Just got home from the Arsenal - Barcelona match at the pub. My boys lost, 2-1. Despite playing a man down for most of the game, they had a 1-0 lead with about 15 minutes left, then lost the plot. 2 goals for Barca in 4 minutes. Game, set, and match.
Regardless, I'm so proud of the Gunners. This has been a very difficult year for them, dealing with numerous injuries, the loss of their talismatic captain, and the speculation regarding the future of Thierry Henry. But they never gave up and were just a few minutes away from being crowned champions of Europe. Congratulations to Barca, and now we just have a few weeks until the World Cup.
