SFS has taken this impressive photo from Spanish sports daily "Marca"
to celebrate with all FC BARCELONA fans around the World a historic
1-2 victory over Argentine team ESTUDIANTES DE LA PLATA to take
the FIFA WORLD CLUBS CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE 2009.
Never before - until tonight - has a European team won all the possible
titles up for grabs in one single season. In the case of FC Barcelona they
have been the Spanish Cup, Spanish League, Champions League,
European SuperCup, Spanish SuperCup & FIFA World Clubs. This makes
them the "Greatest Barcelona Team ( & possibly all time Football Team)
in the History of the game.
Getting there was extremely difficult tonight as Estudiantes had a plan
that nearly paid off. The Argentine´s were not there for beautiful play
& set up a defensive team with strict controls on the Barça midfield
players so as to cancel out their ball control. In the 36th min
Estudiante forward BOSELLI put them ahead with a great header, thus
European SuperCup, Spanish SuperCup & FIFA World Clubs. This makes
