    The final is one game, at the Mestalla.

    Oh I am very confused because a lot of websites are showing two fixtures for the final and some are only showing one. If the first one ends in a draw to they play a second leg?:confused:

    Extra time and penalties, I think.
    As for the date, it was going to be on Saturday 19th but they moved it forward because they decided they didn't want it the night before Easter.
    Unlike here, the date and venue in Spain seem to be fluid and are normally set when the finalists are known.

    Aah thanks, that makes much more sense. Couldn't believe that Barcelona were going to play 2 games in 2 days :)

    So who is going to be the happier man after tonight? Carlo or Tata??

    I think that Real will win, and I hope that Bale scores the winner, as I like to see Brits abroad doing well!

    I think Real will win tonight.
    Barca, like Man Utd, need a season where things don't go as well to get things in perspective.
    Arsenal need the same thing i feel.

    Ronaldo is a huge miss but Real can't reply on him all the time. It could be 4-4 if they play like they did a few weeks ago.

    I think Barcelona will win, but it will be close, maybe 2-1 or 3-2.

    What a goal from Gareth Bale! The run-up and the finish.

    It was outstanding. And the barca player tried to bodycheck him as well! That's a goal that deserves to win the CL final, let alone the Copa del Rey.

    Well done Real. Extra bonus to do it without Ronaldo too. Gareth Bale on the way to fully justifying the transfer fee and still in the CL and La liga title race. Tasty.

    Great run from Bale - doesnt look like he'll beat the defender to the ball but he skins him so easily, great night for me Bale scoring the winner, city dropping points and Arsenal back in CL position. :D

    What a goal by Bale!

    Pace, skill, and a finish!

    He has to be up there for Spanish player of the season, to do what he has in his first season over there is extraordinary!

    I think that's an exaggeration. For the money paid, he's done what is expected of him.

    But it was great goal. I'm pleased for the Madrid team.

    I do wonder though if it's Real only trophy, will Anchelotti keep his job in the summer? I personally wouldn't mind a change but if he adds to the trophy collection, i'm willing to overlook his short comings and give him another season.

    Yes it was a huge fee, (it is still up for debate as Real say one figure and Spurs say something a bit lower), but to come in to a new club in a new country, not speak the language fluently, and score nearly twenty goals, and have a similar assist count, is still some going in my book!
