The barcelonismo clings to nail burning Messi before the United Cristiano Ronaldo of

The Champions and the Golden Ball as a backdrop for an exciting fight

Barça against Manchester Messi against Cristiano Ronaldo, Ball Bronze Ball against Silver, 20 years against 23. One means hope, the other is the cherry. This raises the star of the semi-final Champions League. Two giants of world football arrive at Camp Nou to the great quote from Wednesday in an entirely different situation. The Barça has already thrown the League Cup and has left a string of exciting cracks on the road. The Manchester aims to double League-European Cup with Cristiano Ronaldo piece of luxury in a spiral of luxury in which everyone working in a single direction. Not only is curious, even paradoxical: in August anyone could have opted for that Description fit perfectly into the profile of a team with Ronaldinho, Henry, Etoo, Deco and Messi in its campus. At the moment of truth, this Barça clings to a single player, even a player who has just emerged from an injury to dream with the finals in Moscow.

The great year for Christian

Messi has become the burning of barcelonismo nail. But beware, Messi is much nail. There can spread discouragement absolute when a striker of that caliber Plays on your computer and not on his opponent, even if the opponent also has equipment and, above, Cristiano Ronaldo. Without getting into comparisons, how many fans Barça to change by Christian Messi?

True, the season playing for the moment in favor of the Portuguese Old Trafford. In its fifth year in Manchester is touching perfection: 28 goals in 31 matches in the Premiership, 7 in eight Champions League, 7 of their last 8 partidosgoleando ...

Data Are there, but nobody can win with Messi. Only injuries have prevented Leo complete this year a progression that was absolutely paint to be as good as that of Christian. Its nine goals in the League and six in Europe certainly would have been many more in the absence of muscle injuries.

Luckily for Barça, Messi has arrived in time to go to the team on his back, or at least try. The club will play two matches on the season, three if all goes well. And Messi will be there, ready to pull a stranded car, which the League has retained only 9 of the last 27 points at stake. The hope is that such precedents parties are not always determinative.

The good news is that the versions of this year's superbueno, really. Last year was fair, but this year's tremendous (...). My digital version is better than the real one, do not forget. "

Cristiano Ronaldo, as noted in the filing of its 2008 game "is much more direct in virtual version Because whenever I will go for the goal "is" a bit strange "making oneself with the controls, although at the same time boasts overcome" in the concentrations to Rooney and Pique, who are good. "

Now comes the real battle, not virtual. There is a European Cup at stake and who knows if the next Golden Ball, and many anticipate for Cristiano Ronaldo. But even before Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi is much Messi. Eating Leo!
