Pirlo deserved a final final *sic

Really? I thought Xavi came on and changed games in the 5 minutes he was on for! Dat control.

Its a shame (though quite right) that Xavi wont play much in this one so it wont be a true final battle, but still.

Well, if we are leading in the second half, Xavi will probably play and have time enough to wipe the floor with Pirlo's lush hair. Again.

And again.

The parallels between this and the euro 12 is fascinating. The unfenced Italian side reaching the final. The favoured German side crashing out in the semis. 2 of the greatest play makers in he last 2 decades facing off once again and it's almost like Spain vs Italy once again. If Pirlo starts I won't be surprised if Barcelona give Juve a massive hiding.
