Summary
Hola!
FC Barcelona are in London tomorrow to face Chelsea in the Champions League. Their rivalry goes back a long way and this is the origins story, as told by Jody Morris.
Jody was a member of the Chelsea midfield which took on Louis Van Gaal's Barca team in April 2000. In fact, Jody faced an as yet unknown Xavi in the first leg - a 3-1 in for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. The Chelsea man then went toe-to-toe with Pep Guardiola at the Camp Nou, with the home side claiming to a 5-1 win over the 10-man London side.
Listen to Jody as he takes you back to those nights and describes the experience of facing famous names, stepping out at the Camp Nou, and taking on Pep. By the end I promise that you'll be more than ready for the next instalment of this rivalry.
Enjoy!
Graham
