Barcelona
Vs.
Chelsea
2-2
Agg. 2-3
This match was for the ages. Chelsea played with 10 men since the 37th min, nobody would have guessed that Chelsea would have came back and score a goal in the injury time. Fernando Torres scored a fantastic goal in a one-v-one challenge against Victor Valdes. Though Barcelona would not stop attacking, as like the last match they could not find the back of the net and also hit the post on two separate occasions. Messi had the opportunity to score with a penalty kick; goalkeeper Petr Cech jumped on the correct direction of Messi's kick, but Messi kicked the ball far too high and hit the upper post. Having missed this chance to score many wonder if Messi felt the pressure of never having scoring on Chelsea before and this moment was far to much pressure than he was able to handle. The match ended in a 2-2 victory for Chelsea based on 2-3 aggregate. Chelsea secured the spot in the final in Munich on May 19, 2010!
