Beating Barcelona

Ferguson's United followed in Aberdeen's footsteps by beating one of the Spanish giant, in this case Barcelona, in the final of de Cup-Winner's Cup.
It was not the greatest of matches and the poor turnout by Barcelona supporters did nothing for the atmosphere. But United deserved to beat Johan Cruyff's team.
Robson slipped Hughes through and, although in evading the sprawl of Barcelona's goalkeeper, Carlos Busquets, the Welshman appeared to give himself too demanding an angle for a shot, the force and accuracy with which he struck it left helpless the two defenders striving to cover. 
Robson swigged champagne and Koeman swallowed disappointment, thats football.
