FC Barcelona would belooking at a huge 10 point deficit with League leaders Real Madrid by the
end of tomorrow night after going down 3-2 against osasuna. If the Villareal draw had put a huge
blow to Barca's title hopes, then this defat at Pamplona virtually ends the league hopes. If Real
madrid win against Levante at home tomorrow, the lead at the top will climb to a huge 10
points.
FC Barcelona booked their place in the Copa Del Rey final with a 2-0 victory against Valencia at
Camp Nou. Goals from Cesc Fabregas and Xavi gave Barca a bit of nervous victory. Now the final will
be against Atletic Bilbao, between the two most successful teams in the Copa Del Rey history.
FC Barcelona was adjudged the World Team of the Year by the Laueres Award comittee, in a grand
ceremony held in London. This is the first time FC Barcelona is winning the prestigous award, which
in some circles is called "The Osacr of Sporting World". Club president Sandro Rosell received the
award for Barca.
FC Barcelona took a good step towards proceeding to Copa Del Rey final with a 1-1 draw at
Mestella. Considering how tough we have found recently in Valencia, this draw is as good as a win -
especially because of the away goal. In the 27th minute Jonas put Valencia ahead, but Carles Puyol
equalised for Barca in the 36th minute.
FC Barcelona could have handed over the Liga title to Real Madrid unofficially after drawing
away at 17th placed Villareal. The lead at the top of the summit is seven points which could be too
much for our boys to climb. Already with a very depleted side, we weren't helped by Guardiola's
decision making all night.
Thank God, It's over, that definitely was the reaction of every Barca fan once they heard the
final whistle. I don't remember that in recent history we coming out with such a reaction towards
the end of any match. That was the way we performed in this match, may be that's how they
performed.

FC Barcelona secured a semi-final birth in this season's Copa Del Rey after knocking out holders
Real Madrid with a sensational 2-2 draw. Barcelona who went into the break with a 2-0 lead had to
hold off a sensational fightback from Mourinho's boys to secure the semi-final birth. To an extent
we had to say that we were lucky after putting up the worst defensive display of the season, and
courtesy of the fact that Madrid missed a number of chances.
FC Barcelona would be looking to finish off the good job done at the Santiago Bernebeu last
Wednesday when they meet Real Madrid at the Fotress Camp Nou. In the league Camp Nou has been an
un-penetrable fotress till Betis broke it a week before. This season Barca has scored 67 goals at
Camp Nou and conceded just 6(2 in Super Copa, 2 in La Liga and 2 in Champions League).
