How come the Nou Camp holds the best part of 100,000 and they have given Atletico 500 tickets?

That's pretty poor on Barca, buy they're pulling every trick in the book. It's win or bust for them. |

Fans generally don't travel that much in Spain but it does seem pretty tight.

BT Sport having no less than 6 - yes 6 - 'pundits' on the pitch discussing the first half of the Cup Final! Six? Why FFS?

... English "fans" who'd rather watch some Spanish game than England's major cup final. Especially ones who've been moaning about TV/FA etc devaluing the cup. |

To be fair it's a title decider against the top two with Barca needing to win on the final day of the season. You don't see that very often. The last time I saw it was when Arsenal won at Anfield in '89. Congrats to Atletico Madrid, who has done it on a smaller budget than QPR, when they got relegated last season. Sorry, but when the FA grows some balls and insist that the FA Cup winners get a CL spot, which means the PL clubs take the competition seriously from the start, then they can call it the 'major Cup Final'. At the moment, the 3rd,4th and 5th round of the cup is treated the same as the League Cup in the early rounds. Anyway, I'm watching extra time... |

I haven't watched a cup final for years...essentially coinciding with it's devaluation, teams putting out weakened sides, Man U being allowed to skip competing, final ko and time being shunted around....that sort of thing. |

To be fair, the country is a tad bigger than ours. |

Is it just me who doesn't like the way they present the FA Cup and I guess any cup at Wembley.
Captain leads the team up, they all gather at the top, the captain squeezes back past everyone to lift the trophy then passes it on.
What was wrong with Captain goes up lifts the trophy, passes to the next person and goes back down with the manager being last and taking the trophy back down with him...
