As I was watching the first nine or so minutes of Wednesday's Champions League final, I noticed that Manchester United were running on all cylinders and looked like a threat to perhaps make things rough for Barcelona. After Samuel Eto'o scored at 10 minutes, it looked like the Catalains began to exert control over the match, and after Lionel Messi's insurance tally at 70 minutes, the Red Devils really lost what steam they had left.
This game was also a testament to the growing popularity of Europe's elite club championship here in the States.
The pressure is going to be on Fox Soccer Channel to deliver close o the numbers ESPN/ESPN 2 produced for their coverage.
