That was ridiculous... I wouldn't be surprised to hear they found that Ref face down in the river Thames after the game. Possibly some of the worst calls I've ever seen made in a game... How do you call that red card and how do you not call that hand ball???

Yeah, the one in extra time definitely wasn't a hand ball... I can't recall the exact time, but I believe it was sometime during the 80th minutes where the ball was clearly struck by the Barca defenders hand inside the 18 and it was a no call. Whichever team lost in the end didn't matter, both losers would have had beef with the ref. Because of the horrible officiating, Barca lost Abidal for the finals... meaning they are playing without their starting Left and Right full backs... still, Barca managed to posses the ball for the majority of the game, even when they were a man down.

oh... you were talking about the play earlier... yeah probably...
but the officiating wasn't really biased... it just sucked... it was just dreadful
however... watching Chelsea bitch about the refs is just a hoot... schadenfreude at it's best.
