Soccer Mood

I've seen some sweet soccer games in my life but it's not everyday you see two superpower house teams face off each other with one dominating as AC Milan did in the Champions League final in 1994 against Barcelona.

Milan - the most trophied team in history - was quite simply a machine. In fact, those Milanisti teams from 1989-1995 rest comfortably among the best in the annals of world soccer. The final 4-0 score didn't flatter Barcelona but the passing in that game was exquisite on both sides.

If anyone can define to me Albertini's style please email me. Loved that guy. I kinda played that way.

Some of the best teams? Leaving aside South America (Boca Juniors, River Plate, Penarol etc.), some of the best clubs in European soccer (which usually means world soccer), include Ajax and Bayern Munich of the 1970s, Juventus of the late 1970s and early 80s, Internazionale Milano of the late 1960s, Real Madrid of the mid to late 1950s, Barcelona  of the early 1990s and present, Liverpool of the late 70s, Manchester United of the late 1990s. Benfica had some good teams too.
