There's definitely some snootiness about associating with football amongst a lot of the luxury goods/premium manufacturers. There is sometimes a lack of professionalism about some footballer's behaviour both on- and off-pitch, so I can understand a little of the reticence.

Definitely a deserved win for Barca, though scoring on their first attack did take a lot of wind out of Man U's sails, they'd been really up for it until then. The amount of simulation leaves a slightly bad taste in the mouth though - Messi was on good behaviour in that respect for a change, but surprisingly Puyol was at it all night - I think he must have been fatally wounded at least four times during the game... and every foul, wherever it hits, seems to injure his face... I reckon his silly hair was to blame! :) I didn't see who was made man of the match, but if it wasn't Iniesta or Xavi, they were robbed.
