We respect Milan a lot, as well as we respect Arsenal. Big clubs, big names, big teams. I was at Nou Camp on wednesday, and from my position in the stadium I watch Sheva pushing Puyol at the beggining of the play, but I don't know if it was a powerful enough push to bring down puyol. Puyol is the kind of player who never cheats, so I think that Sheva pushed him a little and the he slipped and falled. It was a legal goal? I really don't know.
Any team could have won, to me it was a final. Milan showed cold blood and expertise and had their chances. Barcelona played very well on the first half, creating very good chances, and at the second half defended well.
I don't know why they say barcelona's weak point is the deffense, being the spanish team with less goals against for 2 years now and having very few goals against in europe. And Milan is not a deffensive team, that's what I saw at Nou Camp, I liked their offensive play overall, so topics about italian football and spanish defenses don't work here.
Hope we beat Arsenal, I'm going to Paris!
I also have a lot of respect for Arsenal. I lived for 3 months in Elephant Road, IN FRONT of Highbury, and watched some matches there, years and years ago, and then Arsenal became my favourite English team. Cheers to all arsenal fans, we meet at St. Denis!
