Yessir it's the big one: Juventus Football Team FC vs FC Barcelona Football Team, in the slightly-less-disgraced UEFA's annual Champions League two-way kick-off competition. Join us for all the best, most bantankerous buildup with the lads Keith (@Me), Ian (@xXNuScarabXx) and Andy (@Gagsy). That's it, as far as I can remember. That's all of the lads.
The kick-off's game-initiation-pass (GIP) today will be at 1945 BST (GMT+1) to mark the seventieth anniversary of Benjamin Britten's 2nd String quartet in C. The game today is full of real classy touches.
It's also Barcelona legend Xavi's last ever game for them, a special occasion for which he's decided to sport the original hairstyle he wore in the first 10 years of his tenure. Another lovely touch.
Here's a picture of Neymar, Suarez, Messi and unidentified fan (L-R) from earlier today.
