For the second season running Barcelona were frustrated by English opposition in the UCL semi-finals as a determined defensive effort from Chelsea earned a goalless draw in Catalonia.

Barcelona 0-0 Chelsea

It was the first stiff test faced by so called unstoppable Barca, but Chelsea put on a determined performance to hold Barca at bay.
Barcelona created enough chances or should we say half chances to score at least a goal, but some good work from Cech and a good performance by back four denied Barca, infect best chance fell to Drogba when he was put through by Marques back pass.I have to say that even though chelsea put on a great defensive display but "Chelsea are not through yet". Barcelona can go to stamford bridge and capable of scoring a goal or two.

Anyway, unfortunately I saw this boring game and all my hopes of a spectacular game were dashed, lets hope second leg can provide some magical footabll by both teams.
This tie is very much still alive!
