Delaney: UEFA simple celebration
There was confetti, players dancing in joy and a trophy held high for all to see. The FC Barcelona players could give any American team a run for its money in post-game celebration.
The scene in Rome's Olimpico Stadium after FC Barcelona defeated favored Manchester United 2-0 in the UEFA Champions League Final was beautiful in its simplicity.
Just like Barcelona's second goal, scored in the 70th minute off the head of Lionel Messi on a perfectly placed serv from midfielder Xavi. Manchester United dominated the first 5-6 minutes of the match. Once Sameul Eto'o scored on Barcelona's first quality chance in the 10th minute, the game belonged to the Spanish club.
French forward Thierry Henry held the grand trophy on his head. With medals around their necks, the Barcelona players posed for a team photo, showed off the cup to their fans and danced.
I wonder if any of them are going to Euro Disney?
