Barca was not frightened to attack San Siro

Several were the incentives that added spice to the Milan-Barcelona to San Siro. One, the key to the Catalans: win and seal their ranking first in his group. Two, to dedicate the win to Tito Vilanova was operated emergency and could not be accompanying Pep Guardiola. And three, the curiosity that aroused a possible reunion between Barca coach and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who already left while making broth to coach, in recent weeks, with the publication of his biography, he had added fuel to an already incendiary relationship.

Well, the three above purposes, the club left Italy with the most important under the arm. The ticket to the knockout, where whatever happens on the last day before the Bate of Champions, will be local in the back, and an incontestable victory (2-3) in tribute to his coach, which the UEFA and controversial laws prevented tribute just before the start of the crash. There was no exchange of glances, let alone handshake between Barça and striker Milan, needless did. Ibra scored one of the goals, but Pep took the three points.

But if there was a figure that shone above the rest in the box game was Xavi. The player, in its register of todocampista, participated in the three goals he scored his team handed the game and was charged with his lucidity, turn off the sparks of Allegri. The first part was a real treat for the audience. The visitors came back with three, a declaration of intent. And the play did not turn out too bad for the Blaugrana, and that tactical picture, as given in the matches at Camp Nou, he used to cause many problems above, but not painless.

A pass from Messi Keita, quarter hour, ended with a cross from the left flank of Mali. Xavi, who was about to finish, saw his former teammate Van Bommel scored an own advancing to 0-1. However, the meeting took tints of give and take. Victor Valdes had to be used to fund, although the error was unforgivable Robinho into the empty net seconds before Ibrahimovic equalized achieved. The Swede hit left-handed a pass from Seedorf incombustible to place the 1-1 at 20 '.

Just a minute later, Robinho and Messi emulated from the goal box, sent to the wood a little singing. Was a constant back and forth from area to area and can go either way. The risky scheme facilitated visitor arrivals Abiatti framework, but Milan provoked approaches to Valdes. It was not to get excited about the referee, Wolfgang Starks, a type of which many are wondering what has merit to continue managing meetings of such caliber. The last night was come up with a penalty, not to point out the odd course and warn the wrong person.

Within half an hour, the maximum penalty of braid Nesta said on Xavi. Of course, admonished Aquilani. Double error in less than a minute Messi, despite the paradinha that forced him to repeat the shot from the penalty spot, did not miss. With the 1-2 and a chance more from Villa to sentence the match, players are left to rest. Of course, in resuming a clear penalty on Cesc (at least as clear as previously noted), forgot pitarlo, compensating in some way, his decision in the first act.

Massimiliano Allegri introduced a novelty after passage through the house, got a duck at the expense of Robinho. However, Kevin-Prince was the one who signed the goal of the night. When the club cuddly, the largest of Boateng pulled from a hat a highway magical checkered Abidal left to hammer a shot that Valdes could only see into (53 '). A heel in the form of assistance which meant the same, although the Barcelona had not said it all.

In fact, ten minutes were enough to connect with Xavi Messi, who served as the Argentine in the area to sign the third of the night overcome with the right hand to Abiatti. There was time to see Peter in action, having recovered from his injury, and that another approach to see some more without success. Barcelona won the San Siro to finish top of Group H, with '10 'as top scorer Mario Gomez with no concern facing the last game against the BATE Borisov the same week a classic against Real Madrid in the league. Bravo!
