david villa scored a hattrick in the last 10 minutes of the game against bilbao. 10 minutes of madness for bilbao, 3-0 for valencia.

frankly, i dont think we can catch barcelona.

it's amazing how juve's 14 pt lead is now cut to only 3 in italy.

anyway, back to valencia. villa's 3rd goal was stunning. regueiro cut in from the left, then played the ball to mista, mista could have scored, he squared it to villa for villa's hattrick. how unselfish!

villa is turning out to be the signing of the season for valencia. maybe in the la liga too. he just keep scoring. no wonder mista is on the bench.

regueiro is also turning out to be a gem, in vicente's absence. but i still hope vicente will come back quickly and play in the world cup, though that looks highly unlikely now. and now he has to come back to win back that left wing position from regueiro.

and of course it's the dream final in paris, come may 17.

heard that we didnt play well, we were defending all the way against villareal. then lehmann saved riquelme's penalty. my first thought was: it's god's will.

anyway, it wasnt the way i wanted us to go into the final; we should have done it with more class. but i thought about what ruud krol said: we could play every kind of football. we could play tough. we could play technical.

think about it.
