Because it's worlds best attacking team. They are most likely to get a penalty etc.
Not talking about penlties. Too much to remember, but almost every year some team get knocked out by them with very dubious calls going their way.

That doesn't explain the calls that go for their defenders.
When an attacking team that presses their opponent back to their goal all the game, gets plenty of penalty calls, its a logical thing because the entire play is there

However, Barcelona is getting favors for their own defenders. There is no excuse for that.

According to a Danish newspaper, it might be Liverpool vs Debrecen back in 2009. The away goalkeeper.
Apparently we hit the post a bunch and only won 1-0 so the fixers lost.:lol:

Yeah, just read how that GK fixed a bunch of matches by letting in certain numbers of goals. Against Liverpool he was supposed to let in more than 2 but screwed it up when Rafa got all defensive.

:agree:

The penalty call against Nesta when Milan played Farca too.
that was the 2nd time refs shafted Milan in Barca's favour - all this UEFA-Barca hand-job fest started back in 2006 when Sheva's goal was disallowed at the Nou Camp, practically handing Barca the CL final vs Arsenal. Since then some of the biggest clubs in Europe have suffered atrocious calls in their games vs Barca at the biggest stage. before that 2006 game, Barca just seemed completely irrelevant when it came to CL football.

Inter in 2010 and Chelski last year somehow survived and managed to go thru despite dubious calls in the return legs mostly thanks to favorable results in the first games.

Finally someone else shares my opinion about barca and what a horrible year 2006 was. It was the year barca stopped being as the ultimate chokers, I was laughed at tens of times every time I said barca are chokers. Pre 2006 if someone wanted to define choking you had to look at barca. The Kluiverts, Overmarses, Romarios, Rivaldos, all of them choked, even their legend Guardiola.
