well, now onto Serie A 
... at least barca won the game w/o any help from the ref
Milan were always gonna have a diff task to eliminate a strong Barca team with several key players missing and/or not being in top shape but they still had a more than decent shot until the higher powers in football decided to intervene yet again. At 1-1 Milan had the game where they wanted it to go, in a tactical sense, but that completely changed with that soft 2nd PK, which flipped the momentum in Barca's favor and took the spirit out of Milan ... a bit disappointed that the team didn't react to the adversity in a better way but better luck next year.
Would be a mistake to think that Milan went out only because of the ref as the team obviously has its limitations but in a game like this, vs an opponent as strong as Barca, decisions like the one today are always gonna be key in tipping the balance in someone's favor. Milan's shot in this game involved keeping the score in their favor for as long as possible and frustrating Barca ... they managed to do that but once Barca got the 2nd PK, that forced Milan to play the game in a way they didn't want to.
Now, go Bayern

this milan cunt on facebook making excuses as to why milan didn't win this tie, blaming it on their injury ridden squad.
"Van bommel, gattuso (useful in big games), pato obv totally injured, cassano, silva is massive! He's Milan's best player, makes huge difference."
then later mentions YEPES AND STRASSER

They are so clueless that they don't even know why they lost
Messi's a good player, but mentally he's just as big as he is physically. No character, no passion, no sportsmanship. Messi's nowhere near the moral level a grown up 24 year old should be. Maybe it's growing up in a protected Barcelona environment, maybe it's being coached ever since he was a little kid, but the guy has no personality whatsoever. Lavezzi is three times the man Messi is.
