And now for the lighting round of Jeopardy, in which we celebrate the highlights and lowlights of Barcelona's 3-1 win over Arsenal in the Champions League. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the game, in Jeopardy the answers are given first, and the contestants try to guess the question:
A. This journey is familiar, yet is also one of the world's longest trips.
Q. What is traveling from Barcelona to London, after your team has been ousted from the Champions League yet again?
___________________________________
A: As a young man, he dreamed of playing for the Blaugrana. Then, for a brief and bizarre moment deep in first half stoppage time he actually did, as his giveaway on a too-fancy-for-its-own-good backheel gave the first goal to the home side just before half-time.
Q. Who is Cesc Fabregas?
__________________________________
A: This Swiss native was either on the take, just plain incompetent, or both, and his soft red card on Robin Van Persie was most likely ordered by none other than Michel Platini himself to make sure Barcelona advanced to the next round of the Champions League.
Q. Who is referee Massimo Busacca?
___________________________________
A. This was Arsenal's most effective offensive play of the entire evening.
Q. What is a Barcelona own goal?
___________________________________
A. None.
Q. What is the number of shots Arsenal had on goal last night?
