has been poor by his standard

Far from poor imo. Been a constant threat.

Can't see Vidal finishing 90.

Im surprised he hasnt been sent off tbh

I think he has been ok. It is impossible to shine when the other team play deep block with 8 player behind the ball all the time

Messi in old man mode... not feeling it. Brilliant ball to set up the goal, another amazing pass played into Neymar's path right in front of goal but he couldn't reach it. Nice dribbling attempt at the end. But he's just been walking around, playing short passes to the nearest man for the most part. Either he's not fully fit or he's been having a good time the past week. He was so energetic against Bilbao.

Iniesta with a moment of magic on the big stage yet again. Love that guy.

Juve lucky not to be trailing by two or three goals. Incredibly sloppy play as well. Midfield is not functioning. Only dangerous when striking from distance. They could get a goal from it though.

I can't remember this ref having excellent games. Loses the plot some way or the other all the time I see him.

Suarez and Neymar performance are much better than him in the first half imo.

Juve stopped pressing after 5 mins or so

Marchisio

The only thing worth watching in this match. Can't stand Barça and while I don't exactly hate Juve (I like them to a small, small, small stretch) they're still losing this.

Pogba has been okay, Vidal a nightmare. Finals aren't the most ideal places to judge players and I don't do it, but they could have both played better.

Pirlo has been played out of the match and Barcelona attack is (unfortunately) a joy to watch.

Bleh... I'll stick to only appreciating the most beautiful man ever born to earth.

Noticed that too. Very strange. Maybe because of fear after conceding.

the early goal killed them and left them lost and nervy... hope they can pull a RM from last season. Difference is, they don't seem to have the attack answer...

Marchisio

He is prettier than a lot of women. His wife included.

[Viper22 2,418]

Cannot see Barca keeping a clean sheet. For all their attacking ability they don't have a great back 4. Juve still have a chance.

Come on Juve!!!

[Spike 12,049]

OOOOOH MORATA

I KNEW IT

I KNEW HE'D SCORE

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,742]

Heart by Juventus.

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Bang.

[Madmax 9,219]

That goal's all down to Buffon.

Well i'm claiming to be a psychic from now on. Come to me with every concern.

[Barbara 15,149]

As I said earlier... Marchisio

Moratita too
