Well coached game by Milan, not so well by Barcelona. It is one thing to be the best team in the world. It is entirely something else to be unable to adapt to a situation and change your style of play. Laughable as it is, Barcelona would have been better with Peter Crouch out there than Messi yesterday. Nobody, no matter how good, was going to dribble or one two through that Milan defense, they needed to collapse it with long balls and play off the resultant havoc. Milan's coach set it up to force Barcelona to do something they lacked the players to do.
