The 2006 UEFA Champions League winner is Barcelona. 2-1 over Arsenal.-Once the game was 30 minutes old it seemed inevitable didn't it?-Arsenal keeper Lehman had to come out and try to stop Eto'o, and when he got sent off for taking Eto'o down I knew it was over.-The Arse worked hard for a long stretch of the match with just 10 men & got a great goal. (However, I have to say that the deliberate dive that earned the free kick that Henry put on target that Sol Campbell headed home was completely embarrassing. The guy who flopped like that, Emmanuel Eboue, should be totally ashamed of himself. I really really hate that crap. I wish the leagues would start using video replay to punish those guys. A retroactive yellow card, or a fine would stop this garbage.) -Once Barca settled down and began their surgery on the Arse defense it was only a matter of time. But I must say that both goals would have been better defended by Lehman too. Oh well. It was a really good game for about 70 minutes.-As for Arsenal's chances
