I was there: Remembering the Iniestazo and Wembley 2011

So, in light of a lack of football, I’ve decided to plunder the memory bank and talk about two games that I was fortunate enough to see live, and the surrounding experience.

There’ve been a good deal more matches that I’ve attended, but I’d say that Chelsea v Barca in 2009 and the Champions League final of 2011 have given me the two biggest thrills, and for different reasons.

May 6, 2009 was a warm and sticky day in the English capital. I spent the majority of it on a boat on the River Thames.
