Rio Ferdinand recalls Barcelona "abuse" that "made him feel like a Conference player"


Barcelona captured their second Champions League title in three years by defeating Sir Alex Ferguson's side at Wembley. He explained: "We were here at Wembley in the final and we actually got abused that game by Barcelona, they were brilliant. "He turned and said to me “Ferdinand, Vidic, boom boom boom” [referring to the two centre-backs playing long balls all the time], honestly I felt like a conference player." Spain dominated possession for large stretches of the game, with Busquets playing alongside young Barcelona team-mate Pedri in the middle of the park. Speaking after the game, Busquets couldn't hide his disappointment at failing to take advantage of his side's dominance.
