What a player, what a team
To play that way must be the dream,
Of any boss or player who
Delight in our game through and through,
They made our ´Champs´ look poor and slow
That´s not the case, as we all know,
But what impressed me most of all
Was how they played without the ball,
To chase and harry, every man
Is normally part of the plan,
Of English sides, but Barca showed
In that respect, they´re well endowed,
And once they had the ball at feet
In no time, they screwed up the heat,
The interplay at times was so
Breathtaking, Man U didn´t know,
Just where to look or where to turn
They always had more skill to burn,
Some call football ´the beautiful game´
Last night those gentlemen from Spain,
Showed just how beautiful it can be
Led by that genius, Messi,
And football when it´s played that way
Is a joy to watch both night and day,
So, worthy winners on the night
And valiant United, despite,
Meeting their match, as Fergie said
That one they couldn´t put to bed.
To play that way must be the dream,
Of any boss or player who
Delight in our game through and through,
