Barcelona wins Easter Tournament

Despite recent form and struggles in the Batalla De Titanes Super League, SB and his Barcelona team brushed aside all recent criticism and produced a gold medal performance to edge out arch rivals Real Madrid to this seasons first Miscellaneous tournament trophy.

In a competition which featured 5 of Europe's best teams, Barcelona (SB), Real Madrid (JM), the hugely disappointing Bayern Munich (PM), PSG (MP) and the surprise packets Liverpool (SP) - it always appeared obvious that the final would consist of the overwhelming favourites - Barca and Real Madrid.

The final went the way of the Catalans this time - a dubious penalty late in the first half the major talking point of a match which probably failed to live up to expectations.

But Barcelona couldn't care less - they win the Easter Tournament and more importantly claim 200 FPA ranking points, while runners up Real Madrid will take home 100.

Therefore, as things stand at this present time - Barcelona are the current number 1 team after the tournament victory.
However this will most certainly change when play in the Super League resumes - as it is Real Madrid in the box seat to claim a 2nd successive title.
