Julio Cesar: 7.5
A roaring save on Messi, JC was there to put it wide for a corner. Bullying Barca all game long, from the air to the ground. Was great on Xavi at the end.
Maicon: 7
One hundred percent a full-back, zero incursions on the wing, and it does not happen to him very often. Closes, rams, sweeps. He shows that he can defend.
Lucio: 8
Samuel was the scepter of the match. But what a pairing this has been. It seems like Collovati and Scriea at the World Cup 1982.
Zanetti: 7.5
On the left, with calmness of the captains who know how to sail stormy seas. Never out of place, never a moment of panic. Indestructible.
Cambiasso: 8
As when he's running he also takes on many roles. First, a Cambiasso at the midfield. Second, a Cambiasso as an freely addition to a back four.
Thiago Motta: 4
A venial hand, but clearly, and Busquets demonstrated the art of diving. Ingenious.
Eto'o: 7.5
Sacrificed himself in the role of a winger, first on the right and then the left. He presses, doubles and shortens like a boy in the mud. An example.
Sneijder: 7
He was not in top form so it was not the usual Sneijder, but he fought and ran until he got subbed out. When the team was in 10, he played at the center forward and his job was high pressing and holding the ball.
Chivu: 7.5
A surprise start after the forfeit by Pandev. Playing on the left side to take care of Dani Alves, and then transformed into a great assistant in the midfield for Cambiasso.
Milito: 7.5
Many footballers should take Milito as their example. An champion who recoils and defends with humility for someone who is not known for their defense.
Cordoba: 6.5
Muntari: 6.5
Let's be honest. The fans were afraid of him making one of his madness mistakes, but this time, he uses his head, he would never enter the game without composure.
Mariga: 6.5
Baptism of fire for this young man from Kenya. A few important minutes, without yielding the emotion. He has a great future ahead.
Samuel: 8.5
Please put in the CD of Pink Floyd, to the track "Another brick in the wall" and imagine Samuel, The Wall, Il Muro, who was the magnificent brick against the splendid orchestra of Guardiola. He did not allow anything to escape him, not even a blade of grass. Monumental.
Mourinho: 8
Tactical masterpiece, and one must distinguish between defense to vengeance. Mou was on his toes in the second half to keep Barca away from the door to the final. Never seen a team with so much intensity.
Overall: 9
In ten men for over an hour at the house of Barca. They just wrote a piece of history.
