Best side won it, and Iniesta was head and shoulders above anyone. Wastes very little, picks key passes and dictates games. He and Xabi controlled the midfield and were given far too much time to dictate and they made both goals. I don't recall the Barcelona defence been stretched at all after the first ten minutes and the only reason they didn't absolutely murder Man U was because they had the Arsenal disease of trying to walk the ball into the net.

I think tonight showed just how good an effort Chelsea's was over 2 games to almost prevent them scoring. Tonight could easily have been a couple of goals worse for United.
