Match Commentary
93' FULL-TIME: A marvellous match, with some stout defensive play from Real finally coming unstuck late on as Barca's attacking instincts are justifiably rewarded. It's especially hard luck on Casillas though who was world class in the match. |
91' GOAL: Messi has won the game for Barcelona after Henry selflessly plays him in on goal. He is one on one with Casillas and dinks a delightful chip over the keeper. Cannavaro is very unlucky not to stop the ball on the goal-line but his desperate lunge succeeds only in helping the ball in to his own goal. 2-0 to Barcelona. |
89' Hleb wins a ball with a firm shoulder charge but then Casillas gets a yellow for some back-chat to the ref. Now Xavi strolls off as Keita takes his place. Three minutes of time are to be added. |
