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:)).

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.

    • It won't perform hugely better than the 3080 unless you're VRAM limited in games. Have you tried putting new thermal pads on them 3080 and giving it a good clean to see if you can regain your temps and overclock?
    • Windows 95 offered the ability to add and edit the right click menus, on a per file type basis. This feature seems to be missing in the new file explorer. Are they bringing it back as a "new" feature?
    • It's nearly time to replace my aging Founders Edition 3080, it doesn't OC as nicely as it used to and it's running around 10c warmer than it did when I first bought it.  I don't have budget for much more than what I spent on the 3080 and locally, that means the best GPU I can manage is a 9070XT. On this basis I have a few questions: 1. At present I don't use ray tracing, if this was to change, would this GPU be an issue? 2. How does it compare on a performance basis? 3. Are the drivers worse or better than those for nVidia? 4. Linux support, is it there? 5. Anything else I should be aware of if I were to make this change? 6. Is it a good idea or shall I try and keep the 3080 a little longer.
    • What OS is that? It looks a bit like Mac OS but the command line suggests it isn't, either way I like it!
