And it makes up for the ones not awarded in Milan ;) :p

I agree.

I mean people now just accept shirt pulling at corners.
Then why can't people give a tug in open play??? Then just hold shirts all the time.

If its a penalty to tug a shirt when a guy is sprinting for goal, then it should be a penalty if you tug a shirt of a guy diving for a header.

IMO.

aki, the penalty was given because it was in Barca favour, if it was in Milan favour I am 100% sure that he would've been ignored...especially at Nou Camp ;)

yep... and he was holding on to Busquet's shirt only to avoid going down after being wildly fouled by Puyol :p

Possibly, like -among others- the clear tug on Puyol was ignored in Milan? ;)

Barca got lucky in the 2009 semi-final. Chelsea deserved to win that time but the ref didn't have a good game.

I think Barca were very lucky to get that second penalty decision last night. One of the weakest fouls I've seen given in a long time.

And Man Utd thought they were Barcelona the other night.

Play lots of boring short passes, play some more boring passes, play some more boring passes, opposition falls asleep - score goal.

Watch out Chelsea, the little magician is coming to get you!!! ;)

Mou didn't miss the opportunity to say some words about Barca, again.

He never stops to amuse us :p :

However still think Barca deserved, but it's time referee stops to help them

you sound like Mourinho...or Ibrahimovic - if they can't win in the camp nou its everybody else's fault but not theirs.
btw the refs can't help Juve now so they have to find another team ;)
