Barcelona became the first team in history to win the treble, on two separate occasions, after defeating Juventus 3 v 1 in the Champions League final at the Olympiastadion in Berlin.

It was one of the best Champions League finals in recent years, and the world of football needed it, after corrupt FIFA officials dragged our great game through the dirt this past fortnight.

The ornate Olympiastadion was packed to the rafters. It was a stunning setting, and it didn’t take long for the game to live up to its surroundings. Juventus were quick out of the trap. Barcelona looked rattled. And then, like only Barcelona can do, they tippy-tappied their way into the Juventus defense, Iniesta found Rakitic in the penalty area, and Barcelona were one nil up within the first four minutes.
