Day Two of the Champions League’s Round of 16

2 — 1
Arsenal v Barcelona

My Barca lost to Arsenal L  Unfortunately the Gunner’s two goals in the last part of 2nd half ensured their victory.  Pique is suspended for the 2nd Leg, I hope Puyol has recovered by then.  It was a great game to watch.  At least Barca had one away goal.

Ashravin, scoring the final goal, cinching Arsenal’s win
