That was an example of how, when a team park the bus, even Barca can be stopped with a couple of bad finishes & a bit of iffy reffing.
And they have Messi. When ratface showed examples of City at Stoke, it was almost identical attack v defence. The biggest difference (apart from Messi) is that Barca don't lose heart & keep going at it relentlessly. They also they have players who keep the ball & lay it off, on the edge of the box; ours tend to try something clever & lose it.
Now if Milan had been playing Real Madrid, would they have played the same way ? I recon not. I think Milan would take Real on.
That is because even though Real are above them, everyone knows Barca are a better football team & some opposition concentrate purely on stopping them.
We have the same problem in the prem compared to the rags.
We should now get a chance to play v some teams who will have a go.
