Seemed like once they scored it kicked the life out of us, we looked shocked and never got over it. There is a bit too much "It'll be Alright on the Night" in us sometimes, luck isn't going to dig you out of the hole everytime, and they looked clueless. I guess this is where we still miss Keane, they spent the rest of the half looking at each other instead of continuing what they had been doing, it was just a question of time before we scored.

Barca on the other hand took full advantage of that and just killed it, pass, pass, pass, pass they never let us compose ourselves from that point on, by not letting us have the ball. First 10 mins aside, it was a perfect performance from them.
Agreed. I dont think you can take anything away from Eto's goal. He had less than a second to decide were to place that ball and I thought his quick thinking lead to a excellent goal.

After that I agree Man-U just seemed to lose all grasp on the game. Baraca seen it and just used it to make Man-u look very poor. Great game well worth watching though.
