cashed in, if you checked halftime analysis how strong was Chelsea defense. what a save by A.cole inside the penalty area. was one of the great matches ever i have watched.
Unfortunately for chelsea the celebrations will last for only 1 week. Next week , it will be 2-0 Barcelona. Once again Chelase owner will look heavenwards for that elusive CL Trophy.
