The only length around here is you. Lehmans fault he walked and nobody elses. The goal should have stood too. Arsenals free kick was never a free kick. Bye bye Henry.
hard lines arsenal...think they might've done it with 11 men on the pitch thought they got the rough end of the deal from the ref
Henry's comments at the end were fucking brilliant.. "Is it just me or was the ref wearing a Barcelona shirt tonight?" "I take clips on the leg.. pushes and other general tackles.. but I stay on my feet as I'm not a woman.." Awesome response. I feel that the ref should have allowed the goal to stand.. Arsenal woulda had the character to comeback.. and woulda been given a fighting chance. Some of the decisions were terrible though.. Henry's yellow card for example.. horrific decision. Doesn't look like he'll be at the Nou Camp next season..
he was getting more & more pissed off as the match went on...i hope he stays at arsenal thought the barca players were out of order with the whole running up to the ref waving their arms trying to get cards brandished left right & centre....tossers
Thats what La Liga is like though. Its full of long haired tossers getting paid thousands of euros a week to feign serious injury when they get clipped by a player running past 3 feet away.
Arsenal deserved to win.. Being able to defend with 10 men against the best attacking team on the planet for nearly 50 mins is one hell of an achievement. Barca's 2 goals were weak.
got to agree there....wish terry henry had scored one of those chances at the beginning did you see bothe ronaldhinio & gilberto's faces when ronaldinhio tried to shoot & he spoond the ball
I know one of the officials was ment to be there but he was caught on camera wearing a Barcelona shirt
lehmann had to go, as soon as the ref blew his whistle he had to obey the rules. lehmann's fault. if he had seen the advantage and a goal was scored then lehmann could have stayed on the pitch as a goal scoring opportunity wasnt stopped. just because its a final you cant change the rules. the ref made the right decision, but it was probably one of the few he did get right all game.
