Well... good result, embarassing performance.
I'd imagine it was more of a snoozefest for neutrals than last night's. United were very solid defensively, and Barcelona weren't particularly penetrating for all their possession.
The only United player who really had a good game was Evra I thought though, he was phenomenal. The bit where Messi flicked it over his head was literally the only time he really got beaten tonight.
United probably should have had 2 more penalties, there was quite a blatant one on 30mins where Marquez ran across Ronaldo and put his arm across him, while being the last man, which should have been a penalty and a red card, and then there was Abidal's lunge in the second half which I didn't think got any of the ball. But there's no point complaining, we didn't really deserve to win.
I was disappointed we didn't have a go at Barcelona tonight, I thought they might have been there for the taking considering their recent form and the early penalty call.
And on who's better between Ronaldo and Messi, I think Messi is better at football, but Ronaldo is better overall at the moment largely because of his strength, and the fact he suffers very few injuries in comparison with Messi who misses big chunks of the season regularly...
