Barcelona won the Champions League
Last night was a magnficent night — the finals of the Champions League, played in Rome on the Olympico stadium. The show before the game was spectacular, but the game was even more so. In an amazing display, Barcelona, with Andres Iniesta as part of the starting squad (he successfully recovered from the injury), beat Manchester United 2-0.
Andres Iniesta played a great match, and together with Xavi Hernandez, controlled the midfield. The first goal was scored by Eto’o, and guess who passed the ball to him? It was Iniesta, of course. The “midfielder king”, as they call him, played great through the whole game, showed us some great moves. Pep Guardiola substituted him just before the end of the game in order to prevent any potential injuries.
All in all, Barcelona won the treble this year (La Liga, Copa del Rey and Champions League), and Andres Iniesta is a part of that success. Barca is more than a club, definitely.
