Welcome to BBC Xtra English.
Today Kaz and Sam talk about the 'football' and last night's Champions League final between Barcelona and Arsenal.

Last night's final match between Barcelona and Arsenal ended with Barcelona winning.

The tense build-up before last night's kick off was captured in htis headline from BBC Sport: 'Countdown to Barcelona v Arsenal'. The match was a big moment for Arsenal because it was the first time in their history that they've got through to the Champions League final. Before the match itself Barcelona were tipped as favourites.

BBC sports presenter Garry Richardson talks about the two top players- Henry playing for Arsenal and Ronaldinho for Barcelona. He called it a 'high quality match in prospect'. But there was one issue that cast a cloud over the game. He said it was a shame that so many Arsenal and Barcelona fans would be denied the chance of seeing the match live in the Paris stadium.

Another headline from the Guardian says: 'Europe holds its breath for a final of finals'.

I did not watch the match, simply because the match broadcasted exclusively in coded channels. I and the same as many others can not afford the high costs of subscribing with such channels. Footbal now is only for the wealthy people !!!

Yes, I watched the Match. I believe that Arsenal was losing the control on the middle of the playfield during the 2nd half, all players came back to the defense area, I think that is a big mistake. If you need to defend something you should play as an attacker as the gnome "the best way for defense is attack finally, who is play the best he will win the game.

It was an exciting match but I was shocked that Ronaldinho was such a star in that match. It was the fault that the goalkeeper committed that deprived Arsenal from the cup. The sustitute goalkeeper was afraid of the match that's why he couldn't prevent the two goals who were to a great extent his responsibility. Well good luck next time.
