This is probably the best time of the football calendar. There is the 1st leg of both Champions League & UEFA Cup semifinals as well as the finalization of the Round of 16 of the Copa Libertadores and domestic league matches all over the world. So much to keep track of, we here at World Cup Buzz were able to sift through all the matches and get a World Football Team Of The Week. Remember the TOW made headlines and/or played matches during the calendar week of April 27-May 3. The winner is:
FUTBOL CLUB BARCELONA
Barcelona is the World Cup Buzz Team Of The Week for their 6-2 crushing of Real Madrid on Saturday. Granted their 0-0 draw on Tuesday in their 1st leg Champions League semifinal against Chelsea wasn't impressive but in the biggest game of the season Barca came out and blasted their arch-rival in their arch-rival's house. Blaugrana responded immediately to Real's goals in a game that ended any talk of who is Spain's best team. 2 goals each from Thierry Henry and Lionel Messi in the Spanish SuperClasico massacre. The annihilation was the perfect bounce back from the disappointing CL result. For their 6-2 demolition of Real Madrid in the Santiago Bernabeu, Futbol Club Barcelona is the World Cup Buzz Team Of The Week.
