Spanish national anthem roundly booed by both sets of fans before kick off!

Barcelona to cruise it or Athletic Bilbao to pull off a shock with their team made up of players all drawn from the local area?

    That is pure class.

    I don't care what anyone says about Ronaldo... watching Messi slalom in full flow is magical.

    That first Messi goals is one of the best I've ever seen. He was standing still with the ball near the half way line when he picked it up. How does he do it!?

    I liked the Sky publicity ad for the final, it seemed like Barcelona were playing against themselves...

    I understand Bilbao doing that but why Barca ?

    The Spanish government are considering fining both clubs for their fans booing and whistling during the national anthem, under the 'anti-violence and racism' law. Funny old country here.

    Good job Spain backed Blatter, or else they'd run the risk of being banned for politics interfering in football.

    was it played at the Nou Camp, if so, why were Barcelona at home?

    Sounds like a bit of a strange system to me:

    Does seem strange. Barca wanted to play at the Bernabeu!

    Like a lot of things here, the venue choice for the final is always odd. Strangely it is not decided at the start of the season but when the finalists are known. Sometimes it is a neutral venue, other times at one of the team's grounds.

    Probably would have been at Atletico Madrid's Vicente Calderon this year but ACDC were playing there the next day!

    We were still in Barcelona until Saturday evening. There were Bilbao fans everywhere Friday and Saturday, including our hotel.
    Good fun.
