Barcelona vs Manchester United: Who will annex the coveted trophy?

Written By Unknown on Friday, May 27, 2011 | Friday, May 27, 2011

Two behemoths of European football battle it out on the tittle they first won at a ‘mythical shrine’, Wembly stadium. Who will annex the coveted trophy?

As the sun has set on many, if not all leagues across Europe, people from all walks of life will be engrossed by the finale of the most prestigious tournament in the world, the Uefa Champions League.

Both teams have won their respective leagues convincingly, and without a doubt they are filled with confidence to the brim. Bookmarkers and Pundits have tipped Barcelona to run away as winners in this tie of the titans, but have done so with a shadow of a doubt, in cognizance of Manchester United's pedigree.

In retrospect to the 2009 final in Rome between these two teams,where Barca won 2-0, there was a common denominator between both teams as they had world class players in their camps who were peerless, in a form of Christiano Ronaldo for the Red devils and Lionel Messi for the Catalan based club. Now the former wears the white strips of Los Blancos and the latter is still at Barca, turning defenders inside and out in the drop of the shoulder.

Now with Fergie bereft CR7, and Pep still enjoying the irrepressible displays of the atomic flea, the latter holds an advantage given that Messi can turn the game in his favour in a blink of an eyelid. He (Pep) once quipped to a fan after one of Messi's grandeur goal that,''if it weren't for him,i would be working in the third division.''That tells you how Barca's system relies on Messi, if their benign possession football does not bear any fruition.

With that said, it will be treacherous to write off Sir Alex Ferguson's charges. They thrive on team work and their winning mentality. They have the 'killer instinct' and the 'devil-may-care' convictions, that has brought them insurmountable success.

Whatever the outcome, it will be a pleasure to watch Barca's carousel of passing football and the adept tactical exhibition of United.Any score predictions?
