Wet surface -- Henry wincing in pain after cutting back. Villarreal has had a few chances, but while this match is technically nice, it isn't very entertaining or creating opportunities.
Nihat with a wicked direct kick that is pushed out for a corner...game over. Zzz. Barcelona have the advantage on the vuelta at home...
So how'd Rossi look? I read Valdez had a nice stop on Rossi. Is that correct? Does he look like he has regained his fitness? Last time I saw him (when he hit the crossbar with a great freekick a few weeks back) he looked pretty sharp, but not as involved as he was before he hurt his knee, which I am guessing is a bit fitness related.
He was sharp, and Hudson thought he should've capitalized a bit more. Overall it was a good game by Villarreal but chances couldn't be created.
I saw some good moments from him and I wasn't watching very closely. He definitley was one of the standouts.
