Brian wanted to do something big for his dad for his birthday this year. He was nine years old and he was sick of giving his dad stupid kid things for his birthday. When he saw how excited his dad was when he read about the soccer game he knew just what to get for his dad.

Brian explained to his mother about getting rugby tickets so he could see the game with his dad. She thought it was a wonderful idea and called the ticket hotline for Brian.
“Oh, I see, thank you anyway,” Brian’s mother said and hung up. “I’m sorry dear but the tickets are sold out.”
Brian was stunned. What would he do now?
The following day he was playing at his friend Robert’s house. He overheard Robert’s dad telling his mother about the tickets he got and wasn’t it amazing that he actually got them? Brian peeked around the corner to see Robert’s dad holding two tickets in his hand. Brian couldn’t believe it! He had to get those tickets!
As he played with Robert, Brian kept making excuses to go to different parts of the house. Finally he saw him put the tickets on the kitchen counter and leave. Without thinking about it, Brian dashed in, grabbed the tickets and stuffed them into his pocket. He did it!
Later that day, Brian’s family had a birthday party for his father. Brian pulled the tickets out of his pocket and presented them to his father with a huge smile. This would be the best gift ever. His father took the tickets and looked at them. His father’s face fell from a smile to a frown.
“The Ultimate Strippers Show-Down?” He read.
The next day Brian went to work on his month long punishment. “I am not sorry but I do wish I’d looked at the darn tickets.” Brian scooped another pile of dog poop into the bag and sighed.

In an eleven month tournament, upsets happen. Teams that were supposed to move on lose to lesser teams, which sometimes leads to an interesting, yet not inspiring, final pairing. In a tournament that features over fifty teams and five rounds, upsets are bound to happen in the UEFA Champions League tournament. While the 2010/11 Champions League tournament has seen it’s share of upset’s, it has also come down to an epic final pairing that most soccer fans were hoping for from the second that that knockout rounds were announced: Barcelona FC V. Manchester United. Not only are these the two biggest soccer teams on the planet, but arguably the two biggest sports franchises in the world doing battle on the pitch of Wembley Stadium to decide the best club team on the European continent for 2011.
