What a way to end another fantastic season of European football as two of the best teams in the world get ready to face each other in what seems like a gigantic clash at Wembley
More than 160 Million fans will be focusing on one major event tomorrow- The Champions League Final. And frankly speaking, there can be no other perfect final match-up when the prospect of England's best team taking on Spain's best team still lingering in the air.
Two teams with huge history, traditions and success are set to test each other's mettle at nowhere else but the so called 'Home of Football', Wembley. Pep Guardiola might have just been a 15 year old teenager when Sir Alex Ferguson took over but none of that will matter tomorrow when Guardiola and Fergie battle it out to move one step closer towards the historical achievement of five European glories.
Predicting the favorites for this highly anticipated match might seem pretty easy but believe us, Manchester United are a tactically better team than they were in 2009. Much of the attention has been given on how destructive Barca can be with their style of play but let's not remember that the Red Devils clinched their 19th Premier League title collectively as a consistent team.
It was team effort that made United superior in the race for the Premier League title and moments like their last gasp victory over Everton and Wolverhampton Wanderers does indeed prove their credentials. And we are merely speaking about the fundamental aspects of football. Manchester United have got that all.
However, take nothing away from what Barcelona have achieved this season. Automatic attention often goes towards Lionel Messi but looking at what they have accomplished as a team is simply magnificent.
Manchester United replaced the direct approach and skills of Cristiano Ronaldo with the supportive runs and predatory instincts of Antonio Valencia as well as Javier Hernandez. And for this fact alone, they should not be taken lightly.
However, Barcelona is our imminent choice when it comes to selecting a favorite. Simply down to the fact that the majority of Barca's squad a fit and ready with Lionel Messi in the form of his life. The Argentinean definitely has a point to prove, having struggled on English soil for a number of times previously.
Nevertheless, it will all come down to the battle in midfield. Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets will look to dictate proceedings but if the likes of Fletcher, Carrick and Park Ji Sung can get stuck in their faces, expect to see an open game tomorrow. Whatever it may be, Barcelona vs Manchester United is going to be elite. Bring it on!
