All I had to inform me was the updates on ESPN and it looked like a bloodbath. I know there's never been any love lost between the two teams, but from what I gather, Madrid let all the frustration from the season out on this game....
Good luck with Manchester United.... It would have been noce to see Raul play against his old team in the finals, but alas, neither team is going to make it....

Why not? You don't think Barça would be able to outplay Manchester Ud.?
A bloodbath? Mmmh not really. I have seen much worse. And as a R. Madrid fan you should know that's really their style. They know they can't beat Barça so they play rough and hope they don't get many yellow cards. Then they complain they always have one player kicked out of the game but it's only reasonable seeing the blatant fouls they make.
And yes, it's true that people outside of Catalunya say Nou Camp. To me Camp Nou sounds better but they're both used.
