Barca get way too much protection. That last tackle by Valencia was no way a foul. The natural instinct of this lot is to go down and the refs seem to buy it by default. It's a huge advantage.Quote:

I think it's a natural instinct of most players now, really mainly because they know they'll get the decisions.Quote:

Horrendous miss by Messi
Messi went for the backheel, Dani Alves seemed to take an eternity on deciding what to do. Not sure why Messi went for the backheel actually.

Nah, well, kinda. I'm more saying refs are stoopid. Or rather, UEFA/FIFA are.Quote:
