Barcelona (FCB).- The CIHEFE has looked back over the first decade of the century and totting up its points has given Barça 1,630 against second placed Real Madrid with 1,482.

FC Barcelona have taken a point from their visit to the animated Parken Stadium in Copenhagen in which they hit the woodwork three times. Messi opened the scoring in a game that sees Barça stay top of their group table.
Barça face Copenhagen this evening at 20.45 h in a game to decide the leadership of Group D of the Champions League. A win for Guardiola’s men would virtually ensure classification.

Messi missed the trip to Ceuta in midweek and he stressed the importance of a week of training at the Ciutat Esportiva for a number of the senior players: “it’s been a good week for working out and recovering our physical fitness”, he...
