I was there, really entertaining for a neutral. Can anyone tell me who the number 24 player was for Barca? Messi maybe? He was one of my star men along with Thuram and Ronaldinho.

Expanding on Joseph's post - yeah, the idiots spoiled it. My family and I weren't checked as we came in, and seeing there were no stewards surrounding the pitch, anyone could've brought a knife in and seriously hurt a player. Then again it's a sad state of affairs when the policing assumes everyone would be mature enough to sit and watch the match yet need to act.

The match itself was great though.

No.24 was Bojan. Check him out on Wikipedia.

He's a very promising youth player.

It has to be said that while Barça splashes out millions on consecrated stars, they do also work a lot with their own "stable".

For my money he was "man" of the match - the inverted commas are due to him not being 17 till next month!!!

Messi didn't travel to Scotland.

Glad you enjoyed it, AFC. I just found it strange it being a friendly with such a big crowd. Football is so popular because it is competitive and competitiveness gives it an edge. Maybe this was a game for the neutral but I don't really enjoy mismatches unless Celtic or rangers are getting hammered. Or England.
