well i thought overall chelsea were the much better hard working team.

Barca to me didn't show that match, just little glimpes at the end.

People where raving on about Messi and i thought he didn't a too much of a good match and really didn't show to much.

Ronaldoinho again only showed some skill in the match.

Seems to me chelsea got the upper hand of the match and set it as a fast closeing down attacking match which barca couldn't handle and really limiting them.

Sadly players where getting tired at the end and since barca didn't have to much attacking they could do it at the end.

I hate chelsea alot but there were the better team and i hope my pompey get a goal or two in our next match against em.

Also if i was a coach i would really question the coaching of messi he's young and he really lays it on thick, to me that is just going to ruin part of his future, i would expect the likes of him to just get up and just play footy not laying on the ground sulking and acting.

I think both Arsenal (my team!) and Liv will progress. Chelsea will bow out. They lost at home while Barca have 2 away goals.

I must say though Del Horno was deserving of a red, a yellow would have sufficed. It was just a clumsy challenge.

Great match between Barca and Chelsea. Messi was fantastic for the first half hour. Ronaldinho was almost invisible until the last 20 minutes. Once Chelsea took the lead, Barca showed what they were really made of, non-stop assaults on the Chelsea goal. They deserved to win the match.

The first round of second-leg matches tonight saw Barcelona, Juventus and Villareal go through to the quarter-finals of the Champion's League, at the expense of Chelsea, Werder Bremen & Rangers.

Results:

Chelsea 1-1 Barcelona (2-3)

Juventus 2-1 Werder Bremen (4-4)

Rangers 0-0 Villareal (2-2)

Juve were really lucky to get through. If not for a goalie error, they would have been out. They and Villareal got through on the away goals rule.

Arsenal vs. Real Madrid and Liverpool vs. Benfica tomorrow. Another night with less sleep. Can't wait. :D

By the way the scores should be ...

Barcelona 1-1 Chelsea

Juve 2-1 W. Bremem

Villa Real 0-0 Rangers

(Both Barca and Villa Real were at home).

Anyways, watched the big game of the night. Chelsea very fortunate with that late penalty. Terry looked offside, and also wasn't even fouled. Good to see Barca progress, that Ronaldinho is a class player.

Watched Barcelona - Chelsea tonight, Barca deserved to win again. Its easy to say neither of both teams went out on an attacking style. But overall the Barca defence and midfield did well to stop Chealsea?s players playing their game. Ronaldinho was once again brilliant with his moves:)).

By the way the scores should be ...

Barcelona 1-1 Chelsea

Juve 2-1 W. Bremem

Villa Real 0-0 Rangers

Villa Real 0-0 Rangers incorrect it was 1-1

nice to see Chelsea and their wonderfully exciting style of play out.

I can see Chelsea manager leaving at the end of the season and the chairman buying Barcelona.

    • Honestly that feels even more useless than it did when Win11 was first released. In 2021, the uproar was somewhat justified, but only when comparing how good we've had it since Windows 7. Prior to that, a new Windows release would often require new, or very recent hardware. Windows XP wouldn't run (in any usable way) on hardware released when it's predecessor Win98 was released (let's ignore ME). It was time to shift the goal post, and the way Microsoft did that was actually ok. People have still had another FIVE YEARS of free software support with Windows 10, and those of us who want to have used these tools to bypass the limitations, all while understanding the impacts that may have. Most laptops don't last 5 years (sadly), so now the youngest unsupported hardware is 9 years old, and apparently has another year of support with Windows 10. That's good. Meanwhile, understanding the impacts and limitations, I have my 2013 laptop running Win11 perfectly fine. The thing that's failing on it is the hardware, the 2.5" SATA cable/chip is failing and corrupting the SSDs I put in. Thankfully it has a functional M.2 sata drive that works fine!
    • iPhone 18 Pro drop-test video and photos leak on the dark web following a data breach by Hamid Ganji iPhone 17 Pro - Image via Apple Apple is seemingly facing one of the biggest data breaches in its history, and just a few months before the official debut of the iPhone 18 Pro series, photos, a drop-test video, a supplier list, and key phone components have reportedly been leaked by hackers. Last week, we reported that Tata Electronics, an Apple supplier and iPhone producer in India, was hit by a data breach. As a result, it was reported that more than 200,000 trade secrets and confidential documents belonging to Apple and Tesla were stolen by the ransomware group World Leaks. According to Reuters, the group has now leaked supplier lists, component details, and photos of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro models on the dark web. One of the materials leaked by the hackers is a drop-test video of the iPhone 18 Pro, which is due to launch this September. The phone is shown in a gray color and has the same familiar design we saw on last year's iPhone 17 Pro series. The device also appears to be quite durable, though it seems to be thicker than last year's model. One possible explanation is that Apple may be using a larger battery in the iPhone 18 Pro series. Moreover, Reuters says it has seen at least six documents mapping many components in the iPhone 18 Pro models to their respective suppliers, including details on chips on the main circuit board and on battery and camera components. The documents reportedly detail hundreds of parts that will be used in the iPhone 18 Pro models. A person familiar with the matter told the outlet that Apple classifies this data as sensitive and “is concerned about the documents being shared on the dark web as they relate to unreleased models.” Apple is reportedly investigating the issue but has yet to issue an official statement.
    • You do you, I've just said that it first appeared in "home" version before it will be available in "work" one. I use Edge only because it still supports MV2 uBO extension even on Android - I'll switch when they stop.
    • I imagine that was a review or something? My reviews mostly contain a lot of images and galleries, but these are all webp too, but yeah it all adds up on the page load. Would help if you were more helpful with your critique instead of bitching and moaning like a Karen 😂 Because then we might be able to fix it for you.
    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
