Barca finish season with magical 100 points

Eric Abidal

Eric Abidal says goodbye to his teammates and fans

FC Barcelona finished the season with the magical 100 points to round off a difficult year which has been both trying on the club and the fans for various reasons. Tito Vilanova has begun an exceptional year with the Catalan club despite his health problems and his absences.

Barca beat malaga by 4 goals to 1 and the goals came from David Villa, Cesc Fabregás, Andrés Iniesta and Martin Montoya. It was an emotional game too, with farewells from Málaga’s Manuel Pellegrini who is off to the Premier League with Manchester City, David Villa, who scored his last goal for Barca, and to top it off, the emotional goodbye from Eric Abidal at the end of the game.

Barcelona played a very relaxed and comfortable game with Xavi and Iniesta playing freely in midfield. Villa, Cesc Fabregás and especially Pedro, enjoyed ample occasions to justify the score line and the win marked Barca’s 18th at home. This is another record as Barca has only drawn once at home all season.

The Catalan team easily and quickly resolved the match. In fifteen minutes they had scored three thanks to the efforts from Cesc and Montoya from outside the box. Before the changes in the second half, Andrés Iniesta had already put his team 4 goals up with a shot placed into the top corner from 20 yards out.

Weligton was the highlight of the Malaga team effectively setting the offside trap to prevent danger to his goal. In attack, Isco was rarely to be seen before Saviola replaced him.
Only Bayern Munich and Real Madrid have managed to slow Barca down this season with the loss to the Germans accelerating the arrival of Brazilian hot shot, Neymar.

Neymar da Silva Santos Júnior is to be presented to the fans at the Camp Nou today at 18:45. Without doubt, it is one of the events that the Barca fans are most looking forward to as this season draws to a close.
