Big game and it needs a big game referee. None of the nonsense from the Real game last night.

    Nice to see Juve in their normal 4-2-3-1 system, with no defensive variation.

    Iniesta is a great player but he always seems to be in the referee's face when things aren't going well, especially at the Nou Camp.

    I was watching Higuain and thinking "get your finger out", then he made a brilliant diagonal run onto a Pjanic pass, but failed to connect properly with the shot. Top class.

    Some brilliant players on the pitch.

    Barca struggling with the new concept of "Its not an automatic free kick when you fall over". The ref has done well so far.

    Barca seem to have spent 25 minutes playing football and the other 20 either on the floor or moaning at the ref

    Ref is the best one on the pitch so far

    Proper defending by Chiellini & Bonucci. Old school Italian defending in the style of Claudio Gentile. Brilliant positioning

    Nights like this I remember how much I loathe Barça. Whining players and a crowd who want penalties and red cards as a right. C'mon Juve.

    What game are you watching? What players/incidents are you referring to?

    Chiellini and Bonucci are a pleasure to watch. Incredible defensive performance.

    Well I'm as pissed as a fart and can't muster an opinion about this game.

    This post took 20 minutes.

    I did say I'm pissed.

    Higuain looks knackered, surprised Dybala is off. I'd stick Mandzukic up front and freshen up the left/midfield. Mandzukic battles until he drops.

    hes the biggest cheat on the planet - summed up by his handball in the 2010 World Cup.

    What a defensive display. Nice to see a team not all about spending 200 million on every striker available in sight. Instead having a nice balance to the side.

    Barca didn't score a goal across both legs.

    terrific defensive performance from Juventus .. BUT .. how many close shaves and missed chances did Barcelona have ? ..
    still good but Barcelona are looking close to a spent force .. now 4 south European sides in the semis

    Terrible tactics from Barcelona. Too many crosses that Juventus were happy to clear and no real danger came from them.

    sexy football from Juve, nothing more beautiful than a ground out away 0-0, Chiellini and Bonucci are wonderful to watch in that mood

    It's great to watch when a team like Barcelona is constantly going at them, not so much fun when it's another side playing narrow and looking to nick something and play on the break to. Chiellini is a great defender though, in the mould of a lot of cynical Italians that have come before.

    Yeah I'm not sure I'd wanna see a Juve v Atletico final.

    That's the final I want. Juve don't just defend. They have Higuain and Dybala - better than 99% of attackers in the prem. And yeserday also had Cuadrado and Mandzukic on the pitch. They just held a 3-0 lead and went to Barca to not concede and succeeded in doing so. They would walk the prem.
