There were many titles to that game at Stamford Bridge. "El Milagro At The Bridge", "Kaiserslautern II", . The goal was yelled in all intensities, dialects, and languages due to the amazement and improbability of the feat that was was behind the Barcelona draw at the death.

Madrid's Cadena Ser narrated this goal with a rather subtle goal call, but the background was not repressed as the chaos ensued within the pressbox where they were transmissting from...



Meanwhile, RAC1 was absolutely bonkers. The network transmission went from coping with the inevitable to evoking the ghosts of Kaiserslautern back in the 1991-92season when José Mari Bakero scored in the dying seconds of the semis.



ESPN Deportes were not going to be left out of the party. ESPN Deportes Fernando Palomo made what was probably his best goal call to date. The usually potent but reserved Palomo did not hold back while his radio counterpart Jorge Ramos went on almost a two-minute monologue giving thanks to the football gods. He thanked them for being just and allowing "true football" to win over the "evils of tactics".

Ramos was also thankful for "justice being served" and the fact that "Barca want what Chelsea didn't" as well as finding victory the only way that it can be found- via the other team's goal. Very romantic, very lyrical.

If there was one that you could hear the suffering in the play-by-play man's voice, the award would have to go to Mundo Deportivo Radio. Toni Castro was on the edge of tears as he saw the Blaugrana exiting the Champions League on the doorstep of the Rome. In his voice, he willed the team on and when Iniesta's shot hit the back of the net... well take a listen.

Some of the comments that came out were borderline hysterical. "God Exists. And he roots for Barcelona." That was the comment blurted out by color guy Joan Poquí.
"For one city, for one country, for the entire culé nation," said Castro with no regard for the broadcast. With even less regard for professionalism, and yes all the comedy in the world as he barked "Gol" like 80 times. Wow! If ney-sayers believe there is no excitement in the game, they gotta listen to these guys.
