Match Report: Barcelona 3-1 RCD Mallorca

Well now, where to start... that was one remarkable match from our gents! There were goals... spectacular ones from each of Henry, Iniesta, and Yaya Toure... there was anger... Dani, Eto'o, Xavi and Rafa all got well worked up, to the extent that Rafa had to be taken off after it really looked like he was after a red... and there was any amount of hotness, in the form of Pep's adorable reactions to the goals, Messi's engaging scowl from the stands, hugs and manpiles galore, and just the particular gorgeousness of our lads last night.

Things were a bit slow at first but by the second half the pace really picked up. We are at loss for words for Yaya Toure; he was simply amazing. And then there's Andres Iniesta; this was his first match returning from injury, and his performance made us realize just how much we'd been missing him; his goal was lovely and we're so glad he's finally back.
We're still basking in visions of Pep striding up and down the sidelines gesturing and yelling his lungs out at the players all match long—hot tempers on hot men, oh!
