Given that in the first match Lyon were unlucky not to come away with the win, I was actually quite amazed at how easily Barcelona carved through them like a slab of fluorescent-yellow French butter that had been left on the kitchen bench all night long. I was also amazed at how Pep Guardiola kept some tricks up his sleeve and that he wasn’t tempted to pull them out… for instance, I heard Robocop was on standby just in case Henry, Eto’o and Messi weren’t an effective enough strike force, but then once Henry scored his brace and reassured the citizens of Barcelona that they would be ensured a safe passage to the next round of the competition he used his embedded wrist-phone to call off any assistance by Robocop… don’t believe me? Watch the replays below and you’ll see it for yourself!
